    - Create an Iframe to point to an entity's related View Hi Guys is it possible to create an Iframe that points to a custom entity's related view? For example Cutom Entity A has a relationship with contact (contact is the primary) I want to create an Iframe elsewhere in CRM that will show me the assosicated view of the custom Entity when I pass it the contact object id. All I seem to be able to do is get the full entity view which shows me ALL the contacts not just the one I want :( Tag: Email merge to muliple contacts no ability to attach a file Tag: 70737

    - external connector Hi, I am just wondering what kind of license we would need if we are to create an online system that will integrate with MS CRM 3.0. The online system will have its own database. We would like to integrate our database with the CRM db. Clients will access the system through the internet. Do we need the external connector license for us to access the data on CRM? Like write data from our db to CRM db and vice versa? Thanks!

    - No Settings tab in browser? - NOT a repost! I'm an admin on the CRM server, and am listed in the CRM users list as a System Administrator. I know about the issue with having Outlook CRM open at the same time. On my workstation, I have no settings tab regardless of whether Outlook is open or not. I even uninstalled the CRM client and rebooted, with no luck. I *can* see the settings tab in the web interface when I open the web interface via IE on the actual server where CRM is installed. But not on my own workstation. My co-worker is also a CRM admin, and can see the Settings tab just fine on his workstation. He has never installed the CRM client, however. Suggestions?

    - Converting Lead to an Opportunity Hi, I have a strange situation here: When we convert a lead into an opportunity, we have to specify "Potential Customer". This field is mandatory and Lead cannot be converted into an opportunity without selecting a potential customer. Moreover, when I select a potential customer using lookup (or by adding a new one), the customer gets added into Accounts. This does not make sense to me. All I am doing is simple converting a lead into an opportunity. It is still an opportunity and not a customer (or account). I am not yet doing any business with them. So why should it be added as an account? The problem is, if I get 100 opportunities everyday, all of them will be added into my Accounts and they will be displayed in all account related reports and views and everywhere else. Is there any workaround to this problem? thanks. Tag: Email merge to muliple contacts no ability to attach a file Tag: 70722

    - Data manipulation without Scribe I know Scribe is the preferred tool, but in order to help my understanding of options, and system capabilities, I am wondering: How would one go about doing complex data manipulation with MSCRM data? i.e. Mass merging of duplicates, migrating tables including their record relationships, etc?. I am not sure if I read this somewhere, but I have gotten the feeling that it is not supported (or dissasterous) to work with the data from the SQL backend. Is this so? If Scribe did not exist, how would we work with the data? Are there other parts of the system that would need modification, for example. I have very experience with working with SQL at the moment.

    - Accessing products off-line Hi, Facing the following issue. Company sells products. Every country has its own products, so country specific products exist. Loading them all into MS CRM is an option. However, since ' real' sales objects such as quotes, orders and or invoices are not used, there is no real need to put them in. On a new entity, however, a link to a ' product' is needed, so we used an itermediate entity to lookup a product and thus create (fake) a many to many relationship. There are to many clicks needed to fulfill this task as sometimes many products need to be linked to this new entity. What might be the solution for this? Linked picklist that check on the user's and or customer's country and then prepopulates a country specific picklist which eliminates the values in another picklist is one option. Does anyone have some ideas? Of course, off-line availability is one of teh challenges.. M Tag: Email merge to muliple contacts no ability to attach a file Tag: 70674

    - Using the Competitor entity Guys, I'm trying to figure out what to do. The MS-CRM competitor entity treats the competitor as is, whereas, i feel like it's important to be able to really see what products does he has and which one is competing (againt me) in a certain opportunity. Did anyone faced the same? I tried to bypass it by creating a new entity call "competitor products" (becuase the products that show on the competitor drill down are my products) and i hooked it up to the opportunity entity. However, the problem is that i need to be able to "choose" the competing product in the opportunity, rather than adding it... any thought will be appreciated Tag: Email merge to muliple contacts no ability to attach a file Tag: 70664

I already have installed SharePoint Server, IIS, ISA, Exchange and Live Communications server - everything is running perfectly fine with no problems at all. SQL reporting services are already installed and working perfectly fine. When trying to install CRM 3.0 Small Busniess Edition I get the following error: "Setup failed to validate specified Reporting Services Report Server http://MYSERVERNAME/reportserver. Error: Client found response content type of 'text/html; charset=utf-8', but expected 'text/xml'. The request failed with the error message:...." Here is a copy of the error in the Application Event log: "17204 : FCB::Open failed: Could not open device d:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\COMPANY_NAME_METABASE.mdf for virtual device number (VDN) 0." I have found a KB article that overcomes installation on a SBS that already has SQL reporting services installed but I end up with exactly the same error when working through this. If anyone can help me overcome this problem it would be very much appreciated. Many thanks in advance, CambiNet Man. Tag: Email merge to muliple contacts no ability to attach a file Tag: 70629

If we do a mail merge to multiple contacts the merge process which utilises
Word doesn't allow us to attach a file. At least 50% of our email
communications to our marketing lists require attached files to the emails.
We have to create a spreadsheet of the view and save the email address which
we paste into an Outlook email then attach the file and send. This by-passes
the history record against the contact. Can this be fixed ?
