Portal testing ideas after local account deprecation

$
0
0

Hi All,

I've been told that MS have deprecated local portal user accounts for D365 portals, in the future all will be external accounts. They're still there today, but not sure how long this will be the case.

The thing is, I find local portal user accounts to be a very convenient way of testing behavior - I've previously created a number of dummy accounts, with dummy contacts holding different web roles. Its then trivial to log in with each dummy account to make sure the views and actions are the correct scope for each dummy user. What with GDPR and other regulations it's important to check the business isn't 'over sharing' the data within CRM.

Once local accounts are removed, i'm not sure how i'd achieve this as simply as i can now.

Anyone here do something similar and have thoughts on how best to approach portal testing with dummy data?

Hi,

I am retrieving all accounts data using FetchXML on a console application. When I retrieve data the Date of birth(DateTime) field retrieve is getting -1 day. e.g. If a date of birth is 19/09/1990 then on console application it shows 18/09/1990. How can I solve this problem to get the perfect date?

Thanks in advance

Apply Upgrade Solution Issue

$

Hi Everyone,

I have imported a solution into my Prod instance by using "Apply Solution Upgrade" option to delete one field, but while trying to upgrade solution I realized that the system is trying to delete some other components which are required. Don't know why it is trying to delete the other components but those are required, may be some one removed (not deleted) those components from the solutions in Dev. Now I want to abort the solution upgrade process but I have 2 solutions in my Prod instance. My question is can I delete the "_Upgrade" solution from my Prod instance? Will it cause any issues?

Thanks,

Phani.

Opening the new window when User clicks links in Dashboard view

$
0
0

We have Entity views placed in Dashboards. However when user clicks on any lookup column links in dashboard it opens the record in same window (dashboard) so User has to click on back button to go back to dashboard which gets rest and looses any View related selection made by user. Also user cannot have side by side comparison between dashboard and record form.

Is there anyway so that clicking in dashboard views or even double clicking record row can open it in new pop up window?

Thanks

Comparing Date Fields for Equality using fetchxml Issue

$

Hi,

I am trying to find all the child records where the date field is not in sync with the parent's date field. Both the date fields are kept in sync all the time but some of the legacy data isn't. So, I tried advanced find but soon noticed there isn't 'Does not Equal' operator for date fields. I tried writing a sql query and convert it into fetchxml using xrmtoolbox but that isn't working either. I am getting the date-time format for the [datefield] is invalid or value is outside the supported range.

here is the xml that I converted from sql query which is causing the above error:

<fetch mapping="logical" version="1.0">
  <entity name="incident">
    <attribute name="title" />
    <attribute name="new_name" />
    <attribute name="new_datetime" />
    <order attribute="new_name" />
    <filter>
      <condition attribute="new_datetime" operator="ne" value="new_datetime" />
      <condition attribute="new_name" operator="eq" value="xxxx" />
    </filter>
    <link-entity name="new_details" from="new_eterid" to="incidentid" alias="B" link-type="inner">
      <attribute name="new_cosname" />
      <attribute name="new_datetime" />
    </link-entity>
  </entity>
</fetch>

Please let me know if there is a better approach or what could be wrong with my approach. Thanks for any help!

"Browse file" (Attach file) button translation on CRM Portal is not working

$

I am working on a 2 language custom portal with a french base.

I created an entity form with file attachment enabled for a single file. 

The button label is the same for both languages. it is not translated to the second language (English). No Snippet or other record for this element.

In Firefox's case there is also a non translated message indicating that there is no selected file. 

I tried to resolve the problem with a Note Entity Form Metadata but it is not working.

Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue ? Thank you

This is the code i got from the element using the browser:

<input type="file" name="ctl00$ContentContainer$MainContent$EntityFormControl$EntityFormControl_EntityFormView$AttachFile" id="AttachFile" accept="*" aria-label="Attach a file...">

I want to add a button in the ribbon of Quote,
When The user click on that, A modal display, with two fields.
One is quoteproduct categories that exist in that quote, that means it searches in the quote product of quote and find all the categories exists in that specific quote and then display them in  a combo box.
Another field is a textbox, which is percentage.
Something like
The end-user clicks on the ribbon button, the modal appears, he/she gives a number to the percentage and select one of the categories; when presses apply button, it find and return all  amounts of the quote products in that quote that matches the user selected category, compute some amount based on quote total amount and the returned amounts and  and insert that computed number into a field in each quote product named overed_amount.
How can I handle this? JS or Plugin?
I prefer to this via JS rather than writing plugin, But can I pass parameters between this HTML or JS file to CRM Form/Forms?
And does anybody have any sample? like this? any suggestion?
I googled and most of Plugin are about writing simple plugin based on existing code.
Can I display modal via plugin?

Tablet and Mobile app MB2-716

Hi

I am trying to study for the MB2-716 exam and I am looking at the questions around the tablet app and mobile app. It seems that with v9 and the UUI some features have changed and I am not sure of what to answer questions related to the tablet and mobile app. 

In example, the mobile and tablet app has a limitation of 5 tabs but it seems that now that is not a restriction anymore (tried myself and I can 6 6 tabs in both apps).  Also the entity flag enable for mobile is not being used. 

So what should I answer if I am asked about these topics? Based on the previous version of Dynamics 365 (probably when the exam questions were created) or based on the latest version. I am not sure if the exam is updated when the application is. 

Thanks

Is it possible to add webservice in managed package in MS Dynamics CRM?

$

Hi,

I have a RESTful webservice(API) which is host on Azure server. This webservice uses as a mediator between CRM to Web Application. I have seen that Salesforce and Suite/Sugar provide facility to extend API. That means the developer can create external webservice and add it withing the package. So, it saves money. And provide more privacy as most industries needed.

Can anybody please suggest me if it is possible in MS Dynamics CRM?
