Something New! Something Scary!

There is a new feature to CRM 4.0 that is only available with the On-Line version. “Bulk Deletion Wizard�. This is an often-requested feature that is requested in my many implementations. It is nice to see it on the On-line version and I can only hope that they extend it to the On-premise version as well.
There is a lot of power here and as we all know from Spidy “With great power comes great responsibility�. The ability to delete records is something I tend to take away from the common CRM user; however, with CRM On-line’s space limitations I can see this being relaxed some. The reason I tend to take away delete for the common CRM user is that it is VERY PERMENANT, and will sometimes delete more than you thought would be deleted.
Here are a couple of screen shots of the wizard





The Microsoft CRM Live Team blog has an in depth write-up on the Bulk Deletion capabilities of CRM On-line, it can be found here

About the author

I work for a consulting firm in Dublin Ohio called Affiliated Resource Group. For the last five years I have been spearheading our Microsoft Dynamics CRM practice. I have a deep appreciation for the Microsoft CRM platform and I am very excited about it. You might even describe me as a Microsoft CRM Advocate. I have many battle scars from my experience with the product and I’m constantly being asked questions about CRM and how-to-do something in it. Hence, this BLOG is to help disseminate that knowledge and information to everyone. As of last year I was posting links to many other blogs to help spread the knowledge, but now with the community.dynamics.com doing that for me, I will be following that practice unless a really juicy article catches my eye. Many people have asked where my post are for the first half of 2010, my company had me posting to another blog and maintain two was near impossible. I am now down to just this blog. So good luck and I hope that this blog may help in some way. If you have suggestions or questions, please email me them.
