Dynamics365 : Stop Products from Copying when Quote is Created

Question

I am developing plugins in Microsoft Dynamics365 CRM and I need Opportunity Products NOT to get copied when one creates a new quote. I want to manually do that with a plugin, so as to perform certain calculations and set custom fields.

How do I disable this out of box feature?

Answer 1

I doubt you can stop the OOB behavior because of the nature of Sales pipeline (Opportunity products cloned to Quote details on Quote creation).

But anyway you are planning to re-add those products using plugin (guess it is going to be Asynchronous Post Create on Quote). In that plugin, you can delete the cloned products (quote detail) which came from Oppty before re-adding into Quote.
