Unable to register custom workflow activity on MS CRM 2015 Online

Hi All,
I am trying to register custom workflow activity using plugin registration tool on MS CRM 2015 Online.
Error says that 'No Plugin have been selected from list. Please select atleast one and try again'
In short my assembly is not considered as custom workflow activity.
I am giving my code let me know, If any thing is wrong.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Activities;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk;
using Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.Workflow;
namespace Training.SamplePlugin
public class SampleCustomworkflow : CodeActivity
[Input("Birthday")]
public InArgument<DateTime> BirthDate { get; set; }
[Output("NextBirthday")]
public OutArgument<DateTime> NextBirthDay { get; set; }
protected override void Execute(CodeActivityContext executionContext)
//Create the tracing service
ITracingService tracingService = executionContext.GetExtension<ITracingService>();
//Create the context
IWorkflowContext context = executionContext.GetExtension<IWorkflowContext>();
IOrganizationServiceFactory serviceFactory = executionContext.GetExtension<IOrganizationServiceFactory>();
IOrganizationService service = serviceFactory.CreateOrganizationService(context.UserId);
if (context.PrimaryEntityName.ToLowerInvariant() == "contact")
DateTime birthDate = BirthDate.Get<DateTime>(executionContext);
DateTime nextBirthDate = new DateTime(DateTime.Now.AddYears(1).Year, birthDate.Month, birthDate.Day);
//NextBirthDay.Set(executionContext, nextBirthDate);
Entity newContact = new Entity();
newContact.LogicalName = "contact";
newContact.Id = context.PrimaryEntityId;
newContact["new_nextbirthday"] = nextBirthDate;
service.Update(newContact);
If code is correct then has somebody faced this kind of issue earlier, what is resolution.
Thanks

CRM 2015 outlook client does not connect to CRM

Hi,
I am trying to run the configuration wizard to connect the office 2010 outlook to Dynamics CRM 2015 server and get the error below (outlook client 2015 is successfully installed). All the required components
are installed on both server and client side.
Any idea?
captainsina

Hi Nico,
How is it going? :)
I am going against on-prem. Not being prompted for credentials. I can go to the services using the browser, but the outlook client fails.
I am using the same credentials on the local machine as the CRM user credentials.
Cheers.

SharePoint Operations on a CRM 2015 Custom Form

Platform: CRM 2015 Online + O365 + SharePoint Online
I have a custom form on an object related to Account that I would like to present to the users with functionality allowing them to upload a (single) document and have it associated with the Account record. Then, I want to stuff a link to
the document on the custom form so that other users consuming the custom object could click directly to the document (instead of having to click over to the "Documents" tile and dig up the document).
Is this something I can do from JavaScript or am I looking at a .NET plugin?
Any help much appreciated!
Thanks!
James Prevallet

Hi joshalcorn22,
I see that you have used the following:
<endpointBehaviors>
<behavior name="webHttpBehavior">
<webHttp helpEnabled="true" />
</behavior>
<behavior name="PasswordResetter.Service1AspNetAjaxBehavior">
<enableWebScript />
</behavior>
</endpointBehaviors>
But it seems that you do not apply these endpoint behaviors to the endpoint, please try to apply it. After that if it still can not work, please try to change the POST method to the GET method to see if you can get the right result in the browser. If you
can get the result with the GET method, then it may have something wrong with your javascript code. If you can not get the result with the GET method, then please try to enable the WCF trace to help you find the root cause.

CRM 2015 Customer Main Grid Fancy

0
In CRM 4.0, At Customer Main Grid has option to popup some address details like below.
Does any one know In CRM 2015, How to enable this option or is there any Add-On/Plugin/Solution out there to enable this sort of pop up windows with few column details at Customer grid?? Technically we can inject JavaScript function to pop up tooltip
with nice windows on Mouse hover event on Customer Grid, but curious, if any one have done that or any article/link for this??
Thanks,
Nick

