Error while installing the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Report Authoring Extension set up

HI Experts,
I am trying to install Report Authoring extension tool to work with MS CRM 2015 online reports but unable to install, getting below error even though I am having VS 2013, SQL Server 2014 and Data tools for VS 2013 installed on my machine.
Please help me to fix this issue.
When I double click the error getting below error.
Error : Business Intelligence Development Studio is not installed for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services.
When I click the details , getting below error.
Thanks
Baji Rahaman

The Report Authoring Extensions (any version) don't support VS 2013. Currently the Crm 2015 Report Authoring Extensions support VS 2012 and VS 2010, and the Crm 2013 Report Authoring Extensions supports only VS 2010.
By the way, the error you posted suggests you're trying to install the Crm 2011 Report Authoring Extensions

Hi!
This issue occurs if the machine has approx. or more than 65.000 Software Updates polices assigned to the machine. The "Prepare Configuration Manager Client" step in the TS will then fail.
To work around this issue, simply use below example "PowerShell script" and run it as a step before "Prepare ConfigMgr Client" in the Build Capture TS. The script will clean-up WMI correctly and the "Prepare ConfigMgr Client" will
run.
This is how the script works!
1. First the script Counts the number of "Software Updates Polices" assigned to the machine and logs this to the log file in CCM Logs Directory.
2. The script then tries to remove the "Software Updates Polices". It will fail to delete all polices.
3. By re-runing these steps, we will sucessfully be able to remove all Software Updates polices.
$Policy = @(Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'"))
$policy.Count | Out-File $Env:WinDir\CCM\Logs\OSD_PrePareConfigMgrClient.log -Append
Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'") | Remove-WmiObject
$RemainingPolicy = @(Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'"))
$RemainingPolicy.Count | Out-File $Env:WinDir\CCM\Logs\OSD_PrePareConfigMgrClient.log –Append
Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'") | Remove-WmiObject
$RemainingPolicy = @(Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'"))
$RemainingPolicy.Count | Out-File $Env:WinDir\CCM\Logs\OSD_PrePareConfigMgrClient.log –Append
Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'") | Remove-WmiObject
$RemainingPolicy = @(Get-WMIObject -Namespace root\ccm\policy\DefaultMachine\RequestedConfig -query("Select * from ccm_policy where PolicySource='ccmtasksequence'"))
$RemainingPolicy.Count | Out-File $Env:WinDir\CCM\Logs\OSD_PrePareConfigMgrClient.log –Append
Use it for what it is worthr, it resolved my issue :)

Patching - How to update the console product version when installing Update Rollup 5

Hi,
I just completed a patch to upgrade Service Manager to Update Rollup 5. I updated the data warehouse servers and management servers.
When looking at installed programs in Windows it shows that Service Manager has the latest version 7.5.3079.315:
However, when I look in the About Service Manager option in the console it shows a product version of 7.5.3079.0:
How do I update the console product version so that it shows the 7.5.3079.315 version?

Hi,
This behaviour is expected. Unfortunately, Microsoft does not update the About Info screen of the SCSM console. Add remove programs shows version .315, which means the console was also updated.
Make sure to also update consoles that your users are running on their computers.

Fetch-Xml based report (to count User Access in the last 6 months ) for Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online

Hi,
I have created a User Access report for CRM on-premise using SQl query in the following format. One row corresponds to one user in organization. Currently, I am using Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online trial version and have two users in my organization.
I want to the same report for CRM Online environment. Only Fetch-Xml based custom reports are supported by CRM online environment hence this SQL query cannot be used.
I have already written fetch-xml query to retrieve user access records ("audit" entity records) in "last-x-months" (where x = 1,2,3,4,5,6) as below.
I am able to retrieve the records with "last-x-months" condition at a time, for example, the last-2-months in my fetch-xml query only.
For, example, when I retrieve the records in the last-2-months, it also includes the records in the last month. I want to count the records in the 2nd month only that is the difference between these two. The difference will be my 2nd column.
Similarly, I want the other columns.
For the case in the above example, I have created the two separate datasets to get the record-count for the last month and last-2-months. But, I am not able to use the two datasets in the same table in my report and hence not able to calculate the difference.
Is there any way to solve this problem?

Hi,
I have modified my Fetch-XML query to retrieve all the required User Access records and removed aggregation and counting and grouping from the query as well. Did grouping and counting in SSRS. Now the report works fine as shown in the above picture.

