XrmToolBox: AutoNumberUpdater - new StateCode filter

Turn off CRM Outlook Syncronization

The Outlook CRM add-in includes the diagnostics tool. This allows various configuration options.
For some cases it might be useful to deactivate the Outlook Synchronization.

Usually, this tool is installed in this path:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics CRM\Client\res\web\bin

you can open the tool from command line if you want:

Microsoft.Crm.Outlook.Diagnostics.exe

diagnostics

If you want to configure multiple machines or use policies to deactivate synchronziation you can also
use a registry key for that:

outlook sync

The key you want to look for is “RunOutlookScheduledSync” or “RunOfflineScheduledSync” if you use offline functionality.

Setting to 0 (zero) disables it. Setting to 1 enables this feature.

Remark:
Replace ORG_ID with your actual organization id.

Create Windows Registry deactivate.reg file for deactivation of sync:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRMClient\{ORG_ID}]
"RunOutlookScheduledSync"=dword:00000000
"RunOfflineScheduledSync"=dword:00000000

 

Create Windows Registry activate.reg file for activation of sync:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSCRMClient\{ORG_ID}]
"RunOutlookScheduledSync"=dword:00000001
"RunOfflineScheduledSync"=dword:00000001

Yet Another Address Autocomplete PCF Control–powered by Bing

In this blog post I will not go into detail in how to install all the pre-requisites that are required to build and run PCF controls. My goal was to build a new PCF control and get into coding of PCF controls as fast as possible. Here are a few links to articles that will help you installing the pre-requisites (Microsoft PowerApps CLI)  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/get-powerapps-cli Other good references to get into this topic: https://toddbaginski.com/blog/how-to-create-a-powerapps-pcf-control/ https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/component-framework/create-custom-controls-using-pcf I looked through the Guido Preite’s https://pcf.gallery/ which will help you find appropriate use cases / examples for your own needs. It did not take very long to find a simple example to start with: Andrew Butenko's https://pcf.gallery/address-autocomplete/ A few moments later I had the idea to create yet another address autocomplete

Regarding SPFieldMultiLineText (Add HTML/URL content to a field) programmatically

I recently tried so set some HTML content in a SharePoint list column of type SPFieldMultiLineText. My first approach was this piece of code: SPFieldMultiLineText field = item.Fields.GetFieldByInternalName( "Associated Documents" ) as SPFieldMultiLineText; StringBuilder docList = new StringBuilder(); docList.Append( " " ); foreach (DataRow docRow in addDocs) { DataRow[] parent = dr.Table.DataSet.Tables[0].Select( "DOK_ID=" + docRow[ "DOK_MGD_ID" ].ToString()); if (parent != null && parent.Length > 0) { docList.AppendFormat( " {1} " , parent[0][ "FilePath" ].ToString(), parent[0][ "Title" ].ToString()); } } if (docList.Length > 0) { // remove trailing tag docList.Remove(docList.Length-5, 5); } docList.Append( " " ); string newValue = docList.ToString(); item[field.Title] = newValue; What this code does is to get all associated documents to the main document and to add these docu

CRM 2016 SP1: Solution import failed with Solution With Id = 12ac16ec-41d5-1685-a230-0b1c31499250 Does Not Exist

Importing Solutions with the upgrade solution (holding solution) option is still not stable with CRM 2016 SP1 On-Premise. Ronald Lemmon already posted the same issue on his blog: http://ronaldlemmen.blogspot.de/2015/11/solution-with-id-86ac16ec-41d7-4685.html I expected it to be fixed with SP1 but it is still happening every now and then. With this query and the solution id (guid) of the error message you are able to find records in the ProcessTriggerBase table that reference the guid of a failed import from a holding solution that is not existing in the system anymore. select * from ProcessTriggerBase where solutionid = 'YOUR_SOLUTION_GUID' Due to this reference to a solution id not existing in the system you will not be able to import a new version of the target solution to be updated. What I did and this is probably not a supported solution is to update the guid to the actual target solution that is currently deployed in the system. To find out the id of
