    there is no way to convert entity to account to achieve this you have to write custom solution.

    add custom buton on ribbon for convert, put your custom logic on click of ribbon

    Hi,

    I presume you mean similar to the standard qualify lead function? If you were after a no-code solution, you could create a dialog to deactivate the custom entity record and create an account. You could then disaplay a hyperlink to the newly created account.

    Hth,

    i have a custom entity and i have an account lookup(N:1) on custom form and i want to map these fields(on custom form attrbiutes) to account when i click the account lookup and click new account  :  Instead of creating new acccount from lookup window, you can creaet a custom ribbon button on your custom entity and can write javascript there to read your custome entity field and map them to account entity and create new account.
