Microsoft CRM Customization secrets – second edition

by: Andrew Karasev

This article is for advanced Microsoft CRM SDK C# developers. It describes the technique of direct SQL programming, when SDK doesn't have the functionality to do the job.

Introduction. Looks like Microsoft CRM becomes more and more popular, partly because of Microsoft muscles behind it. Now it is targeted to the whole spectrum of horizontal and vertical market clientele. It is tightly integrated with other Microsoft Business Solutions products such as Microsoft Great Plains, Solomon, Navision (the last two in progress).

Here we describe the technique of creating closed activity-email using MS CRM SDK and direct SQL programming.

Imaging something like this. You need to handle incoming email before it is committed to MS Exchange database. You need to analyze if incoming email doesn't have GUID in its Subject (GUID will allow MS CRM Exchange Connector to move email to Microsoft CRM and attach it to the Contact, Account or Lead) - then you still need to lookup MS CRM in case if one of the accounts, contacts or leads has email address that matches with sender email address - then you need to create closed activity-email in MS CRM, attached to the object and placed into general queue.

How to create MS Exchange handler is outside of the scope, please see this article:

http://www.albaspectrum.com/Customizations_Whitepapers/Dexterity_SQL_VBA_Crystal/ExchangeHandlerExample.htm

Now the code below is classical MS CRM SDK and it will create activity email:

public Guid CreateEmailActivity(Guid userId, int objectType, Guid objectId, string mailFrom, CRMUser crmUser, string subject, string body) {
try {
log.Debug("Prepare for Mail Activity Creating");
// BizUser proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser bizUser = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.BizUser();
ICredentials credentials = new NetworkCredential(sysUserId, sysPassword, sysDomain);
bizUser.Url = crmDir + "BizUser.srf";
bizUser.Credentials = credentials;
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CUserAuth userAuth = bizUser.WhoAmI();
// CRMEmail proxy object
Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRMEmail email = new Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Proxy.CRMEmail();
email.Credentials = credentials;
email.Url = crmDir + "CRMEmail.srf";
// Set up the XML string for the activity
string strActivityXml = "";
strActivityXml += "";
strActivityXml += "") + "]]>";
strActivityXml += "";
strActivityXml += userId.ToString("B") + "";
strActivityXml += "";
// Set up the XML string for the activity parties
string strPartiesXml = "";
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += "" + crmUser.GetEmailAddress() + "";
strPartiesXml += "" + Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otSystemUser.ToString() + "";
strPartiesXml += ""+ crmUser.GetId().ToString("B") + "";
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ACTIVITY_PARTY_TYPE.ACTIVITY_PARTY_TO_RECIPIENT.ToString();
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += "" + mailFrom + "";
if (objectType == Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otAccount) {
strPartiesXml += "" + Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otAccount.ToString() + "";
}
else if (objectType == Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otContact) {
strPartiesXml += "" + Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otContact.ToString() + "";
}
else if (objectType == Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otLead) {
strPartiesXml += "" + Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ObjectType.otLead.ToString() + "";
}
strPartiesXml += ""+ objectId.ToString("B") + "";
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ACTIVITY_PARTY_TYPE.ACTIVITY_PARTY_SENDER.ToString();
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += "";
strPartiesXml += "";
log.Debug(strPartiesXml);
// Create the e-mail object
Guid emailId = new Guid(email.Create(userAuth, strActivityXml, strPartiesXml));
return emailId;
}
catch (System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException e) {
log.Debug("ErrorMessage: " + e.Message + " " + e.Detail.OuterXml + " Source: " + e.Source);
}
catch (Exception e) {
log.Debug(e.Message + "
\n" + e.StackTrace);
}
return new Guid();
}
Our credits to Anna Osborn (so obviously small pocket aquarium goes to her – smile!), she let us know how to close MS CRM Activity:
//creates the activity
strActivityId = oActivity.Create(userAuth, strXml, activityPartyXml);

//closes it as long as the relevant fields are complete oActivity.Close(userAuth, strActivityId, -1);
But in any case whatever you find below could help you to do whatever CRM SDK can't.
Now I would like to share the trick with you - there is no method to make this activity closed in MS CRM SDK 1.2 (if somebody knows the one - I owe you small pocket aquarium - smile!). Obviously Microsoft doesn't support if you do direct SQL programming bypassing SDK. However I would say this is not direct objects creation - this is rather flags correction. So here is what we have - this procedure will do the job and make activity closed:
public void UpdateActivityCodes(Guid emailId) {
try {
OleDbCommand command = conn.CreateCommand();
command.CommandText = "UPDATE ActivityBase SET DirectionCode = (?), StateCode = (?), PriorityCode = (?) WHERE ActivityId = (?)";
command.Prepare();
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("DirectionCode", Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.EVENT_DIRECTION.ED_INCOMING));
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("StateCode", Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.ACTIVITY_STATE.ACTS_CLOSED));
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("PriorityCode", Microsoft.Crm.Platform.Types.PRIORITY_CODE.PC_MEDIUM));
command.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("ActivityId", emailId));
log.Debug("Prepare to update activity code " + emailId.ToString("B") + " in ActivityBase");
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
catch(Exception e) {
log.Debug(e.Message + "
\n" + e.StackTrace);
}
}

Important privacy considerations when shopping for pegasus satellite tv

The Internet is fast becoming the dominant medium for business and communication, but it still resembles something of a frontier, because there is little regulation. If you are looking for pegasus satellite tv then you are doing so in an unregulated marketplace. Most efforts have relied on the Internet industry to police itself. Although there has been some notable success with self-policing, continued abuses have increased calls for government intervention. That's where our role in pre-checking pegasus satellite tv sites comes in. Our pegasus satellite tv provider is solid and reliable.

Some aspects of the Internet could undoubtedly use some regulation, but this task is not as simple as it may seem. The very nature of the Internet makes it difficult, if not impossible to regulate. However in the midst of this many pegasus satellite tv retailers survive and prosper. At the same time, the absence of regulations means that everyone who uses this essentially public network can be a target for anyone who has the technical know-how and the will to invade their privacy. Privacy was foremost in our minds when sourcing the right pegasus satellite tv retailer for you. Their link appears below.

While the threat from hackers is low for individuals, a more serious threat to personal privacy comes from unscrupulous pegasus satellite tv companies that operate websites for quick quids. Many pegasus satellite tv sites require you to register before you can use its services. Often you must provide personal information, such as your name, street address, and e-mail address. Then as you browse the site, data is collected as to which pages you visited, how long you remained on each page, the links you clicked, what terms you searched, and so on. After a number of visits to the site, a personal profile emerges. The question is, what do pegasus satellite tv site operators do with this information?

Most claim that they use it to personalize your experience on the site. For instance, if a pegasus satellite tv site learns that you are interested in pegasus satellite tv, the next time you visit the site, you might be presented with an article or advertisements for that and related products. But some pegasus satellite tv websites sell this information to marketers, which means that you may find yourself receiving unwanted catalogs from garden suppliers. Our preferred retailer does not do this.

We feel so confident that your pegasus satellite tv shopping experience will be a good one that we have built this site so that you can go straight to the prime pegasus satellite tv retailer without wasting a lot of time checking out vast numbers of very ordinary providers.
