Hi

I have some JavaScript which has code such as:

	LookupFieldObject = Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get('ser_accountid');
	if (LookupFieldObject.getValue() !== null)
	{
		EntityId = LookupFieldObject.getValue()[0].id;
		EntityName = LookupFieldObject.getValue()[0].entityType;
		result = RetrieveEntityById(EntityName,EntityId, 'ser_ResellerId'); //note case sensitive

Then within RetrieveEntityById we use the REST endpoint and XrmsvcToolkit:

	//correct for brackets around guid

	if (prmEntityIdValue.charAt(0) == "{")
	{
		prmEntityIdValue = prmEntityIdValue.substring(1, 37);
	}prmEntityName=prmEntityName.charAt(0).toUpperCase()+prmEntityName.substring(1);
	var res = null;
	XrmSvcToolkit.retrieve(
	{
		entityName : prmEntityName,
		id : prmEntityIdValue,
		async : false,
		select : prmEntityColumns,
		successCallback : function (result)

We use this in cases where the Id sometimes has brackets and sometimes not - this seems to matter. However the main point is that we need typically to change the name of the entity retrieved in EntityName to capitalise the first letter. So that EntityName has say 'account' and we need to change to Account so that the Rets query is against AccountSet - it is case sensitive. This is typically the case, but I have found for a custom entity (ser_salesorder) this is not the case - so the above code fails.

I could of course put the name of the account set as a parameter but this is a pity. Also in some code we might have several possibilities. Why this inconsistency and come to that why is REST case sensitive? BTW this is Rollup 12 Premise on a test deployment to prepare for upgrading our system to Rollup 12.

Of course I could use SOAP but for this sort of thing REST so much easier and perhaps faster.

Am I missing something obvious here? BTW I should say I really like XrmsvcToolkit - compact and nice to use.

Thanks

How can i get the errorcode of my InvalidPluginExecutionException in a catch statement? The errorcode of the FaultException is not equal to the errorcode of the InvalidPluginExecutionException.

public InvalidPluginExecutionException ( OperationStatus status, int errorCode, string message)

try
{...}
catch (FaultException<Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault> ex)
{
 var errorcode = ex.Detail.ErrorCode;
}

Hey,

I am trying to implement some field level security on a clients CRM 2011. I set up some field security profiles, but they are not doing exactly what they want.

On the account entity, they have a field that basically links a user to that account, kind of like an owner of the account. They want a few people to have full access to this field, which I have set up in the field security profiles.

The problem is, they also want regular users to be able to write to this field, but only if there is not already data in it. So I set a field security profile for regular users to be able to read, and update only. What happened, is that crm treats the field as being 'created' when the record is created, regardless if there is any data in it. So unless the regular user is creating the record, they cannot write to the field at all.

I am wondering if there is some javascript, or some workaround I can use that can accomplish what I'm looking to do.

Thanks for any help!

Hi all,

Could anybody please explain what does the manager field in the user form behave this way ?

The field is read only and cannot be enable using field properties form ! Also in order to update it we must use the change manager button in the ribbon, it cannot be auto populated using javascript based on other form values.

What can I do in order to populate the manager of a user based on another field value in the form, I mean the field is populated successfully but after saving the form the value disappears, I tried to set the submit mode to always with no luck.

Please advise..

I am going back to fix a broken picklist filter from pre-Polaris and wanted to make sure it would be less likely to break in the future.  To do that, I utilized the SDK sampleprovided here.  I imported the sample solution, then customized the XML to fit my picklists (xml code posted below) and added the Form properties as necessary as well as the Field Properties but it's not working and i've been messing with it all day trying to get it up and running.  My eyes are now crossed and I can't find what i'm missing...I have gone back to the link above and confirmed that it does say I shouldn't need to manipulate the jscript.

"The filtering of dependent options is set in an XML web resource. This allows for changing the option mappings without changing the code."

Here are two screenshots of my Form & Field properties which should help anyone to see where I am missing.

