    - MS CRM 4.0 query builder error - no entity Hi, I'm having a problem with the Mailmerge Template entity: I imported all customizations from one environment to another. When I want to open my mailmerge templates in the settings section i get following error: Query Builder Error No Entity I did not make any customizations to this entity, so I don't know what the problem can be. Following are the symptoms: - opening Wordmail merge templates from the settings area gives me the error above. - opening the entity from the customization section does not give me any errors: I can add attributes to forms and publish it, without any errors, I can even change the default view, and publish it without problems... - when I hit the word button from the accounts and want to select an "organization template', I get no results (the system does not return the default organization templates that should exist in the system) Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99656

    - Mail Merge to Case Functionality v4.0 Hi, I am currently working with a customer who has a requirement to be able to do direct mail merges (to documents) with information captured and stored within the case entity. I was very surprised that even though CRM v4.0 allows mail merges with other standard entities and all custom entities, the case entity is not one of these. This is a shame as I believe this should have been one of the primary entities in CRM that a user should be able to perform mail merges on since it handles enquiry management information and resolution - most of which need to be able to be sent back to the customer. Does anyone know of a way to enable the mail merge features for the case entity (ie. display the mail merge icon and option on the toolbars)? If not, can anyone provide any guidance with regards to an alternative way to allow users to do mail merge on a case? We have considered creating a custom entity off case from which we can do the mail merge on but don't think is a great option from a usability point of view ... ?? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated !! Thanks, Maryse Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99633

(I provide my Active Directory username and password). But when I enter the machine name, dynamics, it prompts for a log-in three times and then refuses access to the server. Also, when I connect to http://crm from the server itself, it works fine. How can I solve this problem? Thank you. Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99629

    - How to integrate CRM 4.0 with Great Plain 9.0 ? Hello everyone, My client would like to integrate between MS CRM 4.0 and GP 9.0. From my read on this forum, it looks like we have 3 options to accomplish:- 1. Use Scribe Insight 2. Use CRM/GP Connector : it is not released for CRM 4.0 from Microsoft yet. It might take about 3-6 months. 3. Develop custom I wonder if I choose to develop custom integration (option 3), what componenent I need to use for integration. I am a CRM developer so in my idea I might need to use CRM Web service to update / insert data into CRM but how about if I want to update / insert data into GP , how can I do that ? Does GP have web service I can call same concept as CRM ? Anyone has experience, please share. Thanks, AJ. Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99626

    - Business Management Error Move CRM 4.0 Database to Different Machi Hi, I have backed up a CRM 4.0 _MSCRM and MSCRM_Config database from one machine and restored both on another machine ( Which had been useing a test database). After restoring both databases on the new host I used the Deployment Manger to import the restored database. After completing the import when I attempt to open CRM I get an error message saying " Business Management Error The user ID associated the current record is not valid" From the server where I'm logged an as Administrator On client PC I get the following. Server Error in '/' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine. Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".  <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="Off"/> </system.web> </configuration> Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.  <configuration> <system.web> <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/> </system.web> </configuration> -- agilbert2003 Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99620

    - Dynamic Worksheets in Excel Does anyone know a good resource for digging deeper into how dynamic worksheets work with excel. I am able to find basic information that says you can export the dynamic worksheets, and with some more advanced techniques can even add and remove CRM columns from the worksheet. What I can't find is information on what the user can do to that worksheet in excel, such as adding additional columns that exist in the worksheet only and don't have a data source. And that the information in these columns remains in tact and associated with the appropriate row/record when the data is refreshed and new rows are added, or possibly removed. Or are these dynamic worksheets only meant to be reporting tools that you refresh and refer to. Does anyone have any experience with this or advice on better resources? Thanks!

    - CRM 4.0 Opportunity Product, Quote Product ... attribute mapping The Opportunity Product, Quote Product, Order Product, and Invoice Product entities cannot have attributes mapped through the sales pipeline. There appears to have been a fix for this for CRM 3.0 see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914921 I have tried using the Metadata Web Service (GetAppMetadataForEntity) to get more information ... http://[CRM_Instance_Name]/MSCRMServices/Metadata.asmx ... but the app fails when you provide an objectTypeCode with an internal server error 500 message A related problem exists with the inability to map Product information to the Opportunity Product entity. The Product Description and Description attributes can be added to the Opportunity Product views but there is not a way to populate these fields. There are key custom attributes which must be able to be mapped through the sales pipeline in our implementation which is a migration off of Siebel. Is anyone aware if MS is working on a fix or a workaround? I looked at the Workflow engine as well and there is no access to these entities. -- CRM Architect Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99613

    - Moving CRM 4 database to new SQL server? Hi! I'm trying to move the "OrgName_MSCRM" and the MSCRM_CONFIG to a new SQL server. This is how I go: - Disable Organization in Deployment Manager. - Copy Databases to the new server. - Attach databases at new server. - Edit Organization in Deploment Manager. - Wizard completes successfully. Then I want to remove the databases from the old SQL server to free up the diskspace. But when I detach the databases my CRM goes down. It says that the computer account "DOMAIN\COMPUTER$" does not have rights to the database. I have added the accounts that I found on the old server to the new. Do I have to change in the security on the databases to? Someone who has moved them successfully this way?

