Managed properties only apply when you include an entity with a managed solution and import it into another environment. These settings allow a solution maker to have some control over the level of customization that they want to allow people who install their solution to have. To set managed properties for an entity, select the entity and select Managed Properties on the menu bar.
The Can be customized option controls all the other options. If this option is False, none of the other settings apply. When it is True, you can specify the other customization options.
Entities have more managed properties than any other type of solution component. If the entity is customizable, you can set the following options:
-
Display name can be modified
-
Can Change Additional Properties
-
New forms can be created
-
New charts can be created
-
New views can be created
Except for Can Change Additional Properties, these options should be self-explanatory. The Can Change Additional Properties property simply means anything not covered by the other options. If you set all the individual options to
False, you might as well set Can be customized toFalse.
