Hello SeanDonovan,
Troubleshooting the Missing "Gift Type" Field in Dynamics 365 Fundraising and Engagement
Understanding the Issue:
The disappearance of the "Gift Type" field after an upgrade can be due to several reasons
- Customization Overwrites:
If custom modifications were made to the "Add Gift" form or the underlying entities, the upgrade might have overwritten these changes.
- Solution Configuration Issues:
Incorrect configurations or missing components in the solution might affect the form's layout and field visibility.
- Security Roles and Permissions:
Insufficient permissions for the user role could restrict access to certain fields or forms.
- Browser Cache and Caching Issues:
Clearing the browser cache and hard refreshing the page can sometimes resolve unexpected UI issues.
Troubleshooting Steps
- Check Customizations
Review any custom forms, scripts, or plugins related to the "Add Gift" form.
Ensure that the custom modifications are compatible with the latest version of the solution.
Consider reverting to a known good configuration or reapplying customizations after the upgrade.
- Verify Solution Components
Double-check the solution components to ensure that all necessary components are installed and activated.
Look for any missing or corrupted components that might be affecting the form's layout.
- Review Security Roles and Permissions
Ensure that the user role has the necessary permissions to access and modify the "Gift Type" field.
Check if any security roles have been inadvertently modified or removed during the upgrade.
- Clear Browser Cache and Hard Refresh
Clear your browser's cache and cookies.
Try opening the "Add Gift" form in a different browser or in InPrivate/Incognito mode.
- Consult Microsoft Support
If the above steps don't resolve the issue, consider contacting Microsoft Support for further assistance. They can provide specific guidance based on your organization's setup and the nature of the problem.
If you have access to the solution's source code or configuration files, you can also inspect the customizations and look for any errors or inconsistencies that might be causing the issue.
By following these steps and considering the potential causes, you should be able to identify and resolve the problem with the missing "Gift Type" field.
