Power Platform Automation tools

Hi Everyone,

Today i am going how the power platform automation can be achieved.

As you all know the Power Platform is built on the Common Data Service.

The automation can be done using the

  1. Business Process Flows
  2. Business Rules
  3. Workflows using the classic Common Data Service for Apps workflow engine
  4. Workflows using Microsoft Flow
Business Process Flow: Much like the Classic Web App of the Dynamics 365 first party apps. you can drag and drop the steps and stages according to the business scenario on the Business Process Flow App designer.
Business Rules: Business Rules work on client side and server side of the application, you can use the business rules.

Business rules are built using conditions and actions. The following can be accomplished with business rules:
  • Set field values
  • Clear field values
  • Set field requirement levels
  • Show or hide fields
  • Enable or disable fields
  • Validate data and show error messages
  • Create business recommendations based on business intelligence.
Classic Workflows: Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Applications  use the workflow for back ground or real time workflow.
 You can see some of the actions below:
  • Create record
  • Update record
  • Assign record
  • Send email
  • Start child workflow
  • Change status
  • Stop workflow
Microsoft Flow: Microsoft Flow is used to connect the third party app with the Common Data Service Connectors, there are around 200 connectors available for the flow.
The main types of flows are:
Automated
Instant
Scheduled
Business process
So based on the above four workflows  the power platform automation can be achieved.
I hope this helps

Microsoft Dynamics 365 CE How to turn off smart matching completely

Hello Everyone,

There are situations clients complain about the tracking of emails on Dynamics 365.

As you all know – tracking is set through the Dynamics 365 App for Outlook.

Suppose one of the users track the email from Outlook then rest of the emails within that chain will be tracked to “account, contact, opportunity” etc..

What is smart tracking?

According to Microsoft MSDN documents:

“When an incoming email message is processed by the Email Router, the system extracts information associated with the email message subject, sender address, and recipients’ addresses that link the email activity to other Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement apps records. This correlation process, also known as smart matching, uses the following criteria to match received email message information to email activities:

Subject matching. Prefixes, such as RE: or Re:, and letter case are ignored. For example, email message subjects with Re: hello and Hello would be considered a match.

Sender and recipient matching: The system calculates the number of exact sender and recipient email addresses in common.

 What is the resolution for this not to happen completely?

Its simple let me show you that..
Go to Administration > System Settings > Email Tab > Uncheck the Use correlation to track email conversations.

Then you are good to go.. no more smart tracking, this turn off will be hugely effective when there is sensitive information which might be accessible for other users with in the business.

You can still configure the smart matching expression according to your subject description of your organisations best practices.

I hope this helps
