[CRM Online] Creating an entity link in a dialog resolves to the wrong url. RRS feed

    Hi,

    I'm creating a dialog on the account entity in CRM Online which creates an appointment and shows the newly created appointment's link in the dialog. Whenever I start the dialog, it creates the appointment, and shows the link. If I copy the link into a new browser window, it shows me the created appointment. If I click the link however, the account record is opened again.

    I think this is a bug in the way CRM tries to save and restore your previous page. Does anybody know a workaround for this problem?

    Thanks,

    Maarten van Sambeek

    Hi,

    I've been in contact with CRM support, and this issue will be fixed in an upcoming release. When this release is due, I don't know.

    I did manage to find a workaround using a custom workflow activity. This activity receives the URL as it is generated by CRM and rewrites it in the following way:

    <SERVERNAME>/main.aspx?etc=<ENTITY TYPE CODE>&id=<ID OF THE ENTITY>&pagetype=entityrecord&histKey=<RANDOM NUMBER>&newWindow=true

    It then returns the rewrited URL.

    With kind regards,

    Maarten van Sambeek
