I'm having a problem creating contacts as a Community User. I can create a contact without a link to an account just fine, but when I try to link an account to it, I get the error 'portal users cannot own partner accounts'.
I don't get this at all. I'm not editing the account in any way, much less trying to own it. It makes no sense not to be able to link contacts to an account if I can see the account record.
I'm having this issue in both the Napili and Sales community templates, tested in my own sandbox org and also in a dev org only used for Trailhead challenges involving Community builder.
To recreate:
- Set up a new Community with either Napili or Sales template
- Open Community Builder
- Add a Contact Object page to the navigation menu
- Log in as a Community User
- Try to create a contact linked to the same account as the community user
What is stopping me from letting my customers create contacts for their account?
