    Look in the folder where you extracted the Salesforce github files when originally installing the extension for the file:  \testcomplete-salesforce-extension-main\src\script.sj

    Within the file is code in the this.Update logic which builds a list of fields which are considered "updateable".  You can add logic to that list builder to exclude fields from the .Push when the _metadata.fields[i].name contains "__pc", or for any other condition of field names which are throwing errors when trying to perform a .Update call to Salesforce.

    For Example:

    Changing:  if (_metadata.fields[i].updateable)

    To:  if ((_metadata.fields[i].updateable) && (_metadata.fields[i].name.search("__pc") < 0))
           

    This will allow you to exclude problematic fields.

I'm lost with the solution, but if it works, great!
