Is it possible to have a status field(say an option set - Fulfilled and Out of Stock) for each item in the order product inline editable grid? I tried adding a field "Item Status" to the Order Line entity form and editing the view but it does not work. Using a third party solution is not an option.
It's not possible to change the out-of-the-box editable grids. Custom editable grids were introduced in Dynamics 365, but still you will not be able to use it for this case, because they do not support Order Products. You would have to create a custom Order Products if you want to use it, but I believe that's not what you are after. So third-party solution is the only option.

I am wondering if there is a way to customize the salesorder manager form /app/accounting/transactions/salesordermanager.nl?type=fulfill&whence=
We need to add a custom field that is to be populate for the fulfillment (it is used during the one by one process, it is also needed during the bulk process)
Not sure if you can customize this page but for your use case, there is a Set Fields tab under the filters. You can choose your custom field in the tab then assign the value.
Up through MS CRM 2015 we have been successfully using jquery.ui to set input and view masks for common address data based on the country of the address. We store these masks with a custom country entity. The default CRM field is hidden. Using JQuery we create a simple textbox and apply the mask to the value in the field based on the country value submitted.
Is there a way to add phone masking to CRM Forms in 2016? Any help is greatly appreciated!
I'm not sure why you say that CRM 2016 does not allow DOM manipulation. It doesn't allow it any more than any other version of CRM. No DOM manipulation is supported, although nothing is preventing you from doing so, except that Microsoft may completely change the DOM and break everything you customized.
Actually 2016 happens to be the only version of CRM that this actually is possible in a supported manner without using an iFramed Web Resource. Your basic setup with be as follows
In the OnLoad of the form
Retrieve the Country Phone Number Mask
Apply the mask to the field.
Add an OnKeyPress function to the field that removes the mask as the user types.
Use a web resource for that. Is the supported alternative version. Manipulating the DOM directly is bad practice as it might change across versions.
I have a custom entity Partnership in which I have one lookup field contacts.
now I want to add the name field value of the partnership from contact fullname in time of creation of Partnership.
is it possible with the help of pre-existing configuration settings,(without plugin or web resource)
Thanks.
Without using a plug-in or web resource you have a couple options.
1- You can configure the mappings between the 2 entities by going to the Entity (contact) -> Relationship -> Mappings -> and add a new mapping there. For this to work though, you will need to create the child record from the subgrid of the contact, and if the contact changes it won't update the values. So it may or may not be an ideal solution for you.
2- You can create a workflow rule that runs on create and/or update of the Partnership record that pulls the value from the parent contact onto the partnership record. The downside of this is that workflows are async so you won't see the update for a few seconds and refresh the Partner record.
Hope this helps.
If you want to be able to click the "New Partnership" button in the CRM ribbon, then select a contact, and have the name of the contact, be used to populate another field on the form, you will have to use JavaScript. There is no configurable way of doing it.
If you'd like the value to be populated before it is saved in the CRM database, you could use JavaScript, or a custom Plugin. If you'd like the value to be updated after the record is created, you could use a workflow.
You'll have to use one of those three methods to populate the field. The real question I have though, is why are you bothering to populate the field in the first place? You can add the full Contact name to any view, so I don't see a real big reason to include it.
In my SharePoint List, I have an "Employee" column that is a User type field. I would like to add some custom Business Logic to the processing of this field.
