    - sales standard process and the effect of manual probability changes Hi all, We use the sales standard process for our opportunities. Through the onChange Event (Javascript) the sales stage code affects the probability. E.g. (stages & probability) 00-Not Started - 0% 01-Contact - 5% 02-Initial Meeting - 10% etc. So if a user selects stage 01 from the sales stage code picklist the probability field gets the value of 5%. However, we've discovered that if a user first selects a stage and then MANUALLY changes the probability, the onChange Event no longer affects the probability. Is there a way to keep the onChange Event working, although a user has manually changed the probability once or twice (because the default probability for the stage was not appropriate)? Or does a one-time overrule means that the probability will stick to the applied value (although you'd expect it to change onwards along with the change of stage)? Thank you for replying.

    - Deployment tool cannot publish customization I've re-installed my CRM using existing databases on a website I created with port number 4000 (As prep for deploying CRM Mobile). Everything works fine except the deployment tool cannot publish customizations. I select the module to publish, try to add a CRM server to publish from and the deployment tool puts up a dialogue saying 'Looking for a CRM Server...' and then waits for ever. I've also noticed that the Workflow Manager and Monitor only find the server if I tell it to use the servername:portnumber rather than just the servername. I've probably broken some install rule but can't quite work out which one. Any ideas? TIA -- Simon Morris Tag: include a link to an opportunity record in a workflow email Tag: 36389

    - Reassigning orders I have the following set up. Organization : business units (BU1) and (BU2) User1 belongs to BU1 and User2 belongs to BU2. The aim is to let User1 manage accounts and create orders and then assign the orders (after manual review) to User2. The constraint is, once the order is reassigned to User2, User1 should not be allowed to edit the order. I am trying to achieve this by following these steps: 1. Assign a role to User1 so that (s)he can update orders that belong to him/her only. 2. User1 logs in and creates an order. 3. User1 assigns the order to User2. 4. Admin logs in and removes User1 from the sharing list for the order. Thus, User2 now is the sole owner of the order. Now, User2 is able to access the order, which is what I want. But I am surprised to find that User1 can still modify the order. IS there any rule that creators of entities will always be able to edit it? Am I doing something wrong? The goal is to let a group of people create orders and then let another group of people manage the same. Any help is appreciated.

Only one of these 4 have the ability to receive incoming mails from the internet whereas all 4 can send email to the internet. So all mails that come to the organization are routed through that specific Exchange Server. I wanted some inputs on the placement of the CRM router, as to where all should the router be placed so that there is effective tracking of CRM Mails (so that the mail can be converted to a CRM Email activity - both incoming and outgoing mails) and we dont lose out on any information. thank you Tag: include a link to an opportunity record in a workflow email Tag: 36369

I am having a problem with the fact that I can not change the owner of an account with out it changing the owner of any open or existing cases or activities. Yes, you might want the owner to trickle down but it is my customer care groups that have all these open tickets,not the sales team.

If a contact needs to be shared between more than one Salesperson, can that contact be synchronized with their SFO?

But if a contact is assigned to a user, synchronized with SFO (go offline and then back online), and then the contact is reassigned to another user, will the original SFO user still synchronize with the contact they once owned?

Hi all,

On this newsgroup I've read that a hyperlink can be included in a
workflow email for a case record. This hyperlink will open the related
record directly.

The recommended link to put in the email:
<a href="http://crm/CS/cases/edit.aspx?id=&incident.incidentid;">Case
&incident.ticketnumber;</a>

Now I'd like to do the same thing for an workflow email about an
opportunity record.

This is the link I included in the email:
<a href="http://crm/SFA/opps/edit.aspx?id=&opportunity.opportunityid;">opportunity</a>

Unfortunately, this one is not working.

What changes does this link need to function properly?

Thank you for replying.

That should work fine. I tried it out. Are you using it in a workflow for an
Opportunity or for something else, like a lead or contact? It will only work
if the workflow rule is triggered by an event for Opportunities.
