Working with Saved Searches [edit]
You can use the Advanced Search option to search for existing entities. You can save these searches and pin them as Favorites for easy access. Saved searches can be opened for easy access to the search results.
Performing a Search to Save[edit]
1. Click the Advanced button at the right of the search toolbar My Dashboard page. The Advanced Search page opens.
2. In the Please select Entities to Search field, enter or select appropriate entities from the list and type the keywords to search in the Refine Search here field.
3. Select from each of the following options:
- Metadata: the search is performed in the metadata of the selected Agreement.
- Full Text: the search is performed within the contents of the document of the selected Agreement.
4. After selecting either of the above options, click the Search button. The list of search results is displayed.
5. To refine your search further, navigate to the Search For field. Click Select Field and select an option from the list displayed. The number in the bracket indicates the number of items available containing that search term. You can select multiple options. For example, selecting the field Status displays the number of Agreements that have the Status as Draft, Approved, Terminated, Superseded and so on. If you select the status as Draft (select the checkbox next to Draft), all Agreements in Draft state are displayed.
6. A list of these Agreements is displayed as the search result in a tabular format. Enhance your search using wild cards as follows:

• Type...(space)... multiple search terms with a space in between. It displays the existing items which include the search terms.
Saving a Search[edit]
If you have the search criteria defined and need to use it repeatedly, it is recommended to save the search. To configure Saved Search, we need some Data mapping which includes CRM Account and Opportunity ID (which is 18 digit of alphanumeric reference value). Hence, when defining the mapping of a CRM Opportunity with Contract Request, create a field/Attribute in that Contract Request that will hold the CRM Opportunity Id. You can similarly create an Attribute for the Account ID reference. After creating these required mappings, you can use the Saved Search. To save the search: 1. Click the Save icon. This opens the Save Search window. Set the parameters for this Saved Search.
2. Type the name for the search. Use a name that you can easily associate with this search.
3. Click Yes to make it a global search. This allows all users of the selected Security Groups and Organization units to view it. Select No to save this search locally so that it will only be visible to the person creating it.
Note: Only the Administrator can save global searches.
4. Specify the Advanced Parameters as follows:
Note:
• A search defined as a Smart Link cannot be set as a Dashboard tile.
• For a global search, the Administrator needs to create a Security Group and give access to the specific users. Only those users can see that Saved Search in the list and add it as a Dashboard tile.
• A search defined as a Smart Link cannot be set as a Dashboard tile.
• For a global search, the Administrator needs to create a Security Group and give access to the specific users. Only those users can see that Saved Search in the list and add it as a Dashboard tile.
Updating Saved Search Configuration [edit]
With this feature, the CRM Administrator can map any of the entity level or parent level Attribute for executing Saved Search provided the Saved Search is created in ICI as per the Attribute configured in CRM.
If you do not configure the Attribute in CRM, the Saved Search is executed based on the CRM record System ID. The Contracts or Contract Requests will be retrieved from ICI to CRM provided the saved search in ICI is configured.
Mapping Data between ICI and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Connector[edit]
Use the Configuration tile in the ICI application to specify the mapping details between CRM and ICI. Data Mapping involves the following two primary tasks:
- Creating Masterdata Contract Type
- Creating Masterdata records for mapping entities
Support for different Attribute Types[edit]
Multi-Select Attribute
- This enables in creating an Agreement in CRM that contains multi-select Attributes.
- When you select multiple attributes in CRM for the Contract, it must be mapped with the multi-select fields in ICI.
Lookup Attribute
- This enables creating an Agreement in CRM that contains Lookup Attributes.
- When you select lookup attributes in CRM for the Contract, it must be mapped with the appropriate Masterdata record in ICI.
File Attachment
- This enables creating an Agreement in CRM with attachments added in the Notes section.
- When you add an attachment to an Agreement created in CRM, it must be mapped with the appropriate Association added to the Agreement in ICI. The files in the Notes section are mapped to the File Selection Attribute in Agreement.
Creating a Masterdata Contract Type[edit]

Creating Masterdata for Mapping the Entities[edit]
You can create a Masterdata record for the Contract Type Masterdata that you created earlier. This helps in mapping the entities between CRM and ICI. ICI allows mapping this data from any CRM entity such as Opportunity, Account, or Quote to a Contract Request or Agreement by creating the Masterdata record in ICI. To create the Masterdata record:
1. Click Configuration on My Dashboard. The Configuration page opens.
2. Click Masterdata on the Configuration page. The Masterdata option is shown.
3. Click Create Masterdata. The Create Masterdata page opens.
4. Complete the information in the following sections:
- Masterdata Details
- Attributes
5. Click Next at the end of Masterdata Details section to go to the Attributes section and complete creating the Masterdata record. Masterdata Details
6. Select the Category from the drop-down list.

