Getting started with a new Integration project

Good day all!
I am just in the beginnings stage of a development project for an enhancement to the CRM OD system. This project is related to the Opportunity and Product Revenue (PR) objects.
In a nutshell, here is what I need to do. We have a custom object called 'Competitor Pricing' (called CP from here on) which is a listing of all our primary competitors and associated pricing for related items. Due to the nature of our business, this CP is region specific, so indexing is on: competitor, product type and region.
Our sales people will quote multiple items to a customer, some of which they will win, some they may not. I cannot just call an opportunity a Win or Loose because, for example, if there are 5 items on an opportunity and we win 3 of the 5, then the opportunity is a partial win.
For the 2 that we did not win, if the customer purchased them from a competitor, we need to annotate that at the PR object level. This is the crux of my problem.
From what I have read, there is no way to associate a custom object to a child object PR is a child object). If I can get this association to work, I can get the rest of my requirements completed. I just cannot determine how to get the CP associated to the PR. Can anyone help or give guidance?

For most people, this would not be possible. But with integration, I think you might be able to get there. You can definitely store the associations in custom fields using integration. What you would not be able to do is use an OOTB link to navigate from the child object to the custom object. But, you should be able to create a weblink field that would link the user to the CP record, and either popup the information in a new window, or navigate the user to the CP object.
The link would need need to be based on the row ID of the CP record, and you would have to use integration to populate the values, but since you are already talking about integration, this isn't significantly more complicated to complete.
Good Luck and let me know how it goes for you. My email is in my profile.

  • Having trouble getting started with my new shuffle

    I am having trouble getting started with my new shuffle. any help?

    Hey there Feisty59,
    It sounds like you have a new iPod Shuffle, and want to know how to start using it. Here is a great resource for understanding how to use your iPod, and how to set it up and get music synced to it from iTunes:
    iPod shuffle User Guide
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1550/en_US/iPod_shuffle_4thgen_User _Guide.pdf
    If you have a different model of iPod Shuffle, choose yours from the following page and use that guide instead:

  • Please help me get started with my new ipad

    Hi all--merry Christmas!
    So, I'm away from home and just got my new ipad! Of course I want to play with it, but am not sure how to start. My full itunes library is on my iMac at home (and this is what I use when I sync my iphone). I do have my MacBookPro with me, but I don't use the itunes program on it very much. It looks like I need to connect my new ipad to my itunes in order to start using it....what will happen if I connect it to my laptop here, just to get going, and then later when I home I connect it to my iMac where my "real" itunes and all my apps are?
    Thanks for any info...I'm salivating to use it!!!

    Congrats you will love it!
    I don't see a problem with activating your iPad on your MBP. When you get home sync with iMac and set your iPad up as you like.
    Have fun!

  • How do I get started with my new Mac and and Iphone?

    I had my Iphone synced with a PC that literally burned up unexpectedly. I replaced it with a Mac and want to sync my phone, however, when I click to manage content manually, a message pops up telling me that my phone will be erased (!!). Because I have lots of music and apps on the phone, I don't want to go back to square one. What do I need to do to make the new computer work with my phone?

    "The help file seems to say that all the music I have ripped from CDs when my old PC was authorized can't be copied into Itunes."
    That is correct. the music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone will sync/manually manage with one and only one computer at a time. When you sync/manually mange with another, it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
    "Another responder cited a help page which suggested that I should back up the phone to writable CDs (why the heck would I want to do that?)."
    I think you misunderstand. You backup your itunes library from your computer, not from the iphone.
    You simply move everything from the old computer, or the backup copy of the old computer, to the new one.

  • Wish I could get started with my new iPad

    Ordered it on December 15th and am hearing it is still sitting in China! Nice 2 day shipping! My confidence is shot when it comes to Apple!

    Did the Holiday 2 day shipping. Talked to 4 customer service reps and all fed me crap about it being there in time for Christmas and still nothing. I was told look for it Friday, Monday, then Tuesday and then that it would be delievered today. The new shipping number is invalid, now there are 2 ipads on my receipt because they did a reorder on the first one.
    I am not a Mac person when it comes to laptops or desktops. I do however love my iphone, ipods (Classic, touch and Shuffle) and thought the iPad would be an awesome addition....guess not. Seriously? If they canot do two day shipping then they should take it off their website and stop telling people on the phone that they CAN make it happen. I know it is coming, but it is the priniple of the matter. Dont promise the customer something and then say oops...check tomorrow.

    You must be using an update CD.  You need the software that has the full version first - install that, then you can use the update one if needed. I know, cuz I made the same mistake - lol

  • Shortest path to get started with JSF project

    Hello,
    I am looking for a path of least resistance (or effort) to get started with JSF. This is really an add to the "JSP due diligence" thread that I started but with a specific question. At this time, I am primarily interested in implementing an MVC framework. The components of JSF seem interesting and I think will be valuable to us, but it would be too much to bite off at this time. So, could I implement JSF with my JSP pages (with code to use the backing beans but my own html components) and then later add JSF components as the next step? Perhaps this is non sensical but appreciate you saying that so I know how much effort is involved.
    Thanks!
    Priya

    Trying to use JSF without the JSF components sounds like it would be harder. Much of the benefit of JSF is the binding of bean properties to component values.

