    Hi Nausher,

    I received your tweet...

    In order for crm to call a plugin. The plugin need to be registered within crm. Once the plugin is registered, you can register plugin steps. A plugin step is a combination of an entity and amessage name on which the plugin dll reacts (executes your custom code). Per plugin step you can specify in what execution stage the plugin step reacts (pre or post) and whether the plugin step should react synchronously (the plugin kicks in immediately)or asynchronous (for longer running actions.

    Jason already pointed out some good articles

    I hope this helps you, otherwise send me a dm on twitter with your questions.

    Cheers,

    Bas

    Every event or request in dynamics CRM trigger an "Event execution pipeline"  this pipeline mainly contain 4 steps :

    1. Pre-Event :
      1. Pre-validation : where you can inject a pre-validation plugins. (Stage 10)
      2. Pre-operation : where you can inject a pre-operation plugins. (Stage 20)
    2. Main-Event : this is the stage of the main operation (Stage 30 ) where the system execute the request (the core operation), as a developer or a consultant, we can't add any thing to this stage ( at least when we work under the Microsoft  recommendation)
    3. Post-Event : Here we can inject post-operation plugins (Stage 40 ), at this stage the main operation completed and succeeded.
