Nav Items (CRM – menu entries)

General Area Additional fetches

Default fetch

Please note: Before you can use the tool, at least one entity has to be checked and the SmartBar Server Config has to be saved once. Nav Items (CRM – menu entries) This area manages the navigation items (menu items in CRM). The list includes the html-IDs of all menu items for which SmartBar is configured. For example, the list-entry “navQuotes” represents the entity “quote”. To add, modify or delete existing entries, use the buttons on the bottom:

Please note: With one click on these buttons, the changes are performed without a warning window. However, they are not saved until the button “Save” in the “general area” is pressed.

SmartBar for MS CRM 2015/2016

Installation & User Guide

Default fetch In this area the default-fetch of the selected navigation-entry is shown. It counts all records which are directly related with the calling entity. It is not possible to delete or edit the default-fetch. But you can disable it by checking the “Don’t use Default Fetch”-checkbox.

Additional fetches These fetches count all records which are not directly related to the entity. To add, edit or delete the fetches, use the buttons next to the “additional fetches”. Opens a blank screen to add a new fetch to the selected entry. Use the text area under “Fetch-XML” to place the new fetch. In the text field below “Fetch-Type” fill in the entitytypecodes (unique number of the entity) of the entities for which the fetch should be used. If you don’t insert a number, the fetch will be executed for all possible entities. To add the fetch to the list click on the “ok”-button. Opens a selected fetch in a new window in order to modify it.

Deletes any selected fetch. Wrong fetches will be ignored! In the following example the navigation-entry “navQuotes” (html-name for quotes) receives a new fetch. The fetch will count all quotes which are related to a contact, and the calling account. If the field “Fetch-Type” was blank, the fetch would be executed for all possible quote-menu items (quote is available in account, contact, opportunity etc.). But due to the fact that the text field includes “1” (entity-type-code for account) the fetch will be executed only for the quote-navigation entry in the account menu.
