WELCOME TO  THE D365  GEEK'S BLOG

Power Automate has a lot of advantages over Classic Workflows. I’ve given presentations on this topic and it’s an ongoing conversation piece in the community, of what everyone should be using. I’ve made a commitment to only build Power Automate Flows and NOT Classic Wo...

There is no denying that the XrmToolBox is one of the best collections of tools for any developer, consultant, business analyst or administrators who work with Dynamics 365, CDS and Power Apps. I have used it on nearly every project I have worked on and it’s one of the...

I wrote recently about how to track duration in stages of a Business Process Flow. This is a common request from customer as understanding where processes are slowing down or where they are really efficient, is important so that companies can grow and evolve and become...
