# Introduction Related https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/issues/15846 The root cause is that universalIdentifier is still optional in database and fallbacked when extracted out of database to standardId. But all `BaseWorkspaceEntity` and `CustomWorkspaceEntity` share the same standardId for their default standard fields `createdAt` `deletedAt` resulting in such compare result in dispatcher ```ts { "initialDispatcher": { "createdFlatEntityMaps": { "byId": {}, "idByUniversalIdentifier": {}, "universalIdentifiersByApplicationId": {} }, "deletedFlatEntityMaps": { "byId": {}, "idByUniversalIdentifier": {}, "universalIdentifiersByApplicationId": {} }, "updatedFlatEntityMaps": { "byId": { "55e1568c-eb87-4b8a-9f1b-19bbf6042f3e": { "updates": [ { "from": "Deletion date", "to": "Date when the record was deleted", "property": "description" }, { "from": "IconCalendarClock", "to": "IconCalendarMinus", "property": "icon" }, { "from": false, "to": true, "property": "isLabelSyncedWithName" }, { "from": null, "to": { "displayFormat": "RELATIVE" }, "property": "settings" } ] } } } }, "fromFlatEntity": { "universalIdentifier": "20202020-b9a7-48d8-8387-b9a3090a50ec", "applicationId": null, "id": "9c97c8bf-1f64-463c-915c-f68f41d3cd60", "standardId": "20202020-b9a7-48d8-8387-b9a3090a50ec", "objectMetadataId": "e9565126-8351-457b-b003-3ea4c6d253bc", "type": "DATE_TIME", "name": "deletedAt", "label": "Deleted at", "defaultValue": null, "description": "Deletion date", "icon": "IconCalendarClock", "standardOverrides": null, "options": null, "settings": null, "isCustom": false, "isActive": true, "isSystem": false, "isUIReadOnly": true, "isNullable": true, "isUnique": false, "workspaceId": "20202020-1c25-4d02-bf25-6aeccf7ea419", "isLabelSyncedWithName": false, "relationTargetFieldMetadataId": null, "relationTargetObjectMetadataId": null, "morphId": null, "createdAt": "2025-11-20T17:28:45.474Z", "updatedAt": "2025-11-20T17:28:45.474Z", "kanbanAggregateOperationViewIds": [], "calendarViewIds": [], "viewGroupIds": [], "viewFieldIds": [], "viewFilterIds": [] }, "toFlatEntity": { "universalIdentifier": "20202020-b9a7-48d8-8387-b9a3090a50ec", "applicationId": null, "id": "55e1568c-eb87-4b8a-9f1b-19bbf6042f3e", "standardId": "20202020-b9a7-48d8-8387-b9a3090a50ec", "objectMetadataId": "37263f48-6858-4d28-a6e1-5f7321e49c24", "type": "DATE_TIME", "name": "deletedAt", "label": "Deleted at", "defaultValue": null, "description": "Date when the record was deleted", "icon": "IconCalendarMinus", "standardOverrides": null, "options": null, "settings": { "displayFormat": "RELATIVE" }, "isCustom": false, "isActive": true, "isSystem": false, "isUIReadOnly": true, "isNullable": true, "isUnique": false, "workspaceId": "20202020-1c25-4d02-bf25-6aeccf7ea419", "isLabelSyncedWithName": true, "relationTargetFieldMetadataId": null, "relationTargetObjectMetadataId": null, "morphId": null, "createdAt": "2025-11-20T17:28:44.267Z", "updatedAt": "2025-11-21T17:17:55.057Z", "kanbanAggregateOperationViewIds": [], "calendarViewIds": [], "viewGroupIds": [], "viewFieldIds": [], "viewFilterIds": [] } } ``` ## Impact - This might be corrupting label and description of an other standard field of an other object - Race condition on latest universalIdentifier assigned in cache making the update sometime accurate sometimes not ## Fix Will be fixed by the in coming work on applicationId and universalIdentifier as required in database + upgrade command that will handle retro-comp. ( won't handle description corruption though, should be anecdotical ) https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/15911 ( handling this only for new workspace, retro comp upgrade command will be coming just after ) ## PR scope - Introduce TDD integration tests as failing - Added unit test to critical methods that might have been involved in the root cause ( still worth it to keep ) --------- Co-authored-by: guillim <guigloo@msn.com>

Does the world need another CRM?
We built Twenty for three reasons:
CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.
A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.
We believe in Open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
