Mobile compatible development - Microsoft Dynamics CRM - MoCA_Tip#1

After the release MoCA, I was interested in exploring the functionalities available and I am happy with the available features.

Now, we are going to see some tips based on my previous experience with MoCA. I will try to provide some more tips in upcoming blog posts,

Behavior of hidden tabs

• ·        CRM web forms ignore hidden tabs when they are loaded in Mobile. Therefore, if you have any logic based on hidden section fields then those logics are going to break.
• ·        Make sure the tab is visible on form. Then hide the same using JavaScript, this will make the tab and fields available on form.

Error with field's customized event – Random errors on specific forms

• ·        This error is common on the forms, which contains multiple tabs/sections/fields, and the errors are random and not specific to any functionality.
• ·        This is because, we have limits on the count of controls available on mobile form and these are configurable in orgsettings

The default and max allowed items for a mobile form is as follows,

Setting	Default Value	Max Value
TabletClientMaxFields	75	500
TabletClientMaxLists	10	50
TabletClientMaxTabs	5	50
