RE: Add customeraddress to contact with CrmServiceClient

Hi Ulrich,

Why are you using a wrapper class?

The code which James provided should give you the functionality that you are looking for, but I think you were looking to do this for customer address.

Entity address = new Entity("customeraddress");

Guid addressId = Guid.NewGuid();

address["customeraddressid"] = addressId;

address["parentid"] = contactGuid;

address["addresstypecode"] = new OptionSetValue(2);

address["addressnumber"] = ; // Use 3 or above

address["line1"] = "Address Line 1";

address["line2"] = "Address Line 2";

address["line3"] = "Address Line 3";

address["city"] = "City";

address["stateorprovidence"] = "State/Province";

address["postalcode"] = "Postal Code";

context.AddObject(project);

context.SaveChanges();

return addressId;

Hope this helps.

RE: Add customeraddress to contact with CrmServiceClient

Hello James,

thanks for your help. I am using the CrmClientService form the assembly Microsoft.Xrm.Tooling.

I am using the following code

Dictionary<string, CrmDataTypeWrapper> AddressData = new Dictionary<string, CrmDataTypeWrapper>();

AddressData.Add("addresstypecode", new CrmDataTypeWrapper(AddressTypeCode, CrmFieldType.Picklist));

AddressData.Add("parentid", new CrmDataTypeWrapper(new EntityReference("contact", contact.contactid), CrmFieldType.Lookup));

service.CreateNewRecord("customeraddress", AddressData);

I am getting an invalid cast error.

Can you please take a look what i am doing wrong ?

Thanks

Ulrich

Late Bound:

If using the 2 address fields on the contact form. Replace address1 with address2 for second address.

Entity contact = new Entity("contact"); contact["contactid"] = contactGuid; contact["address1_line1"] = ; contact["address1_line2"] = ; contact["address1_line3"] = ; contact["address1_city"] = ; contact["address1_stateorprovidence"] = ; contact["address1_postalcode"] = ; crmservice.update(contact);

If you are creating a new address in the customeraddress table and linking to the contact via a relationship. Use the same style code I provided but create and new entity as customeraddress and change it to the attributes you need. Then you will need to do a new EntityReference to set the contact its related too.
