I have an external content type that queries a SugarCRM database. Additionally, a list queries that external content type and returns results as expected. I am working on an InfoPath form that needs to access that data via an External Item Picker. Unfortunately, I receive the following vague and useless error: &quot;An error occurred while obtaining business data by using the Picker web service. Contact your system administrator.&quot; <br /><br /> I have temporarily set permissions on the external content type such that all authenticated users can access it. (This is in a development environment with dummy SugarCRM data).<br /><br /><br /><br /> <strong>Central admin reports the following:</strong><br /><br /> External Content Type Information<br /> Name : SugarCRMContact <br /> Display Name : SugarCRM.BDC.SugarCRM.SugarCRMContact<br /> Namespace : SugarCRM.BDC.SugarCRM<br /> Version : 1.0.0.32 <br /> External System : SugarCRMLobSystem <br /> BDC Model : SugarCRMModel <br /> Crawlable : No <br /> Default Action : None <br /><br /><br /><br /> SharePoint Designer reports that I have ReadList and ReadItem as External Content Type Operations.<br /><br /><br /><br /> <strong>I have set the following in the External Item Picker Properties control:</strong><br /><br /> ECT Namespace: SugarCRM.BDC.SugarCRM<br /> ECT Name: SugarCRMContact<br /> System Instance Name: SugarCRMLobSystem<br /> Finder name: ReadList<br /> Display Field Name: ContactID<br /> Refresh on Open: Checked<br /> Picker Mode: Connect to External Data Source through SharePoint<br /><br /><br /> I am at a loss as to what could cause this error. Any leads?
