Project Description
The goal of this project is to provide:

A single application to launch all tools I developed until now
A fastest way to create new Tools (for me and for you)

The tool itself does not embbed any business logic, it just displays all tools in a list, manages connections to CRM organizations and provide the possibility to open these tool in a single interface. It comes with a public interface that allows any developer to write its own tool as a library. The tool reads all assemblies in its folder location that implements the public interface.

As this tool is useless without plugins, it is shipped with more than ten tools to help you configure and customize Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 and 2013 (see the list below).

To learn how to develop your own tool, read the documentation

You can support my work by making a donation (Read more).

Hi,

Can you confirm the version used?

Can you also confirm you are connected to an organization first?

We have many organizations in CRM and are trying to import solutions over many organizations. It would be great to have a multi value picklist for choosing destination organizations.

The entities grid is nicely sortable by clicking on the column headers. Too bad this sorting isn't enabled for the entity details grids on the attributes/relationships/etc tabs.
