I have the requirement to prioritise the records based on three fields in the view to be displayed in dashboard. Could you please suggest any possible solution for that?

What is the role of the fields like TimeZoneRuleVersionNumber, UTCConversionTimeZoneCode, VersionNumber?

    Hello,

    I appreciate your response.

    I have one requirement in which I need to sort records based on time zone of the account and three other fields in the view. Could you please suggest how can I get time zone information of account(can not use geocoding) and how can I sort the records based on 4 fields as in view, I believe I cannot use javascript.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Based on my research, the explanation for TimeZoneRuleVersionNumber is that "The definition of a recurrence pattern of how local time is converted to/from Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). This includes information about Daylight Savings Time (DST) versus Standard Time. Time zone rules can change over time, thus a time zone can have multiple rules from a historic point of view, but can have only one rule that is current and in effect." (For more information, you could take a look at blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/.../time-zones-in-microsoft-dynamics-crm-4-0)

    The explanation for UTCConversionTimeZoneCode is that "Time zone code that was in use when the record was created."

    The explanation for VersionNumber is that "This column is used mainly for concurrency support. The VERSIONNUMBER field is a unique value that gets incremented as records are updated – it can be very useful."

    Hope it makes sense.

    BR,
