Before you can delete fields from entities, you must remove all dependencies on Trillium fields. Locating dependencies can be difficult, especially if the field was used as part of a search criteria or other somewhat obscure uses.
If you are unable to remove fields after following the two suggestions in the Note, a third utility available in the Deployment Manager can assist you in locating field dependencies.
To locate a dependency
-
In the CRM Dependency message, note the Graphical User Interface Definition (GUID) displayed for the item that has a dependency.
-
On the machine on which you installed Trillium Quality for Dynamics, launch the Deployment Manager from the Start menu (Trillium Software > Trillium Quality for Dynamics n.n.n. Right-click Deployment Manager and select Run as administrator). The Deployment Manager window opens.
-
Click the Utilities tab.
-
In the Dependencies section, click Load Types. The CRM types menu is loaded.
-
Select the CRM type for which you want to see dependencies.
-
Enter the GUID for the specific item you are searching for.
-
Click Check Dependency. The results are listed in the Output window.
