    - First user in morning takes long time to open CRM windows Customer has noticed a pattern for the first peson to access CRM in the day. It takes a very long time to open first CRM window. Then it works quickly all day, but there are some entities that then take a long time to open. It is almost like the .NET code is being recompiled each morning? or else the database has to load some indexes. Guessing here. Server is not the fastest. But this is a problem because they are reporting 30 - 45 seconds for this delay. Any ideas on how to prevent this? What it is? Tag: CRM 4.0 data migration manager install problem Tag: 99912

    - contact subset when lookup Hi all, I have several custom entities that enable the user to assign to the form one of the contacts of the account related firm. However, when the user want to select one of the contact persons (let's say there are five contact persons in that company) he is directed to a lookup of *ALL* the contacts in the CRM. Those custom entites are 1(Account) to many (some custom entity). It seems that the custom entity doesn't know the contacts of the Account firm which is related to. How do I confine the lookup to only subset of contacts that are relevant to the particular company? Tag: CRM 4.0 data migration manager install problem Tag: 99911

    - Syncronising contacts by relationship type Hi all. I am using CRM 4 with the outlook client. My contacts syncronise perfectly however I also want to see all the contacts for our partners (which are created by another user). I tried to setup the data group options in the CRM add-in in outlook but the contact will not replicate. Please could someone advise how I setup this data group. Basically I need all accounts and contacts that are marked as the relationship type "partner" Thanks Paul -- Posted by NewsLook (Trial Licence) from http://www.ghytred.com/NewsLook/about.aspx Tag: CRM 4.0 data migration manager install problem Tag: 99910

    - after 4.0 upgrade emails are no longer being associated with cases We have a workflow rule that automatically fires whenever a new case is created to send an email with the case number, owner, etc. to the customer. When we were running MSCRM 3.0, the automated email would be automatically associated with the case. That is, the Emails regarding field would automatically be filled in with the associated case. After a recent upgrade to 4.0, the workflow rules still fire and emails still get automatically created when a case is created, but the regarding field is blank. Our support reps now have to go into the Contact record, find the automated email, and manually update so that the regarding field is the associated case. Obviously, I am catching a lot of grief, both from the reps for the extra labor involved and from management because of the process being so error prone. I'd rather not have to write code to fix this. I'm hoping that 1) there is some configuration step that I can take to get the 3.0 behaviour or 2) MS admits it is a bug and releases a fix. Any and all help is appreciated. BTW, I've tried CRM Queue Manager by manso, and it works really well, but I'd rather manage the automated email response in CRM if I can.

    - Paste data into Knowledge Base in 4.0 We have a client that actively uses the knowledge base. To create new articles in 3.0 they frequently used the copy and paste function to get the data into the template. In 4.0 this causes CRM to lock up, run slow, take forever to save, take forever to open (if it ever does save) and generally behave in an unacceptable manner. The only way we have gotten this to work at all is with a plain text document. Any formatting in Word or Excel, and it does not function. Has anyone else seen this? Any thoughts on how we can address to make functional? Bill Tag: CRM 4.0 data migration manager install problem Tag: 99899

    - can't select field in view to move or set properties Ever had this problem? Got to be the strangest thing. Well, I found the answer and have to give credit to Mitch Milan's blog and apparaently Nithya Balasubramanian for finding the problem. The problem is when customizing a view you can't select a field to move it to the right or left or edit the width. Here is the answer: http://blogs.infinite-x.net/2007/11/10/solution-to-unable-to-edit-view-columns/ In case this link doesn't work the answer is simply and quite strangely adding about:blank to your trusted sites or to the local intranet site depending on what zone your crm site is in. -- Thanks, Brian Tag: CRM 4.0 data migration manager install problem Tag: 99894

    - Reports problem 401 Unauthorized error Hi all My reports used to work on a 3 server installation until recently. The only thing that has happened (as far as I know) is a powercut at our offices when the servers shut down rather unceremoniously. I suspect this may be a red herring though. I have a test CRM server that I just installed and it too gets an error accessing the reports (and cannot access the systems settings either (same as production server)). I have set up the new test CRM web server to have full delegation for any service (this was previously in place for the production server and the reporting server), but I am still unable to get anywhere. the URL is the registry is correct and pointing to the correct reporting server. I have fixed this once before, but cannot remember how. Can anyone help please? Thanks Saira Tag: CRM 4.0 data migration manager install problem Tag: 99893

    - Limiting Security Role Assignment My question regards the ability of an administrator to assign the System Administrator security role to any user. We want to give select users the ability to manage the business users for our CRM instance. This includes creating user records, and assigning various security roles to them. However, we don't want the person with this role to have the ability to customise CRM forms and suchlike. It seems though that we cannot prevent anyone with the the Assign Role privilege from being able to assign any role (including System Administrator) to anyone they wish, including themselves. Is there any way to reduce the risk of this, by restricting the ability of a business administrator to only assign roles of equal or lesser power than they already have?

