Posted on by

Hi Friends,

I have a requirement in which i want to hide all the system view which are available when i look for the record through the lookup field.

I just want the user to select only custom view not system view.

Please let me know if you have a better solution either from the c# or system.

I am working on CRM 2016 on-premise.A small help would be much appreciated.

Regards

    Hi,

    yes, you are right. But that is the responsibility of developer or admin,user will not involve it.

    Thanks for the reply Wei but what if we create a new custom view then again we have to select that view from here but we dont want to change anything.In this scenario this functionality wont work.

    Its just user can view only all the custom view not the system.

    Hi,

    IF you open up the lookup properties, if you can see the additional properties, you can unhide the view from there by select those view you wanted to show.

    Hi Shashikant,

    I think you can control these with security roles: few links:
