So we have 2 Orgs in our dev CRM environment. Both orgs are using the same worker process (w3wp.exe). So whenever one developer hits a breakpoint in a plugin it locks the process and both orgs stop responding. My question is.. is it possible to put each org in its own process? I don't think that is possible. However, the newest SDK has a new feature in the Plugin Tool that lets you debug plugins locally. Basically, you enable "Profiling" for your plugin through the tool, then go do the action in CRM that would normally fire your plugin. You'll get a pop-up exception, at which point you

I am newbie with CRM and I was googling for how to hide and show a text field using jScript library in MS CRM (online) and found several options of using the function setVisible . I tried those options: Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get('new_fieldname').setVisible(false); Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get('new_fieldname').setVisible(false); Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_fieldname').controls.get(0).setVisible(false); But only the last one is really working.

I need to change the owner of an appointment record when creating a new appointment. I'm using a plugin for the create message and i've found this code to assign a new owner to the appointment: entity = context.PostEntityImages["PostImage"]; ...... AssignRequest request = new AssignRequest(); //request.RequestName request.Assignee = new EntityReference("systemuser", owners.ToList()[0].Id); request.Target = new EntityReference(Appointment.EntityLogicalName, entity.Id); service.Execute(request); But when I test this i get the following error: Invalid Argument: There should be only one owner

In our MS dynamics CRM project we created a mass-user upload batch. The batch reads from an excel file and does a mass upload of the users. One of the things this batch needs to set is the timezonecode. In the excel file the timezone will be written as eg "UTC+1" The code used by CRM seems to be the timezonecode SQL-server is using as can be found here . What is the cleanest way of mapping these? My ideas so far: Hardcode a conversion store Fetch the codes from CRM somehow Fetch the codes from SQL somehow Currently we just implemented our own conversion class with hard coded values. Is there a

I'm not so new in CRM 2011, but I faced with one big problem... I found some solution on net that makes some scoring/ranking system in CRM. I was completely confused when I saw star in top status bar, above ribbon buttons bar, next to username on right corner of screen.

How to call that function, what event to catch? I need this button/function be active on all pages in CRM like this one. What is id of that
