The counting mechanism varies depending on the type of license being used. We differentiate here between two types of licenses &ndash; the Normal licenses and the TeamMember licenses. Below &nbsp;are the two different license types and a description of how the count works for each. You will also find a description on where to find information about your counted licenses.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: justify;"></span><span style="color: #0077b3;"><span style="font-size: 24px;">❶ </span><span style="font-size: 18px;">Normal licenses</span></span><span style="font-size: 18px;">&nbsp;</span><br /> <span style="text-align: justify;">For the required licenses, all users that are activated and have as Access Mode &ldquo;Read-Write&rdquo; in Dynamics 365, are counted.</span><span style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp; </span><span style="text-align: justify;">Users with &ldquo;Administrative&rdquo; as Access Mode are not counted.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;">There is the possibility to count only users with a security role for licensing. <strong>Important:</strong> We are counting user licensing assigned to the user directly or via team membership. To activate this feature the only thing you need to do is to create a new settingsKey for AutoMerge called &ldquo;CountUsersWithSecurityRolesOnly&rdquo; with value &ldquo;true&rdquo; as you can see in the figure below.

This feature is still considered BETA and is used at own risk! </strong></span></p> <p><strong>Overview</strong> </p> <p>Starting with AE version 2017.26, AE is offering a new feature, allowing you to remove the email body text from within CRM and replace it with a text-only and line break conserving representation of the former email body. The complete email body content is moved to an azure blob storage and streamed into CRM on accessing the email.</p> <p>CRM Timeline and CRM Activity overview will per default only show the shortened text to allow for more information in less space.&nbsp; </p> <p><strong>Why?</strong></p> <p> Emails are often consisting of mostly HTML formatting information. Inlcuding header, footer and maybe an embedded company logo, the content of an EMPTY email can be up to 30 kilobytes in size. In most companies, an email conversation usually consists of several replies and each reply will replicate the full HTML content of the previous emails, adding those 30 kilobytes AGAIN on every answer you write and possibly the same sized formatting information from the recipient of the email. </p> <p>Asuming the above, a conversation, that contains an email being answered 4 times is generating a total overhead of 550kb. Still not much, but it adds up.</p> <p>If you have 100.000 emails in your system and only half of them would be part of a conversation as sketched above, those emails add up to 10.000 conversations at 5 emails, occupying up to 5 Gb of space in the ActivityPointerBase table without containing any information yet. Also the actual email text is being replicated in each answer, growing the size even further. Not to mention that nearly all of the one-direction emails will contain a certain amount of HTML information on their own.</p> <p>Remember, as of Q2 2019, the maximum table size of the WHOLE CRM database (excluding attachments) is 10 GB without additional cost. </p> <p><strong>How?</strong></p> <p> </p> <p>AttachmentExtractor is inspecting each email in CRM and looks for known seperators of emails. If any is found, the email is cut and then all HTML tags except linebreaks are removed from the email body. The original body is stored in an AzureBlobStorage and the plaintext representation of the email body is left in CRM. When you are opening an email, a plugin will retrieve the unchanged emailbody from the AzureBlobStorage and replace the stripped down version with the full content.</p> <p><strong>What is not&nbsp; supported?</strong></p> <p>AttachmentExtractor preserves both, the original modified by and modified on, therefore not all emails might be processed.</p> <ul> <li>The email must habe a valid state/status combination<br /> (e.g. you cannot have a completed (state) draft (status) email, as CRM does not support this combination<br /> NOTE! As email state/status code pairs can be customized, AttachmentExtractor will only process emails, where those are still defined in CRM! </li> <li>All activityparties of the email (from, to, cc, bcc) must be resolved to an existing entity in CRM</li> <li>All activityparties of the email (from, to, cc, bcc) must have the "allow email" property set to allow.</li> <li>Alternative email body storage options are NOT supported (due to accesstime) (Only AzureBlobStorage)</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>10209Recap: eXtreme365 and User Group Summit in Amsterdamhttps://www.mscrm-addons.com/Blog/PostId/10202/recap-extreme365-and-user-group-summit-in-amsterdam*Features / News*,*General*Wed, 03 Apr 2019 13:25:06 GMT<p style="text-align: justify;">An awesome week in the country of bikes, cheese, clogs, Heineken ....&nbsp; ended.

For example, there is an update: after the update Dynamics 365 will work as usual, but not our services - they will stop. Therefore we provide the heartbeat service.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">The heartbeat service is verifying every service available in the WatchedConfigurations registry key. It runs every 5 minutes and verifies each service is in &ldquo;Running&rdquo; state.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Not running services are checked for 20 times every&nbsp; 5 minutes. If the service has still not been restarted after those 100 minutes, the heartbeat service will check and try to restart this service every 50 minutes for a total of 24 hours monitoring time of a particular service.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">If a service still has failed to start after those 24 hours, the heartbeat service will stop trying to restart this service.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Any service with the &ldquo;AlwaysRestartService&ldquo; flag set will never be removed from the watched configurations, regardless of its state.&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13px;"><span style="background-color: #fcfcfc; text-align: justify;"><strong>That&rsquo;s it!</strong></span><span style="background-color: #fcfcfc; text-align: justify;"><strong>&nbsp;</strong>We appreciate your feedback!
