Error saving custom record: "The specified internal id is not allowed."
It's been awhile since I've needed to work with Web Services and am a bit rusty.
I'm doing a quick POC with WS and have run into an error that I'm not sure what to do with: "The specified internal id is not allowed."
Basically, I'm searching for a custom record, changing one of it's fields and trying to save it back. Here is the code:
public bool FindDoctorsOrder(string orderID) { try { // Create a new search object CustomRecordSearchBasic crsb = new CustomRecordSearchBasic(); // Tell the search what type of record to look for crsb.recType = new RecordRef(); crsb.recType.internalId = "35"; crsb.internalId = new SearchMultiSelectField(); crsb.internalId.searchValue = new RecordRef[1]; crsb.internalId.searchValue[0] = new RecordRef(); crsb.internalId.searchValue[0].internalId = orderID; crsb.internalId.
