SBS Default Web Site & Microsoft CRM Version 1.2 & Host Header Value

Posted: 21 Apr 2004 02:51 PM PDT

David,

I have also noticed that I am getting the following errors since the change.
The emails mentioned in the error message look to be spam but the error
messages are only since I have made the host header additions. I have had
them before when I changed the host header value.

The errors are as follows;

CRM Customization Activities

Posted: 21 Apr 2004 01:55 AM PDT

Dmitry,

only fields that are common to all activity types are available which is why
not all fields are available. I suggest you take a look at our product
"Activity Summary" which displays the "Regarding" field in addition to
displaying a global view of all activities that are related one way or
another to an account. You can download a free evaluation copy at
www.c360.com.

Not that I know of. For my opinion, you gain some because the outlook calendar can do things like recurring meetings, shared calendars, and alarms. If I were you I would just experiment on creating tasks the different ways (CRM, SFO, native outlook) and see what it gets you. That's what I did

Svr Prep/CRM Install - Hire a Pro?

Posted: 20 Apr 2004 06:17 PM PDT

Stu,

A CRM implementation done right really consists of very little install time.

I would say in my projects I spend about 60% of my time working with clients
to learn their business processes and documenting requirements and
customizations. 20% actually implementing those customizations, 10% on the
actual install, and 10% on training and handoff to the customer.

CRM is a lot less about the technology, and a lot more about the internal
processes and strategy around the technology.

If a customer asked me to come to their site and "only install" the system,
I wouldn't do it. I would only engage with customers who I felt are setting
themselves up for success.

Hard Disk Clean Up Tools

Posted: 20 Apr 2004 04:34 PM PDT

If this is an enterprise critical system you need something better than
scandisk etc as gary says. Also you really need to be running on RAID 5 so
you can cope with a hard disk failure. Heck you could even go to multiple
RAID controllers but as the hard disk is spinning so fast its the piece most
likely to fail

Handling Multiple Marketing Lists

Posted: 20 Apr 2004 02:47 PM PDT

Thanks again for your input, John.

Yes, we do have multiple campaigns to deal with. In addition, and perhaps
more important, do you have any tips for how we can avoid redundant data in
our Leads list, assuming we use that as a "dumping ground" for all new
marketing lists?

One problem we seem to have is that if we get marketing lists from several
companies (which are all for the same campaign), there doesn't appear to be
any globally unique identifier for each contact (like a social security
number), so there is probably a pretty good chance we'll end-up with
duplicate data being imported. Do you have any tips for avoiding that short
of manually combing through each list? I know this probably isn't exactly
MS CRM related...

Sincerely,
Todd M. Taylor

Need advice on where to import marketing lists...

Posted: 20 Apr 2004 01:07 PM PDT

I've found a few more Microsoft CRM "definitions" in the User Guide PDF:

LEADS:
Leads are individuals who have indicated an interest in finding out more
about the products or services offered. Leads that do not work out are
disqualified, but retained in the database for business reporting purposes.

OPPORTUNITIES:
An opportunity is a potential sale to an account or contact.

From the above definition of a "Lead", a contact in a marketing list
probably doesn't fit this defnition, however, there doesn't appear to be any
place else to import a marketing list other that the "Leads" section.

Sincerely,
Todd M. Taylor

Activity Linking

Posted: 20 Apr 2004 12:23 PM PDT

Take a look at our product "Activity Summary". It displays a global view of
all activities related to an account in addition to displaying the due date
and the created on date which allows you to sort these activities
chronologically. On the same screen, Activity Summary displays all
activities directly related to the account and also it displays activities
associated to all contacts linked to this account, activities associated to
cases related to the account, activities releated to opportunities under the
account, etc.

CRM Exchange Router for multiple IP SMTP addresses

Posted: 20 Apr 2004 07:57 AM PDT

OK, that point wasn't clear, I just wanted to rule out an issue with the
user/email/queue setup. I don't know if there is a way to get the router to
monitor the secondary SMTP server or not. I'm guessing you will need to open a
support ticket for this and get help from MBS support.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for reply. Actualy we did try to send to com and it
works OK, because all email for DOMAIN1.COM comes in via primary SMTP virtual
server, and it appears that CRM router monitors this SMTP flow ONLY. Problem is
that all SMTP email for DOMAIN2.COM is MX registered to flow via secondary IP
address and through secondary SMTP virtual server, and this SMTP flow is not
monitored by CRM router. Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that CRM router
monitors only one virtual SMTP server - primary.
It is not problem to set account's primary SMTP e-mail in active directory -
both accounts have both SMTP addresses. SUPPORT account has primary
COM and secondary COM. Other account - SUPPORT2
has primary COM and secodnary COM. E-mails
which comes in to DOMAIN1.COM work OK for both accounts. But email which comes
to DOMAIN2.COM is missed.

Integrate Microsoft CRM 1.2 with SAP

Posted: 19 Apr 2004 03:52 PM PDT

I guess I understand the reasoning behind not being able to delete users,
but as a developer, I need to break stuff to see how it works and adding
test users seems like a legitimate need. As much as I'd like to create an
entire CRM development environment, coming-up with another server on it's
own domain to do that just isn't feasible :(

I highly recommend not dinkin' with the database... I did and got myself
locked-out of CRM ;D

SFO hangs when going offline

Posted: 19 Apr 2004 03:14 PM PDT

no......its pretty buggy, a few months ago I called MBS and opened a
case,.....well over a month later not a single thing was resolved, and being
under pressue I simply used my own laptop as a guinea pig and formatted the
sucker, and it worked, and for a second machine with the problem I upgraded
it to XP from 2000 (formatting was not acceptable, hehe).....

funny thing is now,....I have this new laptop that I have formatted and
installed windows 4 times in a row, trying to keep it as vanilla as
possible, and just get CRM on there, and it simply won't give, the outlook
client consistantly gives the same error, no matter what I try (I even
installed with bare bare bare bones, and ONLY the patches it
demanded).....wild stuff

Note is now possible to incorporate .net code such as C# into the latest

would be very possible. Just needs a friendly developer to write it for you.

I am also interested in creating emails in CRM. You mentioned that you thought it would be easy using the SDK. Can you give me a pointer on how you plan to do it? I don't know where to begin. I know that I have to use a CRM API to create an activity, but that's about it. Thank you for any advice

I've been battling that error for months, its almost futile. I contact MBS
and spent a full month with their developers and engineers and got no where,
I eventually said screw it and reintalled the entire machine (OS too) and
that fixed it. Now I have a machine that no matter how many times I
format/reinstall I keep getting that error. However last time, I simply
upgraded this machine to WinXP from Win2000, and that seemed to do the
trick........
