Microsoft CRM - Adding Customized field to a CRM Contact form

Microsoft CRM - Adding Customized field to a CRM Contact form


Adding Customized field to a CRM Contact form

Posted: 02 Mar 2004 08:35 AM PST

It involves disabling replication, making manual metabase/table/schema mods,
and then re-enabling replication. We have a fairly involved process that
lets us do it without breaking CRM.

Unfortunately it's far too complex for us to recommend people trying
themselves. You need to have extensive experience with the MSCRM and
METABASE architectures to do it without breaking the web or outlook client.
If you send me an email, I can have our support services get in touch with
you regarding what would be involved, and what the associated costs would
be.

Thanks Michael,

This is not a scenario that the Microsft CRM support team have recommended for performance reasons, as well as the one that you have stated.

Cannot add custom fields

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 11:15 PM PST

Hi Marina, have you published your new fields? They won't show up on the
MSCRM database tables until after you publish. CRM 1.2 has been released,
so you might want to think about switching off the beta.

Too Slow to Sync records between ERP and MSCRM

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 12:34 PM PST

In addition to Mike's suggestions, I'd also say to reevaluate how much
data you're forcing to sync every night. It sounds like you're trying
to synch every record. Is there any way you can only send the record
that have changed? How about trying to use Biztalk to process the
synch psuedo-real time through out the day?

Hi Jonathan, the SOAP proxy API is incredibly slow (especially on CRM
1.0).
You might want to look into using the unsupported COM proxy API. It's
much
faster, and the object interface is basically identical (but you don't
need
to specify credentials or url properties). It's quite easy to switch
code
between the two. The only consideration is that it's unsupported, and
may
be changed/dropped in a future version.

Also, what is your server setup? You may want to consider beefing up
your
SQL server box in order to get the throughput you need.

CRM SFO setup

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 12:09 PM PST

Well, in an offline scenario as you describe it, you might run into several
problems.

You use two different Windows profiles and hence two different Outlook
profiles:

- the Outlook Offline File (.ost) is bound to an Outlook Profile, you might
be able to bind it to your other account by at least synchronizing once
with your "offline" Windows account against your Exchange Server, but that
might lead quite unpleasant side effects.

- the offline features of CRM are bound to your Windows AND Outlook profile,
the permissions to the local SQL replica will be one point, attaching it to
the other Outlook profile another one.

To follow the previous poster, the best way is to use one profile, and
that's the way SFO is designed to work, one Windows and one Outlook
profile. You should be able to logon with your domain account whether
online or offline.

Hope thet helps.

CRM licenses order

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 10:59 AM PST

You can go to eopen.microsoft.com and login with a MS
Passport. From there, you can add agreeements to the
system and then get your codes.

If you'd prefer, you can contact our company and we can
assist you with that. We are a couple hours off the coast,
but the advantage is that we work long after you've gone
home to get you information before you wake up in the
morning.

I'm sorry you had such difficulty. When we place an order
for MS Licenses, we get a response from our distributor
within 24 hours. At which point we forward the e-mail to
you with your codes. Your reseller should have the same
repsonse time from their channel.

Read only fields based on picklist values

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 07:43 AM PST

Hi Jakob, the only event supported for the picklist is the onchange event,
so you would only be able to enable/disable fields when a user picks a value
(not when the form is opened or saved). You need to set the field to
disabled, as well as changing the style.

There are ways to add other javascript events to form fields, but it's not
currently supported or documented.

Is it poosible to custmize the form printouts?

Posted: 01 Mar 2004 12:36 AM PST

Hi Alper, the SDK allows you to create custom web pages that can pretty much
do anything you want to program them to do. So if you want to build your
own web page to print case out in a different format (i.e. including the
address), then you could use the SDK to learn how do this. There is nothing
specific about printing, you just need to create a web page that contains
the case data formatted in the way you want. The SDK gives you the
programming API to be able to access CRM data, and integrate your web page
into CRM by adding custom toolbar or menu options. You need expereince with
web development to do this.

Another option, as Gary mentioned, is to create or edit a crystal report to
print the information you need. You can also make the crystal report open
from a toolbar button or menu option.

Posted: 27 Jul 2004 11:02 AM PDT

Well, I'll be honest. I've set up lots of Exchange servers and have yet to
enter a DNS server in the Advanced Delivery window. Without an entry there,
Exchange will use the DNS that is already configured server-wide, which has
always worked fine for me. I don't know if zoneedit dot com is correct or
not. It's not necessarily the servers that provide DNS resolution for your
network. It's the servers that are defined as the Start of Authority if you
were to do an NSLOOKUP. If you go here
http://www.xav.com/mx_lookup.pl and plug in your domain name, the servers
listed as "nameserver" are the ones that must have proper A and MX records.

Word 2007: Table of Contents dialogue box does not appear

Posted: 04 Mar 2013 07:10 AM PST

According to the Microsoft Office 2007 training and locations elsewhere on this forum, if a user selects References->Table of Contents ->Insert Table of Contents then the Table of Contents dialogue box should appear, allowing for specification of included headings and other configurations. I found this to be true a few days ago when I was working on documents. However, currently when I follow these steps the dialogue does not appear.  Is there a way to figure out what may be causing this issue, and/or correct it? I was experimenting with writing macros earlier, so I do not know if somehow I altered the default template or building blocks in some way, but I do not beleive I did anything that should have that affect.

