How to have an activity appears in two custom entities?

(5) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 24
In the Dynamics 365 CRM, when an activity like Phone Call or Appointment is created in a Contact, that activity appears in the associated Account of that Contact. How can I replicate this behaviour for two custom entities (Tasks and Projects)?
 
Ex. When a Phone Call is created in a Task, that Phone Call should appear for both that Task and the associated Project.
 
Couple more things to note:
  • The Task and Project has a many-to-one or N:1 relationship (multiple Tasks can be associated to a Project).
  • The Regarding field of an activity has a many-to-one relationships to both Task and Project
  • Both Task and Project have timelines added to their forms
  • HOWEVER, unlike the Timeline in Account's form, there is no option for me to enable Related records (see screenshot of Account's Timeline in Power Apps Solutions below)
 
So my questions are:
  • When an activity like Phone Call is added to the Task, that activity is not being associated or shown in the Project. Why?
  • How can I enable related records to be shown in the timeline of Project?
Would appreciate if anyone can shed some insight on this. Thank you!

    Hi,
     
    I did somthing similair for this with Cases as we had a requirment to add a Remote Session Activity - However, Im not sure if this is the same as what you are looking to achieve with your custom Activity tables for the Account Form? If it is then when you created your custom tables did you create them with the Type set as Activity as I cant see if your custom tables are available under Activity Types from your screenshot.

    Please see attached.
