Microsoft Dynamics CRM Solutions
Solutions in Microsoft Dynamics CRM package together a set
of custom components that work with one another to provide functionality that
some or all users must have. In other words, a Solution is a way to organize
customizations that you make to the system to meet a specific set of requirements.
It can be export and import from the system for testing or to use in production
environment.
Default Solution
When you create an Organization in Microsoft Dynamics CRM,
system creates a Solution named Default Solution that contains all the
components in the system. You can modify the components of the system in the
Default Solution directly. You can also export or import Default Solution into
another Microsoft Dynamics CRM Organization.
It is important to note that You are not able to export the
Default Solution as a Managed solution. Anything that you add or modify in your
Solution will update the Default Solution.
Types of Solution
There are two types of Solution in the Microsoft Dynamics
CRM Managed and Unmanaged. During the export process, you can determine whether
a solution is managed or unmanaged.
Managed Solution
These Solutions are used to distribute customizations. We
make Managed Solutions only during the export process. If you import Managed
Solution, no changes are made to the system components. Components of a managed
solution could be locked down by using managed properties to prevent any
changes that might interrupt the functionality of the solution. When you delete
a managed solution it deletes all the components that are imported with that
solution, and leaves the system the same as before the solution is imported.
Unmanaged Solution
These Solutions are used for the internal changes that are
being deployed from one system to another. You cannot uninstall unmanaged
solution but you can delete it. The deletion of unmanaged solution cannot
delete any component from the system, regardless of whether the Solution is
created in this system or the solution is imported.
