Hi,
I want to add a custom action menu item to an Entity which only displayed on Associated views of Entity (Entity Grid displayed inside Related Entity Form) insted of main CRM Entity listing.

When i add a Button or Custom/Action menu item on any entity Grid, its also displayed on main CRM form Entity listing Grid.

Is it there any option?

Hi

The easiest but unsupported solution for this requirement is

1. Create ISV.Config menu item.

2. Hide the menu item button on the main entity listing in unsupported way as suggested by Muhammad.

If you want to go on with the supported solution, we can achieve with workaround (placing button in the menu item instead of entity grid)

1. Create Static/Dynamic menu button in the form (instead of entity), say the near the Action button.

2. Attach a action to the button obtain the selected records in the associated grid using iFrame.document.getElementById('crmGrid').InnerGrid.SelectedRecords

Hi, try adding your button or action menu item to grid from CRM Form instead of ISV.
So its only available from inside Form.
