| Here comes a requested add-in for ouputting all your Microsoft CRM Customizations to a Word document.
This add-in can be used for various scenarios,
Documentation
- Document your work after it's finished, removing any possible mismatch from the specifications.
- Understand the work of others when taking ownership of a CRM instance without any documentations provided (Using the filters to export only Custom Entities, Attributes and Relationships)
- Presents all your ISV Configuration changes in one place, that usually are hard to get a good overview of.
|
 |
Daily work routines
- Development Aid, use a complete export document as a reference.
By searching in the document for a specific entity you can quickly see available picklist values, implemented javascript, published attributes on form and attributes schema name including data type restrictions.
- Architect Aid, Cut & Paste attribute, forms or relationships Tables to your specifications, and extend them with new values or describe changes.
|
The Add-in supports multi-language CRM installations, you select the prefered output language, and the base language will be used as fallback. You can also define to only export custom entities, attributes and relationsships making the document easier to read.

First of all, I would like to thank for all the positive response regarding CRM Configuration Manager, always a joy to hear that the product works :)
Here comes a new release of CRM Configuration Manager that contains some improvements and a new Extension Framework for creating Add-ins. The first extension interface available is for output handling. You can now implement a new document type handler for exporting. Could be used for various documentation formats, for example an Visio document handler, that would create a data model of the exported entities and their relationships.
A SDK will be released in the near future, but until then you can contact me for guidance.
Improvements and bugfixes included in version 1.50,
- Improved 'Export only Modifications' function, now also checking modifications at Entity Forms and Relationships
- Not all system entities was listed in the Entity view.
Thanks to Daniel Jansen for reporting the issue.
- Implemented Add-in framework for output document formats.
- Revised user interface to improve usability
- Minor bug fixes
