In my last article and the article before that, I discussed a few of the new PCF controls that became available for Dynamics 365 Customer Service. In this article I am going to wrap up this topic and discuss the remaining PCF controls that you can add to your custom or out of the box case forms in the Customer Workspace app. You might have thought that I covered aRead More

D365 CS: Spice up your case forms with new controls!

If you read last weeks article, where I talked about the new 360 customer component which came out as part of 2023 release wave 1. I also talked about how you can use and configure this component in conjunction with cases in Dynamics 365 customer service. The Microsoft documentation has this component listed under Dynamics 365 Customer Service, so it might be the case that we can’t use the componentRead More

Modernized Case Grids

You might not have noticed due to the holidays last month, but another 2022 Wave 2 feature that is part of Dynamics 365 Customer Service went into general availability in December! A nice little holiday present from Microsoft! This feature gives customer service agents and managers access to relevant information regarding cases. I am sure you’re familiar with the ‘regular’ case grid, which is a list of case records, configurableRead More

New Timer Control for SLA’s

We had the timer control for cases for quite some time and if you’re not familiar with what this is or what this does, let me explain it to you. The timer control can be added to forms of tables that have been enabled for SLA’s. Cases are enabled for SLA’s out of the box which means we can immediately add the control to a case form. When a SLARead More

Setup Mailbox for Automatic Case Creation in Unified Interface

In the past I’ve written an article on how to setup and configure a support mailbox in exchange where customers can send emails to if they have an issue that needs to be resolved. We were able to use the automatic record creation and update rules (ACR) in the legacy interface to configure the logic to create a case record for the email that came in. I’ve tried to setRead More

SLA’s in the Unified Interface

Some people might not have noticed that SLA’s (service level agreements) didn’t just move from the legacy interface to the unified interface. There were also a few updates to SLA’s and the way we can configure them in Dynamics 365 Customer Service has slightly changed. Before I get into that, let me first explain what SLA’s are and how they are used. What are SLA’s? Service level agreements allow organizationsRead More

Dynamics 365 Customer Service: KB Automatic Filtering

I ran into a feature the other day that I thought would be worth writing an article about. This feature has been around for a while, but I feel that it might slipped in without a lot of us noticing, so here goes! Administrators can configure the knowledge base search control on the case form to automatically filter knowledge base articles based on data populated in the case record. ThisRead More

In this article I am going to explain how we can setup a mailbox in exchange and tie that to a support mailbox in Dynamics 365. When people send an email to this mailbox, a case will automatically be created by the system. We can then use a workflow to assign this new case to a queue or team as described in this previously published article. Please note for thisRead More