- Masterdata Code: Each Masterdata you create is assigned a unique ID. It is auto-generated when you create the Masterdata.
- Name: Type the name of the Masterdata record you are creating for mapping with ICI.
- Ensure that the name you give to the Masterdata record is unique and can be identified easily. For example, you can use the following name for mapping: CRM_Acct_Agr_AccountName. This example clearly states that you are creating a mapping for an Agreement with a CRM Account (CRM Acct) entity and the Attribute that you are mapping is the Account Name on Agreement.
- Client Name: This helps in defining the mapping with the external system. For example, add CRM in the Client Name field to define the mapping between ICI and CRM.
- ICI Entity Name: Type the ICI Agreement Contract Type for which you are creating this mapping.
- ICI Attribute Name: Type the ICI Attribute Name of the Contract Type Masterdata that you created earlier where the CRM data will appear.
- Client Entity Name: This is the CRM side entity name (technical name) for which you are defining the mapping between ICI and CRM.
- Client Attribute Name: Type the CRM side Attribute name (technical name). It is the CRM side Attribute name (technical name) for the client entity name that you mapped.
- Data Flow Type: This defines the direction of mapping for the data flow. You can select from any of the following data flow types:
- Client to ICI: Select this option if you want the data mapping from CRM to ICI. If you create the Agreement from CRM, the respective CRM entity value will populate in the ICI attribute. When you want to create or update the data from CRM to ICI, ensure that you select the flow as Client to ICI.
- ICI to Client: Select this option if you want the data mapping to happen from ICI to CRM.
- Both: Select this option if you want to use the same mapping for data flow from ICI to CRM and CRM to ICI.
- Enable Sync: Select Yes if you want the data mapping to synchronize the data from CRM to ICI. This option works only if you select the data flow as Client to ICI.
- Contract Events: It is used to synchronize data from ICI to CRM. You can enter the events that happen in the Contract lifecycle such as Created, Approved, and Executed.
11. Click Save to save the Masterdata record and enable mapping between ICI and CRM.

Single-click creation of ICI Contracts and Contract Requests from within Microsoft Dynamics CRM[edit]
ICI integration with Microsoft Dynamics CRM now enables creating an ICI Contract through Microsoft Dynamics CRM with a single-click. Till now, when creating an ICI Contract in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, the user was required to go through the entire New Contract creation wizard even if all the form values were pre-filled based on the existing CRM data. With this enhancement, you can now configure and enable the Quick Create button on the Microsoft Dynamics CRM interface to create an ICI Contract without having to navigate through multiple form pages. A similar single-click creation capability has also been added to the ICI Contract Request in Microsoft Dynamics CRM integration.
Support for synchronizing additional Attributes in ICI[edit]
ICI integration with Microsoft Dynamics CRM is now enhanced with support for the following entities, provided the appropriate mapping configuration is present in ICI: *Multi-select and Lookup Attributes: When a user is required to select multiple or lookup values for a particular field in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, they are mapped and synchronized to the corresponding multi-select or lookup fields in ICI. *File Attachment: Now, user has the ability of synchronizing the documents (in all ICI supported file formats) from the Notes section of Microsoft Dynamics CRM to ICI, on creation of a Contract from Microsoft Dynamics CRM. This can be achieved by creating appropriate mapping to the available file type attributes in ICI.
Increased flexibility to configure ICI Contract and Contract Request lists within Microsoft Dynamics CRM entities [edit]
With this release, Microsoft Dynamics CRM administrator can configure the list of Contracts and Contract Requests displayed in Microsoft Dynamics CRM entities like Opportunity, Accounts etc., on the basis of other custom attributes, for example, Region, Country etc., rather than the Microsoft Dynamics CRM system ID. If a specific criterion is not provided, the list of Contracts or Contract Requests will be filtered on the basis of Microsoft Dynamics CRM system ID by default.
Configuration for allowing user to start or stop redirecting to ICI iframe in CRM[edit]
With this release, CRM administrator can now allow the user to stay on the Agreement Details page in CRM after creating the Agreement. This enables the user in avoiding to navigate through the CRM user interface to access the Agreement that was created. The CRM administrator can configure the Allow Redirect field on the Configuration page in CRM.
Enabling/disabling entity configurations [edit]
To enable/disable entity configurations:
1. Click the Settings drop-down and navigate to Solutions.
2. Click ICISolution on All Solutions page. The ICI Solution Components page opens in a new window.
3. Click Configuration from the left navigation pane. The ICI Setting page opens.
4. Click the + plus icon next to “Entity Configurations” section. The expanded section is displayed.
The following changes have been introduced to the configuration:
You can now disable the “New Contract”, “New Request” buttons by unselecting the checkbox under “Entity Configurations” on the “ICI Setting” page. This ensures that the “New Contract” and “New Request” buttons are not displayed on the “Opportunity” page.
You can now update labels for the “New Contract” and “New Request” buttons. In case you want to enable them then the checkbox next to them under “Active” column should be selected. This ensures that the “New Contract and “New Request” buttons are displayed with the label you have provided, for the Account / any other entity page.
For example, you can rename the New Contract button to “New AC Contract” then the button will start appearing with the updated label.
You can add new configurations for any other entity by clicking “Click to add entity configuration” under “Entity Configurations” on “ICI Setting” page.
Adding/deleting entity configurations[edit]
To add entity configuration for a new entity:
1. Select the entity from the “Select Entity” dropdown list. For example, select “Order”. The Order ID is selected by default.
2. Enter a value in CT Saved Search URI. For example, CRM_OS_Contract. You can add the value for CR Saved Search URI.
By default, the Id attribute of that entity is selected for the CT Saved Search and CR Saved Search fields. You can change the attribute as per your requirement. Ensure that the attribute you are setting here is a unique identifier for the entity records.
Note: Prior to ICI version 7.16, saved searches were to be configured as a Json string. Post upgrade to 7.16, any saved search configurations need to be updated in the Entity Configurations section.
3. Select or unselect the checkboxes next to “New Contract”, “New Request” options to enable or disable the buttons on the “Order” page, respectively.
Note: You can remove any of the entities by clicking “Delete” next to that entity.