Previously, I used the code from the above link to obtain the full name of the current user.  I tried to modify it to obtain the order number which is in the Name field of the SalesOrder view.  We use the Microsoft Dynamics Adapter to import GP data into CRM and order number is mapped to the name field. 
I pasted the above code into the OnLoad event of the case form which I am in the process of modifying.  Right now I am just trying to display a message box to confirm this is working and then I will modify it to retrieve the data I really want so I can auto populate some fields.The above code does not produce a message box, nothing happens.  I knoe that ORD0011390 is a valid order and should return one result.  Can anyone tell me what is wrong with my code?

Hi every one,

Is there any changes in custom workflow debugging process in dynamic crm 2011 roll up 12.

Because by custom workflow debugging is not working .

Hi All,

I am working on Appointment entity.

My requirement is, as soon as user Save the Appointment record in CRM, one OOB workflow will run and it will call custom workfloe internally.

In Custom workflow, I am using the below code:

// Sets up and creates an outlook calender entry
Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Outlook.Application(); // creates new outlook app
Outlook.AppointmentItem oAppointment = (Outlook.AppointmentItem)outlookApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olAppointmentItem);// creates a new appointment

First off, I'm not a JavaScript expert and am trying to patch this code written by a former dev, so please forgive me if this is an "obvious" fix. I've spent the last 2 hours searching the web for a solution. We're using CRM Online and this error popped up about 2 weeks ago, so we're assuming it is UR12 related.

The following code is in the OnSave event of a CRM custom entity we created. It has worked for the past 6 months (we moved to CRM Online back in August). All it does is calls a web service we have in-house and gets a single XML doc back containing a new ID value which we then insert into the CRM record during the save process. The code below now throws an "Access is Denied" error on the xmlHTTP.open line (inbold). However, if I access the same web service via IE, not from within CRM, the web service returns the requested XML (the exact output is "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <string xmlns="http://tempuri.org">1141</string>") 

I've put the server hosting the web service into IE's "Local Intranet" security group and set "Allow data sources across domains" to enabled. Dynamics CRM's url is also in our Trusted Sites with the allow data sources across domains" enabled.

   // Call audit web service to create an audit id
    var  xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();

    xmlHttp.open("GET", "http://XXXXX:8080/YYYY/AuditWS.asmx/CreateAudit?name=" + Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_auditname").getValue()+ "&start_date=1%2F1%2F1900&end_date=1%2F1%2F1900&description=" + Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_auditname").getValue() + "&ins_user=" + Xrm.Page.getAttribute("ownerid").getValue(), false);

    xmlHttp.send();

Hi

I have seen this done but I can't remember how to do it?

In JavaScript I need to display the text of the selected value while hiding it in the dropdown list so that it can't be re-selected.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

I have a plugin that used to work on CRM 4.0 (personal default view manager: http://a33ik.blogspot.ca/2009/06/personal-default-views-manager-for.html). I managed to register the plugin in CRM2011 with no errors, but it does not execute. Any idea why? 

Thank you,

Hey guys, we are suing CRM 2011 SDK for creating organisation and lot of other stuff. Everything is working fine from last 4 months. Now currentlywe have 2 CRM on premise servers.  Strangely on one CRM Server we keep on getting the below error when we are using the deployment service.

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {080D0D78-F421-11D0-A36E-00C04FB950DC} failed due to the following error: 800703fa Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800703FA).

our deployment service is running under the domain account (not network service), and whenever this error occurs, simple iisreset  is actually resolving it. But i dont know why do even need to do it?? the other CRM server is not at all causing this trouble. And while this error occurs, when i check the CRM Deployment manager it looks fine and even im able to create and delete organisations manually using deployment manager.

Does anyone know what it is?? and how to resolve it??

Hi,

I have a situation where we have different entities that we want to record a fee against. The structure of the fee entity is the same across all other entities. Initially I thought this could be achieved through creating a single lookup field on the fee entity and select from multiple entities instead of having multiple lookups for each type of entity I want to lookup to.

Multiple lookups didn't seem like a very neat solution but from the research I have done so far the only way to achieve a single lookup that can select from a range of entities was using JavaScript. After having a lot of issues with JavaScript and having had legacy code break after going to Rollup 12 I am very reluctant to implement a JavaScript based solution.

Does anyone have any recommendations or advice on how to handle a situation such as this?

Thanks,

Daniel