My alt | pulldown menu items used to have a Design (something) on the extreme right end; e.g.

 

             Home    Insert    Page Layout    References  .... Developer    Mathematics    Designer

 

I can't remember if was Design, Designer, or Design Mode; it was design something!

 

I'd press:  Alt (and JH would appear the Designer symbol), press J (and get another suite of selections), press Q (and i'd get Quick Parts)

 

Anyways, all that is gone:  No Design anything across the row of menu items, no more JH options when i press the Alt key.

 

How can i get this back???

 

Designing styles for complex, inconsistently-formatted multilevel numbered list

Posted: 02 Mar 2013 07:02 AM PST

I hope to create template for a complex multilevel list.

I do not understand the best way to create and/or apply styles efficiently:


1 Heading Level-One (e.g. 16pt font; 12/3 paragraph spacing)
   Plain text, indented to match Level-One

2 Heading Level-One (16pt font; 12/3 paragraph spacing)
   2.1 Term Bold-Faced  Definition regular-face paragraph indented 0.5" more than heading level
               definition regular-face paragraph indented 0.5" more than heading level
   2.2 Term Bold-Faced  Definition regular-face paragraph indented 0.5" more than heading level
               definition regular-face paragraph indented 0.5" more than heading level
3 Heading Level-One (16pt font; 12/3 paragraph spacing)
   3.1 Heading Level-Two (14pt font)
      3.1.1 Plain text, 12pt, indented to Level-Three
      3.1.2 Plain text, 12pt, indented to Level-Three
   3.2 Heading Level-Two (14pt font)
      Plain text, indented to Level-Three
   3.3 Plain text, 12pt, intended to Level-Two


I need to find a way to efficiently apply continuous numbering to an inconsistently formatted set of headings and variously indented paragraphs of plain text and heading text.
I have little trouble doing this by applying direct formatting, but I do not understand how to do it with STYLES - so it can be applied consistently across many document files.

Insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Can't Find Product Key

Posted: 07 Sep 2004 06:34 PM PDT

If there is a product key on the machine,
(which I doubt in your case)
All info can be mined by the free utility "Belarc Advisor"
http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

I don't subscribe to putting a lot of junk on the HDD
but this little beauty offers an opportunity to finger print
your entire system.
Ideal when seeking advice on newsgroups where
the type of machine/cards are required.

Works Suite 2005

Posted: 06 Sep 2004 10:39 AM PDT

No Word 2003 is why I'm sticking with Suite 2003.
OTOH Works suite's other components can run on W98 and up and word 2003
requires XP
But they could have offered a free or extremely subsidized (like pay for
shipping only) upgrade for XP users who get Works suite 2005 to get word
2003 upgrade
Wehn I had the prerelease version Word 2003 intergrated fine within Works
suite

overtype in Works 7

Posted: 06 Sep 2004 10:25 AM PDT

In the bottom, right hand corner of your word processing screen, you will
see "OVR" in a box. Double-click on it. It will turn off the over type
that is driving youi nuts. You proabably hit the keyboard command for it by
mistake.

Does MS Office 2003 run under Win2000 or only under XP (and more questions)?

Posted: 22 Jun 2004 03:53 AM PDT

>Does MS Office 2003 run under Win2000 or only under XP?
yes it runs on 2k.

 
only if you have an app that requires it... Think of the ".net framework" as the
".net RUNTIME" -- exe's written in .dot will need the framework (aka: runtimes)
 
supposed to all be backward compatible.

 
2003 is newer.
 
I don't see why not.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for your answer, do you know "why" this file is being updated?
Is there an unofficial version somewhere?

Yes you can - or I have running them for a few months with
no problems at all. I wouldn't bother up=grading unless
you need XP Pro features.

Hi Tia,

You've posted this before. Did you change your color dept settings already?
This should rebuild the icon cache.

Office XP - OL folder titles truncated

Posted: 20 Jun 2004 12:35 PM PDT

So the /resetnavbar switch wouldn't work (error message said "Cannot start
Microsoft Office Outlook. The command line argument is not valid. Verify
the switch you are using.") I was using:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\OUTLOOK.EXE" /resetnavbar

And making a new profile worked ... at first. After I closed the program
and re-opened it later, I found the same truncated letters on some folders.

Weird.

Chad,

I almost missed your reply to my message...luckily I scrolled down in your
reply to Peebs. Anyway, I agree that MS should definitely take a bunch of
these "solutions" and post them somewhere, as it seems that many many people
are unhappy with the absence of the OSB in Office 2003. Oh well....that's
Microsoft I guess ;)

Anyway, I hope people find my solution somewhat useful!

Office XP sounds stopped working

Posted: 19 Jun 2004 06:49 AM PDT

Thank you for your reply Milly.

I checked through the options in each of the office applications and found
the 'provide feedback with sound options' (haven't noticed them before). In
Outlook, Powerpoint and Word the option was ticked so I unticked and
re-ticked and the sounds came back. In Excel, it was unticked so I ticked it
and that is now working too.
I'm happy it's working again, but am puzzled as to why it stopped. Can using
Office Update somehow change your settings? I put SP3 onto Office XP a few
months back, though this sound problem only developed at the start of last
week.
Anyway, thank you again.

Regards
Mike

Office 03 icons not showing

Hi Tia,

1) Did you change your color dept settings as well? Worked like a charm when
I tested it.

2) What files do you mean?
