Cannot Convert Lead to Account

[tobias]

When hitting the "Convert" button for a Lead, I get an error 500 and the following message can be found in the error log:

Espo Version is 6.0.8 and System Requirements are all green.

Any ideas?

Hello,
We did a lot of tests of the Lead Conversion module and haven't encountered this issue.
Please check whether you don't have any malformed fields in the /EntityDefs/Account.json file neither in the /application nor /custom directory.

[tobias]

Hi Maximus, I've found the EntityDefs/Account.json in /custom/Espo/Custom/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/Account.json and it is a valid json. However, I wasn't able to locate EntityDefs/Account.json in /application/Espo/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/ - can you maybe point me to the right folder?

[tobias]

Maximus sorry to bother you again, but can you maybe share other ideas about this issue?

Hello,
line 89 -> $lead = $this->getEntity($id);
line 194 -> $lead->has(...).

so id is wrong ? put a Log for see what's is ID $GLOBALS['log']->warning(...);

it's /application/Espo/Modules/Crm/...

[tobias]

item Hi and thanks for the reply. Before trying as you suggested, I wanted to update to the latest Espo version. I'm not on 6.0.9 and the error message upon Lead Conversion changed to the following:

"Error 500: Not compatible fields in 'convertFields' map."

Any idea, what could hence be the reason?

[item]

Hello,
i think.. you need to give more info :
php version
espoCrm version
database version
apache version

And always give log of error (not message on client side)

PHPversion: 7.2.5
Espo version: 6.0.9

It's an Azure Web App running on nginx.

Hi Tobias,
I had excatly the same errormessages. The problem was that I added contacts two times as multiple selection. After removing one everything worked again.
Perhaps this is helpful for you...

[Maximus]

Hi boris,
Could you provide the steps to reproduce?
Thanks.

[alexisc]

I have the same problem after upgrading from 6.0.8 to 6.0.10, if there is a solution please let me know

[2021-02-09 10:54:35] Espo.ERROR: (500) Not compatible fields in 'convertFields' map.; POST /Lead/action/getConvertAttributes; line: 198, file: /home/today/today/www/CRM/application/Espo/Modules/Crm/Services/Lead.php [] []

[tobias]

boris thanks for the hint. However, I have zero Contacts linked. I created a test lead with fake data, quite naked entity in fact. But the error still occurs.

BUT here's the solution: I removed the "Link Multiple" field from the Lead entity (https://crm.pinpoll.com/#Admin/fieldManager/scope=Lead) and presto, conversions worked again.

yuri please investigate since this filed is there by default.

[alexisc]

the solution: I removed the "Link Multiple" field from the Lead entity

I confirm this solution works

[crisztina]

Hi,

tobias , can you please show me which "Link Multiple" field you removed? I am having same problem. My version is 6.0.10.

[tobias]

The one associated with Contacts entity, since this was the link causing trouble.
