Create or edit an announcement

Can I do this task?

1. In the Navigation Pane, click Settings, click Administration, and then click Announcements.
2. On the Actions toolbar, click New.
3. On the Announcement tab, enter information or observe any noted restrictions or requirements as needed:
   • Title

     Enter a title that clearly and unambiguously describes the nature and purpose of the announcement.

   • Body

     Enter the entire text of the announcement. You can cut and paste an announcement text from another application. However, any formatting will be lost.

4. Under Additional Settings, you can also enter additional information.
   • More Information URL

     Enter a Web address path for a Web site with more details related to the announcement. A Web address that does not include "http://" is automatically expanded to a full Web address.

     In the announcement, the Web address is an active external link.

   • Expiration Date

     Enter the expiration date for the announcement, or click the Select Date button to select the date.

     When an announcement expires, its expiration date cannot be updated. Microsoft Dynamics CRM removes it from the Announcements area, and you must create a new announcement.

5. Click Save or Save and Close.

Note

You must use your organization's selected date format, such as 01/01/2006 or 31.12.2005.
