Hi Team,
Can anyone guide me to understand what are the differences between Enable Rules & Display Rules? (Platform is CRM 2015 or above)
And when doing any level of hide/unhide on what parameters do we go for Enable Rules or for Display rules?
Regards,
Aamir Nawaz

Finally I found a "visible" difference that still remains the same as in CRM 2011 - this is an Advanced Find feature:
On my CRM 2016 deployment I'm able to use an enable rule that can make the button disabled but still visible (as Guido Preite stated) on a window of Advanced Find.
Furthermore, it can be used there to enable a button when at least one record is selected (another "minor differences in terms of support of properties" as Aamir Nawaz stated, I guess) - when there is an item to be processed.
Basically it means that:
server side rules are evaluated before that the generate "HTLM" is pushed to the client (so you can use fields that are not present in the HTML itself)
client side rules are evaluated after that the generated "HTML" is pudhed to the client (so you must have a field on the form, maybe hidden, and included in the HTML to evaluete its value).
Hello Aamir,
can you please explain "Enable Rule runs in client side and Display rule in server side."
TIA.

Hi Aamir,
Value rules only work with enable rules. For understanding the differences between CRM2011 and CRM2013/2015 Ribbon/Command Bar, see: ribbonworkbench.uservoice.com/.../276684-differences-between-crm2011-and-crm2013-ribbon-com
For ValueRule, we need to consider the following for SubGrid:
For commands defined for subgrid for forms using the updated user experience, value rules cannot be used within display rules. Use this element within an <EnableRule> (RibbonDiffXml) to hide an element.
Thanks Guido Preite, I am aware of its difference when we talk about CRM 2011.
But i am just trying to figure out the difference when we talk about CRM 2015 and above. Based on my understanding, the only thing i could figure out was minor differences in terms of support of properties.
And that Enable Rule runs in client side and Display rule in server side.
I am just trying to figure out for my personal curiosity, if we are to add a value rule, Will we go Enable Rule or Display Rule? Considering both works the same theoretically.
starting from CRM 2013 there is no big difference, because both rules will make the button not visible.
This was not the same with CRM 2011 where an enable rule can make the button disabled but still visible.
