SSRS Extension Installation does not display SSRS Instances – CRM 2011

Rajeev Pentyala – Technical Blog on Power Platform, Azure and AI

The other day to configure CRM environment, we were installing “Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Reporting Extension” and to our surprise

“SSRS Instance” dropdown was blank and we could not proceed further

Reporting Extensions Setup

Reason

We had 2 machines one with CRM application server and another with both “SQL server” & “SSRS Reporting services”
The reason in our case was, we were trying to install “Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Reporting Extension” on the CRM application server machine

Fix

You must run CRM Reporting Extensions Setup on a computer that has Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services or Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services installed

Here is the MSDN’s CRM 2011 Reporting Extensions Installation Guide

The operation could not be completed because you do not have read access on some of the fields in {0} record error in CRM 2013\2015

Hi,

While trying to add a new quote record to an opportunity record, we were getting the below error

The issue turned out that the user was not having read access to one of the fields in the opportunity record configured through Field Level Security.

Hope it helps..

Using Action to trigger Plugin in CRM 2013\2015

Hi,

We recently had a requirement to call Plugin on execute of an Action.

To implement this,

We created a blank Action named Trigger Plugin for custom entity named Security Entity.

Open Plugin Registration Tool and connect to the Org and we will have our action available there as message for our Plugin Step

We can execute our Action from C# and Jscript which in turns will call our Plugin.

C# Code:

Jscript Code:

</p>
<p>var xml = "" +<br />
"&lt;s:Envelope xmlns:s=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\"&gt;&lt;s:Body&gt;&lt;Execute xmlns=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts/Services\" xmlns:i=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\"&gt;&lt;request xmlns:a=\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts\"&gt;&lt;a:Parameters xmlns:b=\"http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/System.Collections.Generic\"&gt;&lt;a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType&gt;&lt;b:key&gt;Target&lt;/b:key&gt;&lt;b:value i:type=\"a:EntityReference\"&gt;&lt;a:Id&gt;1c54dadd-f91b-e511-a5ca-c4346bacae20&lt;/a:Id&gt;&lt;a:LogicalName&gt;tk_securityentity&lt;/a:LogicalName&gt;&lt;a:Name i:nil=\"true\"/&gt;&lt;/b:value&gt;&lt;/a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType&gt;&lt;/a:Parameters&gt;&lt;a:RequestId i:nil=\"true\"/&gt;&lt;a:RequestName&gt;new_TriggerPlugin&lt;/a:RequestName&gt;&lt;/request&gt;&lt;/Execute&gt;&lt;/s:Body&gt;&lt;/s:Envelope&gt;" +<br />
"";</p>
<p>var xmlHttpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();</p>
<p>xmlHttpRequest.open("POST", Xrm.Page.context.getClientUrl() +"/XRMServices/2011/Organization.svc/web", false);<br />
xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction","http://schemas.microsoft.com/xrm/2011/Contracts/Services/IOrganizationService/Execute");<br />
xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8");<br />
xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/xml, text/xml, */*");<br />
xmlHttpRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Length", xml.length);<br />
xmlHttpRequest.send(xml);</p>
<p>var resultXml = xmlHttpRequest.responseText;<br />
alert(resultXml);</p>
<p>

Use the SoapLogger tool to get the Soap request
