ActivityPointer (activity) entity

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013

The activity pointer (activity) entity represents any activity or task that is performed, or to be performed by a user. An activity is any action for which an entry can be made on a calendar.

Whenever you create an activity record in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, a corresponding activity pointer record is created. This implies that the activity record and the corresponding activity pointer record have the same value for the ActivityId attribute. For example, if you create an Email record, the attribute values of Email.ActivityId and the corresponding ActivityPointer.ActivityId will be the same.

The ActivityPointer.ActivityTypeCode attribute defines the type of the activity. The possible values for this attribute are defined in the Activity Type (activitypointer_activitytypecode) option set.
