On demand workflow javascript crm 2013

Hi
I am struggling to make the on-demand workflow working in JavaScript in CRM 2013. Can you please help ?
it was working fine in CRM 2011.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
   There is no change. However here is the code snippet
function RunWorkflow() {
var _return = window.confirm('Are you want to execute workflow.');
if (_return) {
var url = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();
var entityId = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();
var workflowId = '541B45C9-3F88-4448-9690-2D4A365C3172';
var OrgServicePath = "/XRMServices/2011/Organization.svc/web";
url = url + OrgServicePath;
var request;
request = "<s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">" +

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("POST", url, true)

  • Can't run workflows on CRM 2013

    Hi guys,
    We've encountered an issue on one of our CRM servers that we can't run any workflows - we immediately get an exception.  Looking at the traces we get this:
    >System.NullReferenceException: Microsoft Dynamics CRM has experienced an error. Reference number for administrators or support: #53B90165: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    >   at Microsoft.Crm.Extensibility.OrganizationSdkServiceInternal.ValidateRequestParameters(SdkRequestDescription requestDescription, OrganizationRequest request, IOrganizationContext context)

    >   at Microsoft.Crm.Extensibility.OrganizationSdkServiceInternal.Execute(OrganizationRequest request, CorrelationToken correlationToken, CallerOriginToken callerOriginToken, WebServiceType serviceType, Boolean checkAdminMode)
    Looks to me like there's some sort of internal error in the CRM, but I can't get any more information than that so it's pretty useless.
    Can anyone assist with what's going wrong with this?

    Hello,
    have you got any custom workflow assembly registered on your CRM system? if yes then check to make sure it is not causing this failure.
    one thing you could try is create new Draft workflow and see if system allows you to create new Draft workflow or not?

    Are you on-premise, or on-line? : It's on-premise
    Can you reproduce it on-demand, or is it sporadic?: It's sporadic
    There is a mention of loading an iFrame in the error, do you have iFrames on the form that generates this error?
    It's not on specific forms, so can't identify that. Yes we have iframes on some forms.
    Does it happen on any/all entity forms, or specific ones?  Do the entity forms have any custom JavaScript on them?
    It's not on specific forms. And yes we have javascript on almost all forms.
    Do you have any network problems or slowness in your network? Does the problem happen when the network is busy?
    We need to check this on next occurrence.
    Do the users that see this error have any unusual add-ins or toolbars in their browser?  This is not for specific user. Its happening for all randomly.
    Have you tried other browsers like Chrome or FireFox and do users see the problem there as well?
    We need to check only for IE.

  • Impersonation using javascript in MS CRM 2013

    Could it be possible to retrieve records on behalf of another user in MS CRM 2013/2015 using javascript. Is there any way to use ActOnBehalfOf privilege using javascript? 

    Hi,
         This would not be possible from JavaScript due to security reasons I would think. I would write a custom workflow activity / custom action / custom plug-in for this as this code sits on server side and not client side for this.
    Hope this helps.

  • CRM 2013 - Convert Async workflow to Synchronous

    Hi,
    I already have a async workflow in place in CRM but I would like to convert the workflow to synchronous workflow and set ‘Execute’ as “The user who made changes to the record”
    in the synchronous workflow programmatically. I am able to find the required workflow and deactivate it. How do I set the workflow's mode property to WorkflowMode.Realtime?
    //Deactivate the workflow
    var deactivateRequest = new SetStateRequest
    EntityMoniker = new EntityReference (Workflow.EntityLogicalName, ent.Id),
    State = new OptionSetValue((int)WorkflowState.Draft),
    Status = new OptionSetValue(1)
    orgService.Execute(deactivateRequest);
    //Convert workflow to Synchronous workflow
    UpdateRequest updateWorkflowType = new UpdateRequest()
    //How to set Mode property to WorkflowMode.Realtime?
    orgService.Execute(updateWorkflowType);
    Thanks,
    Anna'

    Hello,
    Try to use following code:
    Entity workflow = new Entity("workflow")
    Id = ent.Id
    workflow["mode"] = new OptionSet(1);
    orgService.Update(workflow);

  • 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.

