Unlocking and using the Associate/Dissociate Entities Message in Crm 4

Pre-requisites:

• See Aaron Elder's Posting I find your lack of events disturbing

After using the SQL from Aarons post, when you open the plugin registration tool, you will now have two new messages available. AssociateEntity and DissociateEntity. You will find these using these messages a quick alternative to otherwise hacking the grid. Plus, according to Aaron’s post, he is pushing Microsoft to ‘Unlock’ these messages in an upcoming Rollup so this may very well become supported evetually. First let’s take a look at some sample code from a plugin i wrote to work with these new messages:

public class ManyToManyTriggerContactUpdate : IPlugin
  {
      private const string MONIKER1 = "moniker1";
      private const string MONIKER2 = "moniker2";
      private const string ENTITY_TO_CAPTURE = "contact"; 

      /// <summary> 
      /// Intercepts the Associate Entities message updates and triggers an update 
      /// </summary> 
      /// <param name="context"></param> 
      public void Execute(IPluginExecutionContext context)
      {
          //Check if the first moniker is the purchase order 
          if (context.InputParameters.Properties.Contains(MONIKER2) &&
              context.InputParameters.Properties[MONIKER2] is Moniker)
          {
              Moniker moniker2 = (Moniker)context.InputParameters.Properties[MONIKER2];

              if (moniker2.Name == ENTITY_TO_CAPTURE )
              {
                  DynamicEntity triggerContactUpdate = new DynamicEntity();

                 triggerContactUpdate.Name = PURCHASE_ORDER_ENTITY;
                 triggerContactUpdate.Properties.Add(new KeyProperty("contactid", new Key(moniker2.Id)));

                  context.CreateCrmService(true).Update(triggerContactUpdate);
                  //return if we successfully triggered an update 
                  return;
              }

          }
          if (context.InputParameters.Properties.Contains(MONIKER1) &&
              context.InputParameters.Properties[MONIKER1] is Moniker)
          {
              Moniker moniker1 = (Moniker)context.InputParameters.Properties[MONIKER1];

              if (moniker1.Name == ENTITY_TO_CAPTURE)
              {
                  DynamicEntity triggerContactUpdate = new DynamicEntity();

                  triggerContactUpdate.Name = ENTITY_TO_CAPTURE ;
                  triggerContactUpdate.Properties.Add(new KeyProperty("contactid", new Key(moniker1.Id)));

                  context.CreateCrmService(true).Update(triggerContactUpdate);
                  return;
              }
          }
      }
  }

This plugin checks the name of the monikers to see if one is the contact entity. The reason we have to check the Monikers is because the Associate message currently cannot be assigned to an entity, therefore all Associate/Dissociate Messages are captured by the plugin. While this may not be ideal for optimal performance, there is very little overhead in checking a few values after the message executes. The rest of this plugin creates a Dynamic entity of contact , assigns the key from the moniker and uses the ICrmService to trigger an update. So whenever ‘Add Existing’ is clicked in Crm, the contact record will be updated. Of course you will probably set values to be updated on the contact, or like this one, just needed to fire an update plugin on the contact.

Ah, the disclaimer:

This hack is currently unsupported by Microsoft so please use at your own risk. I nor Microsoft will take any responsibility if something goes wrong. I will try to answer any question, however you are mostly on your own with this.

Happy Hacking!

