    - Case ID v/s Email tracking token CRMers, When you create a case for a support email, by default the generated case id is of the form CAS-number-suffix. When a support person replies to the email, the CRM system automatically adds an email tracking token to the subject line. This email tracking token is not the same as the case id. Questions: 1. Why can't the email tracking token be the same as the case id? Won't it make sense to use case id to track emails for a given support case? 2. Even if they are different, how can I disable automatic placement of tracking token on the subject line? We do not wish to confuse the customers with two tokens. The case ID should be the only token. When I open a support case with Microsoft, the standard "new case acknowledgement" email that I receive from Microsoft actually has the case id and not the email tracking id. This is the way it should be. Thank you in advance for your help. Pradeep Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58301

    - How to measure telemarketing team's performance? CRMers, The way we measure the performance of any person in the telemarketing team is purely by the number of calls and emails the person has made in a week. Here is what we need: 1. Number of newer leads/opportunities contacted for the week - EMail - Phone calls 2. Number of emails and phone calls made to existing leads/opportunities How can I get this information from MS CRM? Thank you in advance for your help. Pradeep Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58299

    - Steps to create a case from a support email CRMers, When we get a support email from a customer, it moves to the support queue and is assigned to a support person. This works. Now, I am trying to understand how to create a case out of this email and am a bit confused. I would appreciate it if someone can help me with the following questions. Q1. When an email is received in the queue, you can double-click it and associated the "From" address to a contact. So far so good. However, to create a case out of the email, I don't see any option anywhere. There is a menu item to create a new case. However, in this case, I have to copy the subject line from the email into the title for the case. I also need to once again specify the customer. This is slightly painful. Is there an easier way I missed? Q2. Once a case is created, now I see two items in my "IN progress" queue - the original email and the new case that I just created. How do I associate the email to this case? Thank you in advance for enlightening me. Pradeep Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58289

    - Contract versus contract lines... CRMers, For our business, customers get one year standard support when they purchase a product (it is a software application). Therefore, I created a contract template with "coverage dates" as the allotment. The next step is to create a contract for a customer. This also seemed straightforward. However, it order to convert the contract from draft status to invoice status, I now am required to create a new contract line. Q1. Why do I need a new contract line when I already specified the necessary information in the contract itself. The most important information was the start and the end date for the contract and that has already been specified. Q2. When I create the contract line, I am required to enter Total Cases/Minutes. The contract template clearly states that this contract is of "coverage dates" type. Why then do I need to enter total cases/minutes? Q3. Contract line also makes it mandatory to enter the pricing for the contract. What is it that I must enter here? One year warrantly is a standard part of the product. The product is priced, not the contract. Entering a value of $0 does not work. $0.01 works though. It that what one must use? Thank you in advance for your help.

    - Adding User in CRM 3.0 Mixed Mode Hi, I just finished installed CRM 3.0 in mixed mode. When i used deployment manager in order to add CRM users, no domain was found. In this case, i just could add the user manually from the settings tab on the form. Imagine if there are 70 users and i have to type manually. Is it intended behaviour in CRM 3.0 when implementing it in mixed mode?? As i believed when i set the native CRM, i did not encounter this problem. Using Deployment manager, I could find the domain and it's easier for me to add the user there. Or are there any hints in order to add users on mixed mode?? Carrie Tag: How to customize the case id?

    - Campaign Templates I'm trying to figure out how to use Campaign Templates, or at least some copyable framework for a campaign that I can copy over and over again each time I have a tradeshow, promotion, or whatever else. Campaigns are set up to do this or at least it looks that way but they don't accomplish my task. Maybe I'm using it incorrectly but it seems pretty straight forward. Here's what I've done. 1. Create a New Campaign Template from the Campaign screen. 2. Fill in the form information desired and click save. 3. Now I set up the activities that I want as part of my template so that I don't have to recreate them every time I do a campaign. 4. I save the campaign template and I go and look at my activities and low and behold the planning and campaign activities that I created in the template are in my Open Activities view even though a real campaign has not been created nor started. 5. So, my next thought was fine, skip the template and just copy existing campaigns that have been completed. 6. I tried completing the planning tasks and copying the template and that is not allowed. I have to delete the completed activities in order to copy the template as a template or real campaign. So, to me it seems like all the Campaign Template is good for is the form information and not intended to be used to copy activites as well. Yes it does copy activities over but not the way I would think it would (make a real activity from a place holder that is not a real activity). I don't see why real activities are created from template campaigns. Campaigns can be used very effectively on a one off basis but if you want to copy over to a new campaign this don't seem to occur logically. Maybe my logic is skewed, I don't know. If any one can explain this to me and help me figure out a way to use campaign templates like any other template with out of the box functionality I would greatly appreciate it. If it can't be done it can't be done and that's ok, I just need to know my options. Thanks, Fronk Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58257

    - Error when bulk emailing Here is the error as summarized to me by one of our techs: There is a feature where you can send bulk email and make it look like it came from another person or queue (whatever that is). User has tested that feature successfully in the past by sending a message to himself and he made it look like it came from one of the other sales persons. Today he was trying to us that feature for the first time in a real message. The message was destined to about 75 recipients, but when he tried to send it, this error (attached) came up, and once that error comes up, he can?t do anything in CRM. Even if he closes IE and reopens it, he can?t logon. The error comes up right away. I think after his web session times out (20 minutes) he will be able to logon again, because that?s what we observed earlier.