    - Perfect storm of a CRM upgrade I've just completed what, I believe, amounts to the perfect storm of an upgrade. The client was moving from SBS 2003 (not R2) on a virtual machine to a physical Windows 2003 64 bit server. They were also upgrading CRM3 SBS to CRM4 Professional. As SBS was running SQL 2000 and CRM3 does not run on 64 bit machines the database couldn't be easily moved from one to the other. So we have an upgrade, migration across domains and a move to 64 bit. The eventual path to success was the following: 1) Upgrade SQL 2000 to 2005 2) Upgrade CRM3 to CRM4 on the SBS virtual machine 3) Backup the database and transfer it to the new 64 bit server 4) Install CRM4 on the 64 bit server 5) Use deployment manager to attach the old database Points of note: * You can upgrade SBS SQL 2000 to 2005 but you may need to completely reinstall SRS as in my case the discs simply would not allow for SRS to be upgraded * If you get "Malformed XML Found in Microsoft Dynamics CRM Saved Queries" this could be an issue with the saved queries table but it could also be a permissions issue. In my case the user who had installed CRM was not the domain administrator. Upgrading as the domain admin did not cut it. Promoting the original user to a domain admin and upgrading did the trick * If you get "Action Microsoft.Crm.Setup.Server.InstallConfigDatabaseAction failed. Invalid user name. Failed to validate username for given domain. Only existing domain usernames and email addresses are allow" then try unplugging the network once the required components are installed. This cleared the error for me * On a 64 bit box, make sure you are running IIS in 64 bit mode and therefore ASP.Net is registered in 64 bit mode. If not, CRM will get past the pre-checks, start installing and then bomb out leaving a mess which cannot be repaired, uninstalled or installed over * The deployment manager can be used to add an organisation with the Professional license. It simply swaps out the default database for the new one and maps the users as usual (although, I again hit an issue with the setup user being someone other than domain admin. The error was "At least the setup user needs to be mapped before this organization can be imported". I had to swap map links to make it work) Good luck if you come across a similar situation ;) Leon Tribe Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99585

    - Jscript Error and Numeric Fields erasing upon lost focus Aarrghhhhhh! I am at my wits end with this one. I am getting the following error message when trying to customize a form by adding elements that has manifested itself recently (the only one in my company to have this issue). The worst part of it all (besides being able to manage CRM customization), is that in a regular form (i.e., opportunities) when a numeric amount is entered, the value is erased when the element loses focus (when I click save/close for example). Here is the error message, and what I (and my OPs guys) have tried. "An Error has occurred in the script on this page. Line: 18; Character: 1; Error: Automation Server cannot create object; Code: 0; url: http://crm01/Tools/FormEditor/Dialogs/addfields.aspx" It obviously does not display the next form properly.

    - Spouse tracking, linking in CRM We have a situation where both individuals of a married couple are in our Contacts table. We want to first be able to link the two people together on the form, and not in the relationships area. Any suggestions on doing a lookup from a Contact for another contact to display the contact name? Once the link is made, we would want to open the other person's form (similar to opening an account from the contact form). A similar situtation might be tracking the pain chain in an organization - this person reports to their manager. Link the two together. Secondly, if we can do that, can we also populate some spouse fields on the form for things other than the spouse name (like birthdate, membership status, etc?) -- Steve Luc Senior Consultant InfoGrow Corp (330)929-1353 x222 Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99557

    - CRM 1.2 to 3 I have a CRM1.2 database which has been put onto an SQL2005 server in SQL 2000 compatability mode. The site it was at was migrating from SQL 2000 and the CRM1.2 system was no longer in user, so they moved the database (backup from old server and resotre to new) over to the new server before getting rid of the old one. Is there any way this database can be upgraded to use CRM v3 (and then onto v4) I know 1.2 isnt supported on SQL 2005, so I cant install 1.2 for this upgrade process. The old SQL 2000 machine is no longer available, and the backup taken prior to the move has gone as well. Hitesh -- Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99554

If a customer has both, that already upgraded to Dynamics 10 on sql 2000, cannot upgrade CRM, due to them dropping support on sql 2000.

    - Field inheritance from account to contact Hi, I see that CRM 3.0 only inherits the main phone no. (telephone1 attribute) from Account to a new Contact to that Account. I cannot find the code doing that under field events, form events or view events. My intention is to duplicate that behavior for other fields (such as fax no.), so does anyone know how this is done by CRM for telephone1 attribute? Thanks Dan Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99528

    - Setting up the CRM email router for inbound/email email capture? Hi all. Setup the email router on the exchange server however it doesnt seem to work as expected. What I am trying to acheive is that all users who send email via outlook the email gateway will now that this is a contact on CRM and tag the email. When looking CRM the email will then show as an activity, when the user replies the reply needs to be tagged against the contact. In the configuration do you need to setup inbound/outbound profiles for each user or is this global for each user account? Thus I have one of these for inbound and one for outbound, one deployment and then attach this to the relevant user? Thanks Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99524

    - Proxy Error 407 We recently installed a business card scanner to import data into MS CRM 3.0 The following error message is received "The request failed with HTTP status 407: Proxy Authentication Required". Our Security mgr observed the proxy activity and stated that the software is not making any internet access attempts but trying to access an internal server. He concluded that this could be a configuration issue either of the CRM server itself or in the client software. Is there a specific place within the CRM server or application where I need to enter credentials for the proxy? Has anyone ever run into this error? Tag: Outlook Client Tag: 99520

    - Successful Duplicate Detection Okay... We have a CRM 4.0 deployment - the problem is that when a duplicate detection job completes succesfully and the user receives the notification that the job completed successfully it reflects the wrong server URL. The URL in the display below actually refers to a staging environment. I'm at a loss to explain where this URL came from. Does the discovery service play a role in this? http://SAL-IIS-01:5555/USDEV/tools/asyncoperation/edit.aspx?id={00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} should be: http://YAL-IIS-01:80/USCORP/tools/asyncoperation/edit.aspx?id={00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} I have a case open with Microsoft to troubleshoot this - and will update the resolution on this usenet group.

Ooutlook has SP3 but whenever I try the offline functionality it will "send
error report" and then restart outlook.
