Purchase order Preparation Workspace In D365 for finance and operations

March 17, 2018 by alirazazaidi

Dynamics 365 for Finance and operations has amazing feature of Workspaces. Workspace contains all possible option related to one task. For example if we  explore  “Purchase Order Preparation” Workspace in “Procurement and sourcing” module. You find all options related to Purchase order.

 

Here workspaces divided into three section. Summary section, tabbed detail section and related link. If you access workspaces on Cloud. Certainly you will find here power BI section. With different Bars and Charts. I using Dynamics 365 for finance and operations on dev box on my laptop. So this feature is not enabled

 

 

 

 

 

If we see Summary section.  It will leads us to New purchase order screen, All Purchase Orders, And some other status, that  orders without Confirm Delivery Date. Approved and review or external review.

 

If we click any one of Summary boxes, these leads us to list pages. For example I clicked on in review box.  This will leads to list page and detail of in review records are shown there.

 

If we click on All purchase orders, this leads us to list page, for example If I click on in review purchase orders. This will leads us to page these two in review records are showing.

 

 

 

If We can see Workspace in detail, we found some tab, which shows the similar details. It is powerful and light weight feature. There are multiple grids and it load data in a few seconds.

 

 

Here I found two workflow related tabs . For example purchase order assigned to current user can be shown in “Assign to me” screen.

 

 

 

 

This workspace concept is amazing,  It contains Inquiries , and list page on single list. For example you can search Purchase order in drop down.

 

 

And Search result is here.

Notes about Labels D365 for Finance and operations.

March 14, 2018 by alirazazaidi

 

Suppose we are doing customization or new development from scratch. We need labels for our control, forms, fields for display caption or titles.

 

So first step is to create it by adding new item in Visual studio.

 

 

 

Name it as required,

 

 

Select language. I select the English “US”

 

Make it finish

 

As a result new  label file is created in visual studio solution

 

 

Click on file and add values through editors.

 

Labels created here can be search at control, field, EDT and Enum can be searched and used

 

 

 

 

After creating labels file in project you find button in labels.

 

Search and selected required label

It is not recommend to create a new label for every field instead search and use label. For example for “Description” search and use existing one.

 

Something similar appear when I searched “Description”.

It shows all possible labels

 

 

You can add labels in label file using text editor.  For example I write AL0005 in text editor.

 

On saving, On opening label editor I found something similar.

 

Operation could not completed parameter is incorrect D365 for finance and operations.

March 14, 2018 by alirazazaidi

Aahaaaa, just started development, one table, some edts and a form, as I tried to compile , I found the Error

” Operation could not completed parameter is incorrect”.

Machine generated alternative text:
Microsoft Visual Studio 
The operation could not be completed. The parameter is 
incorrect. 
OK 
x

Interestingly, the old trick, run visual studio as administrator still works here.

So I saved the project and run the Visual studio by right click on visual studio Icon and select the run at Administrator.
