Refresh button missing on Roll-Up fields in Dynamics 365 UCI?

Hi Everyone,

Today I got a call from one of my friends asking is there any change in the Roll-up Fields implementation on UCI? I was wondered for sometime and I didn't read about the limitation as such and I have asked what was the reason behind that question. He explained that he was not able to find Refresh button on the field.

It looks like below in the Classic, the refresh button is inline with the field and clearly visible.

Out of curiosity, I have quickly created a roll up field and spent sometime in clicking here and there. You know what, I was able to get the Recalculate button by just clicking on button available before label of the field. And when I click on that, it is recalculating and showing the latest value.

Hope this helps.

What is "Toast Notification Display time" in Dynamics 365

Hi,

Today I was working on some POC on a trail instance and observed that there is something called "Toast Notification Display Time" option under Settings on the Ribbon.

Let's try to understand what are Toast Notifications. For example, if you have created a record using Quick Create, you will see a message after creating saying "Your changes were saved" as shown below.

These are Toast Notifications and these will shown on the screen for some seconds and disappears. 

This particular setting Toast Notification Display Time will extend the notification display timeout to 10 times and it is default.

A quick search on this, make me understand this was added for Accessibility reasons.

Hope this helps.

Dynamics 365 – How to access Customizations, Solutions and Admin Features in UCI/UUI/UI Only Mode

Hi,

We all know that go forward way for Dynamics 365 is UCI and there was a major issue in that. Users has to switch back to classic to perform Admin actions. Microsoft PG heard our voices and released some easy ways to get it.

You can just click on Advanced Settings from the ribbon as shown below.

It will open a window with only Settings tab which has all Admin feature.

We don't need to worry about going back to classic and navigating. Now it is just a click.

Hope this helps.
