  • Integrations: In-line versus Queue/Batch Based
    I love web services. They make it so that one system can send and receive data from some completely different system from anywhere over the web. Data gets updated, end users can see the latest and greatest data essentially instantaneously. With CRM plugins you can have in-line...
  • Pictures inside CRM Emails
    One of my biggest issues with CRM emails, versus an Outlook email, is how difficult it can be to tailor up your emails that you want to send out. Getting a good looking email sent out of CRM is about as complex as writing a static web page. ...
  • Teams in CRM
    I've been asked a handful of times what Teams are in CRM and when it would be appropriate to use them. I couldn't find all that much documentation around when a Team should be used, just how to set up and reference Teams. So, this is my take...
  • Alternative Option to Disabled Field
    Disabling fields has been a great way to lock down information within MSCRM. The one issue that I run into with it is that users comment that a disabled field is so "washed out" that it becomes difficult to read.

  • Windows 7 available to all October 22
    If you haven't seen all the media that Microsoft is putting out around Windows 7, I'm telling you about it now. I've been using Windows 7 for a little while now and it is great, head and shoulders better than Vista. If you are on a Vista machine,...
  • Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 Adapter for Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0
    This week Microsoft released their integration adapter for Dynamics CRM and GP. This is now Microsoft's third attempt at integrating their own applications.

    For anyone who used their first integration solution with BizTalk server in CRM v1.2, my hat goes off to you. It was a...
  • Sure, anyone can Install MSCRM but...
    I've come across a number of, let's call them, not so stellar implementations and helped turn them around for the better. Some of the more interesting implementations I've come across are when no outside help is sought, even though everyone in the company knows full well that no one...
