Scribe - Support for Dynamics CRM 2013 Online and On-Premise Connectors

Scribe has recently announced support for Dynamics CRM 2013 Online and On-Premise Connections.  Scribe has verified that Scribe Online is now compatible with Dynamics CRM 2011 and 2013.  For this update, all Scribe Online Agents (both On-Premise and Cloud) will be automatically upgraded to version 1.0.0.40425.                                                                                                                                                                                            Note: For existing users, Scribe Online automatically updates your Scribe Online Agent within 3 hours of the Update. During this 3-hour period, if the Agent displays as “out-of-date” on the Scribe Online Agents page, you must restart the Scribe Online Agent Service before creating or editing any Solution Instances.  For information about Scribe Online Agent updates, see Updating an Agent in the Scribe Online Help Center.

MS CRM 2011 - Manage the parent customer field of a contact

The following code set the paterent customer in contact entity. I was unable to find any documentation of this, I hope this will be helpful for you.

// Comment

//for contact entity
EntityReference myRef = null;
myRef= new EntityReference("contact", (Guid)myContact.ContactID); 
if (myRef != null) contactEntity["parentcustomerid"] = myRef; 
// Commit entity to CRMGuid 
Guid result = service.Create(contactEntity);

//for account entity
EntityReference myRef = null;
myRef= new EntityReference("account", (Guid)myContact.AccountID); 
if (myRef != null) contactEntity["parentcustomerid"] = myRef; 
// Commit entity to CRMGuid 
Guid result = service.Create(contactEntity);
