    - Contact Addresses There should be a check box on the contact card to "always update address info with parent." Unless I am missing something, if one of our customers moves, I have a to manually go in and update EVERY single contact associated with that account. The check box applies so that outside sales people (or other not in the main office) will not be updated. At minimum there should be a button or menu option to copy parent account address. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Printing Sales Orders Hi, Does anyone know how to change to print form when you are in a sales order and choose print? I can't seem to find it as a Crystal report form, and we need to modify it to contain our custom fields and somehow break it down to show each item on the sale order, not just the totals. This is critical for our sales people. Thanks! Shauna Tag: Unable to link the activities Tag: 43367

    - CRM Redeploy - unable to register security service - hotfix Scenario â?? MS CRM 1.2 installed and functional on DEV1 server. Related databases on separate database server. Purchased a new surver to host CRM. Need to install new instance of CRM on the new server that is attached to the existing database so as not to lose any customer data. Problem â?? Installation on new server failed. Message appeared saying â??unable to register security serviceâ??, which is a vital part of the application. CRM requires that all patches and hotfixes applied to the original server must be applied to the new server for redeployment as well. The event log message for the above mentioned error stated: Error: Incorrect or incompatible database version. If you have applied any patches or hotfixes for Microsoft CRM, please apply them to this server as well.-2147467259 (0x80004005) Description: Unspecified error Comments: Database Version: 1.2.3297.106 Installed Version: 1.2.3297.0 QFE number to apply: 0 There was a hotfix that was applied to DEV1. However, the hotfix requires that CRM Server be installed in order for it to be applied. So I installed CRM again, opting to ignore the error messages, then successfully applied the hotfix. I tried to uninstall/reinstall CRM again, but still received the same error. On the advice of some users on the MS CRM community boards, I added the service accounts to the â??Pre windows 2000 Compatabilityâ?? group in Active Directory. Did not help. Also made service account for main CRM service a domain admin, still no help (service account is no longer domain admin, but is still in pre win2k compato group.) Solution â?? After further digging, I found the buildversion table in the company_MSCRM database. It listed the build version and revision numbers in one row of data. The revision number can be changed when hotfixes are applied. That data apparently must match exactly that of the instance of CRM you are trying to install (when attaching to an existing database, of course) or the install will fail. The problem is that a fresh install of CRM has 0 for the revision number, so it will not match a previous install if there was a hotfix applied. However, you can not apply the hotfix to the new server until CRM is installed. This seems to be a catch 22. To get around this, I manually changed the revision number in the table back to 0 then attempted the install. It worked fine. I then reapplied the hotfix for good measure (though it wouldnâ??t let me reinstall the hot fix until I changed the revision number back to its original value, in this case 106). CRM then worked fine and the problem was solved. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Modified on dates I have a rather peculiar situation. Every time a record (Opp, Acct, Contact) is opened, the modified on date is updated to the current date and time. I know that updating roles will have an effect on the modified on date, and we are in the process of working with Tech Support to clear up some security descriptor issues. However, I cannot replicate this issue in any other environment I have worked in or have access to. Anybody else seen anything like this before? Thanks!

    - Dropdown and Popup Menus cut off through web interface. When I connect to CRM through IE6, some of the menus are incomplete. A couple of examples are: 1. The calendar popup is almost cut in half, so the right arrow on the top of the calendar is cut off. 2. Under the actions dropdown menu, at the bottom should be a menu item called Send Direct Email, but it's not showing up. This problem only happens when I'm logged in through my vpn on my home computer. When I log in from the office with my office computer, everything displays correctly.

    - How to register 8-CD "CRM Sales Advisor" Kit Hello, I recently registered as an MBS Partner. After discussing the "CRM Sales Advisor" program, MBS sent me an 8-CD CRM Package that was said to be a five-license kit for demonstration purposes. I can't figure out how to register it to get a License Number. I've successfully registered my MS Partner Action Pack CRM Package, but that one came with a usable 25-digit Product Key. THIS SET has no Product Key. Disk One has a yellow sticker that says: "Volume Licensing Customer. To use this product you will need a Business Solutions Registration Key. In order to obtain it, you must register this product at: http://www.microsoft.com/businesssolutions/msbregistration Please note that to obtain your key, you will need to have your License Agreement details. If you do not have these details, please contact your reseller to obtain them prior to registering.

    - Offer On Demand Web Demos For Product Installations Microsoft seems to sometimes work from a problem up approach in terms of how it posts information. I understand the reasoning behind this, but sometimes just having the information on how a successful installation should go is needed. I think it would be very beneficial if you offered "On Demand" Web Demonstrations for installing products such as MS CRM, Great Plains and other products. I think you would reduce a lot of problems and simple questions if you had an "On Demand" demonstration of how an installation should go. Then if an individual runs into an issue a user could click on some links of potential issues. This would direct an individual to a list of particular problems that they can research. This may sound like a simplistic approach, but sometimes less is more and getting just the basics demonstrated can go a long way. For example, demonstrate an installation of CRM server, and also do a demonstration of CRM Client for Outlook.

    - Exchange connector We moved our CRM deployment from one server to another server. Everything works well except the routing of the e-mails. The exchange connector is installed without problems. Mails however are not send and creates (unexpected) errors on the client. In KB861418, MS states that The Microsoft CRM Exchange E-mail Router is designed to work with one Microsoft CRM Server installation. During the installation process, you can add more than one Microsoft CRM Server in the wizard, but the router will only send e-mails to the first Microsoft CRM Server that is available. We never moved the CRM from the old server, but kept it there as a BackUp solution. Is the above mentioned KB article referring to actual active CRM-servers, or just any CRM server available?

    - The most annoying problem. Sales people are not negineers. They simply "don't have the time" to go off line before they are ready to catch a plane. The result of this is having to reload the CRM Outlook Add in a few times a month for users. Now I came accross one, where I reloaded the CRMAddin.dll, yet the forms don't show up inder froms mananger. The first CRM form does not come up, the folders do. How do I add the froms back? A<.

Loading activities can be troubleseom (as you have discovered). You need to
populate ActivityParty records as well as the activity itself. Each activity
type uses different data in the ActivityParty table, making it more difficult.

Best bet is to manaully create an activity, then look at the underlying data in
the database to seee what records were created in ActivityParty for each type,
then make sure those same records exist in the CDF prior to importing.
