Increase Your Storage in Azure Dev VM to fix disk size issue while D365 F&O DB restore.

Image
Hi All, When attempting to transfer a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations (D365 F&O) Tier 2 or higher environment database to your development machine, you may encounter a common hurdle: insufficient disk space within your development Virtual Machine (VM) due to the significant growth in the size of D365 F&O databases over time. Typically, the bacpac file downloaded from Lifecycle Services (LCS) is highly compressed. This blog post outlines a step-by-step guide to effectively address this scenario and manage your disk space during the restoration of a Dynamics 365 F&O database from a Tier 2 or higher environment. Scenario: Imagine you've imported the bacpac file into your database, and as time progresses, you find yourself running low on disk space, requiring additional room to complete the database restoration. Solution: Follow these steps to expand the available space on your drive by swapping it from another drive where memory is free: Step 1: Begin by ope...

Copy Data from Excel to D365 Finance and Operation without Excel Addins/DIXF

Image
 Hello Friends, Welcome back to my new Blog. Here I will discuss the feature where you can copy the data from Excel to D365 F&O without any excel add-ins. Yes, you heard correctly without any Excel Add-in, OData, or Data management framework. This is possible because of the new feature provided by Microsoft, "New Grid Control." Before this feature was introduced, Whenever users entered any line in the Grid, they had to wait until the system loaded all its related information in the line. So, for example, when you add a new line to the Inventory counting journal line, As soon as you select the Item number, all the related information gets loaded in the grid line like name, cost, price, etc. However, until all the corresponding data is loaded, users are not allowed to move to another/new line. This process was quite time-consuming. With this feature, users can type ahead of the system and the user can keep adding new lines without waiting for the system to load all re...

Computed Column/Fields in Data Entity in Microsoft Dynamics 365 For Finance and Operations Without X++ code(only SQL Statement)

Image
Hello Friends, I am Vikas Vaish and I am back with a new topic of discussion i.e. Computed column in the data entity for D365 for Finance and Operation. Scenario:       1) We have to add any system-generated fields to our data entities like "Created By", "Created Date Time", "RecId" etc.       2) We need to create a computed field that displays data from some other table that is not part of the Data Source in our current Data entity. We can achieve the above requirement by creating computed columns and writing simple SQL statements (Without x++ code). The SQL statement can be simple or complex as per our business requirements. We can even write SQL Case, Subqueries in our SQL statement. So let have a look at how we can proceed. Solution Scenario 1: For this example let create one Data entity for the Customers (CustTable) Here we can see CustTable as the main table for the Data entity. So when the system compiles this data entity, It creates a belo...
