mapping CRM fields to outlook contact fields
Posted by _Kas_ on May 26th, 2006


hi,

As most of you probably know, one's CRM contacts created in CRM are linked
to that persons contacts in outlook.

Right now the field "parent account" in CRM is linked to "parent account"
(in the tab all fields) on a contact person form in outlook. However there is
also a field in outlook contactperson form called " company name" that remais
emptiy (this field is located in te general tab in the outlook contact form.
i would like to map the field parent account from CRM to BOTH parent account
and company name field in outlook contacts

A) is this possible?
B) if so, how do i do this?

thanks in advance!
Kas

The only way to do this is by writing your own Exchange event sink that
monitors for crm contacts and fills in the CompanyName with the Parent
Account info.