  • CRM 2013 - "Save and Close" button behavnig like "Save and New"

    Hi,
    I am working in CRM 2013. I have a scenario in which I am saving new opportunity product record through javascript and preventing original save of CRM. Save is working fine. After save, I need to refresh the screen. So I have used "Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm"
    to open newly created item in edit mode. When I click on "Save and Close" button on this new form in edit mode, instead of closing the opportunity product screen, it opens new entity form. So in short, after saving the record, if I click on "Save
    and Close", it behaves like "Save and New".
    Any one facing such issue?

    Save & Close seems to behave like the Save & "Back" Button, so the form tries to return to the new form, that was opened before.
    But I have no solution for this behavior...

  • Best practice for encrypting data in CRM 2013 (other than the fields it already encrypts)

    I know CRM 2013 can encrypt some values by default, but if I want to store data in custom fields then encrypt that, what's the best practice?  I'm working on a project to do this through a javascript action that when triggered from a form would reference
    a web service to decrypt values and a plugin to encrypt on Update/Create, but I hoped there might be a simpler or more suggested way to do this.
    Thanks.

    At what level are you encrypting?  CRM 2013 supports encrypted databases if you're worried about the data at rest.
    In transit, you should be using SSL to encrypt the entire process, not just individual data.
    you can use field-level security to not display certain fields to end users of a certain type if you're worried about that.  It's even more secure than anything you could do with JS, as the data is never passed over the wire.
    Is there something those don't solve?

  • 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:-

    1. via outlook
    2.  Via Exchange Server.
    Tried through email router (exchange server), but it requires exchange online or SMTP for outgoing profile.
    I  do have exchange on premise setup, I am not sure about SMTP option.
    My queries are:
    > Can we configure Exchange server to work as Exchange Online?
    > what other option, I can try for email Processing?
    looking for your suggestions...
    Thanks in advance!

    If you have Exchange onPremise, then you should be able to use the email router or server side sync in combination with CRM workflows (to generate the email).  This is a fairly common scenario.  You do not need Exchange Online.

  • Dynamically Populated Option Sets in CRM 2013

    Hello,
    In my solution, I have an entity with an option set attribute that has no option values by default. A script in the entity form handles the population of the option set dropdown via .addOption. The displayed value of the attribute shows blank or "--"
    (for CRM 2013). The expected behavior is that when the user selects an item in the dropdown, the field value changes and then displays the selected value. Another attribute (single line of text) then gets that value for later use. This works just fine in CRM
    2011.
    However, in CRM 2013, selecting a value in the dropdown does not change the displayed value of the field. Putting focus again on the dropdown shows that the default value (blank) is selected (or nothing is selected).
    I tried to modify the field value using Xrm.Page/Entity and even JQuery directly on elements to at least to display the selected text, change some attributes, etc. None of this works. It should be noted that when attaching a "change" handler in
    JQuery to the dropdown, it fires. When specifying a change handler for the field in the form properties, it does not fire.
    I have another idea involving creating a workflow that runs periodically or another server process/plugin to dynamically populate a global option set, and then point my entity's option set attribute to that option set. If you're wondering why a workflow,
    the attribute is supposed to be a list of all existing entity names in the current default solution. If for some reason entities are added/removed from the solution, my option set needs to be brought up-to-date.
    Before going down this road, I'm wondering if any of you have encountered this and how you got around it.
    Thanks!

    Hello Mahender
    As Rod mentioned in his query, the option set attribute is supposed to be a list of all existing entity names in the current CRM organization . If for some reason entities are added/removed from the organization, the option set needs to be updated.
    Hence we created a blank option set attribute. Now, OnLoad of the form, we populate the option set using .addOption() method. This populates the option set, but on selection change, attribute's OnChange() is not getting triggered and also, the selected value
    is not visible on form.
    Below is an example of what we are trying to achieve

    I hope I am able to explain my query in detail here.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
