Business Contact Manager 2010:Only 80 total sales activities can be defined. Please delete other sales activities before adding another

  • Article

Symptoms

When you try to add a sales activity, you may see the following error:

Only 80 total sales activities can be defined. Please delete other sales activities before adding another.

Cause

This occurs because Hidden User Field definitions are present in the database.

Resolution

1. Download and install SQL Management Studio

2. Backup the BCM Database

3. In SQL Management Studio run the following Query

use <Database>

delete from UserFieldDefinitions where datatableid = '4' and predefinedmetadatablob <> -1

where <Database> is the name of the affected Database

4. Backup the BCM Database Again – be sure and give the backup a different name than the 

     one in Step 2!

5. Create a new BCM Database

6. Restore the Database backup from Step 4

 

Thanks & Regards