CRM 2015 Outlook Plugin and SCCM 2012

Good Morning!
In need of some assistance from you more experienced SCCM admins. Let me quickly run down the steps of what I've done:
1) Created a network share for CRM 2015 that everyone can see
2) Ran the EXE from Microsoft and followed the instructions from them to create the CrmClient_32.msi
3) In SCCM, created a new application, and linked the shared folder. SCCM auto-populated the install command, publisher data, etc. The only thing I added was "/s" for the MSI package to install
4) Created a Device Collection with one test PC that already has CRM 2013 installed
5) Deployed the application to the device collection with the following options:
Under Content Tab:
Content Location: \\networkshare\Installs\CRM2015
Persist content in the client cache is NOT checked
Allow clients to share content with other clients on the same subnet IS checked
Deployment options: Do not download content
Under the Programs Tab:
Installation program: msiexec /i /s "CrmClient_32.msi"
Installation start in: blank
Uninstall program: msiexec /x
Run installation and uninstall program as 32-bit process on 64-bit clients IS checked
Under User Experience Tab:
Installation Behavior: Install for system
Logon requirement: Whether or not a user is logged on
Installation program "margin-bottom:9px;padding-right:0px;padding-font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:21px;word-wrap:break-word;color:#333333;">Maximum allowed run time ( 120 minutes)
Estimated installation time (0 minutes)
6) I schedule the install (for most applications I've seen this works best)
Now when I go to Monitoring, all I see is the deployment is "In Progress" and the category is "Waiting for content"
I'm frustrated because I don't understand why this won't work. It seems so painless and the method I've described above works for almost any other application I've pushed out.
I'm all ears - is there anything you see that isn't correct? Any ideas or suggestions? If you've successfully pushed out CRM 2015 some how (even if it's not through SCCM), could you please share your solution?
Thank you so much! -Nick

Outlook Sync Error SOLVED - Multi-day repeating appointment cannot be converted for use on the Handheld...

*UPDATE 1/23/2009 07:08 AM* This is a partial fix. I no longer think the Recurrence Range is the culprit. It seems the Time Zones features between Outlook & Palm are not cooperating. This explains why my 12 am events are syncing as 6 pm the day before; I live in GMT-6:00 so it's moving my events ahead by 6 hours. Another event I set for 1 pm in Outlook was changed to 7 am on my Treo. I am going to start over and recreate each event, this time setting the Time Zones, which I hadn't done before. I tested it out and it worked with a single event... let's see how long it lasts. I've also found that using 'No Time' on my Treo is not compatible with Outlook. It's better to set a time with 0 minutes duration.
*UPDATE 1/23/2009 04:11 AM* This is a partial fix. My monthly and yearly problematic recurring events are now showing up at 6 pm the day before on my Treo, though my Outlook calendar is fine. I think this has to do with the Recurrence Range Start/End in Outlook, which is set automatically. If only there were a way to change this...
After a WHOLE LOTTA trial-and-error (like 3 days worth), I think I finally solved my OLERR:14-001 issue!
Problem: Syncing Palm Treo 755p calendar with Outlook 2007
Error Message (simplified):
HotSync session completed with messages on [date] [time]
HotSync session started on [date] [time], and completed in [0] seconds
Outlook Calendar synchronization completed with messages
Duration: [0] seconds
Outlook Calendar
The multi-day repeating appointment titled [event] beginning [date] [time] cannot be converted for use on the Handheld. Please divide the appointment up into single-days and re-synchronize.
OLERR:14-0001
- Desktop overwrite HH Sync
Note: You will likely have several of these ‘Multi-day’ instances in your hotsync log (I had 58). You may want to change Calendar in hotsync to "Desktop overwrites Handheld" after you get this error, to avoid erasing events while you are fixing this issue. Otherwise, you may have to restore them from a backup copy (if you have one) and start over. You can switch back once you’re through.
Solution: First, I tried this Palm KB Article: http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/NUA/launchKB.asp?c=31167. After this didn’t work for me… I did trial-and-error. I believe the problem is that each recurring event, which you set up as ‘All-day’, must be changed to have a duration of 0 minutes from within Outlook. I was able to change some events directly, but I found that some of the records had corrupted, and would just revert. My fool-proof solution was to recreate EVERY problematic event (yes, one-by-one) using the following steps:
Open Outlook
Go to your default calendar, where your events are synced
In the top menu choose ‘View’ > ‘Current View’ > ‘Recurring Appointments’
Open a ‘New Appointment’
Enter subject and other options, such as Categorize, Importance, Time Zones, or Reminder
Make sure starting and ending date & time are the EXACT same
Select ‘Recurrence’ & choose your pattern
I did not choose ‘No end date’ (hence the Palm article), but rather ‘End by:’ and typed in 2031, then pressed tab to auto-generate a suitable end date. I chose 2031 because that is last year my Treo’s calendar goes to. Click OK
Repeat for every event in your error log, until you get a clean "Desktop overwrites Handheld" hotsync (Outlook should be closed when you sync)
Switch Calendar in hotsync back to "Synchronize"
Even though I still get the message OLERR14:001, my syncs are successful. Now I will give my Treo time to see if the issue returns later. Until then, happy Outlook syncing and good luck!

