- Activity on custom entity?
- Posted by Robert Gaston on December 13th, 2004
I've created some entities outside of crm.
Is is possible to point an activity to an entity that is not an intrinsic
crm type? Basically, when the user clicks an activity in their queue, I
want it to open a particular url, passing the objectid and objecttype on the
url.
I see where to add objecttypecode, objecttypecodename, and objectid in the
activity schema, but I'm thinking I need to provide the url somewhere.

This feature is not provided within the current version.
This is likely to be implemented in V2.
If you want to do this now you will have to use the SDK to provide this
level of functionality.

I guess that's what I was getting at.
We are already making use of the sdk, just not for creating unusual activity
items.

Doing this could be dangerous. If you create the Activity, you may find the the
CRM pagegs don't work properly if the record isn't tied to a CRM Object
properly. I have seen problems like this with tryingt o create ACtivities with
the SDK in general where the ActivityParties were not created properly. In that
case, the Activity wasn't able to be modified by the CRM forms since there were
data dependencies it could not resolve.
