Some CRM interface features are broken

Posted: 13 Jan 2005 05:32 PM PST

Hi, I have the same problem. I am on XP sp2 and I have installed both XP SP2
patches (Server and client). The navigation problem was solved by this, but
I still have a problem with the menus and popup windows. Parts of the menus
are not being shown (although they are there) and fixed size popup windows
(like import leads etc) are too small, so that I don't have a next button
shown to click on (which is rather difficult when it states : click next to
continue). Any ideas what this may still come from ?

As long as youhad a license to spare, then you could do this.

Matt/John,

Thanks for the info.

Since this won't work with just one server, Let me ask this from a different
direction. Let us assume that we have only one install in place. Would
their be a way for us to set up what I might call "dummy" users in CRM that
could be used for demo purposes?

We could allocate a small batch of records that are unrelated to our
internal CRM data and in essence create a "group" of records and a couple of
"users" that we use simply for demos.

In the end, all I am hoping to accomplish is to have a way for our
salespeople and consultants to be able to show customers Microsoft CRM
through a standard web browser.

MSDE Installation Fails with SFO

Posted: 13 Jan 2005 12:17 PM PST

Yes. I had it installed on this machine but could not get "offline" to work.
Read other post, tried suggestions, last resort was to reinstall SFO. I
removed SQL2000 MSDE using "Add / Remove" programs, deleted the database and
removed registry entries for SQL. Is there something still hanging around
that needs to be removed before re-installing?

Thanks

Private Activity

Doesn't in this case, the MakePrivate method of the CRMActivity Class, works
?

Does it not really prevent others to manipulate the object ?
For example a manager who have normally access to his collegues'
activities...

if matt is correct you will need to get a utility from MBS support to update
your records based on your current security roles

John,

I actually found the patches last night, and I have applied. This time it
completed, but it still seemed to take quite a while for the entire synch
process...at least it's working now.

Thank you!

Modifying Domain Logon name

Posted: 13 Jan 2005 07:23 AM PST

If it's just changing the domain prefix, you can do this directly in the
SystemUserBase table. You will find you won't be able to add the domain
prefixed user as the platform determines the user already existis in the table,
but you can't remove it. Kind of a Catch-22.

Licences mixing

Posted: 13 Jan 2005 04:25 AM PST

Just a note: You can't mix standard licenses with professional licenses, so
whichever level you buy for one set of users, you will have to buy for all
the users.

Access to CRM reports not via CRM

Posted: 13 Jan 2005 03:19 AM PST

In addition ot the licensing issue, you need to understand how the report engine
works. One of the key features of the Crystal report interface wtih MSCRM is
that the users security is enforced interms of which records are returned. A
user that is not defined to MSCRM has not security context, so by default, has
no access to any data in the system.

The only option to provide "online" reports to non-CRM users is to build your
own that go directly at the underlying tables.

Hi All!
Is there any way to see CRM reports without using CRM interface?
It's useful in case when you need just to see reports without buying
licences for CRM.
For example, some boss does not work with CRM modules Sales or Customer
Service and just wants to see reports related to it. It's not a good
idea to buy Suite Licence only for viewing reports.
May be some other type of licences? Crystal Report?
Thanx for advance.

Unsupported but working: CR w/external ODBC

Posted: 12 Jan 2005 01:26 PM PST

It uses the same methods as CRM does by default (ODBC) -- but the problem is
a licensing issue. In order to use CR's ODBC connectivity you must have a
licensed version of CR outside of the OEM CR that comes with CRM.

There should be no issue as long as you own CR.

Automatic email of reports

Posted: 12 Jan 2005 02:38 AM PST

via Crystal Reports, not an option with current out of box version v1.2.

You can try externally controlling it via SDK approach.

CRM 1.2 Basic Authentication with SSL

Posted: 12 Jan 2005 12:30 AM PST

OK, when I hear adpater I usually think BizTalk.

My guess is that you are running into a problem with SSL not negotiating the
handshake properly when it comes to your calls. I haven't tried to run SDK
calls over SSL before, but your code will basically establish it's own
connection with the server. It may be having trouble negotiaing the SSL
handshake.

Is there anyway to configure it so that your code can bypass SSL? Maybe by
using localhost instead of the machine name? Or try configuring the
MSCRMServices directory to not require encryption?

Retrieve the current userid

Posted: 11 Jan 2005 11:35 PM PST

As long s you defined the security of the virtual directory properly, the
default credentials should get set to the current user.

Verify that the virtual directory has the same securty & AppPool settings as the
main crm root directory.
