CAUSE

This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
  • You delete an activity party for a Phone Call activity.

    Note An activity party may be a user, a contact, a lead, or an account that was listed as the call initiator or the call recipient. An activity may be any one of the following activities:

    Task
    Fax
    Phone Call
    Letter
    Appointment

  • The Microsoft CRM Deletion Service runs and removes this activity party from the Microsoft CRM database.
  • You delete the activity that is associated with the activity party that was deleted.
When the Microsoft CRM Deletion Service runs after you delete an activity party, the Microsoft CRM Deletion Service removes the activity party from the Microsoft CRM database. However, the Microsoft CRM Deletion Service does not remove the activity that is associated with this activity party as expected. The Microsoft CRM Deletion Service cannot remove the activity.
