Microsoft Dynamics CRM provides the OrgDBOrgSettings tool that gives administrators the ability to implement specific updates that were previously reserved for registry implementations. This article discusses the steps to extract the tool and update the settings.

Resolution

To use the OrgDBOrgSettings Tool, follow these steps:
 

  1. The tool is updated with each Update Rollup release, and can be downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center. The latest Update Rollup information and links to the Microsoft Download Center can be found in the following Microsoft website:

    Note To use the OrgDBOrgSettingsTool on a Windows client, you have to install Windows Identity Foundation 3.5. Also you need to match the version of the tool provided within the rollup you have installed.

  2. When you download CRM-Tools-KB#######-ENU-amd64.exe, extract the files to any folder location, such as to the C:\OrgDBSettingsTool folder.

  3. Open the OrgDBOrgSettingsTool folder.

  4. Open the OrgDBOrgSettingsTool.exe.config file for editing.

  5. Update the URLs to relate to your environment (see the samples for Online or OnPremise configuration file in the more information section) and save the changes.

  6. Open a command prompt.

  7. Run the following command and locate the OrgDbOrgSettings folder:

    Cd C:\OrgDbOrgSettings 
  8. You can use the following syntax to either retrieve or update the current settings:

    To update Microsoft.Crm.SE.OrgDBOrgSettingsTool.exe Update [/u] <OrgName> <SettingName> <Value> To retrieve Microsoft.Crm.SE.OrgDbOrgSettingsTool.exe Retrieve [/u]<OrgName> Note the /u symbol specifies that <Orgname> is the unique name. Without this option, <OrgName> is assumed to be the friendlyname.

    The options available to be retrieved or updated are as follows:

N/A

DoNotCorrelateForwardedEmailsAsReplies

False

Boolean

If this setting is set to TRUE, Server-Side Sync will not consider forwarded emails as replies. If the value is FALSE, Server-Side Sync will consider forwarded emails as replies

Example scenario: A Dynamics user received an email A with message ID <msg-A>. The user decides to forward this email to another user, thus generating a new email B with message ID <msg-B>. This new email message will have an In-Reply-To header pointing back to email message A. Based solely on this information, Server-Side Sync would consider email message B as a reply to email message A, even though it's a forwarded email. To tell replies apart from forwarded messages, we can look at the recipients of email B. If the sender of email A is a recipient of email B, then we can say it's a reply. Otherwise, it's a forwarded email. This OrgDbOrgSettings setting enables this additional comparison for the In-Reply-To correlation criteria.

NOTE: This setting disables conversationIndex correlation as conversationIndex is incompatible with the feature. Smart matching and tracking token correlation will continue to function and have priority over this setting as their purpose is to correlate emails based on other data (recipients, subject words, tracking token in subject). For this reason we recommend disabling smart matching (OFF by default) and tracking token as they could interfere with this setting in certain cases.
