Fixed – The product cannot be added because it is not active while creating Quote Product – Dynamics 365 / Dataverse

We got the below error while trying to create a quote product programmatically.

As the error message specifies, this is because we are trying to add/associate a DRAFT product to the Quote Product.

We will get a similar error from the application as well if we try adding a draft product as an existing product to either a quote product or an opportunity product.

Below is the product in the Draft status.

Publish the product to make it Active.

How to – Filter using related table(lookup)’s Multi Choices or MultiSelect Option Set column– PowerApps / Dataverse / Dynamics 365

Continuing our previous example, here we have added a new choice field in Table B.

Here Table A has a lookup of Table B which has the new multichoice column added to it. (Also Table B has a lookup of Table C in it)

Based on the values selected in the multiple-choice field’s combo box we will filter the gallery.

The syntax to bind the multichoice column to the combo box.

Choices(Table[@choicecolumn])

First, for the Items property of the Main Gallery, we have added the new column ColorChoices to Table A using the AddColumns and the Lookup function.

Then filtered based on selected items of the combo color choices, using the new ColorChoices column added.

ChoiceColumn[@Value] in comboBox.SelectedItems

We have also used the newly added ColorChoices column to bind it to the gallery inside the main gallery as it would have multiple values.

The result –

How to – Filter Collection / Items in Gallery based on the related (Lookup) record’s value – Power Apps / Canvas Apps (Dataverse/Dynamics 365)

Suppose we have 3 tables, Table A, Table B, and Table C related to each other as

Table A (n-1) Table B (n-1) Table C i.e.

Table A has a lookup of Table B and Table B has a lookup of Table C.

Below is our sample canvas app that has a gallery and a combo box.

What we would want is based on the Table C record’s name selected in the combo box, we want to filter the collection to only show those records that are related to it.

One of the ways we could implement this is by using the AddColumns to add Table C data to Table A and apply the Filter to it.

Below is the formula to achieve the same.

In Table A, add a column name “TableCName”.

To get the Table C name, perform a Lookup on Table B, where Table B GUID is equal to Table A’s Table B lookup field, and then fetch the Table C Lookup’s name from Table B.

And lastly, perform a Filter on this new column TableCName, based on the selected value in the combo box.

Similarly on selecting Table C2 in the combo box

InvalidPluginExecutionException error dialog not showing up – Dynamis 365 / Dataverse

One of the reasons why throwing the InvalidPluginExecutionException doesn’t show up error dialog could be that you would have Profiled that step with profile storage as Persist to Entity.
