Dynamics CRM 2013 online - clear Asynchronous plugin system job log

Hi all,
I would like to know whether it is possible to disable the 'System Event' log (under System Jobs) which were generated by the Asynchronous Plugins? Or we need to do housekeeping ourselves? Because there were more than 100 thousand of system
jobs created everyday. Please advise. Thanks.
Gary

Do you have all of your workflows set to delete successful jobs automatically? That will help keep the numbers down. What other kinds of jobs are making logs? If you have your own custom plugins, likely you want them to flag as
"delete on success" as well to keep the log down to errored out jobs.

Hi Wayne,
The Delete AsyncOperation if StatusCode = Successful option is not provided in the current version of plugin registration tools. (my version 6.1.0.519)

How to improve performance for bulk data load in Dynamics CRM 2013 Online

Hi all,
We need to bulk update (or create) contacts into Dynamics CRM 2013 online every night due to data updated from another external data source. The data size is around 100,000 and the data loading duration was around 6 hours.
We are already using ExecuteMultiple web services to handle the integration, however, the 6 hours integraton duration is still not acceptable and we are seeking for any advise for further improvement.
Any help is highly appreciated. Many thanks.
Gary

I think Andrii's referring to running multiple threads in parallel (see
http://www.mscrmuk.blogspot.co.uk/2012/02/data-migration-performance-to-crm.html - it's a bit dated, but should still be relevant).
Microsoft do have some throttling limits applied in Crm Online, and it is worth contacting them to see if you can get those raised.
100 000 records per night seems a large number. Are all these records new or updated records, or are there some that are unchanged, in which case you could filter them out before uploading ? Or are there useful ways to summarise the data before loading

Dynamics CRM 2013 : Offline capability with Outlook Plugin

Dear all,
I have a scenario where I have to use the Offline Capability feature of Dynamics CRM 2013 with CRM Client for Outlook plugins.
Can I use the offline capability mode if all my users are using gmail as their email?
If so, can someone guide me please.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks & regards
Vinay

You need to change page size in order to see the on button. try Ctrl+0
Regards Faisal
Thanks Faisal for your reply. I tried Ctrl+0 (zero) but no difference. I think Ctrl+0 is for clearing the zoom in/out effect in web pages. While this tool is a windows (desktop) application.
Please note that I have taken the snap (attached in original post) after maximizing the
Update Assembly dialog (by double clicking the title bar area.
The version of the Plugin Registration Tool is 6.1.1.1143 64bit. If you can check your Plugin Registration Tool version and post the snapshot as well?

CRM 2013 Online - sending email with CRM Online and jQuery

Hi,
I have a html page in webresource in a CRM 2013 Online form. There is a button to send an e-mail from the html page. Because this is an embedded html, I will not be able to create a plug-in to trigger 'send an e-mail'. The best bet
is to send an e-mail via javascript.
I found an article about 'Sending email with SharePoint and jQuery',
http://geekswithblogs.net/ThorvaldBoe/archive/2014/07/03/sending-email-with-sharepoint-and-jquery.aspx
Is there a similar Jquery way we can send e-mail from CRM 2013 Online? Thanks.

Hello,
Actually you can send email through plugin using Actions feature. Recheck my articles about the feature -
http://a33ik.blogspot.com/search/label/Action
In case you anyway want to send your email directly you should recheck following articles:

Dynamic CRM 2013 Online how to execute Report, generate PDF and email

Dear All,
I am using Dynamic CRM 2013 online. For quote, I have workflow and Dialogue processes for review process. On approval, I want the system to generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer.
Better I would like, When approver, clicks on the approve button, the system should auto generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer, without any further input from the user. If its not possible, I may have to put button on
quote form.
I am using the attached code, but facing various issues.
1. Under prepare the SOAP Message coding part, I am not sure what should be the below URL for CRM 2013 Online?
xHReq.Open("POST", "/mscrmservices/2007/CrmService.asmx", false);
2. What should be the emailid here? Is it Recepient Contact id(Guid) ?
var emailid = resultXml.selectSingleNode("//CreateResult").nodeTypedValue;
alert("emailid" + emailid.toString());
3. Using this code, not able to create Entity for "ActivityMimeAttachment", I am getting newEntity as undefined.
Below is the code I am using. Please check and help me out, where I am going wrong. Let me know if any better way to implement it. At present, I have put one button on quote form, on click event, below code will get executed.

