Tip #1218: Suppress headers and footers in portals

$

0

Dynamics 365 Portals, based on Bootstrap, are very flexible when it comes to the web site and individual page layout. To create consistent look and feel the Website record defines header and footer templates.

And the footer looks like this:

I was working on a site where I didn’t need a footer at all so I cleared Footer Template field. And I got this:

SNAGHTML1daeb057

What the?!

Yes, folks, a default template is rendered, whatever that is. To suppress header and/or footer, create a blank Web Template, something like

{% comment %}
  This template has been deliberately left blank
{% endcomment %}

and select that template on your Website record. The results are stunning. I don’t even have a screenshot because it’s, well, blank.

Note: if you disable header, it’ll be up to you to render the search box, sign-in/out control, and a language selector elsewhere, because that’s what the default header renders.

What are the Differences Between Microsoft Flows vs. Workflows?

Microsoft Dynamics 365/CRM Help at Ledgeview Partners

Although Microsoft Flows and Workflows in Microsoft Dynamics 365/CRM fall into similar realms in terms of why admins would want to use them, they are different tools that can be used to increase efficiencies for organizations in different ways.

The functionalities within these tools are similar, but there are distinct reasons to use one over the other to meet various organizational processes and strategies.


The differences are broken down in these simple ways …

First, Workflows are limited to just Microsoft Dynamics 365/CRM, whereas Microsoft Flows can span across multiple Microsoft applications and other applications (MailChimp, SurveyMonkey, WordPress, etc.)making Flows more of a comprehensive tool.

Both Microsoft Flows and Workflows work with on-premise and online Microsoft Dynamics systems.

Workflows are available within any Microsoft Dynamics 365/CRM environment.  Microsoft Flow comes within Office 365 and there are additional plans that can be added based on the volume of use.

Workflows are configurable to provide automation within Microsoft Dynamics 365/CRM. Workflows are run based on triggers that occur to records within Microsoft Dynamics 365/CRM (Insert, Update, Delete, etc.).

There are a lot of actions a Workflow can do once triggered: Update existing records, create a new record, change the state of a record, send an email, trigger another Workflow, apply if/then logic, etc.

Microsoft Flows have a library of pre-built templates for you to start with or you can create a Flow from scratch.

Within the Flow, you can either start with a trigger (The triggers are limited to pre-defined triggers of the application you are sourcing) or you can schedule the flow to run on a defined schedule.  Then you have pre-defined actions based on the application you are targeting.


How to decide if you should use a Workflow or a Microsoft Flow?.

If your data, trigger, and action are all within Dynamics 365/CRM, a Workflow is the way to go.

If you need to run an action based on a schedule (not a trigger) or you need to interact with another application outside of Dynamics 365/CRM give Microsoft Flow a try.


To learn more about Workflows and Flows, watch our latest webinar: “Microsoft Flows vs. Workflows”, as we break down the tools by definition, usability, and functionality.

Implementing SmartConnect: Prerequisites

$
0
0

eOne SolutionsThis post is part of the series on Implementing SmartConnect, an integration tool from eOne Solutions, which can take data from any source and integrate it into Microsoft Dynamics GP (and other systems such as Microsoft Dynamics CRM or Sales Force amongst others). It has a drag and drop interface to make creating integrations quick and easy for all users rather than just developers (as many integration tools target).

SmartConnect has certain prerequisites which need top be met before implementing SmartConnect; these are outlines below.

Microsoft windows components:

  • Windows Domain is required for integrating with eConnect for Microsoft Dynamics GP.
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.1 or greater installed on all servers or clients on which SmartConnect will be run. The SmartConnect installer will install it if it does not present although it can be installed manually prior to starting the installation.
  • Microsoft IIS 8.0+ is recommended for machines running either the SmartConnect web service or SmartConnect WCF Rest services. and must be set up to allow the running of .NET applications. For WCF Rest installations the server must also be set up to enable WCF HTTP Activation.
  • Windows Identity Foundation is required to connect to a Microsoft CRM Internet facing deployment, or Online system.
  • SOAP SDK is required (http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/details.aspx?id=10747) for installations using the legacy excel templates downloaded from www.eonesolutions.com.

Windows user permissions:

  • For 64-bit machines Read / Write access to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Wow6432Node \ eOneSolutions \ SmartConnect registry keys
  • For 32-bit machines Read / Write access to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ eOneSolutions \ SmartConnect registry keys
  • Access to the SmartConnect installation (standard install path is C:\Program Files\eOneSolutions\SmartConnect\ or C:\Program Files (x86)\eOneSolutions\SmartConnect\ if 32-bit)

User requirements:

  • The Windows Domain service account used for eConnect needs to be able to log into the Microsoft SQL Server that contains the Microsoft Dynamics GP databases using windows authentication.
  • SmartConnect Web Service controls integrations coming into SmartConnect from Excel, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, and third party applications that use the web service to connect. This user will need to be set up within SmartConnect after installation have been completed. This user may be the same user as the eConnect user.
  • SmartConnect Windows Service is used by scheduled maps to run integrations. This user must also be set up within SmartConnect after installation has been completed and will be used as the default user for all scheduled integrations (unless a user has been specified on the scheduled map) and as such should have security to access/run all SmartConnect integrations.
  • Salesforce Web Service is used to connect Salesforce real time data source maps to SmartConnect. This web service must be installed externally so it can be accessed by Salesforce. The internal user the web service uses to connect to SmartConnect should be restricted to only access required by Salesforce real time data source maps so as to reduce security issues associated with externally facing web services.

Microsoft Dynamics GP requirements:

  • eConnect needs to be manually installed on each server or client with SmartConnect installed.

With all of the prerequisites met, we can install the SmartConnect application.

After an upgrade of a Dynamics 365 instance from v8.2 to v9, many users reported an issue where the Dynamics 365 was not loading, or it was loading the pages very slowly. The users were trying to access Dynamics 365 on web client.

The solution to this problem was to clear the browser cache of the affected users’ machines. Once the cache was cleared the users were able to use Dynamics 365 and load the web pages as normal.

Making Tax Digital Now Available in Dynamics GP 2016 and 2018

$
0
0

Microsoft Dynamics GPMicrosoft’s Jodi Christiansen has, on the Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP blog, announced the release of the January hotfix which includes the Making Tax Digital (MTD) updates required for VAT submissions to HMRC from April.

The Microsoft Docs site has been updated with setup instructions; I need to get it downloaded and installed to confirm the functionality, as all of the setup is around the VAT 100 and not VAT Daybook. Clients with more complex VAT often need VAT Daybook which allows them to define which tax codes appear in which boxes on the VAT Return. We’ve previously been assured by Microsoft that the MTD update would include both VAT 100 and VAT Daybook so I need to check that this is in fact the case.

The hotfix can be downloaded from CustomerSource (login required):

  1. Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016
  2. Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018

The MTD changes are only available for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016 and 2018; applying the hotfix will update you to the latest version of the R2 release of these versions. If you’re on a prior version you will need to either upgrade to 2016 or 2018 or source an alternative way of submitting to MTD, such as ISC Software’s Making Tax Digital add-in.