  • Getting Started with FCE - Problems with my imported files

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get started with Final Cut Express, but I'm experiencing lots of problems when I import my project from iMovie.
    My project contains video, which I imported into iMovie at 960 x 540. It also contains some keynote animations, which I exported from Keynote as quicktime files.
    When I export my files to FCE, I instantly get problems.
    1) When I add the imported file to the sequence, I get an "Attention the clip does not match the sequence's setting or any of your sequence settings" error.
    2) Whether I choose to translate my settings or not, I try to play the video in the timeline, but there is a continuous beeping sound, no audio from my video and when it hits the keynote animations, it just says "unrendered" or "media offline".
    Please can you offer any advice on how I can get started with FCE more successfully.
    Thanks!

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    (please specify iMovie and FCE version)
    Well, your sequence settings in FCE should be DV-PAL 48 Khz.
    Create a new sequence.
    From iMovie and Keynote, export your movie with quicktime conversion andd select DV-PAL 48 kHz (*And Not* DV Stream...). This material should play without rendering because his format and codec match the sequence's codec.
    Import your files and everything should be OK.
    Michel Boissonneault
    The audio should be AIFF 48 kHz 16 bit linear PCM

  • Help Needed with getting Started With Office 365 Development C# Rest API

    We have a O365 Tenant Setup with a Federated Active Directory Setip we want to be able to right code that will connect to our tenant and perform basic CRUD operations against it (ex. Creating mail boxes)
    The problem is we want this to be contained in a CLR trigger In SQL so say if a new user is added to our user table then we would create a new AD account for that user and also create a mailbox.
    But I cannot find and example on how to connect to Office 365 using the REST API (Not the SDK because you can not add the connected service to a class library) and before the required actions that we need to do. All the example I have found are with the
    SDK API and/or require window 8 and that is also not an option.
    Please help I do not know where to start, and I would love to see some examples done in c# and not using the SDK.
    Thanks,
    Andrew Day

    Hi,
    >> Instead of SharePoint URLs I would use the O365 API URL?
    Yes, in my sample code, I was accessing the File resource by using the O365 File API. In your case, you need to acquire the token to access the Mail resource and use O365 Mail API.
    By the way, I think the article
    Understand Office 365 app authentication concepts will help you to understand the authentication process in Office 365 Development.
    >> Why can I not use the SDK API with a class Library?
    Actually, you are able to reference the Office 365 .NET SDK in the class Library. But the class library project type was not supported by Visual Studio Office 365 Development Tool. As a workaround,
    you can reference the SDK manually in your project.
    Since your original question is about “getting started with Office 365 Development C# Rest API”, if you have more questions about the Office 365 SDK, I will suggest you posting a new thread
    to discuss the Office 365 SDK. It will involve more other community members to share their ideas and experience on a specific a question and for others who had a similar question could also find the valuable information quickly.

  • Getting started with SAP Netweaver

    Hi there,
    I am an IT professional with 7 years of development/project management experience in MS technologies.
    I want to learn SAP Netweaver, but very new to SAP!
    What is the Pre-requisite to learn Netweaver? Should I know ABAP to get into the Netweaver platform?
    Please advice me and provide some useful materials to getting started with Netweaver.
    Thanx.
    Aslu

    Hi Aslam,
    there was a recent thread about a similar question of yours, please check out First time in  SAP  Netweaver
    There are so many NetWeaver components so your question is a bit hard to answer.. But if you want to keep on programming, you really don't need ABAP much. NetWeaver is mostly about Java (Web App Server & Enterprise Portal programming), but you have touching points to both .NET and ABAP.
    Hope this helps,

  • Can not get example to work after following instructions given in "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" guide

    We explored using sbRIO for our project, for different reasons we ended up going with a different embedded solution . We are currently evaluating the LabVIEW C Generator to convert some of the core analysis routines from LabVIEW to C so the team that will be creating the embedded solution don't have to re-implement them from scratch. 
    Before converting our code, I followed the instructions given in the "Getting Started with the NI LabVIEW C Generator" manual to create a static library created inCygwin using GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). 
    I managed to compile the code, but when I type "run GCD.exe" in the Cygwin console, I just see the window flash with no time to see if the result is correct or not. I modified the main.c cde to add a getchar(), but the window still just flashes and now I am left with the GCD process still running and have to kill it using Windows Task Manager.
    Has anyone else got this example to run? I am sure I am missing an obvious setting or step, please help me.
    More details below.

    Hi Kevin,
    I hope you had a good Thanksgiving. I am attaching a zip file with the LabVIEW project, my build specification and my version of "Greatest Common Divisor.vi", which should be the same as the one that you have that ships with the LabVIEW C Generator, but just in case. I am also attaching a zip file with the C files generated by the LabVIEW C Generator.
    You can also see the video I posted earlier with the steps I followed. I hope you are able to point out where I went wrong.
