Looks like something has changed in V9 recently that did affect my Configuration Data Manager solution, too, so there is an updated version you can download now which works with V9.

Hierarchy security has a bit unexpected side-effect. In theory, it is supposed to give managers access to the records assigned to their subordinates – I am assuming the idea there was to bypass role security and to quickly give managers access to that data.

So the purpose of this… Read More »
I never, actually, tried the Field Service before – just never had to. You might say that’s so much for being an MVP, eh? And you would probably be right, but, to my excuse, Ottawa is still using on-prem version of Dynamics almost exclusively. It’s a bit of an on-premise enclave here – Microsoft is… Read More »
I love the idea of model-driven PowerApps. XRM is what I’ve been doing most of the time, so that kind of XRM-only plan would be just the right plan for me.
