crm 4 dropping many to many vs disassociate RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have a very large entity with a many to many relationship. it will take less time to delete the many to many and recreate than use DisassociateEntitiesRequest

    is there any advantage between one or the other beside speed?

  • One danger of deleting and recreating the relationship is that I think it will be given a new EntityRelationshipId; this would cause problems if you export the relationship to another organisation

  • on my case I have this crm 4 site that I am migrating data from. the plan is to migrate two entities first with the migration manager and after that I wrote a code to associate it based on the two pks from the origin site. so I guess I already lost a EntityRelationshipId

    in what case this EntityRelationshipId could be used?

    cheers
