Suppose I find some necessary updates for my CRM 2011 On-Premise installation in UR7 and in UR14. Should I install both the rollups or installing UR14 only will cover all the changes of UR7 as well.
Thanks
You should just install Rollup 14 as it will include Rollup 7.
You must be at Rollup 6 before you can install Rollup 14 (or Rollup 7):
ou must have Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Update Rollup 6 (build 5.0.9690.1992) or a later version of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 installed to apply this update rollup.
You cannot uninstall Rollup 6 as it makes non-reversible changes to the database.
Rollup 12, included in Rollup 14, includes changes to JavaScript and the DOM for multi-browser support which means certain UI customizations may break. I recommend thorough testing - if you have implemented any HTML or JavaScript - before upgrading to Rollup 12 or higher.

My SharePoint Farm is currently running with version 15.0.4849.1000 (CU - August 9, 2016). Now I want to install the recently CU of SharePoint 2013 (version 15.0.5172.1000 - September 2019).
Can I install the latest CU without installing the others CU.

Thanks,
Yes, you could installed the latest CU directly. No other cu is required to patch SharePoint. Each new release contains all the hotfixes and security updates that were included with the previous Microsoft SharePoint 2013 update package releases.

I have to prepare the project for crm 2011's Update RollUp 18. From what I understand, from now onward the Micrososft.CRM.SDK dll is not supported anymore, thus I have removed it from my project. As one would expect, a lot of "could not be found" errors appeared because of the removal. For the code bellow, I have ".. Property could not be found.." and "..StringProperty could not be found .." .
public class ExtMergeName : ExtPropertyBase, ICrmString
{
public Property GetValue()
{
return CrmStringObject;
}
public StringProperty CrmStringObject
{
get
{
return (StringProperty)ReturnStringProperty();
}
}
What can I replace them with?
You are showing a snippet of Dynamics CRM 4.0 code. This is supported in Dynamics CRM 2011, up to the most recent Rollup Update. Support for CRM 4.0 is removed in Dynamics CRM 2013.
When your goal is to upgrade to CRM 2011 only, you can keep your VS projects as is, i.e. referencing assembly microsoft.crm.sdk.dll.
When you are planning to continue upgrading to CRM 2013 or CRM 2015, you need to rewrite your CRM 4.0 code. (Plugins, workflow activities, Javascript, external components accessing the CRM end points.)
More information about the programming model of Dynamics CRM 2011 and how to upgrade from CRM 4.0 can be found on MSDN:
Introduction to Programming Models for Microsoft Dynamics CRM
Summary of Changes Between Versions
In CRM 2011 and newer versions the microsoft.crm.sdk.proxy.dll is used, along with microsoft.xrm.sdk.dll. If you're not already using proper version of the CRM 2011 SDK, you can get that here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24004. If you're trying to use the strongly typed entity classes in custom code, you can generate a correct version of that using the crmsvcutil.exe that comes with the SDK. If that's not exactly what you're looking for, then please provide additional details so I can better understand what you're trying to do.
Feels like I've been running in circles but how do I found that out? What lead me to cause was trying to install a plugin from IOTAP but the import failed.
'PluginType' entity doesn't contain attribute with Name =
'customworkflowactivityinfo'.
Any way of checking the latest rollup for CRM. I'm using 2011 that was an upgrade from 4 and it's online.
You can find an overview of Dynamics CRM version numbers on MSDN blog Dynamics CRM in the Field.
B.t.w. rollup 14 should fix your problem.
While upgrading a solution from CRM 2011 to CRM 2015, I only changed the header of solution.xml file generated in crm 2011 solution export zip to
<ImportExportXml version="7.0.0000.4013" SolutionPackageVersion="7.0" languagecode="1033"
generatedBy="CrmLive" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
and then I imported it to crm 2015. It got imported successfully.
Have any of you found any other way to import to crm 2015 from crm 2011 ?
Sometimes it will not be possible to import your solution this way, due to breaking changes in the solution file. In those cases you could follow these steps:
Import your solution in a clean CRM 2011 organization.
(If needed) upgrade your CRM deployment to the most recent rollup update for CRM 2011.
Upgrade your deployment to CRM 2013.
Upgrade your CRM deployment to the most recent rollup update for CRM 2013.
Upgrade your deployment to CRM 2015.
Export your solution.
Import your solution in your target CRM 2015 organization.
If the solution import does not complain about the validity of your solution, you should be safe to proceed. The import does its checks on the customization xml, so it can not damage your target organization.
Currently searching for CRM 2011 SDK always seems to yield this download page, which is the most current version of the SDK (As of this post, its version 5.0.13 for rollup 12). We are going to be installing rollup 11, on our prod boxes this month. I'd like to get the previous version of the SDK, but have been unable to find it. Does anyone happen to have a link to the 5.0.12 version of the SDK?
I had to downgrade recently and used this link. And I'm not sure if a newer version is recommended. Definitely not UR12.
And for UR11, it's probably this link.
Is that what you're looking for?
