Import error related to lookup attribute already associated with an existing relationship

I have a situation which I'd like to get some advice with to make sure I'm going down the correct path for resolution.

I have a custom entity with multiple lookups to the same parent record; similar to the way you can have many lookups to Contacts; one is Customer, one is another role, etc.  Everything was fine with this until I attempted to import it into another environment.  At that time I got this error:

  • Entity Relationships - ist_AdjustmenttoPrevCC   - Error Text - EntityRelationship [ist_AdjustmenttoPrevCC] is invalid. The lookup attribute [ist_PrevCostCode] is already associated with an existing relationship.

I googled this and found references indicating this is a problem with the same lookup being used in the destination environment.  One recommendation was to change the relationship type from 1:N to N:1.  I'm not even sure how I would do that.  The relationship type was automatic when adding a new attribute as a lookup to the parent.

Before I even try to figure that out, I'd like to confirm what is actually going on.  Does anyone have experience with this?

Thank you!
