but I am not sure how to implement some workaroun explained in above link, Or may be it is very old article, any one has latest trick to do so?

Regards,

Ashish

    Hi,

    You can manage(add, edit, delete) your Custom Activity Entities using AppJetty's Calendar 365. You can also check functionality at AppSource.

    I think it is not possible in the last version too. In previous versions I am sure.

    The reason is Dynamics calendar reads only some entities derived from Activity, i.e. Appointment,  and it is able to read only a specific date field of these entities. So, because it is not customizable , it is not possible extend it to other custom Activity entities.

    Regards

    Hi everyone,

    I have the same problem, I need to show a new customized activity in the calendar. In the latest version of Dynamics365 is this point changed?

    Thanks.

    Hi Ashish,

    You can't really have a custom entity showing in the standard Dynamics 365 Calendar (at least in a supported way). The only other option is to use a custom calendar control similar to the advice given here:

    community.dynamics.com/.../164488

    You could build a customer Dynamics 365 Calendar control similar to this one:

    mscrm.guru/.../dynamic-calendar

    Alternatively you can build your own as a web resource embedded in Dynamics.

    All the above options would require customisation of various levels.

    Hope this helps! If you found my response helpful, please mark "yes" to confirm it helped you.
