I changed some of the values of items in an option set to make them easier to work with in an integration and now I am getting this error in one of my workflows. I don't really understand why though because that field does not get set in the workflow.
"The value of 'fieldname' on record type 'opportunity' is outside the valid range."
How to modify mapping for Contract Line to Contract Line (contractdetail) when Contract is Renewed or Copied
Hello,
I have added a new field to the Contract Line (contractdetail) entity that should be filled in only on the initial contract for a customer (the contract that is created when a product is purchased). When I Copy or Renew a Contract in CRM, the value for this field gets copied or mapped to the new Contract Lines.
For other entities, I would simply modify the mapping for the relationship so that this particular field is not mapped and therefore not copied to the new record. I cannot find a relationship between Contract Line and Contract Line in this case however, so I cannot modify the mapping.
Can anyone suggest a way to accomplish this objective? That is, to not copy the value of this field to the new Contract Line (contractdetail) record when a Contract is Copied or Renewed?

CRM for Outlook 2010 Rollup 15 - failing on some machines
The recent update for the CRM plugin is failing on 50% of our computers. The computers that are failing had the update auto-install 2 weekends ago, and the ones that work had it install this weekend.
A reinstall of the CRM plugin, the SQL CE 4 sp1, and the Windows sign-on feature doesn't work. All version numbers match on all computers.
On the failing machines, the Configuration Manager won't start and gives the error "Not Found". When starting Outlook, it continuously crashes until the plugin is disabled.
On the working machines, using the same roaming profile, it starts slowly, but perfectly fine. It reliably fails on the failing machines for all users.
Any thoughts on where to start?

Unable to retrieve values from ExecuteMultiple Request.
I have used ExecuteMultiple Request for Create previously was able to find the result from childNode by using below code
for (var i = 0; i < (data.getElementsByTagName("a:KeyValuePairOfstringanyType").length); i++) {
if (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE 9") > -1) {
if (data.getElementsByTagName("b:key")[i].text == "id") {
_createdRecordGUIDs.push(data.getElementsByTagName("b:value")[i].text);
}
}
else {
if (data.getElementsByTagName("b:key")[i].textContent == "id") {
_createdRecordGUIDs.push(data.getElementsByTagName("b:value")[i].textContent);
}
}
}
But when I use the retrieve request I was not able to get responses correctly in ChildNodes its making me difficult to get the values from the response .

App Store Issue
Anyone had any experience with the CRM App Store? I am having several issues after installing the main AppStore app in my test environment. I have tried to use the "Contact Us" button to report these issues and I get an error. I have basically given up trying to use it. It even fails trying to un-install the App Store App itself.
Also, it will not let me install any of the Apps in another organization. Once you download and try one, you can't install again. In my opinion App Store is not ready for implementation in my production environment.

Does accepting or declining appointments in Outlook affect CRM?
We are using the outlook plugin to synch outlook to on-premise CRM. After poking around I'm under the impression that CRM does not keep track of whether or not someone accepted or declined a meeting. I can decline a meeting, and it will be synched into my calendar from CRM and show up as if I accepted it. This is confusing some of our users, who are declining meetings and then seeing them show up anyway. It's also creating some problems with booking service appointments, because CRM thinks the user is busy during a particular time and doesn't want to schedule a service appointment, when in reality the user is free.
Are there any recommended ways of dealing with this?
On the flip side, optional attendees that accepted don't show up in the service calendar and can get double-booked through CRM. We've had to write a plugin that moves all optionals to required for every appointment because double-booking is a much bigger issue, but if there was a way to see who actually accepted or declined the meeting then I could solve both problems at once.
