How to – Filter SubGrid in Dynamics 365 (with New Form Rendering or Turbo Form)

Recently we had a requirement wherein we wanted to see all the child records of a record in a SubGrid .

We had self-referential (hierarchical relationship) enabled for that entity.

Configuring the Sub Grid on the form.

We have also enabled the Editable grid for the Sub Grid.

The JavaScript code

</p>
<p>function filterSubGrid()<br />
{<br />
// get the current record's guid<br />
var entityId = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();</p>
<p>// refer the subgrid<br />
var testGrid = window.parent.document.getElementById("Test");</p>
<p>if (testGrid == null)<br />
{<br />
setTimeout(function () {filterSubGrid(); }, 2000);<br />
return;<br />
}</p>
<p>// fetch xml code using User operator<br />
var fetchXml = "&lt;fetch distinct='false' no-lock='false' mapping='logical'&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;entity name='new_test' &gt;" +<br />
"&lt;attribute name='new_name' /&gt;" +<br />
" &lt;attribute name='new_testname' /&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;order attribute='new_name' descending='true' /&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;filter type='and'&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;condition attribute='new_testid' operator='under' value='"+entityId+"'"+"/&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;/filter&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;/entity&gt;" +<br />
"&lt;/fetch&gt;";</p>
<p>if (testGrid.control != null)<br />
{<br />
testGrid.control.SetParameter("fetchXml", fetchXml);<br />
testGrid.control.refresh();<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
setTimeout(filterSubGrid, 500);<br />
}<br />
}</p>
<p>

The filtered Sub Grid (editable)

Note :- The JavaScript code is unsupported as we are making use of getElementById instead of Xrm library to access subgrid.

Fixing – “We’re sorry. You do not have sufficient permission on the server to load the application” error in Dynamics 365 for Tablet.

Recently while configuring Dynamics 365 for Tablet we got the below error.

“We’re sorry. You do not have sufficient permission on the server to load the application”

After enabling the tracing we got the details of the error.

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh699694.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396#BKMK_MoCA_tracing

The user was having a custom security role to which we had to add the permission for the following entities

Connection
Role
Connection role
User Dashboard
Note etc..

After updating the security roles with all the required permissions, we were able to use the App.

How to – Use ILMerge for Plugin in CRM

If we make use of external assembly in our Plugin (sandboxed) we will get the exception of FileNotFound.

So here we can make use of ILMerge which basically merges the assembly referenced and the plugin into a single assembly.

Install the following NuGet Package.

This adds the following files in our Plugin project.

We need to set Copy Local as true for all our referenced assembly that we want to merge with our plugin.

We need to set Copy Local as false for all other assemblies that we do not want to be merged with plugin.

Just build the project and we are done.

The assembly inside Reflector: –

Caching Issue in The Portal Connector (TPC)

We had products configured from CRM to E Commerce settings in TPC. However, what we observed that any update that we are making to prices in the product is not reflecting to the end user using the Portal.

We cleared the cache, deleted the product form TPC did full synchronization etc. but still we were getting the same price for the products in the Product List.

In Product List

The price for the product (the same was the value in CRM)

However, for the end user in the portal the value was showing up the old value.

Eventually we ended up cloning up i.e. creating a new Product with exact same details and doing full synchronization inside TPC.

This worked.

Query CRM from The Portal Connector (TPC) through Saved Queries

Within The Portal Connector we can make use of Saved Queries to define Fetch XML Query.

Once defined we get a REST based URL which can be used from our client side script.

Click on Create a Saved Query

Click on Build and create a Fetch XML Query

The fetch xml builder

We can see the parameter added to the query string.

To consume it we can make use of JavaScript widget

Click on Edit and define the JavaScript inside it to call the function

The JavaScript code.


setTimeout(function(){

// get the logged in user's email i.e. contact in CRM

var userEmail=tpc.identity.userEmail;

var resp = $.ajax({
url: "http://abc.crmportalconnector.com/SavedQueryService/Execute/loyaltypointsavedquery/" + userEmail,
async: false,
dataType: "JSON",
}).responseJSON;
if(resp != null && resp.data != null)
{
var lp = resp.data[0].Attributes.new_loyaltypoint;
document.getElementById("lp").innerHTML = lp;
}
}, 1500);

Hope it helps..
