    - SBE Customizations to Professional I have SBE customizations I created a few months ago, and now I'm trying to import them into Professional CRM. Some other differences are: SBE on SBS with SQL 2000, Professional on SQL 2005. Other than that, it should be the same environment. Is there something I'm missing why this doesn't complete the import? Chris Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 77110

    - Searching closed entities in CRM I want to use the simple "Look For" search in the VIEWS of an entity. The problem is that it will only search Active records, not closed/inactive. An example would be searching for a company in the Opportunities view. I want to find how many opportunites they have, open and closed. It will only find the open ones. Is there a way to change that search to work for both? -- Client Solutions Manager Micro Strategies Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 77101

    - Merge Error in Contacts We converted an Act Database putting most of the records into Leads and only qualified records into Contacts. I've been in the process of identifying and merging duplicates. My latest test stripped all EMail addresses out of Leads and Contacts, sorting them and identifying duplicates. I can merge a Lead with a Lead I can merge a Contact with a Contact. Here's my problem: If I convert a Lead to a Contact and then try to Merge the two records I get an error followed by the following Script Error Line: 291 Char: 1 Error: 'crmMergeForm' is undefined Code: 0 URL: http://deal.netleasecapital.com:5555/_grid/cmds/dlg_merge.aspx?iObjType=2&iTotal=2&sIds={0D0D0F27-84FC-DA11-91CB-001143D1B427};{D8EE10FC-D9C1-DB11-B891- I haven't checked, but I assume the URL is for the two Contacts Any ideas?

    - Pick fields in dynamic export This may be a simple question to the gurus, but here it is. I am running an advanced find against my activities, but want to include account information when I export to Excel. Based on what I've heard and read, it seems to me that, if I export to a dynamic pivot table, I get the opportunitiy to pick additional columns that are not available when exporting to static worksheets. The only place that I've seen where I can pick additional columns, is in the "edit columns" button within the actual advanced find. However, this does not give me the fields I want. Where else can I get to these additional fields? Thanks for any help you can provide. Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 77095

    - Help - Updated CRM 3.0 refuses to install on SBS R2 CRM 3.0 refuses to install on my SBS 2003 R2 premium server. I was encountering the known issues with CRM 3 on SBS R2 using the CDs that came in the Action Pack subscription so I downloaded the updated CRM CDs from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7d418781-69ad-422d-92fa-87fdb2538e2c&DisplayLang=en This copy gave me a different set of problems. The default setup mode pops up a couple errors. The first one is the lack of full text search so I installed that and ran the setup again. The next error was: "The edition 'Workgroup Edition' of the specified SQL Server is not supported by this SQL Server Reporting Services installation. Supported editions are Enterprise Edition and Standard Edition." I installed reporting services for SQL 2k5 express, installed SQL 2k5 SP1, and then configured reporting services. (had to change the reportserver virtual directory to a new app pool though) Now both standard and custom installation modes give me this error: Failed to locate the Web Application configuration file. Verify the file specified in registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Reporting Services[WAConfigFilePath] This key is not in my registry. I suspect it may be because Iâ??m using SQL express rather than full SQL. This SBS r2 premium server is fully updated with latest windows updates, service packs and such. How exactly do I install CRM 3.0 (original, or updated CD) on SBS R2 premium? Iâ??ve already read the CRM 3.0 on SBS r2 and CRM 3.0 implementation guides on the MS site but they didnâ??t help. If I have to upgrade to full SQL 2005 then how do I do this? Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 77089

    - CRM, reports, and IE7 I'm having a specific issue with Internet Explorer 7 and MSCRM 3.0. For the most part, CRM works fine. However, when anyone tries to run a SQL2000 Reporting Services report from within CRM (either the Outlook or web client), it gives one of those nifty full-page errors. If I go straight to the report server, through IE7, I can run the report just fine. Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone know how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - Replies do not route back into CRM Hi, friends. I have a problem with our CRM router which I can't work out for several days. Replies on outgoung e-mails, which were sent from CRM and which had tracking tokens their subjects, do not appear inside CRM application as closed e-mail activities. The router service runs under domain user account having System Administartor security role in CRM and Local Admin rights on the exchnage sever (2003). This account as well as Exchange server computer account is a member of PrivUserGroup. There are no errors in any of event logs. I have attached an e-mail box of router user (created during router installation) to my Microsoft Outlook and visually have seen that each reply comes to this e-mail box into "inbox" folder. After 30-60 sec each reply message which has tracking token moves to "Undeliberable" subfolder of "indox" folder. And each message which has no tracking token simply disappears. I've enabled tracing on the server and catched one error from the tracing files, but I can't understand what it means (see below). I've already tried to re-install the router. I does not help. What can I do else... Have no idea. Any help will be greatly appreciated. >Crm Exception: Message: , ErrorCode: -2147218683, InnerException: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040B05) at Microsoft.Crm.NativeInteropProxy.CRMInteropEmailClass.DeliverIncoming(CUserAuth& Caller, String MessageId, String Subject, String From, String To, String CC, String BCC, String SubmittedBy, String Importance, String Body, CEmailAttachment[] Attachments, Int32 Count) at Microsoft.Crm.ObjectModel.EmailService.DeliverIncoming(String messageId, String subject, String from, String to, String cc, String bcc, String submittedBy, String importance, String body, BusinessEntityCollection attachments) at Microsoft.Crm.WebServices.EmailWebService.DeliverIncoming(String messageId, String subject, String from, String to, String cc, String bcc, String submittedBy, String importance, String body, BusinessEntityCollection attachments) [2007-02-21 15:58:34.7] Process: w3wp |Thread: 1816 |Category: Platform |User: e99f7e83-7e15-4b84-98db-d642feef5728 |Level: Error | CrmSoapExtension.ProcessMessage at CrmSoapExtension.ProcessMessage(SoapMessage message) at SoapMessage.RunExtensions(SoapExtension[] extensions) at SoapServerProtocol.WriteException(Exception e, Stream outputStream) at WebServiceHandler.WriteException(Exception e) at WebServiceHandler.Invoke() at WebServiceHandler.CoreProcessRequest() at SyncSessionlessHandler.ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) at CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication+IExecutionStep.Execute() at HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) at HttpApplication.ResumeSteps(Exception error) at HttpApplication.System.Web.IHttpAsyncHandler.BeginProcessRequest(HttpContext context, AsyncCallback cb, Object extraData) at HttpRuntime.ProcessRequestInternal(HttpWorkerRequest wr) at HttpRuntime.ProcessRequest(HttpWorkerRequest wr) at ISAPIRuntime.ProcessRequest(IntPtr ecb, Int32 iWRType) >CrmSoapExtension detected CrmException: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: . ---> at CUserAuth& Caller, String MessageId, String Subject, String From, String To, String CC, String BCC, String SubmittedBy, String Importance, String Body, CEmailAttachment[] Attachments, Int32 Count) at Microsoft.Crm.ObjectModel.EmailService.DeliverIncoming(String messageId, String subject, String from, String to, String cc, String bcc, String submittedBy, String importance, String body, BusinessEntityCollection attachments) at Microsoft.Crm.WebServices.EmailWebService.DeliverIncoming(String messageId, String subject, String from, String to, String cc, String bcc, String submittedBy, String importance, String body, BusinessEntityCollection attachments) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- -- Best regards, Alexander Baskakov Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 77062

