{How to} resolve The product price can’t be created because price list is currently read only

Hi Everyone,

Today i am going to share a solution for data import error.
Scenario:  Whenever you try to update the Price List Items in Dynamics 365 Sales using bulk data import.
You may face below error message: ” The Product Price can’t be created because Price List is currently read only”
To resolve this issue in my situation the “Price List” is in Inactive state.

 

So activate the Price List and then import the Price List Items into Dynamics 365 Sales.
I hope this helps
