systemform With Id __ Does Not Exist

Posted on by Community Member

I have found a few posts referencing this error but none with the exact symptoms I experienced so I'm wondering if anyone has seen this behavior and might know the cause.

I am on CRM 2015 (7.1) online. 

Last week, I modified a custom entity which is a very simple entity with no scripting or anything outside basic CRM configuration.  I added a lookup field to relate the entity to our Accounts entity and then I was no longer able to open the form to add or view records.  The log file offered had the error systemform With Id __ Does Not Exist.

Today, I created a new entity to generate auto-numbers.  I created the entity, added a "Next Num" field and then went to add a record after publishing customizations.  I was again faced with the same error.  I tried turning on the legacy from rendering and the new form was then able to open, but each time I tried turning that off, the form would sit alternating between "loading business logic" and requesting data from CRM".  I don't think anything in this form should have been impacted by the legacy form rendering since it was brand new, no scripting, nothing fancy and only one extra field aside from what CRM automatically creates.

I was able to resolve both issues by creating a solution with only the affected entity, exported the solution, opened the customization file, found the systemform ID for the main form and replaced the ID with the ID of the form the error was looking for, and then reimported the solution.

Does anyone know what would cause this discrepancy between the form ID in the solution and the form ID expected when opening the form?

Thanks!

    The simplest solution can be:

    • find another user, who can open a record in affected entity
    • as him to send you a link to that record (through CRM menu)
    • open that record in your browser

    The link contains formID , so you will open the record with correct form and CRM will save that form as your last used.

    Simple

    This CRM bug is neverending :-(

    Do the following: REMOVE ALL Internet Cache Files and Local Things. I Went Blind Folded and Cleared the Cache Manually and it WORKED!!:

    1. Go to Folder: C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Internet Explorer (Or Change to your user name folder)

    2. Delete any cache folder, local cached data. These do not get deleted by the Delete using the Internet Explorer Options menu to Delete Browsing History. You MUST Delete the Local Cache

    3. Close All Internet Explorer Browser Windows

    4. Find ANY Locally Cached Data Files in these Folders:

    brndlog.bak
    brndlog.txt
    DomainSuggestions
    IECompatData
    imagestore
    Indexed DB
    MSIMGSIZ.DAT
    Pinned Sites
    Recovery
    TabRoaming
    Tiles
    Tracking Protection
    UrlBlockManager
    VersionManager

    ****BE SMART and CAREFUL *** Your Problem is in one of these above folders and look for data files that someone may be storing strange cookies or data for re-visiting their site (in this case dynamics crm)

    **BY NOW: You should not see the error again (systemform With Id = GUID_OF_YOUR_FORM Does Not Exist)

    When You See This Error or Similar (Guid Varies Per Your Environment):

    Problem: systemform With Id = 1df14c99-6d3e-49b2-9f61-7c9870794d01 Does Not Exist

    Have you deleted the form that your entity was using?If yes, just clean the session or change the browser.

    HI,

    I've seen this error before, but like you said, not with the same circumstances. You typically see it when you create a form, view a record with that form, then delete it. Then next time you open the record it tries to use the same form you had last time, but closing your browsers and starting a new session clears it up. I have no idea why you'd see that error just from creating a new form and adding a field to it. Hope somebody else has an idea.

    Good luck!
