Embedding a View from a parent entity to a child Entity in Microsoft Dynamics CRM

Posted on by lawix10 330

I have a requirement to display a view on on form from the parent entity in Microsoft dynamics.

Sub grid wont be able to achieve this purpose.

So for example A contact has a parent Account , And the Account has many orders 

On the contact form I want to display a view called Company Orders i.e the Order that the Account has made and not the contact.

Simply on the account form i can have a sub grid called company account, now i want that sub-grid to appear as a view on the contact form

Will appreciate any suggestion on this , as am thinking towards JavaScript.

    Hello,

    I believe you have some kind of relationships between your contact and accounts. I'm not sure if this feature is deprecated or not but it worth to look at - blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/.../deep-queries-for-subgrids

    Thanks this worked but what if you want to show all orders for different accounts, assuming the contact has 4 accounts and you want to show each accounts orders on the form , this works perfectly when the is one account

    Hello,

    I believe you can make it without coding. Try to do following:

    1. Create a quick view form for parent entity and put subgrid you want to show on it and publish it.

    2. Add a quick view to child entity form.
