How to use Form Component Control to Edit Related Entity Information in Dynamics 365 CRM

In the recent release of the Dynamics 365 CRM, new features have been added. One of the most important and useful features among these is the feature to see and edit data of the related entity on the main form using the “Form Component Control”. A feature like this is useful in many ways, for example, if a salesperson is working on the Opportunity record and they want to change some related information of a customer then they can do it on the same form itself. Previously, if the same salesperson wanted to edit the information of the customer, they needed to open records of the customer and then change the information. This was not efficient, previously with the help of Quick View Form we could see the data of related records but now using Form Component Control they can edit information of related entity records. We can edit the related record information within the same form, by following the below steps: Go to Customizations  -> Customize the System -> go to Opportunity ent...

What is Secure Vs Unsecure configuration of plugin in Dynamics 365 CRM

  While developing plugin for Microsoft Dynamics CRM, there are some scenarios where you required an input parameters or a configuration for the plugin execution which can be easily updated without having to re-compile or re-registering the plugin. When you register a plugin step, there are fields where you can specify configuration parameters for the plugin execution. In Microsoft Dynamics CRM there are two types of different configurations fields are available for plugin-         1.         Unsecure configuration.         2.         Secure configuration. The main difference between these two settings is that, secure configuration is only viewable by CRM Administrators while the unsecure configuration is viewable by any CRM user.  Another major difference is- the unsecure configuration will automatically move between environments with your CRM solutions.

How to prevent record from saving in Dynamics CRM using Javascript

  From time to time you might need to add some validation to the save event of an entity, this actually used to be an approach I would use on a regular basis but since the introduction of business rules have found myself doing this less and less. But still, knowing the ability is available is handy. When you define the onsave event function, you must tick the “Pass execution contact as first parameter” option. (See below) Having done that you can create an onSave function with code similar to the example I have shown below. Note forgetting the “(context)”, which will take the context parameter allowing you to prevent the save when needed. function onSave(context) { var saveEvent = context.getEventArgs(); if (Xrm.Page.getAttribute("telephone1").getValue() == null) { // *** Note: I am using an alert for testing a notification maybe better! alert("Put in a phone number!"); saveEvent.preventDefault(); } } Note: This simple example might be better achi...
