MscrmControls.FieldControls.SimpleLookupControl failed to render

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 350

Hi, using UCI while using a Quick Create form for Appointment we cannot use the required attendees field because it always displays the message "Error loading control". The error detail is as follows:

Custom Control with Id: MscrmControls.FieldControls.SimpleLookupControl failed to render; Message: this._lookupParameter.getTargetEntityNames is not a function

* We are using Dynamics 365 OnPremise  9.0.13.11

* The problem occurs with any Internet Browser

* There are no customizations behind the field

I would appreciate any advise.

Thanks.

    Thank you LMad for pointing this out, this seems to be a glitch in our documentation.

    We'll get the page updated.

    Hello,

    I worked with MS and they found a fix.

    You need to export your solution (just put the appointment entity) then edit solution.xml

    Find your lookup and add (the number in LookupType is the id of the entiry for searching)

    <LookupStyle>multi</LookupStyle>

                  <LookupTypes>

                 <LookupType id="9110a5c9-6375-4c53-93a6-3cf8361293d1">1</LookupType>

                 <LookupType id="9110a5c9-6375-4c53-93a6-3cf8361293d1">2</LookupType>

                 <LookupType id="9110a5c9-6375-4c53-93a6-3cf8361293d1">4</LookupType>

                 <LookupType id="9110a5c9-6375-4c53-93a6-3cf8361293d1">8</LookupType>

                 <LookupType id="9110a5c9-6375-4c53-93a6-3cf8361293d1">4000</LookupType>

                </LookupTypes>

    And import you solution.

    I hope it will help you.

    Henry,

    I found this page for New Sales HUB App for Version 9.1 On-Premise Release of Microsoft Dynamics 365

    docs.microsoft.com/.../365salesappdownloads

    They speak of the 9.1 (date of the post : 09/04/2020), i'm confused about Q2.

    But the installation of the new sales hub failled.

    Hello all -

    The v9.1 version of Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement on-premises is around the corner and is planned for Q2 of 2021.
    With a few limitations that will be documented, it should contain an updated version of Unified Interface that will be close to the capabilities that were released in the October 2020 online version (2020 Release Wave 2). 

    Henry

    Hi,

    I haven't raised any Microsoft ticket for this yet..

    But we have a new environment where we dnt have any of our customisation deployed.

    In that environment when I tried in uci..the required attendees controls working fine without any issue.

    I tried removing all the customisation we did on appointment entity,but still no luck on the lower environment.

    Even I tried importing the control from the new environment to our old environment ,still no luck.

    Looks like the issue is from the oob web resource.

    You can also try if you have any new environment.

    If you have already got any reply from MS please do share.Thanks in advance.

    I'm using On-Prem V 9 .

    Have to open MS ticket .

    The problem is both Required Attendee and Optional Attendee are Party list .

    Optional Attendee field is working well without any issue.

    So , why only Required Attendee having issue . That looks wired.

    Thanks for the immediate response.

    Hello, 

    I still have the problem. 

    No solution from MS

    It's only work with the classic interface.
