    Hi Perttis,

    inside Customer Portal package find Microsoft.Xrm -> bin -> CrmSvcUtil.

    Inside CustomerPortal folder find CrmSvcUtil windows command script.

    Run utility to generate classes for all entities (including your custom entity) for your CRM instance.

    Pay attention to a command format - it's different for Online or OnPremise.

    For CRM 2011 Online use deviceregistration tool to generate and register DeviceID and Device Password.

    More about CrmSvcUtil here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff681561.aspx

    You can use generated class for your custom entity inside Customer Portal solution.

    Modify existing code or create your own page to edit/display data from CRM.

    Use existing code as a sample.

    Cheers,

    Thank You Alena!

    I hope one day the portal is really integrated and end user friendly, as it seems a little complicated nowadays...
