Microsoft Dynamics CRM – Advanced Find in Global Nav –Wouldn’t that be nice?

Greg Olsen, 10 July 2014

I have submitted a request into Microsoft Connect to allow a well-used CRM feature, the Advanced Find, to be made available on the Global Navigation Bar.

If you have been using CRM for a number of years or used earlier versions of CRM you would be familiar accessing the Advanced Find reasonably easily.  In CRM 2013, it is normally tucked away in the command bar. It’s a global tool. So surely it would be a great idea to have it globally available? Therefore I have submitted this request to explore the possibility of its promotion.

Current Where you can currently find Advanced Find (command bar):




Proposed Where I would like to see it placed:

I know it might be a BIG ask for this feature to be moved. But as they say, no harm in asking right?

Fingers crossed.
