One advantage with parquet files is that it keeps history. Run the below script and it will give you the history.  %% sql DESCRIBE HISTORY dirpartytable; Below is an example I have in my environment. Use "VERSION AS OF"  Now that you have the history, you can use the VERSION AS OF statement. This will give you the previous values for the record.  %% sql SELECT partynumber, primarycontactphone, primarycontactemail FROM dirpartytable WHERE partynumber = '000001702' ; SELECT partynumber, primarycontactphone, primarycontactemail FROM dirpartytable VERSION AS OF 2 WHERE partynumber = '000001702' ; The below example is when I deleted the primary contact phone number.

This will be a fairly straightforward blog post covering different ways of copying data from a shortcut delta table into a delta table created automatically via a notebook. Select statement with a join %% sql SELECT     party.recid AS PartyId     ,party.name AS Name     ,COALESCE(party.namealias, '' ) AS ShortName     ,COALESCE(postal.countryregionid, '' ) AS Country     ,COALESCE(postal.state, '' ) AS State     ,COALESCE(postal.city, '' ) AS City     ,COALESCE(postal.street, '' ) AS Street     ,COALESCE(postal.zipcode, '' ) AS PostCode     ,COALESCE(phone.locator, '' ) AS PhoneNumber     ,COALESCE(email.locator, '' ) AS Email FROM dirpartytable party LEFT OUTER JOIN logisticspostaladdress postal ON postal. location = party.primaryaddresslocation AND postal.validto > current_date () -- filters only valid(effective) addresses LEFT OUTER JOIN logisticselectronicadd...

I’ve recently been exploring various analytical options within Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations, and one that I’ve delved deeply into is Link to Fabric. There is a walkthrough guide available on the Microsoft Fasttrack Github repo . See  Hands-on Lab: Link to Fabric from Dynamics 365 finance and operations apps This guide is an excellent starting point and should be one of the first things you try out. However, it’s important to understand that there are limitations to this approach that may not be suitable for all real-world scenarios. Lets discuss these items and what I have been exploring ... Background I want to join multiple tables to create my denormalised views that I can report on. My goal is to use  Direct Lake  mode in the semantic model. Specifically, I wanted to avoid the need to reimport data into Power BI for reporting.  Key Limitations The first limitation you’ll encounter is: By design, only tables in the semantic model derived from tables in a Lak...

When it comes to setting up multiple companies, stream lining the process can save you time and effort. One effective strategy is to establish a template company or select a source company to replicate from.  In this blog post, I won't go through how to use the copy company feature as there are many blogs out there and Microsoft has some good documentation. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/dev-itpro/data-entities/copy-configuration What I will explain is an issue I faced when using it. I found that the copy number sequence isn't working as expected. It throws an error when used as part of the copy company. Number sequence feature: There are two check boxes for number sequence copy: Copy number sequence - this will add number sequence entities and when run, it will change company references in the staging table before processing to target. Reset to smallest value - this resets the number sequence if it is used back to its smallest value. In most cases b...

Microsoft recently released the new Invoice Capture for Dynamics 365 Finance. I ran through installing and configuring it.  From that experience, below is my brain dump and hopefully it can help with things that are not so obvious. Three type of invoice captures There are three invoice type paths that can be captured. These drive the screen layout and what kind of information is mandatory. PO invoice Header-only Cost invoice When an invoice comes in, you can select one of the three invoice types. Below are the three screen layouts and differences. PO invoice – Invoices of this type are associated with purchase orders. The purchase order details must be determined on each invoice line. Both the header and the lines must be reviewed in Invoice capture. This will create a pending vendor invoice. Header-only – Invoices of this type are associated with purchase orders. The purchase order field on the invoice header is a mandatory field. If the Automatically create invoice lines featur...
