Configure custom status on SLA Timer
This article is about another feature that is part of Dynamics 365 2022 Release Wave 1. Let me first explain what this feature is about, because when you read the information on Microsoft’s doc site related to this feature, it might be a little bit confusing. A while ago I wrote this article on the new SLA timer control where I explained how you can add this new control toRead More
Interact with Dynamics 365 records in Teams Chat(Preview)
I feel like I’ve been repeating myself, since this is yet another article where I talk about additional functionality in the Microsoft Teams and Dynamics 365 integration. As a recap, previously I wrote two articles on the embedded Teams chat in Dynamics 365 which allows users to access Microsoft Teams chat from the Dynamics 365 application (if you haven’t read the articles yet you can do so here and here),Read More
Access Dynamics 365 data in Teams meetings (Preview)
Microsoft is investing more and more in the integration between Microsoft Teams and Dynamics 365 which I believe sets Dynamics 365 even further apart from the competition. I’m sure you are familiar with some of the features we have access to today, like the ability to view Dynamics 365 data from within Microsoft Teams or the ability to access a Teams chat from within Dynamics 365, but there are aRead More
Power Automate: Copy and paste image field in D365
In this article I am going to discuss how you can copy the data inside an image field from one record to the image field of another record. This could come in handy in different ways but what I am trying to accomplish here is to show related ‘hobby’ data on a contact record in Dynamics 365. In the example I am using for this article, I want to showRead More
2022 Release Wave 1 | Part 3: D365 Customer & Field Service

In this article I discussing some of the most important features that are mentioned in the release notes for Dynamics 365 Customer Service and Field Service and what they mean for end-users and administrators.

Command Bar designer for model-driven apps(preview)
Most of you who have needed to customize buttons in the command bar in Dynamics 365 found out that this is not something that we can do by using any of the configuration tools that come with Dynamics 365. I’ve been pulling my hair out on many occasions until I found the ribbon workbench created by Scott Durow (one of the nicest people I have ever met!) which is partRead More
2021 Release Wave 2 | Part 3: Field Service
It’s August and that means that now have the ability to install the early release features of 2021 Release Wave 2 in a sandbox environment for testing!

Deal Manager Workspace(preview)
I was lucky to have access to the deal manager workspace private preview a couple of months ago, but since July 2021 this feature, which is part of 2021 Release Wave 1, is in public preview and started to roll out across all the regions! (If you want to see if this is enabled for your region you can check that here, you’re looking for build 9.0.21072, which is comingRead More
Check order status with Power Virtual Agent & Flow
I get a lot of requests where my prospects want Power Virtual Agent to be able to answer questions about order statuses. The scenario here is that someone ordered something from your website, or maybe even in person and now they are looking to see what the status of the order is, how the order was shipped and maybe they even want to get a tracking number. I am notRead 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