    - crm 3 outlook forward as attachment rule removing attachment in original message. CRM 3 Exchange 2003 Has anybody else come across this problem please? I have just found a strange thing. This organisation receives many 'Safety' related emails each day from a large Mining Client. The emails are sent from the Mining Client to us by 'forwarding as an attachment' so the actual email we receive is an attached .msg file. Problem definition Emails are 'forwarded as an attachment' from outside this organisation to a crm user: The attachment on the received email is truncated to between 60 bytes and 200 bytes and is of course unreadable. There is an email in sent items caused by the crm 'forward as attachment' rule; the attachment on this email can be read correctly here. If an email is forwarded as an attachment from within the organisation to a crm user then the attachment is ok. (looking into this to see if the crm rule is applied in this case) The problem is reproducible. Solution Removing the crm forward rule solves the problem. Notes. As far as I can tell, this is not a CRM problem but an outlook problem. The problem doesn't occur when a crm user manually forwards a message as an attachment, only when a message that is forwarded as an attachment from outside the organisation to the crm user has a local outlook forward as an attachment rule applied. I am doing further testing but removing the rule definitely solves the problem. Any comments would be appreciated. regards, Daniel Beale.

    - Can Lookup Attributes be Updated using CRM 4.0 Data Import? I wrote some code that uses the CRM 4.0 Data Import functionality to process files that create and update data for custom entities I have created. It was confusing to figure out because of the sparse documentation but it seemed to be working nicely until I noticed that when ImportModeCode is Update the entity attributes that are Lookups don't seem to be getting updated. For example, I created a custom entity named new_lease that has a new_territoryid lookup attribute that looks up it's data from the territory entity. The code populates the new_territoryid value when importing leases and ImportModeCode is CREATED; however, it does not change the territory when importing leases when ImportModeCode is UPDATE. It's not just territory-related lookups that are failing - others such as those to Contacts and Accounts don't work either. No error is thrown and the rows show as "Leases Updated" under the System Job. Other non-lookup-type columns on the entities are being updated with values in the files. Is there some reason that Lookup Attributes cannot be UPDATED using Data Import functionality as is documented in the SDK? Any advice is greatly appreciated....

A couple other people and myself are Admins and we can still access reports OK. The other users cannot see the report icon from the Accounts form, for example. When they access Reports under My Work, they get a blank form instead of the list of all reports. The only things I remember changing since it was last working are: - Rearranging most users in business units and changing which BU was parented by which. - I published the reports using VS2003 so now they are visible from http://crm-server/reports/ I don't know whether this affected the reports icon!

    - 4.0 Internet Facing Deployment Signin.aspx page targets wrong url (no I've set up an IFD and everything is working fine, except that "targeturl" parameter is missing the port number for the CRM website. When you open the CRM server external url in IE (https:// <organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:5555/), you're redirected to this url: https://<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:5555/signin.aspx?targeturl=https%3a%2f%2f<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com%2fdefault.aspx However, the correct url should be: https://<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:5555/signin.aspx?targeturl=https%3a%2f%2f<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com%3a5555%2fdefault.aspx Notice that the correct url has "%3a5555" which is the port number. So after the user logs in, they are directed to https://<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:443 and not https://<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:5555 like they should be, and they get a 404, since the CRM server does not expose port 443 (another server routes all 5555 traffic to port 443 of the CRM server.) HOWEVER: if instead of using the url: "https:// <organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:5555/" the user instead uses "https://<organizationname>.<subdomain>.<domain>.com:5555/ signin.aspx" then the user does not get the "?targeturl" appended to the address, port 5555 sticks to the url, and everything works fine. Anyone know how to fix this? How does the "targeturl" parameter get set? I'd like to avoid putting a forwarding page on port 443 of the exposed server to the appropriate signin page.

I have created successfully a 4.0 CRM install and all runs fine. (Its on a
new clean virtual windows 2003 system, 32 bit)

I wanted to load the sample data so I needed to install the data migration
manager to do so. The install hangs on the fact that I not not have C++
runtime of min 8.x installed. But I do. I've installed the C++ 2005 and
2008 runtime distributions and they appear to have installed correctly. I
just installed a visual studio 2008 with C++ to try that. The data migration
installer still wants a C++ runtime installed.

Where does that installer think C++ should be installed to?

Is there any other way to properly install the sample data other than the
data migration manager. I'm stuck at this point after a few days of
trying...

Hi Rick,
Had you tried installing VCDebug redist available in DVD available under
Redist folder. Or try installing VC from
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91355&clcid=1033.
Please let me know in case after following the above steps you are still
getting the error.

Thanks & Regards,
Veera
