Knowing how to setup a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Trial environment is imperative for evaluating Dynamics 365 offerings (Sales / Service / Marketing / etc.). Given the numerous new major features released biannually (Release Waves) – last thing we want to do is “dirty” our Dynamics 365 production environments by enabling new features or previews for our evaluation or planning purpose. Dynamics Sandbox environment is another good option for trying out new features – however it may not be as “detached” and “clean” as a fully separated trial environment.
I usually start with a Microsoft Dynamics 365 ..read more

Microsoft Dynamics 365 allows a table column (field) type that supports selection of multiple option values (choices). This is a very good field format type to setup vs creating custom “one to many” or “many to many” table for storing multiple values associated with a record. An example would be an Account record with the various types of wine it carries such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Merlot, etc. (I’m working in the luxury brand winery CRM these days so this example readily comes to mind…)
At present, Multi-Select Choices field are not supported via Business Rules or legacy Workflows ..read more

Here is an example screen shot showing sharing the app with Everyone, a Microsoft 365 security group, and a specific user. Note: If sharing with Everyone – then NO need to share with specific users.
Ensure the users have appropriate permissions for any Microsoft Dataverse tables (entities) that the embedded canvas app uses – this means checking the usual Dynamics 365 / Power Apps Security Roles and assigning them ..read more

The Power Apps Embed a canvas app on a model-driven form capability can offer some wonderful mash up design options (best of Model Driven and Canvas App together). However – there is a limitation – currently it only works on the Dynamics 365 Web Client as noted in this limitation article.
The canvas app custom control is only supported for use with the Web client type. Currently, the Phone and Tablet client types aren’t supported.
So what happens if you enabled the Embed Canvas app control on the Phone or Tablet Client?
Error – this is what happens when we enabl ..read more

Thanks. Good how to write up.
Reina's Teenage Dynamics 365 Learnings
This process does take multiple steps and it is important not to get them mixed up nor skip a few steps. However, when mastered, creating standardized documents will be much easier using templates!
There will be a video tutorial at the bottom of this post.
1: Have/Create a word template
For this demo, I will use this Interview Thank You template already prepared prior to this process.
Next, you need actual information to put into those areas (name, address, number, etc.) Let’s use some sample contacts for this demo.