    - Newbie Dumb Question re Quotes/invoices Hi, i am very new to CRM, and I have it running and working on my network. Anyway, my question is in relation to using it. I have successfully setup my products, price list, contacts, accounts, etc. I then proceeded to run through a test process from start to finish. I created my lead, then made it an opertunity, then i created a quote, added my products, etc. Now heres the part where i'm confused. Once i have created and made avtive my quote, i want to print a copy off to give to my customer. When i try to print the quote, i get a basic dump of the info on my screen, no nice presentable quotation. So my question is how do i go about doing this? It is probaly a really dumb question, but i am a systems admin, not a customer relations manager, or sales person, i just need to get it all working for my boss.

I'm unsure what joined views to use when I'm initially pulling data from the "FilteredQuote" view. Some are obvious like "filteredquotedetail" but when it comes to upstream data such as the Account ID, I'm not sure what views to join. Does anyone have a process they use for deciphering what tables/views should be joined to the main "view" they are using to query data? -- Sketchy Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 77008

Is there anyway to change the status of an expired contract to cancelled? Is the only option to delete the contract? We don't like this as we lose the history. Are there any other fields we can update (by workflow perhaps) in an expired contract so that we can distinguish between these two states?

    - Locking Down and Securing CRM v3.0 I'm looking for some examples of how people are securing access to CRM data. We currently use a combination of CRM roles and c360 for field level security to limit users access to the data that impacts their job or duties. However, when using the CRM Outlook client, c360 does not carry over offline. This leaves data open to users when they are offline. These offline users can modify any data they wish (depending on their role). These updates are then synched when they go online. Has anyone written any custom code or have another solution that will allow CRM to be secured when offline? Thanks, James (Jimmie) Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 76999

    - Data migration and relationship question Hi I am wanting to migrate data using the DMF from our bespoke system into CRM. We have 2 tables which contain Company incl Address and People. The first table contains multiple entries for the same company only with different addresses for the various sites. The People table has contact records that relate to individual company sites. I believe I'm wanting to create records in the DMF database in the following tables. Account, Contact, CustomerAddresses. In CRM I want to show that each address is related to both the Account & Contact but it seems that I have to make a choice whilst migrating data. The DMF CustomerAddresses table requires me to state whether the address has a relationship to either the Account or Contact. I want both. Any help appreciated.

    - Mail merge questions regarding mass e-mails Hello all, We are utilizing MS CRM version 3.0 and plan to use mail merge functionality to communicate information to our customers. I have some basic mail merge questions that I'm hoping someone can help with. (1) Is it possible to have the the mail merge e-mails come from a generic company mailbox as opposed to the users specific e-mail address (they have a mailbox set up already). (2) When mail merge is used to communicate to a large list of recipients, how can we set it up so that the emails will go out as a Bcc: instead of a To: or Cc: (i.e. in order to avoid e-mails going out showing other customers email addresses) (3) With mail merge e-mails generated from CRM, where will the kickbacks go (i.e. will they go back to the generic e-mail account that we would like to use to communicate our mail outs). Thanks in advance for any help on these RJ Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 76991

    - bulk e-mail disabled I have a user trying to send out an email to multiple contacts within an Account. When he tries, it gives him an error message: Bulk E-Mail service not running. I went to server and checked and it is indeed not running and is in fact disabled? According to my install procedure and notes, I never did anything to disable this service. I am nervous to turn it on if it is disabled by default? CAn someone shed some light on this for me? Thank you. Tag: Address Name on Contact and Account Entities Tag: 76989

    - error writing to adodb.dll on 1.2 to 3.0 upgrade We need some help. We did an upgrade of a 1.2 CRM server yesterday to 3.0. It had an error "Error writing to file:adodb.dll. Verify that you have access to that directory." The install log ends with SQL Server Reporing Services failed. The CRM pages come up, but most links error out. Where do I turn now? Does anyone know what permission it's missing? Then, what do I do with this install? Can I rerun in the upgrade or reinstall again? Thanks for any help.

you might want to call one addres the contact's "Vacation" address or their
"Home" or "Cottage"

pretty weak, but that the best example I can come up with!