Can someone help me on this?
Thanks Chandrabhanu

Hi
DeviceidManager.cs was causing the problem. I used simple codes and it worked.
string CrmConnection crmConnection = CrmConnection.Parse("Url=" + crmserver + "; Username=" + username + "; Password=" + password + ";");
OrganizationService serviceProxy = new OrganizationService(crmConnection);
Thanks Chandrabhanu

Outgoing emails on CRM 2013 Online

I've set up two outgoing server profiles. One for GMAIL and one for Exchange Online. I am currently using trials of both.
I set the mailboxes of queues to use the correct profiles and to use server-side sync or email router for both incoming and outgoing.
For both accounts (one using Exchange profile other using GMAIL), the mailbox tests succeed. The queues also pull in emails. Bot for both, emails I send just sit in Pending Send saying the msg has not yet been submitted for delivery.
Is there a limitation for trial instances with regard to outgoing email?

Windows 10 and Dynamics CRM 2013 Outlook Client - Identity Foundation missing

How can I install/activate the Identity Foundation in Windows 10.
In Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features the feature is missing.
Dynamics CRM 2013 (and 2011) Outlook Client does need the Identity Foundation:
Error is "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Identity.Model, Version=3.5.0.0 ...
icomedias Austria - Germany

I've had the same problem with the CRM 2011 Plug-in.. It is not possible to install the Windows Identity Framework onto Windows 10 since it was not included as an option in the "Features" menu.
Also - I found this forum entry discussing that exact problem (with no answer, so far):
Windows Identity Foundation not working with Technical Preview
EDIT: Fixed link. Inside of the linked discussion thread, I see this:
"From Windows 8.1 Features Screen:
WIF 3.5 has been superseded by WIF classes that are provided as part of .NET 4.5. It is recommended that you use .NET 4.5 for supporting claims-based identity in your applications.
so i guess they removed it completely in Windows TP"

Does JQuery DataTable work for CRM 2013 online?

Hi,
In CRM 2013 online, I am embedding a html WebResource to display a JQuery DataTable object in Account form. The JQuery DataTable queries an external database thru its restful API. Somehow, the DataTable does not display data in
Account form. My first question is: does JQuery DataTable work with CRM online?

Hi, Polat-
Thanks for your relay. I am using JQuery DataTable ajax object to fill the html table. It does not get data from service API. It always goes to the error block. What went wrong? Thanks.
var oData = null;
               // Perform a synchronous oData retrieve
               $(document).ready(function() {
                       $('#example').dataTable( {
                           "ajax": {

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.
Jeet S

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:

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Google Chrome not populating popups working correctly with pop ups.

If incorrect forum, just alert and move. I am having an issue with hosted Microsoft Dynamics 2013 and Google Chrome latest release, 31. This just started with the hosted version of Dynamics CRM 2013, Chrome had been working correctly with
our earlier version of CRM.
When users on latest version of Chrome, 31, login to Dynamics CRM 2013, everything looks fine. Issue is specifically, for sales folks, when they open a client record, and where the client info is located, there is a standard date and time and tiny
little calendar you can pull up if you click on it. When the user clicks on the tiny little calendar, they DO get a pop up, but the pop up is blank. And, there is no error message at all. Nothing freezes, nothing bad happens at all, except
for the salesperson, who live and die by their calendars and ability to schedule appointments and see exiting appointments.
This is not some in house coding issue. It is a generic CRM phone call record that has this issue.
Again, no errors, nothing crashes, but Dynamics CRM 2013 is useless to Google Chrome users in house because of this. Which, in a support position, is terrible. Users who got an upgrade, have their favorite interface rendered useless. And these
are sales folks. And, I did all settings according to what I was able to find for CRM 2010 and Chrome, for when pop ups do not work, and all settings were already correct for pop ups, website is in trusted sites, etc, which is what I expected, since
everything worked on CRM 2010.
Any clues or ideas? Thank You.
Rick

CRM 2013 online - deploy a 2015 solution package to crm 2013

Hi,
We have staging online CRM upgraded to 2015 already, however, the prod CRM still stays in version 2013 during this transition time. We developed some functions in staging CRM, such as new attributes, web resources, workflows, etc, and packaged
them into a solution. When we imported the solution to production(2013), we had the error saying '...invalid XML in package...'. Is there any way to fix it? Thanks.

Hello,
So if I have got it right, you want to export your solution from CRM 2015 to CRM 2013 which is your production. Unfortunately you cant do this as any solution exported from a newer version of Microsoft Dynamics CRM (which is crm 2015 in your case)
cannot be imported into an older version of Microsoft Dynamics CRM (which is CRM 2013 in your case).
You can also refer the following link for more information:-
