IMPORT ERROR ON DYNAMICS 365

MICROSOFT DYNAMICS 365 IMPORT ERROR WHILE TRYING TO IMPORT DATA FROM THE DYNAMICS 365 TEMPLATE

Scenario:- If you exported the Dynamics 365 data on to the Dynamics 365 Template for bulk updates and reuse the same template for import into Dynamics 365..



Solution for this error:
"You cannot import data to this record because the record was updated in Microsoft Dynamics 365 after it was exported"


whenever you try to export the data on to the Template for update of data and reimport back the same template then you need to very cautious about the changes you or any Dynamics 365 users on the Live environment.

Either you need to hold the users from editing or updating the existing records while you are making changes and reimport.

Or

You need to reimport the updated template data before any update have been made on the live environment. so that you will not be in this situation.

Otherwise you will see the above error.....

I hope this helps folks.

Hi Guys,

Scenario : As an Administrator you create a dashboard and based on the users permissions then other users will be able to see the dashboard.

Make sure you change the Administration viewable by "Organisation".

Please see the below image..


Then publish the dashboard.

So all users are able to see the changes on the dashboard.

I hope this helps..

MICROSOFT DYNAMICS 365 SYSTEM SETTINGS OUTLOOK/EXCHANGE AND DYNAMICS 365 SYNCHRONIZATION


Hello Everyone,

Today i a m going to explain how we can disable  and Enable Synchronization direction between mapped Outlook/Exchange fields and Dynamics 365 fields.

> Dynamics 365 > Settings > Administration > System Settings

Entity Type:- Appointment, Contact, Fax, Letter, Phone Call, Recurring Appointment, Service Activity, and Task

Please find the below images:




   

 

So when we look at the image above the Outlook/Exchange we can view, create or change filters that specify all the entity types in Dynamics 365 that are Synchronized to Outlook/Exchange.

we can also view synchronized fields and the synchronization direction for each entity type.



Scenario:- If you want to disable autocreation of Task from Outlook into Dynamics 365 and vice versa the  double click the arrow marks so that it will disable data flow between Outlook and Dynamics 365.

Note:- We can  not disable the Outlook/Exchange Field "Importance", "Regarding" and "Subject" fields..

Same thing applies to remaining entity type in Outlook/Exchange and some of the fields might not be disabled and we can do one way data flow like Outlook to Dynamics 365 and not Dynamics 365 to Outlook.

Mobile:- For Mobile user Offline Data access also we need to allow users to turn  on mobile offline data and before that construct the filters so that Mobile users can get more accurate information access while they are offline.

Filters can be turned on from the below  image..




This feature is very useful while using Dynamics 365 data offline...

  


   The above image explains about the general system settings, so in this topic iam going to explain only about the Synchronization only

I have explained bit about the system filters, synchronized fields and offline filters then 
configure general synchronization rules for your entire organisation for appointments, contacts, and tasks..

Appointments:-

You can check the box for the appointment attachments with Outlook or Exchange..

Contacts:-  You can Synchronize mailing address only in Outlook contact..

Also Synchronize all three addresses(Business, Home,Other) in Outlook contact

Task:-  Check the box for Tasks that are assigned in outlook.

Lastly select whether to enable syncing of resource bookings with Outlook..
Check the box for synchronize resource bookings with Outlook..

I hope this helps..
