Limit Columns to view in Advanced Find result

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Hello,

we want to limit the columns an user can select in the Add Columns in Edit Columns of Advanced Find.

How can this be achieved.

Not the columns to search need to be restricted, the columns to select in Add Columns instead.

In this thread https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/117/t/66309 Alex Fagundes gives a hint how it can be achieved:

However, all fields that a user can read are avail for selection in the advanced find.  The only method to change this would be custom code in a 'plug-in'.  Then with a plug-in just about anything is possible as it is compiled code and you could filter out certain columns from being available.

My question her: For which entity I need to develop a plugin and for which message?

 

Thank You

Regards

Rolf

    Try this also:

    Go to Settings -> Customisations -> and choose the entity you want and list all the fields.

    Double click on each field in turn and you will see a drop down menu called 'Searchable'. Set this to 'No' and the field is hidden from Advanced find searches (after you publish your changes).

    Repeat this for all fields required.
