Requirement
We need to limit how many records a Dynamics 365 (D365) view returns. Since there’s no out-of-box (OOB) way to do this, we introduced a custom column dsl_topn. This column holds the “Top N” value we want. A plugin then intercepts the FetchXML query and injects the <fetch top="N"/> attribute, removing any conflicting paging attributes in the process.
Below is a straightforward approach to merge two Word documents in Dynamics 365—without resorting to third-party paid connectors or extensions. By leveraging a custom Action, a Power Automate flow, and a plugin with OpenXML (embedded via ILRepack), you can seamlessly combine Word files and store the merged result, all in one out-of-the-box solution.
Working with HTML web resources in Dynamics 365 is a common way to extend forms, capture user input, and interact directly with Microsoft Dataverse data. In this tutorial, we will show how to retrieve a record ID from URL parameters and then use OData calls to fetch(Read) and Create / Update / Delete records.
Dynamics 365 Quick View forms only support a single column.
In certain scenarios, you may want to present a lookup field on a form as if it were read-only, while still allowing scripts to programmatically set or update its value behind the scenes. Here are two methods to achieve this without disabling the field entirely, thus preserving your ability to set its value via code:
Background
In Power Pages (formerly known as Power Apps portals), Entity Lists often present clickable hyperlinks on the first column. While this is convenient for navigation to detailed records, sometimes you might want to display this information as plain text instead. For example, you may have a “Case Number” or “Grievance Number” column that you want visible, but not clickable.
Displaying Power BI reports to the public on Power Pages or other web platforms can provide significant value for businesses and organizations aiming to share insights with external users. However, the implementation comes with several important factors to consider, especially for anonymous users.
RE: How to set a Notification / Message on Portal Pages
Reference: 1
There is no OOB feature to set a Notification / Message on Portal Pages.
We can create a custom Notification entity to create your notifications
in the Portal Header Web Template (after the profile navigation menu), can add a FetchXML to retrieve this records and show a bell icon (or any custom icon)
This guide explains how to pass parameters from a Dynamics 365 main form to an HTML web resource by enabling a built-in feature and retrieving the parameters dynamically in your HTML.
When I installed Microsoft Dynamics 365 Report Authoring Extension, got error: Action Microsoft.crm.setup.shared.analyzerbase+collectaction failed.
I followed below solution and resolved the issue.
In Dynamics 365 Sales, users may encounter the error message: "You can't create new opportunities or edit this one as the 'Lead qualification opportunity form' is currently not available. Please contact your admin." This issue can arise when the current custom model-driven app does not include the "Lead qualification opportunity form" required during the lead qualification process. Here are step-by-step tips to resolve this error and ensure a smooth lead to opportunity transition:
Purpose of the Plugin
The plugin aims to streamline the user management process by automatically assigning a default web role to every new contact created in Dynamics 365. This is particularly useful in environments where new contacts need immediate and predefined access to certain parts of the system, ensuring they have the necessary permissions from the start.
Scenario
Imagine you need a report to display records based on a casemanager field that might contain null values or specific identifiers. The report should show records where the casemanager field is either unset (null) or matches any of the identifiers selected by the user from a multi-value parameter.
The Dataverse auditing feature is designed to meet the external and internal auditing, compliance, security, and governance policies that are common to many enterprises. Dataverse auditing logs changes that are made to customer records in an environment with a Dataverse database. Dataverse auditing also logs user access through an app or through the SDK in an environment.
If you're looking to integrate PayPal's Payflow Pro into your payment system, you can start with a free test account.

This comprehensive guide provides a detailed approach to automate the creation of many-to-many (N:N) relationship records in Dynamics 365 using a custom plugin and a JavaScript action. The solution streamlines the association of multiple records through a straightforward interface, making it indispensable in scenarios requiring batch processing or integration tasks.
In Dynamics 365, subgrids are an essential feature that provide users with the ability to interact with related data directly from a form. In some scenarios, you may need to enhance the default functionality of subgrid buttons, such as the "Add Existing" or custom action buttons, by applying specific views or filters to control the data shown to users. This guide will walk you through the process of dynamically applying views or filters to buttons on a subgrid, providing an improved user experience.
userSettings.roles) In SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), customizing the date format is essential for improving the readability of reports. SSRS provides the Format() function, which allows for flexible formatting of date fields to meet different reporting requirements.
In Microsoft Dynamics 365, the customerid lookup field can reference multiple entity types, typically Accounts and Contacts. To simplify the user interface or meet specific business needs, you may want to restrict this lookup to show only one type. Below is a straightforward approach using JavaScript to configure the customerid lookup to display either only Accounts or only Contacts.
When customizing forms in Microsoft Dynamics 365 CRM, JavaScript provides powerful capabilities to control data processing and user interactions. Key among these capabilities are the client-side events onSave and addOnPostSave. Each plays a vital role in managing the lifecycle of form data submissions. This article delves into how these JavaScript events can be used to fine-tune the behavior of Dynamics forms.
When dealing with online payments and recurring transactions, it can be challenging to understand all the different identifiers, tokens, and steps involved in completing a payment. Below, we'll break down the key elements of PayPal's payment process, specifically focusing on Authorization IDs, Capture IDs, and Tokens, explaining their roles, uses, and differences.
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) can sometimes become an extra hurdle for users who prefer simplified access to their accounts. Here's how you can disable MFA in Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft 365 Admin Center, allowing users to avoid any additional authentications beyond their password.
If you need to access the Classic Advanced Settings in Dynamics 365, you can do so easily by using a direct URL. This is useful when you want to manage settings in the classic interface.
In Dynamics 365 Sales, managing tax calculations for Quotes and Orders can sometimes be less intuitive than expected. It's essential to understand how taxes are applied at both the Quote/Order Product level and the overall Quote/Order level, especially when discounts are involved. Below, we'll break down a few key points that can help clarify the system's behavior and implications for your customizations.
In global data management, accurately capturing the start of the local day is crucial but challenging with standard functions like UTCNow() or Now(). These functions return the current UTC timestamp, which doesn’t always align with the local date. For instance, if UTCNow() shows "10-10 2:50 AM," this might actually be "10-9 7:50 PM" in Pacific Time, meaning the local date is still "10-9."
An activity party represents a person or group associated with an activity. An activity can have multiple activity parties.
System administrators may initially find that they are the only users who can view in-app notifications. When other users attempt to access the notification center, they might encounter issues such as the notifications not being visible or the notification center continuously loading without displaying any content.