  • To
  • Cc
  • Bcc
  • From
  However, you expect that these properties also contain display names.
• Consider the following scenario. You enable the User Account Control feature on a Windows Vista-based computer. In the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 client for Outlook, you click CRM, and then you click Import Data. In this scenario, you receive the following error message:
  There was an error while executing action for the menu item/button.
• When you save a security role that is used in multiple Active Directory domain controllers on different subnets, Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 becomes unresponsive for two to three minutes. However, after two to three minutes, the security role is saved.
• When you import a customization, you receive the following error message:
  Failure: TransactionCurrency_New__test_new: A SQL-Server error occurred. Try this action again.
  This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
  • The customization that you want to import was exported from another Microsoft Dynamics CRM organization.
  • You deleted the last money typeattribute of an entity in the customization.
  NOTE: You must apply Update Rollup 4 to the organization from which you export the customizations in order to resolve the issue when you import those customizations.
• You change text of a label. However, when you click Save to save the changed text, the text reverts back to the original text. This problem occurs if you applied Update Rollup 2 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0.
• You go offline in the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 client for Outlook. When you try to create or open a record, you receive the following error message:
  Record is unavailable. The requested record was not found or you do not have sufficient permissions to view it. If you are offline, the record was not taken offline. Update your local data groups to include this record and resynchronize.
  This problem occurs because you have limited access tothe BusinessUnit entity.
• After you import an organization, the owner of the reports is not updated as expected.
• When you use the Import Wizard to import some data, some incorrect rows may be created. Therefore, you run the Export Error Rows function to export these incorrect rows, and then you import the data again. However, in a non-English environment, the Import Wizard cannot recognize the .CSV file that is created by the Export Error Rows function. As result, the automatic data map that is used in the import process cannot be used again if you import the data again.
• You configure an e-mail route to monitor the user mailboxes for incoming e-mail messages. However, if an error occurs when an e-mail message is processed, the e-mail message is moved to the Undeliverable folder unexpectedly.
• In the EmailAgent.xml file, the LogLevel parameter is reset to 1 either when the E-Mail Router service is restarted or when the ConfigUpdatePeriod time value is reached. Therefore, the logging process cannot be controlled at the individual user level.
• The Dispose method of the CrmImpersonator class does work as expected. Therefore, some resources cannot be released and a memory leak may occur.
• When you run the Export Report to Excel function by using the Dynamics PivotTable option, you receive the following error message:
  This file cannot be opened because of errors. Errors are listed in: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary InternetFiles\Content.MSO\FileName.log

  GROUP: PivotField
  TAG: Name
  VALUE: Activity Type
  This problem occurs if you export some reports from a custom view that contains the activitytypecode attribute.
• After you install Update Rollup 2 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0, the tab ordering in a form is incorrect. This problem occurs if a section in the form has more fields in the right column than in the left column.
• The dynamic values are formatted incorrectly for numeric values when you create a workflow rule. This problem occurs if the numeric separator in the regional settings has changed from a default numeric separator.
• When you try to merge two accounts or two contacts, you receive the following error message:
  The status of the contract does not allow this action.
  Additionally, if you have enabled the Platform tracing functionality, you also receive an error that resembles the following:
  Error Number: 0x80043203 Error Message: The state is invalid, this contract line item cannot be updated.
  This problem occurs if a subordinate contact or a subordinate account has some active contracts that contain contract lines.
• You create a workflow rule for an entity. The entity contains a primary attribute that has more than 256 characters. However, when you perform the workflow rule, you receive the following error message:
  MessageProcessor fail to process message 'Create' for 'asyncoperation'.
  Crm Exception: Message: , ErrorCode: -2147204784, InnerException:
  System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: String or binary data would be truncated.
  The statement has been terminated.
• You create an e-mail template. However, when you use the template, single space characters are not recognized. Additionally, two space characters and three space characters are recognized as single space characters.
• If you edit an .XML file, a custom attribute can be added as a system attribute. For example, if you set zero in the tag in the .XML file or if you remove the IsCustomField node from the XML file, the IsCustomFieldattribute is displayed as a system attribute.
• You can add a user who does not belong to a specified organizational unit (OU) to an OU even if you set the UserRootPath value to restrict Active Directory searches.

Identify a DTS Package from an Encrypted DTSRun

From:

SQL Server Blogs
Vipul Shah's SQL Blogs

That way you will have meaningful package name in your job. But in case for some reason, you do have those Jobs with weird encrypted DTS package name, here is how you can identify which package is being called by that step (this is something I found from SQL Forum):

1. Copy the DTSRUN line (everything including the DTSRUN)
2. Open a Windows Command Line window
3. Paste the DTSRUN line into the CMD window.
4. To the end of the line, add /!X /!C
/!X = do not execute /!C = copy results onto Windows Clipboard
5. Run the command
6. Open Notepad
7. Click Edit>Paste
that will paste the actual command into Notepad and it will show the name of the package.