    - Restricting the Case Lookup Is there a way to prevent resolved cases from appearing in the case lookup? Specifically... Create an email in Outlook. Click the 'Track in CRM' button. Click the 'Regarding' button. Change the 'Look For' to Cases. Currently this lookup displays all cases with no restrictions. I would like to restrict this to only show active cases.

    - .NET 2.0 and CRM Hi all, We had a client that had access to their calenders, then one morning (after their IT guy applied updates to their server, inc .NET 2.0) they could use all parts of CRM but not the calenders. They just recieved a not available error. I read some posts that said that .NET 2.0 when installed on CRM server or workstation can cause the calender to be unavailable. I informed the client to remove .NET 2.0 and put on .NET 1.1 with SP1. He has not yet done that but weirder again it now is available, the following morning, without change. Has anyone seen this or know how/why this happened inscase it happens again and I need to look into it. Cheers, Nathan Warner Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58161

    - How do you e-mail a person when a case is assigned to a person. In our case form we have a drop down box with some names put in. How would a person make an event that would be smart enough to know what name is being selected and then e-mailing that person so they know a case has been selected for them? Thanks in advanced!

    - MS SQL Server takes 100% cpu Alright, everyone has posted different slow CRM questions. Mine will be extremely specific. My organization runs CRM 3.0 with a pretty good sized database, size in my opinion should not matter, remember infinite scalability? Primarily with the Outlook 2003 add-in. Alright so they have an 'Offline Client', usually that means you'll be running on a laptop, or atleast that is how it is here. With 1.4 GHz and 1 Gig of memory exactly how does MS expect people to support a MS SQL server locally? It pegs the CPU, makes outlook a hog and the machine is virtually useless until 2-5 minutes after boot, and Outlook is slow even after completing the boot process. Both the sqlserver process and the helper process peg the cpu at different times. My question is, how do we make these laptops, with these necessary CRM apps on them, run at a reasonable pace. Is there some way to improve efficiency, or lower priority of the sqlserver, but my thought is that would only slow Outlook queries even more. So I guess the mobile/offline version of CRM makes a decent small form laptop useless. MS recommends going SQL32 on the server, but offline that won't stop the cpu from going to 100%, also increasing memory won't get the cpu to run more cycles so these fixes are BS. We can't be (and I am sure are not) the only people with this issue and MS still doesn't believe that it is as slow as it is. Do they test in a high-end environment for 25 minutes and then say we are ready to ship? I mean how did they not see that 'mobile laptops + sql server != good idea'. Seriously any solutions or ideas would be more than appreciated. Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58142

    - Role Permissions to allow Sending an Email for a Lead I've been slowly locking down my users' access in CRM 3.0, and must have done a very good job. They USED to be able to click send email and the email would go out through CRM, and get logged. Now, when they try to send an email, they get an error that they don't have sufficient permissions to view this record or perform this action. I've looked high and low, and can't figure out what role/security controls this. Does anyone have any ideas? thanks! Tag: How to customize the case id? Tag: 58131

    - Migrating from CRM 1.2 to 3.0 Hello, I have a question about migrating data from 1.2 to 3.0. I do not really want to do an upgrade, but if it's the best option so be it. With the new abilities in CRM 3.0 for creating custom entities and attributes, I want to move a lot of our existing 1.2 data to new custom entities/attributes that better match their purpose in our system. My question is the best way to do this. Basically I see two scenarios: 1. Use the DMF to map all the existing data to the new locations on a new 3.0 system. This seems like the option to go with, however I am not sure how to maintain relationships between things like accounts and their activities/notes. I need to set a new unique ID in the CDF for each entity and I'm not sure how to relate these new IDs between entities. 2. The second option would be to upgrade everything to 3.0, and then move data around once it is upgraded. One of the big problems I see for my situation is that I need to turn all leads into accounts. Is there a way to qualify all leads into accounts in some sort of bulk fashion? Any ideas or potential troubles with what I am thinking will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

CRMers,

When a new case is created, CRM automatically generates an id of the
form CAS-number-suffix. Is there a way to customize this so that it
looks more like: CASYYMMDDnnnnnn where YY, MM and DD represent the date
the case was created and nnnnnn is the unique id for the day?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Not using the default existing number field but you can create a new field
and a postcreate callout to generate the number for you.
