LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method

Question

I\'m getting the following error when trying to do a linq query:

LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method \'Boolean IsCharityMatching(System.S

Answer 1

I got the same error in this code:

 var articulos_en_almacen = xx.IV00102.Where(iv => alm_x_suc.Exists(axs => axs.almacen == iv.LOCNCODE.Trim())).Select(iv => iv.ITEMNMBR.Trim()).ToList();

this was the exactly error:

System.NotSupportedException: 'LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'Boolean Exists(System.Predicate`1[conector_gp.Models.almacenes_por_sucursal])' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.'

I solved this way:

var articulos_en_almacen = xx.IV00102.ToList().Where(iv => alm_x_suc.Exists(axs => axs.almacen == iv.LOCNCODE.Trim())).Select(iv => iv.ITEMNMBR.Trim()).ToList();

I added a .ToList() before my table, this decouple the Entity and linq code, and avoid my next linq expression be translated

NOTE: this solution isn't optimal, because avoid entity filtering, and simply loads all table into memory
