Dynamics 365 v9: Limitations Of Unified Interface

Hi,

We have started working on the upgrade project from 8.2 to 9.0. As we all know that we have Power Apps in 9.0 and exited about it. We are trying to understand the limitations around that before we start and would like share them here.

  • Advanced Find
  • Bulk edit
  • Merge records
  • Record sharing
  • All options under Set Personal Options (Settings gear)
  • Chart drill down
  • Learning Path
  • Creating personal dashboards and charts
  • Creating personal views
  • Charts as visualization for sub-grids on forms
  • Activities roll-up view
  • Creating email template with slugs
  • Creating duplicate detection jobs
  • Composite address control
  • Run workflow
  • Filtering on read-only grids
  • Run report (SSRS)
  • Letter, Fax, Recurring Appointments
  • Campaign management – campaigns, campaign activities and quick campaign
  • Goal management
  • Marketing list
  • Position entity
  • Global notifications
  • Admin experiences
  • Editable grids on phones
  • Audit Histroy
  • Refresh button on Roll up fields.

I hope these things would be a part of future releases and will share it as and when it gets released.

Hope this helps.

The 'ascending' attribute is not declared - Importing Solution

Hi,

Today I have received the below error while importing the solution in CRM. I was not able to get anything by seeing the error as the information given was not helping to find the exact error and fix it. 



After some search able to find the fix. 

1) Extract the Solution zip file.
2) Open Customizations.xml in a XML Editor (I normally use Visual Studio)
3) Search for "ascending" and remove this text "ascending="true" whereever you find it.
4) Zip the components and import again. You will not get any error this time.

Hope this helps.