MS Dynamics CRM 2013 install via GPO

Good Morning,
I need to rollout MS Dynamics CRM 2013 to all 180 of my users. I would like to do this via GPO but I only have the .exe install files and no .msi files. I have adhered to the following -
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh699775.aspx
I have followed the steps under the section Create the CRMCLient_bitversion.msi file
but I am not achieving any administrative installation files. For example I have a network share setup as follows -
\\server\crm_files\test
I have mapped a network folder via command prompt using the net use command to map the Z: drive to
\\server\crm_files. As per the instructions I have run the following command -
CRM2013-Client-ENU-i386.exe /a /q /targetdir \\server\crm_files\test
When I run this command I am prompted to click Run or Cancel so I click Run. After 2-3 seconds I then get a dialog box showing the different switches that I can run with the only other option being to close the box. After closing the box I look in my
test folder and it is empty.
Should there be something in the test folder? Have I run the wrong command string?
EDIT: Please note that I only have the installation/.exe file for CRM 2013. The article on the link I posted earlier mentions an XML file that is included with the installation files. I do not have this XML file.

Hi,
Have you checked this article?
Install Microsoft Dynamics CRM for Outlook using a command prompt
==============
CRM2013-Client-ENU-i386.exe /a /q /targetdir \\server\crm_files\test
The command here is not in the right way, we need first to extract files from the
CRM2013-Client-ENU-i386.exe, under the folder we will find the
SetupClient.exe and the mentioned XML files.
Run this command to extract the file:
CRM2013-Client-ENU-i386.exe /extract
Then use the command below to create an MSI file:
Setupclient /Q /A /targetdir "\\share\mscrm_client_admin"
Besides, for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 deployment, we'd better ask in the forum below:

HT4839 PLEASE HELP!!! I am simply trying to update the APN settings on my Iphone3 AT&T carried Straight Talk SIM phone. For some reason, when I enter the Straight Talk APN info in the Config Utility and click "Install", NOTHING HAPPENS. WHY?

PLEASE HELP!!! I am simply trying to update the APN settings on my Iphone3 AT&T carried Straight Talk SIM phone. For some reason, when I enter the Straight Talk APN info in the Config Utility and click "Install", NOTHING HAPPENS. WHY? I have spent almost 2 full days simply trying to get the cellular data network settings to appear and I am now at the point of pulling hair and/or smashing things. Why is it so difficult to simply update the cellular data network APN settings on a standard Iphone 3 ATT with a unlimited Straight Talk plan? Everyone knows that Straight Talk's $45 a month unlimited data/calling plan is supposed to be 100% compatible with AT&T carried Iphones. Will someone please tell me HOW TO UPDATE THE APN SETTINGS ON THIS IPHONE 3. Thanks and God bless
<Personal Information Edited by Host>

StraightTalk is not a supported carrier.
Contact them for support.
FYI, unless the device is officially unlocked from AT&T, you will not be able to use it on another carrier.

Hi, I have the iPhone 4, 32GB, version 4.3.5 (8L1) and for some reason when I connect it to the laptop, it starts synchronising but never goes beyond step 1. I have tried evrything, but it does not work and now I cannot update the iPhone s/w. any clue?

Hi, I have the iPhone 4, 32GB, version 4.3.5 (8L1) and for some reason when I connect it to the laptop, it starts synchronising but never goes beyond step 1. It goes on syncing forever, without actually doing anything. I have tried everything, wiped the phone numerous times, deleted all files from the laptop but still no resolution. As a result, the phone does not really synchronise.
This started somewhere in May 2011 when I upgraded what proved to be a problematic s/w version and the phone has not recovered since.
Now I cannot update the iPhone s/w any longer.
Any clue?

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

In AppStore.app for some reason when I try to update my apps, it asks for the wrong user account than the one that I am logged in with. This makes me unable to update my apps

You would have downloaded those apps with the wrong Apple ID then created a new Apple ID which is the on you are on now. This is acting as normal because all content downloaded from the iTunes and App Store is attached to the Apple ID it was downloaded with. To stop this you would delete the apps and redownload them with your current Apple ID you are signed in with.

I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it. For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in. I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps.

I want to open a folder in a separate window by clicking on it. For some reason when I click on a folder it just replaces the one I was just in. I want them both to be open at the same time without having to go through several steps. Old apple operating systems made it easy to have several folders open at one time.

Eric, thanks that works but seems like an extra added step also to do it that way. I've got to move and organize a ton of files and I'm looking for a easy way to get this done. I could also open the folder into a separate tab and then drag the tab out so it becomes an open window but thats a lot of fussing around also with extra steps. Not sure why these newer operating system seems more confusing and less user friendly than what they used to. In the past I could just click on any folder and it would open in a separate window making it really easy to copy or move files from one place to the other just by simply dragging them from one window to the other. Seems like I'm going through several extra steps now to do a simple task.
