Advanced Tab

The Advanced tab includes settings for features that leverage other dynamics apps beyond base CE, such as Dynamics 365 Sales and Project Operations.  

These features are supplemental to the core Cloud Connect CE experience. Users with these app licenses must install the appropriate solutions (see Cloud Connect CE Release Notes) to begin using add-on features.

Dynamics 365 Sales

The setting control how existing configuration data is handled when using built-in Dynamics 365 Sales features (Revise Quote, Opportunity to Quote, and Quote to Order).

Setting Name

Description

Opportunity to Quote

If Yes, the Opportunity to Quote setting tells the system that configuration data should be copied to a quote when it is generated based on a configured opportunity.

Revise Quote

If Yes, the Revise Quote setting tells the system that configuration data should be copied to a quote when it is revised.

Quote to Order

If Yes, the Quote to Order setting tells the system that configuration data should be copied to an order when it is generated based on a configured quote.

Dynamics 365 Project Operations

These settings control how Experlogix integrates with CE and Project Operations, particularly in relation to the Project Schedule API. They determine whether the scheduling service is used, which user account executes scheduling calls, and how project data is written into CE. For more information on the Project Schedule API, see Microsoft's documentation.

Setting Name

Description

Enable the usage of Project Schedule APIs

If Yes, enables the Project Schedule API. Should be set to Yes for Project Operations and to No for Project Service Automation.

User with license

The user account used to call the Dynamics 365 Project Operation schedule API for processing project entities.

Scheduling entities

The list of scheduling entities, separated by a comma.

Needs commit entities

The entities as listed here and separated by a comma will be committed to CE Project Operations first, prior to persisting the rest of the data. CE Project Operations has certain expectations of entities that need to be created first.

Check data creation delay

For checking lookups between operation sets. The default value is 3 seconds, while values between 0 and 10 seconds are accepted.

Processing

This setting is applicable when a document is received, the system first checks whether the ID exists. If it exists, the request is treated as an Update; if it doesn't exist, it is treated as a Create, regardless of the action initially provided by the user.

Setting Name

Description

Update for action=create and key is present

If Yes, the pre-existing record is updated, if there is no such record, then a new record is created. If No, the following error message is displayed:

“Process COnfiguration failed. Action ‘create’ is not valid on the exisiting product (entity = product, id = 9ea….f7f), from Experlogix.Integration.MsCRM.Processor\n.”
