New emails auto saving by default?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 135
Hi there,
When a user creates an email in dynamics, should it save instantly by default without any customisation?
If the answer to this is no, then I would like to know how I can track down what is triggering the email save after all customisation has been switched off, including any JS, workflows and plugins
If the answer is yes, then why is the email not being saved when created by a user in a new clean trial environment.
Both environments have the same auto save settings.

Regards,
J

    Hi,

    No it does not save automatically. If you observe in out of box if any user tried to go back to any other page while composing any new email the system will prompt with two options save and exit or discard changes .

    In your case if the email is getting saved automatically, run Fiddler and collect traces and then check which request is being triggered for email record save.

    Have you checked the autosave setting that applies to all forms under (Advanced Settings) Settings->Administration (option is on the first Tab)?

    Thanks Soumen and LA for your input, it turns out there were 2 statements buried among the functions in one of the libraries. Commenting these out resolved the issue.

    Xrm.Page.data.save(true).then(checkEmailType, errorCallback);

    setTimeout(function(){Xrm.Page.data.save(true).then(checkEmailType, errorCallback);}, 500);
