Is there any way too see all data on all enteties an user owns.

Question

Hi all,
Is there any way to see all data an user owns in CRM2011?
Maybe an custom report or view?

I could only think of one solution to this, a little bit of code to get a list of records a user owns. The List contains Entity objects with the Id & LogicalName. You could do this with a report too but you'll have to query every entity...
public List<Entity> GetOwningRecords(IOrganizationService service, Guid systemUserId)
List<Entity> owningRecords = new List<Entity>();
RetrieveAllEntitiesRequest retrieveAllEntitiesRequest = new RetrieveAllEntitiesRequest();
retrieveAllEntitiesRequest.EntityFilters = EntityFilters.Entity;
retrieveAllEntitiesRequest.RetrieveAsIfPublished = true;
RetrieveAllEntitiesResponse retrieveAllEntitiesResponse = (RetrieveAllEntitiesResponse)service.Execute(retrieveAllEntitiesRequest);
foreach (EntityMetadata entityMetadata in retrieveAllEntitiesResponse.EntityMetadata)
if (entityMetadata.OwnershipType != OwnershipTypes.UserOwned)
continue;
try
QueryExpression query = new QueryExpression(entityMetadata.LogicalName)
ColumnSet = new ColumnSet("ownerid"),
Criteria =
Conditions =
new ConditionExpression("ownerid",ConditionOperator.Equal, systemUserId)
EntityCollection result = service.RetrieveMultiple(query);
foreach (Entity entity in result.Entities)
owningRecords.Add(entity);
catch (FaultException<OrganizationServiceFault>)
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Couldn't retrieve the records for {0}", entityMetadata.LogicalName));
catch (Exception)
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Unexpected error for {0}", entityMetadata.LogicalName));
return owningRecords;
Hope this helps