Flitered Sub-grid in Online CRM 2015

Hi all ,
   I have the following requirement. In Case form we included multiple sub-grids (Opportunity,Lead, etc..). On selecting the value in customer field, only the related records of that particular Customer should flow in the
respective sub-grids.
The same functionality we worked in CRM 2013 which was working fine. At present in CRM 2015 on loading the form some times it is working & some times it is not working (means some times it shows related record & some times it shows all records).
Unable to identify the issue. We have also tried by refreshing the sub-grid twice in J-script.
Any solution?
Thanks & Regards
Shankar

Hi Polat,
Thanks for your reply. We have done the same work. Please find below Jscript we have used, which is working fine in CRM 2013. In CRM 2015 some times it works & some times it shows all the records with out filter. So any other solution for
this issue.
function BindGridSubscription() {
    // Get Customer
    var lookupfield = new Array;
    lookupfield = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("customerid").getValue();
    if (lookupfield != null) {
        var lookupid = lookupfield[0].id;
    else {
        return;
    var relatedSubscriptions = null;
    relatedSubscriptions = document.getElementById('sgvSubscriptionDetails');
    if (relatedSubscriptions == null || relatedSubscriptions.readyState != "complete") {
        setTimeout('BindGridSubscription()', 2000);
        return;
    var fetchXmlSubs = "<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' distinct='false'>";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<entity name='opportunity'>";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='opportunityid' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_zone' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='totalamount' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_subscriptiontype' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_copystartdate' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_copyenddate' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_subscribedscheme' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_subscribedproduct' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_schemestartdate' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_schemeenddate' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_poimplementationdate' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_bookingformnumber' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<attribute name='tec_bookingdate' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<order attribute='tec_zone' descending='false' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<filter type='and'>";
    fetchXmlSubs += "<condition attribute='customerid' operator='eq' uitype='contact' value='" + lookupid + "' />";
    fetchXmlSubs += "</filter>";
    fetchXmlSubs += "</entity>";
    fetchXmlSubs += "</fetch>";
    relatedSubscriptions.control.SetParameter("fetchXML", fetchXmlSubs);
    relatedSubscriptions.control.Refresh();

CRM 2015 Online, E-mail router performs so slow

Hi,
We are testing staging CRM 2015 Online. Email router for 2015 is installed in an online Windows 2012 server. We set Polling Period(seconds) 60 in Email Router Configuration Manager. However, when I send an e-mail, it takes
more than 20 minutes for the e-mail to arrive in my Gmail Inbox. Checking System Jobs and views regarding sent e-mail, all indicates that the e-mail was sent instantly. What shall I do to improve the Email Router performance? Thanks.

Why are you using the email router if your Exchange Server is also Online? Dynamics CRM Online has Server Sync built in so it will directly communicate to Exchange Online. Much better solution than rolling up an email Router.
Also, if you don't have access to the Exchange server, I' doubt there's much you can do, since you don't have all the tools you need to troubleshoot the issue.

Microsoft Dyamics CRM 2015 : Current Geospatial Capabilities

Greetings,
I have only become familiar with MS Dynamics CRM 2013. We have recently upgraded to 2015. I am seeking some knowledge regarding current geospatial capabilities and/or integration. May somebody please provide a link or start a discussion with
me?
Regards,
Jeff

Hi Chris,
Thank you for your reply. Currently we are tracking data relating to the following that want to integrate high-level geospatial visualizations with CRM 2015:
-level of training material and support
-allowances of products based on demand
-training methods/providers and impact on training performance
-cost analysis of support/training
-forecasting of support needed, products to manufacture, and training
Some example use-cases of high-level geospatial visualizations would be:
- Training: how much?, where?, who?
- support needed at specific locations
- cost of support/training at specific locatations
-etc...
I am aware of the Bing Map feature in 2015. I am sort of the bridge between a geospatial team and upper management; I have done CRM development in 2013 but nothing geospatial.
Is this something that could integrate well with PowerMaps or PowerBi? If so, how efficiently? Can I provide my own data visualization in iframe in 2015 CRM interface? I want to avoid adding any non-value-add activities for users and upper
mgt by keeping the visualizations within CRM.
I'm fresh out of college and new to this organization. Any advice would help.
Thanks

Do you have support to integrate echosign with Dynamics CRM 2015, If Not, When it will be possible.?

Do you have support to integrate echosign with Dynamics CRM 2015, If Not, When it will be possible?

Hey Mantas,
Do not expect that feature any time soon. I do not even see that being a feature this year.
Considering all that is going on and required to be finished and sorted a lot more is/will need to be done.
In terms of what you can do I have done things like used the refer a friend form which you can style and use that to send emails out to the needed people. I have submitted multiple web forms with ajax etc as well.
You have the custom fields for the people and emails (if not you can add them) and you can use those to send emails off to people, you just do not have a workflow so your not pestered with it but the notification message is the one that goes out and can have a template applied.
So there is a number of things you can do to get that going along those lines. I have done a few variations of this on different sites.
Warning note though - Ajax submission for custom web forms has a total character limit (all fields) of 1024 characters, which is not a lot.
