Today’s tip is from AK. (Be like AK, and send your next awesome tip to jar@crmtipoftheday.com). Adding a subgrid to model-driven form in the maker portal brings the search box which takes an extra row. If you want to hide it, you may tempt to switch to classic and clear the Display search box.

Tip #1318: Why don’t I see the “associated records” link in subgrids?
In unified interface, when you click on the more option button, you will sometimes see the the option to see the related records in the subgrid.

Tip #1202: Editable grid control not working in subgrids
I enabled the editable grid control on a subgrid, but after publishing, I still see the read-only grid in the subgrid in classic UI. The grid is editable in unified interface. What’s up?

Just because you do this on the form does not mean that you should totally replace the “Potential Customer” field. One of the areas […]
Tip #300: Adding a specific activity type subgrid
Occasionally I get a design requirement to have a subgrid on a form that only includes a certain type of activity. For example, a grid of scheduled appointments on the account form. This sounds simple, but due to the mysteries of the activity pointer, it is not so straightforward. If you add a subgrid and […]
