Hi All,

Can anyone tell me what to do and why this error is coming ("found a local update that is newer than this one").

Description-> I am moving my update set from DEV to TEST environment. While previewing I got this error (found a local update that is newer than this one) error count =4. Currently I have accept the errors and committed the update set successfully and also changes has been reflected in test environment.

Can anyone tell he how to resolve these types of errors. Should I need to accepts these errors or skip these errors and also what measures Should I need to take now for future perspective  to remove these errors when I will deploy this update set to PROD.

Kindly help.

Thanks,

Utkarsh

Hi Utkarsh,

This type of error comes if you or someone has moved an Update Set earlier which has an Update of the same record, maybe due to wrongly capturing an Update in different Update Set.

You have to check the local Update first to validate that your version is the newest one then Accept, but if your version is an older one and the newer version is already there then you can skip the remote Update.

Hi Utkarsh,

 

Reason being ther would have been an update that would have been done in the environment where the updates were moved & thus conflicting. In cases like these there is an option to compare the version which thus would give a clearer understanding whether to Accept or Skip the updates.

Hi Jaspal,

Thanks for your quick response. Can you please explain.

There is option available "Compare with Local" .After clicking this there are two table (local update and Remote update). So in which I need to check the version. There is option avaliable  sys Version.

So of which update i need to prefer the version(local update or remote update). 

for example in Remote update version is V2 and in local there is no version it is showing as none.

so should i need to accept this or skip this. 

for example take some scenarios->

if local update having greater version than remote update than should i need to accept or skip.

if local update having less verision than remote update than accept or skip?

 

Thanks,

Hi Utkarsh,

 

In that case you will have to make a note of the updates that are conflicting & check what is required. There may be many scenarios but we need to compare & analyze what may be possible impacts. There may be a case where you may need to skip the latest one but that again will depend on the conflict.
