When working with the Unified Interface in Dynamics, we have application navigation area on the left side: Ideally, Dynamics should be providing a tooltip for each of the icons in that menu. Like this: However, every now and then you or your users will notice that it looks more like this: You can’s see… Read More »
Here is something that does not come up often.. When you have a few controls for the same attribute added to the form, using Xrm.Page.getControl(“<name>”).setDisabled won’t enable/disable all of them – it will only work for the first control on the form. At least in the 8.2 version. If you wanted to do the same… Read More »
I was listening to the PowerApps/Flow course below, and, of course, right off the bat ran into something that made me backtrack what was said in the video a few times till I finally figured out what was going wrong. Here is the course url, btw (I like the course so far, though I’m definitely… Read More »
I like freebies – who does not? So, now that Microsoft Teams are free, I figured I just have to have them. (Want to have them for free, too? Just go here: https://products.office.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/free ) I mean, I did not really know much about teams – have not been using them where I work, and,… Read More »

Actually, you may feel a bit overwhelmed by the potential complexity of… Read More »
First of all, you can’t, really, change Scrum framework. If you do, it’s not going to be Scrum anymore. But, since Scrum is just a framework, and a lightweight framework for that matter, it leaves the details of Scrum implementation to the Scrum teams. Hence, there is some room there for doing things differently,… Read More »
Still trying to figure out some of the basics, I guess. On a non-scrum project, we would normally have titles such as a developer, a tester, a business analyst, etc. But, since Scrum does not recognize titles within the development team, and since there are only 3 roles in Scrum, the only “role” business analysts… Read More »
I have to say that taking PSM I test probably produced more adrenaline within an hour (that’s how long you can spend on this test) than taking any of the Dynamics exams, but this is because Scrum is something more theoretical to me. It’s simple with Dynamics – here is how you do the plugins,… Read More »
It can’t be solely about Dynamics all the time, so how about Scrum, just for a change? To start with, I’ve been on so many different projects, and a lot of them did claim to be following SCRUM. But I am just starting to realize, now, how little did I know to believe that… Read More »
