As far as mobile development is concerned, I’m an absolute newbie at this point.. So, this might be something obvious for those who have been doing mobile development for a while, but, since I have no idea what’s normal what’s not, maybe this post will help somebody else to get things going a little faster.… Read More »
For a little while now I’ve been wondering if it’s a bug or if it’s a feature that, at least in the more recent versions of Dynamics, System Administrators won’t be able to choose those entity forms that were not assigned to the “System Administrator” security role? It seems it was different in 2011, and,… Read More »
When defining a formula in the business rules editor, we can only use two entity fields: So, what are we supposed to do when we have, for example, four fields to sum up (other than creating a calculated field or adding a javascript/workflow/plugin)?

In particular, we’ve… Read More »
There is an interesting limitation of the business rules for which there seem to be no other workaround but to use javascript. Imagine the following situation: There is a user who has read-only access to the account record through the security roles There is a business rule that unlocks a field on the account form In theory, since… Read More »
In the last few years, I worked on a few Dynamics projects that involved data migration, and, somehow, most of the times I would settle on the approach to the data migration which I tried to illustrate on the diagram below: The main reason I usually do it this way is that, when I have… Read More »
I ran into this myself not so long ago, and I just saw the same problem in the community forums, so this is probably something that’s worth being mentioned in a separate blog post. Not every control can be disabled in Dynamics using setDisabled method It might not be obvious from the description of setDisabled method in… Read More »
