Microsoft dynamics CRM is definitely turning colorful and interesting(has been always to me but in terms of look and feel). Recently subgrid’s in CRM have taken a full swing be in terms of editing them or looking colorful.

I tried something with my dynamics crm 365 trial and this is how it looks :

Now if i talk about above picture – it is actually a combination of Out of the box feature and UNSUPPORTED feature.

1. The header of the subgrid can be configured to use any color by clicking on subgrid properties from form editor like below:to make the most of out of this color option you need to know the exact hexa/html code of the color, i used this website to get the code : http://htmlcolorcodes.com/
2. For the second feature i have actually used unsupported javascript below :

   function subGridOnload()
   {
   var grid = $('#contactcasessgrid'); //Replace Grid name here
   if (grid == null)
   {                            // delay one second and try again.
   setTimeout(subGridOnload, 1000);
   return;
   }
   if(grid[0] == undefined)
   {
   // delay one second and try again.
   setTimeout(subGridOnload, 1000);
   return;
   }
   if(grid[0].control == undefined)
   {
   // delay one second and try again.
   setTimeout(subGridOnload, 1000);
   return;
   }
   if(grid[0].control == null)
   {
   // delay one second and try again.
   setTimeout(subGridOnload, 1000);
   return;
   }
   if (grid[0].control.get_totalRecordCount() == -1)
   {
   // delay one second and try again.
   setTimeout(subGridOnload, 1000);
   return;
   }
   
   // logic Replace status names and colours as required
   
   $('#contactcasessgrid td').filter(function() {
   return $(this).text() == 'Resolved';
   }).closest('tr').css('background-color', 'Green');
   $('#contactcasessgrid td').filter(function() {
   return $(this).text() == 'Active';
   }).closest('tr').css('background-color', 'Red');
   }
   
   
   

   As seen in the above code , i am assigning Green color to Resolved cases and Red color to Active cases on the subgrid.

   you can read any value in the subgrid and apply any color to it.

   hope this helps.

   cheers!
