    - Distributing Quotes/Invoices to Clients I have been setting up our company information in preparation for using the CRM (Sales & Customer Services modules) package. One area that seems a little strange is the ability to produce & submit detailed quotes & invoices to the relevant clients. For quotes specifically, there appears to be a way to print a summary sheet but little else. It seems odd that this key function (i.e., distributing detailed quotes / invoices) is not part of the packaged system. Does anyone have any input on this ? Will we need to prepare customised reports to produce these ? Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30806

    - OSAP in Feature Pack? Hi All! From june announce from Microsoft i read the following: "Microsoft Office Solution Accelerator for Proposals for Microsoft CRM: Microsoft Office Solution Accelerator for Proposals (OSAP) for Microsoft CRM enables organizations to create effective sales proposals and shorten proposal generation cycles through powerful integration and collaboration between Microsoft CRM, Microsoft Office and Windows SharePoint Services. The integration between Microsoft CRM with OSAP enables Microsoft CRM users to launch a proposal work site as well as select a proposal template directly from a CRM Opportunity. With customer information transferred directly from this CRM Opportunity (to the proposal site) data silos between these systems are eliminated. This integration also enables Microsoft CRM users to coordinate work since they can see related activities, view the status of the proposal as well as link to the proposal site directly from within Opportunities." But in release FactSheet i see nothing about OSAP for MS CRM. So i made a conclusion that it's not in Feature Pack now, is it right? Thanks for advance Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30795

    - Creating a new object Hello all! Our company is new using CRM customizations. We want to create a custom object (like Account, Product, Opportunity, Lead, etc...). However, we can find no documentation on how to do so. Is it possible to do this, and if so, how would we go about doing it? Also, CRM is being weird as far as the isv.config is concerned. It doesn't seem to be accessing it when it is turned to "On" from the web.config. It was working yesterday before we left, but now it's not working. Any suggestions? Maybe is there somewhere that a path is defined for the isv? Any help would be greatly appreciated :) Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30749

    - Is there a way to add a link to an Exchange Public Folder email to a Support Case description? I don't see any way to promote an email to a CRM Support Case, and the email capability in CRM is about as helpful as the old teletype with no rich text, no ability to paste a message with graphics, charts and other helpful descriptive material. I am trying to see if I create an Exchange Public Folder for CRM Cases if I can create links in the case descriptions to the public folder messages so that as a case is passed through the workflow to resolve the issue that related emails can be linked and easily reviewed by clicking on the associated links.

    - What is the proper way to handle internally generated support cases? I would like to route support cases generated by our internal Q/A testing group through the CRM support system with each defect identified becoming a Case and then routing the case just like an outside generated case for a product defect. If the people submitting the Case are also CRM users and it is our own company submitting the case do I need to create an Account for our own company and have contacts created for the people in Q/A? Is there anything written that outlines how to cleanly set this up? Bill Walter Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30746

    - Newbie with a couple of quick questions Hi Folks, We have an outside contractor that is supposed to be helping us implement CRM. I am helping the service team collect requirements in order to generate specifications. Our contractor has indicated that there is a limitation to the number fields that can be created. We have a lot of custom fields we would like to add (an example is a problem-cause-resolution set of fields). Is there a limitation? Anyone know what it is? Secondly, they have given us a test instance to play with. I will be a super-user when we are ready to roll. I have been experimenting with customizing the case report forms. My changes do not show up when entering new cases. I have exited and re-accessed the app, and still don't see it. I have the MS CRM for dummies book, not much help for what I'm doing. Is there a utility that needs to be run to 'push' these updates out? Thanks, Don Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30744

    - Add column "accounts" to activities Hello there, I'm using the Sales-for-Outlook and want to monitor if all colleagues are using the program correctly. One of the things I've got to look at is whether they link a CRM-activity to an account in the Regarding-field. As far as I can see, the only way to do this is by clicking on each activity and look whether the Regarding-field contains (the right) items. It would be much easier if I could add a column, which contains the accounts filled in in the Regarding-field, to the total activity-list. Does anybody know if this is possible and if so, how can I do this? OK, thanks in advance!!!! Greetz H. Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30719

    - launch query on new thread? Using csharp/asp.net and the SDK, I want to launch a process containing a long-running CRM query on a new thread. I don't care about waiting for an async callback, because the new thread will write its status to the cache, so I just launch the new thread with thread.Start(). Problem is, the new thread doesn't appear to have permission to execute a CRM fetch; I get an http 401 error. It executes a crm login right before that without a problem though. I'm guessing this is because the new thread doesn't run in the same security context as the thread that launched it, but I don't know how to determine this or what to do about it. The web folder is already configured for windows authentication, and anonymous access is not allowed. If I run the very same code without spawning a new thread, it works great. Anyone got some tips?

    - Print quote + export to word + save as + create note w/attach Hi all, I would like to know if anybody has already done something similar, even using some (cheap) commercial program. The main goal is to add a button on the quote form (as explained previously in this group) that should: - invoke Crystal Report in a "silent mode" passing some parameters (quote ID, folder name to say where to put the exported report, etc.) and telling CR to export the report in Ms Word format to the folder specified; - create a note with the Word file attached. I am sure the last step is very easy, but I cannot figure out about the first one. I think that editing a quote in Ms Word format prior to send it to the customer should be one of the easiest activities of a salesman, and with this product seems to be a bit too complex... Another way could be to use SFO and the "Print quote for customer" function, with the mail merge feature, but in this case if you added some fields to the offer you can not use those new fields, and your customer will not be happy so much. I waited also for the Office Information Bridge Framework for CRM, and for something called "Accelerator for Proposal" (mmh, the name was exactly was I was looking for...), but I discovered that the MOIBF for CRM only "exposes" account, contacts, and so on, and we are still waiting for the Accelerator. At the end, I decided to post this message, hoping in your help... Thank you in advance, Ruben. Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30657

Scribe Insight 2. Write SDK Calls 3. Update the database table directly in SQL (unsupported) Does anyone know of any other options? Thanks Lee Tag: Tax - Automating Calculations ? Tag: 30642

Is it possible to set an automated tax calculation for the tax field that
appears within the Quotes entry screen ? It seems that for each product
entered against a quote the tax needs to be calculated and entered manually.

Is there a setting buried within the Settings anywhere for standard tax
rates ?
