CRM 2015: I want to be able to create a role for local IT to be able to add user accounts and assign roles. Regarding the 'adding roles' portion, is it simple enough just to create a role for local IT to 'write' to 'security' roles in the'business management' tab of 'security roles' at the user level?

So for example you have role to edit Security roles and you have Read access for Accounts in your Business Units. If somebody in your Business unit has no Read access and

I am currently working with CRM 2015 SDK. I am simply trying to update a value in C# with this SDK. But for some reasons that I try to figure out, there is a trouble when I save my context .

I know the ExecuteMultipleRequest is a huge performance booster when performing batch updates from outside of CRM. What I don't know is if it is beneficial to call it from within a CRM plugin. My current understanding is that the main performance gain from using the ExecuteMultipleRequest is in the actual SOAP messaging costs.

But when called from a plugin, you're

I've a form which runs a real-time workflow. When the workflow succeeds, I need to display the status message of the workflow in a pop-up window or an alert message box. Any ideas on how I can achieve this? You can only show messages to the user from within a synchronous workflow if you cancel the workflow : When you set the status to canceled, you prevent the operation. An error message containing the text from the stop action status message will be displayed to the user with the heading Business Process Error. There is no way of showing an informational message from a succeeded workflow. As
