Customization Import failed. Error: OrganizationUI With Id =…… Does Not Exist or Failure: new_…: The requested record was not found or you do not have sufficient permissions to view it.


I was getting this error when i was trying to import customization for one of our custom entity from our development server to test server.

The way i resolved was

1) Opened the customization.xml file i was trying to import.

2) Search for the organization id which was mentioned in the event log as one not existing. (OrganizationUI With Id = 42467170-73ec-4b39-8eca-309ab0daece9 Does Not Exist)

3) I found the id in the  <FormXml id=”{42467170-73ec-4b39-8eca-309ab0daece9}”> tag.

4) I exported the customization for the same entity from my test server.

5) In the customization file(test server) i found out it had different id for FormXml.

6) Replace the id value for FormXml in the development server’s customization with id i found at the test server for the same entity.

7) Than i tried importing this newly modified file and it imported without giving any error.

Setting Built In and Custom Document Properties using C#


Create a new windows application project and add a button to it.

On click of that button, we will open a document and add values for a built in and custom document properties.

Than add reference to (Word 10.0 or 11.0 object library) and Microsoft.Office.Core.dll within COM tab of Add reference dialog box.

After adding reference, add this directive

using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word

using System.Reflection;

Put the following code in the button click event handler

// For optional parameters create a missing object

object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;

// Create an object for filename which is the file to be opened

object fileName = @”C:\MySecond.doc”;

// Create an object of application class

ApplicationClass WordApp = new ApplicationClass();

// open the document specified in the fileName variable

Document adoc = WordApp.Documents.Open(ref fileName, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,

ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,

ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);

 

// setting the document built in properties

object oDocBuiltInProps = adoc.BuiltInDocumentProperties;

Type typeDocBuiltInProps = oDocBuiltInProps.GetType();

// setting the Title property with value “My Proposal”

string strIndex = “Title”;

string strValue = “My Proposal”;

typeDocBuiltInProps.InvokeMember(“Item”,

BindingFlags.Default |

BindingFlags.SetProperty,

null, oDocBuiltInProps,

new object[] { strIndex, strValue });

 

 

// setting the custome document properties

object oDocCustomProps = adoc.CustomDocumentProperties;

Type typeDocCustomProps = oDocCustomProps.GetType();

// setting the ProposalSentDate custom date property with current date time

string strIndex1 = “ProposalSentDate”;

string strValue1 = DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();

object[] oArg = { strIndex1, false, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoDocProperties.msoPropertyTypeDate, strValue1 };

typeDocCustomProps.InvokeMember(“Add”,

BindingFlags.Default |

BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null,

oDocCustomProps,oArg);

 

WordApp.Visible = true;

Range myRange = adoc.Range(ref missing, ref missing);

myRange.InsertAfter(“Hello Mickey Mouse GG “);

object oStyleName = “Heading 1”;

myRange.set_Style(ref oStyleName);

object start=WordApp.ActiveDocument.Content.End – 1;

Range rangeForTOC = adoc.Range(ref start, ref missing);

TableOfContents toc=adoc.TablesOfContents.Add(rangeForTOC, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);

toc.Update();

Upgrade or Using CRM 3 callouts in CRM 4


Hi,

These are the steps we followed for using crm 3.0 callouts in crm 4.0

In one case we upgraded our crm 3.0 to crm 4.0,

We had to put our crm 3.0 callouts in the following path

C:\Program Files\Microsoft CRM\Server\bin\assembly

We also had to put Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Callout.Base in the GAC.

Followed by an IISRESET

In second case, we had a fresh installation of  CRM 4.0.

We had to put our crm 3.0 callouts in the following path

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics CRM\Server\bin\assembly.

Followed by an IISRESET.

And things worked fine for us!!!
