    There are demonstrations of this in the SDK samples.

    I don't know that there is a supported way to do this unfortunately.  It's pretty engrained in the application.

    You should use the RibbonDiffXml (take a look at the sdk) to add this functionality.

    1.) You may call a javascriptfunction from a webresource library and set the button enabled/disabled

    See: RuleDefinitions => EnableRules => EnableRule => CustomRule

    2.) Maybe the displayRules can help you. Here you can check the current users privileges

    See: RuleDefinitions => DisplayRules => DisplayRule => MiscellaneousPrivilegeRule

     

    Maybe this puts you in the right direction.

    We need to create custom rule for that then from customrule call javascript which returns either true or false.

    then that button can be disabled.

     

    From SDK-> get command defination form leadform-> then add your enable rule->can create add custom rule

    If you can accomplish this with a custom rule, I would say check this link out.

    Actually its not a Custom Button that I wanted to hide n show, its CRM's outof box button.

    Depending upon certain condition on an Entity I wanted to hide-n-show "Add Contact" button on the Entity Details form (Contact is having many-to-many relationship with this entity)

    Hi Ketan.

     

    I am not sure, whether you can hide a button on such a condition. Coz, i am also searching for such a solution. But you can disable/enable based on javascript function.

    You can get all the entities RibbonXML using the exportribbonxml tool provided with SDK [sdk\samplecode\cs\client\ribbon]. Open the ribbonxml corresponding to your entity, identiy the command definition corresponding to the button you want to hide. Copy this code. Now export your entity in a solution, open the customizations file and add this commanddefinition under the commanddefinitions node of your entity. Add a new enable rule with the functionality you want.

     

     

     

     

    <CommandDefinitions>

      <CommandDefinition Id="Mscrm.AddNewRecordFromSubGridStandard">
                <EnableRules>
                  <EnableRule Id="Mscrm.AppendToPrimary" />
                  <EnableRule Id="Mscrm.EntityFormIsEnabled" />
                </EnableRules>
                <DisplayRules>

                  <!-- Here I am adding my Own Display Rule -->


                  <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.Isv.AddNew" />

                  <!-- Here I am adding my Own Display Rule -->

     


                  <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.ShowForOneToManyGrids" />
                  <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.AppendToPrimary" />
                  <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.CreateSelectedEntityPermission" />
                  <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.AppendSelected" />
                  <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.HideAddNewForChildEntities" />
                </DisplayRules>
                <Actions>
                  <JavaScriptFunction FunctionName="Mscrm.GridRibbonActions.addNewFromSubGridStandard" Library="/_static/_common/scripts/RibbonActions.js">
                    <CrmParameter Value="SelectedEntityTypeCode" />
                    <CrmParameter Value="PrimaryEntityTypeCode" />
                    <CrmParameter Value="FirstPrimaryItemId" />
                    <CrmParameter Value="PrimaryControl" />
                  </JavaScriptFunction>
                </Actions>
              </CommandDefinition>

     </CommandDefinitions>

     

     This is my Rule Definitions.

     

    <RuleDefinitions>

    <TabDisplayRules />

    <DisplayRules>

               <DisplayRule Id="Mscrm.Isv.AddNew">
                  <ValueRule Field="new_type" Value="2" InvertResult="true" />
                </DisplayRule> 

    </DisplayRules>

    <EnableRules />

    </RuleDefinitions>

     

     

    Here I am trying to Hide the "Add New" Button. You can use a similar code to enable/disable. :)

    Thanks & Regards, Johninfant

    I finally got it working. I have to give different Id to CommandDefinition since if we use original CommandDefinition even though we make changes in Copied CommandDefinition, it always takes original CommandDefinition.

    Hi,

    Custom rule can be created for Ednable,Disable. There is a way to hide the button making changes to XML ‘HideCustomAction’ . This will hide the button from ribbon,but in-case if you have role based form for that entity,it wont display the button for it. It can be only hide / display. 

    Regards,

    Ranjeet

    this could help:

     

    http://dynamicscrm2011.wordpress.com/tag/enable-crm-2011-ribbon-button/

     

    Just make sure you use the Display Rules (since you are hiding), instead of the Enable Rules
