    If you do not know how to write a plugin, you could study the sample code SDK$\samplecode\cs\plug-ins\plug-ins.csproj, especially the accountnumberplugin.cs file and followupplugin.cs and readme.doc

    If you do not know how to register the plugin, you could refer the chapter "Walkthrough: Register a Plug-in Using the Plug-in Registration Tool" in sdk.

    For the basic knowledge about plugin, please refer the chapter "Plug-in Development" in sdk

    you can update the entity you register your plugin service.Update. To update the other entity you need to use the service.Retrieve method to retrieve the entity and service.Update to update the entity.

    Here is some sample code using developers toolkit.  I am using a Create method in the blog but you can use the update to update the entity.
