i am pushing data from SQL server using ssis into my custom entity Transaction this transaction has a lookup filed Contact and some other simple field like email amount i can successfully import data into the crm only when i push email id and amount , whenever i try to set lookup field value it require entity reference id , this is where i am stuck in our database there is no entity reference id we only have name
how can i set look up filed value if i don't have entity reference id , since it is a SQL data it has thousand of records
can i set my contact lookup filed value in crm itself based on email id like lets say i imported the data and once the data is imported into crm lookup filed value will set to that particular contact who has the email id which we imported into crm
i hope i am making myself clear please help me out
thanks
