Can you access CRM through the web client from those workstations?

Database call from Javascript -

Posted: 07 Dec 2004 12:07 AM PST

Just from a usability perspective you might want to do this on an onSubmit
instead of onBlur. Making a synchronous web service call in the middle of
user action will affect UI performance and slow down the user. If this was a
2 tier application with the database local to the client I might say go
ahead, but it's not.

Adding new fields to forms

Posted: 06 Dec 2004 11:51 PM PST

One option you have is through javascript. While the app only supports Onchange
for a picklist, there are some ways to manually register javascipt to other
fields. If you browse this group via Google, you should find several examples
of doing this.

Hi,

you cannot add a field that is a link. Can you add a button at the top of
the window as an alternative?

Javascript Errors on CRM Web Interface

Posted: 06 Dec 2004 01:47 PM PST

I've found the solution to this problem right here in this group posted by
Ryan Toenies. The problem is a bug with using CRM on Win XP SP2. Go Here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=95ed89d0-8b99-4458-b798-90ad5400923e&DisplayLang=en

Scroll to the bottom where you will see 4 files for download. Download and
install the first file with Client-ENU in the name on the CLIENT machine.
Then, download the file with Server-ENU on the CRM SERVER. I say use the ENU
file assuming you are running the English language pack, otherwise the two
alternate files may be for you.

Good Luck!

CRM Appointment

I created the appointment in CRM . . . but I get a popup reminder in
outlook. And there's no connection to the account (like there usually for
Outlook contacts).

Missing Address Data

Posted: 06 Dec 2004 10:48 AM PST

Brandon,

Thanks for the info.

I followed your instructions, but the agent history does not show any
failures. The one entry where the majority of the data appears to have been
synchronized shows 14633 inserts, 8 updates and 1151 deletes. Since this
user had never entered data before, the 1151 deletes is curious. Anyway,
looks like SQL is happy, but somehow it choose to delete 1151 pieces of
data. I guess my only option is to reinstall the CRM outlook client and
start fresh.

View Status Reason in Lost Opportunity resolution screen

Posted: 06 Dec 2004 09:59 AM PST

We are trying to do the apparently impossible. :(

Figured I would take a flyer on it; with all the backdoor stuff like
activity modification, I thought that perhaps someone on here much
smarter then I would have an idea on how to accomplish this.

Thanks for your input.
If there is a way out there, please share! Or share why not perhaps?

Thanks for the response. It's pretty much the conclusion I had come to
even if not the one I was hoping for!

Data Migration Enquiries

Posted: 05 Dec 2004 10:20 PM PST

Hello Johnson,

I understand you want to migrate data from one CRM server to another. While
you can indeed use the Data Migration Framework, you probably want to look
at the Microsoft CRM redeployment tools. These tools will help you
"redeploy" CRM, i.e. move all your data from a server to another. In the
process, you can also change your organization name, your users, etc.

The redeployment tool is available at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=bfced393-61db-49af-9a50-4a90b311fa7d&DisplayLang=en

If you really want to use the Data Migration Framework, be aware that you
will hit a few limitations. For example, you will not be able to preserve
1:n relationships between entities. Also, the DMF does not support all
entities. The DMF has been designed to handle migrations from external
systems into CRM, not CRM to CRM migrations.

To answer your questions regarding the CDF database: the CDF uses object IDs
as unique identifiers, not GUIDs. If you need to export data from CRM into
the CDF database, you can write a script (or create a DTS package) which
generates a unique integer for every CRM GUID. Changing the type of the CDF
columns is not supported. The data migration tools expect all IDs to be
integers.

Regards,

FetchXML IN Operator?

Posted: 04 Dec 2004 06:41 PM PST

If I remember right we actually generate a SQL IN clause when <fetch>
specifies an 'in' operator. The difference is trivial because the SQL
optimizer will eventually convert IN to a series of OR. The cost is
transmitting the SQL over the wire and dealing with the SQL stack size.

Found the problem: CRM defaults to IIS5 security; clear this in IIS
and make sure the CRM app pool run under correct account.
