Solved – Disabled Turn on unified routing option in Dynamics 365 Customer Service Hub

Recently while trying to provision Unified Routing from Dynamics 365 Customer Service Hub in one of our trial environments (Service Management >> Service Configuration >> Unified Routing – Turn on unified routing.),

even after providing the consent multiple times (by clicking on Provide consent, with Global Admin role)

it kept coming as disabled and kept asking for providing the consent.

Opening in in-private browsing or a different browser didn’t fix it.

Clearing the cache also didn’t help – Empty Cache and Hard Reload

The trick that worked here was creating a workstream record

which also triggered the provision of Unified Routing

And after our workstream record got created,

we could see the unified routing enabled successfully.

Hope it helps..

How to – Use SetAutoNumberSeed Action to reset/update the seed for the Autonumber attribute – DataVerse (Dynamics 365 / CRM)

Suppose we have the following Autonumber field created with

Seed value – 1000 and Format – {SEQNUM:4}

Now based on a certain requirement, we want to dynamically / programmatically update / reset the seed value.

For this, we can make use SetAutoNumberSeed Action

Below we can see the auto number set as 1007 on creating a new contact record.

Now to set it back to 1000 we can run the following code –

On executing the action, we can see the next contact record having autonumber field set as 1000.

Another example –

On updating the value to 888, and creating a new contact record

Sample code –

                OrganizationRequest customActionRequest =
                    new OrganizationRequest("SetAutoNumberSeed");

                // name of the entity
                customActionRequest["EntityName"] = "contact";

                // attribute's schema name
                customActionRequest["AttributeName"] = "cr59f_myautonumber";

                // the value we want to set
                customActionRequest["Value"] = Convert.ToInt64(888);

                OrganizationResponse customActionResponse = 
                    svc.Execute(customActionRequest);
