| new to MS CRM - Please help Posted: 08 Jun 2005 07:07 AM PDT Julian,
thanks for your prompt reply. I tried to download
the SDK from MSDN but only the help file is present
in the SDK download. package.
Can you suggest another link where I can download the
latest version?. Does the small business server need to
be installed prior to installing CRM?
Thanks again,
Carlos.

All of the product forecasting reports work against Opportunity Product. So
if we want to know forecasted revenue by product we need to put in
Opportunity Products. Opp Products is where I feel they should go as well.
Our customer is a software/services firm and they don't have fixed prices.
When looking into opp products all you can edit is the quantity. You CANNOT
change the price-per-unit, or the baseamount. They are looked up in the
background from the PriceList table. All I want is this:
On opp products, I want to enter the price-per-unit and quantity. The
system can calculate the amount total for me. Then it would update the
amount of the opportunity.
I don't want to force my customer to create a quote when it is way to much
overkill for them.

| Unable to register CRM Security Service Posted: 07 Jun 2005 08:52 AM PDT
Uninstall CRM fully, following the Installation Guide for uninstallation
Then add the CRM and SQL server AD accounts, and the service accounts (where
not Local System) to the Pre-Windows 2000 Compatible Access Group, and
reboot the servers, BEFORE installation. This requirement is spelt out
clearly in the MSCRM Installation Guide. (except for the reboot - thats my
idea)

| Connection error during data migration Posted: 06 Jun 2005 11:36 PM PDT The CRM Server is installled in the same machine as SQL Server. Basically,
the setup topology is as below:
i) SQL Server is already up and running before CRM installation.
ii) MSCRM is installed.
iii) Using Web Application, I have created the necessary user with roles and
licenses. This means that the CRM database in the SQL server is working fine
right.
iv) Then I install the CRM Data Migration software.
v) Run the InitializationTool.exe and transfer data using Data
Transformation in Enterprise Manager.
vi) Then I run the MigrationTool.exe and the error occurs.
FYI, I've tested this data migration on a test server previously and the
MigrationTool.exe can be run successfully. The difference between these 2
servers is that they are under different domain. Thanks.

One thing I'm
curious about, the error you posted was from the user Sincere Tjandra, is
this the
user that has been testing or the user you are using?
If you go to the Workplace, create a new email and send it to Sincere
Tjandra, does
it send ok?

| Urgent: CRM Crashing Posted: 06 Jun 2005 02:39 PM PDT Biz,
Sneaking suspicion here.. HOW did you update the relationship between
contacts and accounts? Did you use the CRM UI, or did you do a
back-door SQL query? If the latter... I hope you have a backup...
And what is the "CRM Entry module"?
You can only use the API or the GUI or an approved tool like Scribe to
modify the data in CRM. NEVER update CRM data directly! (I have over
a decade of everyday T-SQL use, and I can tell you from painful
experience with CRM 1.0, you WILL mess up the database if you do any
significant data updates directly to SQL... Just say no...
HTH,

| Lead Modify Date not changing for all actions. Posted: 06 Jun 2005 01:40 PM PDT Eric (and Brian, and Matt),
Several users feel the same way you do Matt - if they change anything
associated with a lead, then that lead should appear "modified". There
is no easy way to do this in the core CRM product. c360's Activity
Summary can show you this information today, although it requires
another click or few to get there. Activity Summary is supposed to be
part of the new CRM product, as well.
However, there is still no easy way to, for example, get a list of the
Leads that have had NO activity (no phone calls, no tasks, no changes
to the data). And that's why we're adding that functionality to our
VAST product. At the WWPC in July, we'll be demoing our new "VAST
Insights" product that utilizes the CRM changes VAST captures to give
users 'one-click' access to their historical CRM data. With VAST
Insights, users will be able to see, for example:
- Leads with no activity in (the time period they choose)
- Leads WITH activity (this week, month, etc.)
- Opportunities that were pushed out (estimated close date was
increased, again, during a user-specified time period).
Please send me an email or give me a ring if you'd like to discuss
further. HTH!

| access privilege to send bulk email Posted: 06 Jun 2005 01:15 PM PDT Hi -
This was a post from another newsgroup - It worked for me and I've heard
others have used it successfully.
BTW on another topic, be aware that a known bug is that the 'send direct
email' function ignores the 'do not email' settings. this could lead to
inadvertant spam if users assume that users who have 'do not email' set
won't receive bulk mail.
Good Luck -
Scott Sewell
I was having exactly the same problem - only Domain Admins could send Direct
E-Mail.
Looking in the event log on the server you have the CRM Exchange Connector
installed, you are probably seeing an event from DCOM with event ID 10016
which tells you that the user does not have "Local Activation" rights for a
particular object.
To fix this, load up the "Component Services" Admin Tool, and expand out the
tree
"Component Services" --> "Computers" --> "My Computer" --> "DCOM Config".
Right-Click "CrmBulkMailService" and select "Properties." Go to the
"Security" tab, and then select "Customise" under "Launch and Activation
Permissions". Click "Edit", and set permissions as needed - simplest way is
to make a Global Group called "CRM Users" on your DC, add all CRM users to
it, and grant it Local Launch and Local Activate permissions.
Once you've done that, your Direct E-Mail should work - it worked here...

| vpn access & host headers Posted: 06 Jun 2005 11:40 AM PDT Rodger,
If your VPN connection is functioning correctly then when you initiate a vpn
connection you are virtually in the network! This means that you have an IP
or virtual IP on the same subnet of the office network (if you are not sure
how to test this type "cmd" into the run command and then type "ipconfig
/all" and this will tell you your IP addresses). If this is the case then,
the host headers (if working internally) will function the same as when you
are in the office when you have connected your vpn. Is your Router the VPN
unit? if so then it should not need to route any traffic if you will have
network access anyway! But if you are using the external IP eg
http://61.0.0.0 (port 80 by default unless other specified) to access from
the web then yes your router will need to pass port 80 traffic to your server
IP using NAT policies or whatever address translation your router uses. Host
headers are not required if accessing the crm from the web.
Regards,
Nathan

As long as you are only reading data from CRM or updating existing
items there is no problem with using conventional SQL. It also means
that you have a much wider choice of language in which to implement
your solution. If you want to create objects in CRM then many objects
include a 'security descriptor' which is not sufficiently doented
to allow you to create it outside of their API so the SDK may be a
better bet.
