How to Quickly Create Multiple Tasks Within a Case Form - Looking for Suggestions

$

We are a very customer focused software/engineering company and sales handles multiple requests from customer (up to 15-20 tasks at a time) to capture these tasks we create “meeting reports” which are basically the same thing as an appointment. For tracking purposes I overwrote Cases as meeting reports for the default entity relationships. Below is the new form

 

I tried adding just the task grid to the form but it is just a view to look up tasks (not a simple click and add)

I see that you can go to the activities up at the top under “Common” but that is just an awkward location, doesn’t follow a business process flow, and applies to all activities, not just tasks. This kind of functional view would be great if it existed within the Meeting Report form and only related to “Task” activities.

I saw that you can create a business process flow so that a Case would transition to a task...but is it possible to transition to a task grid workspace? im bascially fishing for improvement ideas because i need this is one working location or a strict path for a sales person to enter data

Hello community,

I have a requirement to produce a report that shows the number of times each of the CRM systems' reports have been run by users.  Something like this:

Won opportunities120
Leads: Older than six month56
Daniels dashboard301 times
etc.

Is there a way of pulling this data from CRM?

Regards,

Daniel

I created a report for opportunities and added the columns I needed. Several of the columns are duplicated when the report is generated. When I created the report I did not duplicate columns.

It seems any opportunity report I create using any combo of the above columns they are duplicated

ITracingService - getting access to the traceInfo at runtime

$

I have some custom logging in my plugin and want to include the contents of my tracingService in my custom logging (which writes to my log within catch blocks, before the plugin finishes).

I cant seem to access the content of tracingService. I wonder if it is accessible at all?

I tried tracingService.ToString() just incase the devs had provided a useful overload, alas as expected I get name of the class "Microsoft.Crm.Sandbox.SandboxTracingService".

So far....

To get the traceInfo string from traceService at runtime I used debugger to interrogate the tracingService contents and extract the expression.

So the traceInfo string is accessible from these expressions...

for Plugins

((Microsoft.Crm.Extensibility.PipelineTracingService)(tracingService)).TraceInfo

for CWA

((Microsoft.Crm.Workflow.WorkflowTracingService)(tracingService)).TraceInfo


However, at design time neither of these expressions seem to be accessible from any of the standard CRM 2011 SDK dlls...


Any ideas community?!

TIA

Search for records modified on a specific time - any workarounds?

$
0
0

Hello everyone

I currently believe that it is impossible to search records based on a specific time, using FetchXML..as Dynamics ignores the time portion of any fetchxml query.

Is anyone aware of any work arounds, to do this? I have tried to use greater than, rather than on-or-after, to no effect. I then tried thinking around the box and created a date/time field to be populated by a workflow's execution time..and again for a text field, before realising you can't pull a greater than query on a text field.

If it's not possible with fetchxml, is it possible by querying the SDK?

All thoughts are welcome.

Set a field to Today() - a Changing date based on the current date

I’m looking create a field on a form that updates continually based on the current time. I want this because I could then create rules and workflows off due dates, reminder dates, start dates, etc. These workflows would change the fields on the same or other entities.

 

For example if a task due date is greater than TODAY() then set field value to “Needs Update”

I was looking at the equations but they are limited on functionality – Perhaps there is a tool pack download that has excel functions like this or a workaround?

Unable to add columns or groupings when creating a report

Hello,

I have been trying to build a report from scratch using the report wizard; however, when I get to the "Lay Out Fields" stage, I am unable to select a column from the drop-down box. The record type drop-down box behaves as expected, but the column box is blank. Has anyone experienced something similar? Is this a bug? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi there!

I've been searching around for a solution to update the exchange rates once a day in CRM 2015 however most solutions require programming knowledge. 

I have some basic programming knowledge and I was wondering if someone could guide me in the right direction as to if and how I could achieve this.

Thanks!

Install Update Rollup 18 for Dynamics CRM 2011 - major changes & possible issues

$

Hi guys.

I have an installation of MS Dynamics CRM 2011 on premise with UR11 and I am going to install UR18. Basing on your experiences, what are the major change I have to expect? Will be any change in the UI (forms, etc.)? Do I have to expect some issues? I think I can install directly UR18 without pass through intermediate UR in my case that I have UR11, isn't it?

I have some code from CRM 4.0 and I know that I need to fix some part on JS libraries because no more supported after UR12, but in this case I can use the validation tool from Microsoft. Other things to take care?

Any suggestion and lesson learned that you would share with me, I will appreciate very much!

Many thanks

Global Search Text Box in Title Header

Greetings all,

My company recently received the 2015 update to our CRM Online system.  I love the cross-entity global search, but I feel like I'm missing out.  Every article I read that refers to the new Global Quick Find search, shows a Text Box in the Title bar like this:

But our system doesn't have that.  It just has the magnifying glass icon.  If you click on it, it has to load a whole new page before entering your search text.  How do I get the text box up there?  Here's what mine looks like:

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
