    Hello,

    I was having one customization of hiding 'Add Existing' Contact ribbon button on 'new_training' Entity.

    I did that using CRM Context Rule.

    But now i am having a problem, when i click 'Add Existing' Contact ribbon button on other than the 'new_training' entity, it shows me Account data than Contacts.

    Please help me in this.

    I modified RibbonDiff xml to below for Contact Entity.

    <RibbonDiffXml>
        <CustomActions />
        <Templates>
          <RibbonTemplates Id="Mscrm.Templates"></RibbonTemplates>
        </Templates>
        <CommandDefinitions>
          <CommandDefinition Id="Mscrm.AddExistingRecordFromSubGridAssociated">
            <EnableRules>
              <EnableRule Id="Mscrm.AppendToPrimary" />
              <EnableRule Id="Mscrm.EntityFormIsEnabled" />
            </EnableRules>
            <DisplayRules>
              <DisplayRule Id="new.contact.DisplayRule4.DisplayRule" />
              <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.AddExisting" />
              <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.AppendSelected" />
              <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.AppendToPrimary" />
              <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.ShowForManyToManyGrids" />
            </DisplayRules>
            <Actions>
              <JavaScriptFunction FunctionName="Mscrm.GridRibbonActions.addExistingFromSubGridAssociated" Library="/_static/_common/scripts/RibbonActions.js">
                <CrmParameter Value="PrimaryEntityTypeCode" />
                <CrmParameter Value="SelectedControl" />
              </JavaScriptFunction>
            </Actions>

        <RuleDefinitions>
          <TabDisplayRules />
          <DisplayRules>
            <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.AddExisting">

            </DisplayRule>
            <DisplayRule Id="new.contact.DisplayRule4.DisplayRule">
              <FormEntityContextRule EntityName="new_training" Default="true" InvertResult="true" />

    Hi,

    If you want to hide the 'Add Existing' button for a specific sub grid - you simply need to make the relationship lookup attribute mandatory. You don't need to customise the ribbon xml.

    You need to go into the entity customisations for your solution -> Entities -> Contact -> Attributes -> Locate the attribute that is a lookup to the new_Training entity.

    Open this attribute and mark the 'Requirement Level' as 'Business Required' 

    It just occurred to me though - is this a 1:N or N:N relationship?
