System Requirements:
- CRM 2011: Update Rollup 12 or newer is required on the CRM server.
NOTE: It is always a good idea to backup your CRM database and/or customizations prior to importing any solution into your CRM. If you have made certain customizations to system entities, importing a managed solution such as ClickDimensions can cause the customizations to revert to the default state. (For example, if you renamed the Account entity to "Company", importing our solution will cause the entity to revert to the name "Account".
To recover your customizations after importing our solution, follow the steps below. If you have not made changes to the Account, Contact, Lead or Marketing List entities, you can skip this:
- Prior to importing the ClickDimensions solution, export the Account, Contact, Lead and Marketing List entities. You can export them as an unmanaged solution. (Read more here about solutions.) Note that if you have not made changes to these entities you do not need to do this step.
- After importing the ClickDimensions solution, import the solution you created with the Account, Contact, Lead and Marketing List entities. When the import process is completed, publish the customizations.
