Can not create master detail relationship on a custom object in Salesforce
Hello everyone,
I can not create a master detail relationship on a custom object, it shows the following error:
You cannot create a new Master-Detail relationship on an existing custom object if records already exist. You must first create a Lookup relationship, populate the lookup field with data in all records, and then change the relationship type to Master-Detail.
Anyone with suggestions? Thanks
