Role Based Views in Dynamics CRM – New version released


Debajit's avatarDebajit's Dynamic CRM Blog

Hi All,

Finally got some time around to work on the bug fixes in the my codeplex tool ‘Role Based Views in Microsoft Dynamics CRM’. The new version has been uploaded in codeplex site- https://rolebasedviews.codeplex.com

Thanks everyone for the huge downloads and making the tool so popular.

What’s fixed in this version

  • Error in the tool for users without security roles
  • Intermittent error in the lookup view of the entities configured for role based views
  • Compatibility with CRM 2015 online update 1

Please visit the link https://rolebasedviews.codeplex.com and go to ‘Downloads’ section and download the release – Role Based Views – CRM 2015 Version. Please download both the managed solution as well as the executable as using the new version of the managed solution with the old executable would give an error.

New to the tool? Please check for the Documentations tab at https://rolebasedviews.codeplex.com to learn how to use…

When I tried to run a post create plugin on any activity (i.e. phonecall,  task, email, etc) that time i was unable to get the regardingobjectid in the target entity.

then I looked into the Audit history of this entity and found out that at time of creation we don’t get the “regardingobjectid”, internally some workflow of something runs and it creates one update audit history, and i found out that update audit history really update the regarding object id.

then i registered  my post create plugin to post update plugin and this solved my problem.
