Yes, crate training is a great idea.
If he potties in the wrong place, don't even bother scolding him for it. Do you really think he's going to understand "Bad dog! Your not supposed to potty on the bed!". Uh huh lol, dog's don't understand english and it's not gonna do one darn bit of good. Even if he picks up on the tone of your voice, your only teaching him not to do it when your present. This can also cause problems trying to train him outside because you will have trained that he's not supposed to go potty in front of you. He won't link the scolding to the location, just the act. He'll just do it when your in the next room instead. Just clean it up like he did nothing wrong.
He is only a puppy, he needs to be restricted and not given the opportunity to go potty where he shouldn't. This is where a crate will come in handy.
I'VE BEEN FROSTED!!!
Be sure the crate isn't too big. If he can potty in one end and sleep in the other, it's too big. The crate needs to be just big enough to stand and turn around in.
Dachunds are a little more resistant than some to house training but they can learn it if you are consistent and patient.
