Error when qualifying Lead into Opportunity | D365 Sales

There could be many reasons and most of it could be found when you perform an online search, but none of those suggestions fixed my issue. When I was qualifying the Lead into an Opportunity, it is showing the following error:

OrganizationServiceFault

And that is it. No other details about the error. No error log, not description of the error, no error code. Nothing!

Resolution

My user didn't have system administrator, but a custom role was assigned to the user. I took some help from my technical team who did a little bit of digging and came across this below message.

Entered Microsoft.Dynamics.SCMExtended.Plugins.Plugins.LeadPrimaryContactPostCreate.Execute(), Correlation Id: 021c0dc2-3e1e-46e5-81c0-b1524ae09ed2, Initiating User: e7925424-1da4-ed11-aad1-002248a13b63

Exception: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault]: Principal user (Id=xxxx5424-xxxx-ed11-xxxx-002248a1xxxx, type=8, roleCount=4, privilegeCount=1064, accessMode=0, MetadataCachePrivilegesCount=9751, businessUnitId=0b2c4b59-0e31-ee11-bdf4-000d3aba3d29), is missing prvReadSolution privilege (Id=b64e92c8-5d2a-4052-a026-1b73eff9cebf) on OTC=7100 for entity 'solution' (LocalizedName='Solution').

I provided a Read privilege to Solution table under; relevant Security Role > Customization > Solution, and it worked.

Hope it helps!

D365 CE Preview Feature (Collaboration and Co-authoring)

One of the most common ask from our customers is, does the app block one user from accessing or making changes to a record if another user has opened the record on their screen?

While this is not quite like restraining a user from updating a record because of multiple users accessing it, this feature does allow you to see the other folks that are collaborating on the same record.

You’ll need to enable this in your environment to take advantage of this feature.

• Open https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com
• Select the environment where you want to enable the functionality.
• Click on Settings on the command bar (located on the top of the screen).
• Expand the Product section and select Features.

• Scroll down to Collaboration section on the left side of the screen.
• Turn on 'Show other people when they're using the same form'.
• Now when 2 or more users access the same form, you'll see the co-presence indicator showing all the users. It is very similar to what we see on Microsoft 365 Apps (Word, Excel, etc.).
• This is only enabled for Account, Contact, Opportunity and Case forms during preview.

Here I would also highlight 2 other features that you can enable.

• You can also see you can initiate a Teams meeting directly from appointments. For that flip the switch 'End users can add and join Teams meetings from appointments in model-driven app' under the Collaboration section.
• There is also co-authoring for model-driven apps where you can see the users making changes to forms, views or dashboards using the power apps maker portal. With coauthoring you can see who is working on the same app at the same time, and you can see their applied changes in real-time.

How to enable modern advanced find in model-driven apps: Dynamics 365 CE (CRM)

I recently came across this new feature to enable modern advanced find in model-driven apps. Thought to share with you all.

Note: When you enable the feature, the advanced find button that you usually see on the bar top right will be gone. There will be changes in the way you access and modify personal views. If you're ready to enable this for your organization, keep reading forward.

Now the question is how to access modern advanced find?

Access modern advanced find in Dynamics 365 CE (CRM)

To access, you need to click on the global search box and below you will find this option "Search for rows in a table using advanced filters".

Click this and you will see a flyout option from the right where you can select the entity (table). Click Continue and you'll have the option to edit filters.

Now you ask, how to manage personal views? Click on the View chevron icon. This will dropdown a list of views (both system and personal) configured. Personal views are shown with a person icon. To create, set default or delete personal views, click on Manage and share views.
