Dynamics NAV to CRM integration

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to make a connexion between NAV 2017 and CRM 2016.

Here's what I did so far:

  • updated NAV 2017 CU1 to CU4
  • Imported the solution : DynamicsNAVIntegrationSolution.zip in our CRM
  • Configured the solution with the correct path to our NAV server (/dynamicsnav100/WebClient)
  • Created a non-interactive user in CRM with Dynamics NAV Integration Administrator privileges.

After all of that, I still have the error: The system is unable to connect to Microsoft Dynamics CRM - Detailed description: Unable to login to Dynamics CRM in NAV when I try to test the connnexion.

I also tried to make the connexion using the assisted setup in NAV, and also give the non-interactive user in CRM admin rights, but nothing seems to work.

Do you have any idea why the integration is not working?

Thanks,

Johann

    Hi,

    We did find a solution with the help of a microsoft consultant. Here's what he told us that solved the issue: 

    "It is very important that you also make NAV Object update from CU4, not only it has to be deployed the client and server platform stack but also a typical activity of code compare and merge is required in order to have CRM Integration working appropriately with the new assemblies.

     

    If you cannot perform a full compare and merge of all objects – as per best practice simply filter in the Object Designer, all the NAV Objects that have a ‘CRM’ substring in their Name with a filter like *@crm*. This will roughly cover all of the objects that might potentially be in need to be changed / merged.

    You can suggest below blog article to your partner for this.

    Hope it'll help.

    I have the exact same issue. Same setup works fine in NAV 2016, but 2017 CU4 is not able to make a connection. Anyone any idea?

    In this release 15601 there is a missing row in the *.zip solution. Find solution.xml and add the row with the GUID to it

    EG.

    <RootComponent type="29" id="{GUID}" />