Currently, when the user adds a row, I check to see if the user is an Employee or a Manager and then change the behavior on this column accordingly. I do this by statically rendering the field in my custom "ListForm Rendering Template", just before my custom ListFieldIterator. I simply use a standard SharePoint FormField (and FormLabel) control. In the markup of the FormField control, I specify the FieldName (Employee) and an event handler for the Load event. In this Load event, I will check to see if the current user is an Employee or Manager (using two different SharePoint groups). If the user is an Employee I set the value of the field to the current user (this part works perfectly). I also want to change the field so it can't be modified. I thought I might be able to just change the ControlMode on the field (in the code of the OnLoad Event Handler) to Display, but for some reason this has no effect. The field still renders with the full, people picker editor. Am I not changing the fields control mode soon enough? Or is this simply not the correct approach? The other logic I want to put in is if the user is a Manager, I would like to allow that user to select the person from a list (SharePoint group) of Employees. It may be easier to just use the people picker and limit the selectable users to that group. (I think I can do this with the SelectionGroup property.) Although, it would be better if I could just provide a dropdownlist of users, which I could possibly do with a hidden dropdownlist that I would show and event handlers that I could use (handle event selectedindexchanged) to pull the value selected and populate the (now hidden) Employee (user) field. Does this approach make sense? Assuming all that will work, the real difficulty I am having is with changing the ControlMode (rendering) on the field (when the user is an employee) to a label or some kind of read only control, which is how that field renders when viewing the row, which is why I think if I can just trick the control into thinking it is in Display mode then it should work perfectly!
I am still learning SharePoint, but I am very proficient in ASP .Net. This is why I would like to keep my customizations in this Custom Rendering Template, using code behind and leverage my existing skill set as much as properly.
Any thoughts, opinions or advice? Does anyone know why I can't get the column to switch the "Control Mode"?
I do not think that I fully understand your scenario. Some code samples could help.
But anyway it sounds like you want some heavy customizations of the user field. In that case you might want to have a look at creating a custom field with all its advantages and disadvantages. Have a look at MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg132914.aspx
Another option might be - in case you do not want to re-use this column in many list definitions - that you can get away with your custom rendering template and create a custom create/edit form where you implement the specific edit behaviour for the field (plain ASP.NET with some SharePoint controls). Here is a nice walk-through on how to grab a custom edit form from SharePoint designer: http://community.bamboosolutions.com/blogs/sharepoint-2010/archive/2011/05/12/sharepoint-2010-cookbook-how-to-create-a-customized-list-edit-form-for-development-in-visual-studio-2010.aspx
I hope this helps. Kr., Bernd.
I need to create a new Proccess with Dialog (new Feature in Crm 5.0) which calls a CRM Query, returns a list of Customers, and after selecting the customers we want to use, I call a plugin which then prints the invoices for the Selected Customers. The plugin is programmed and working and also the dialog is created and the entire solution is working perfectly. But only for one Customer :(.
And this is the Issue. When you create a CRM Query in Online Crm 2011, you get 4 options as Response Type:
1.Single Line ( Text Box),
2.List of Options ( Radio Buttons), where only one can be selected,
3.Picklist (DropDown), where also only one item can be selected and
4.Multiline ( Multiline TextBox)
And in my case none of these is not working, because I cannot select more Customers from these Response Types. It works only for one Customer :(
How to solve this issue? What are the options here, maybe a custom User Interface for the Dialog, or what?
What I need is a List of Checkboxes with the Customer Name, and then I can select more then one Customer for the invoicing proccess.
Do I need to take another route in order to achieve this, or will the Dialogs do the job? Or can I create a Custom Response type which renders multiple selectable Checkboxes? If yes, then how can I create a Custom Response Type?
Any suggestion would be apreciated.
Thanks
I don't think the Dialog feature will do what you need (checkbox list selection). Another option would be to add a button on the ribbon, perhaps called Create Invoices, that launches a pop-up window (custom HTML web resource). This pop-up window could simply ask "Are you sure?" or it could even include some custom parameters for the Invoice generation. Upon confirmation, it would use some JavaScript to talk to the ODATA endpoint to update a flag on each of these Customer records that would fire your plugin.
This way, a user could browse to a list of Customers, use the built-in checkbox to check off as many as they like, then click the Create Invoices button.
If you are good with HTML and JavaScript, probably the hardest part of this will be learning how to add a new Ribbon button. It isn't the easiest to learn, but there are plenty of resources out there to help.
