CRM 2011 Unsupported Customizations

In CRM 2011 it’s not recommended to have unsupported customizations. But at times there is no way out of that.

Here are some unsupported customizations that I found useful.

1. If you want to disable the View Picker or say you don’t want users to select any other view in lookup

    

   

    

   document.getElementById(“customerid”).setAttribute(“disableViewPicker“, “1″);
   

    

2. To Hide search box from options

    

   document.getElementById(“customerid”).setAttribute(“disableQuickFind“, “1″); 

    

   

    

3. Hide Complete Lookup Browser (Hilighted Part)

   
   

    

   document.getElementById(“customerid”).setAttribute(“_lookupbrowse“, “1″);Â
   

    

4. Hide New Button on Lookup Form

    

   

    

   document.getElementById(“customerid”)._behaviours[0].AddParam(“ShowNewButton“,0);
   

    

5. Changing Default lookup type in “Look for: ” drop down (Here setting to Contact “entity type code = 2” instead of Account)

document.getElementById(“customerid”).setAttribute(“defaulttype“, “2”);

1. Setting particular lookup type in “Look for: ” drop down (Here setting to Contact “entity type code = 2”)

    

   document.getElementById(“parentcustomerid”).setAttribute(“lookuptypes“, “2”);

    

2. Setting Lookup Type Name

   
   document.getElementById(“parentcustomerid”).setAttribute(“lookuptypenames“, “contact:2”);

    

3. Setting Icon to be displayed in Lookup box (after selecting)

   
   document.getElementById(“parentcustomerid”).setAttribute(“lookuptypeIcons“, “/_imgs/ico_16_2.gif”);
