Source Codes in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central: Use a Different Source Code for Journals

Tuesday 17th Dec 2024Monday 14th Oct 2024 Ian Grieve2 minute read0 comment

This article is part of the Source Codes in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and of the larger ongoing In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Administration), how do I… series and of the wider In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, how do I… series which I am posting as I familiarise myself with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Different source codes can be assigned on the General Journal Templates (101) page, but, unfortunately, not per batch or journal, so you will need to use journal templates if you want to use different source codes.

To set a journal template with a source code, simply open the template page and on the required row, select a Source Code from the list:

All journals created in batches created for the template will use the assigned source code.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Regenerate a Variation of a Flow in Copilot

Monday 16th Dec 2024Sunday 1st Dec 2024 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 8th of the new functionality in the Copilot for Power Automate section is regenerate a variation of a flow in Copilot.

In Power Automate, the Copilot creating wizard is a tool that helps you design and build flows using AI assistance. You can describe your desired flow, and Copilot generates a preliminary version of the flow. If the initial version isn’t satisfactory, you can ask Copilot to regenerate a different variation of the flow, allowing you to explore alternative designs and find the best solution for your needs.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically

General Availability: Dec 2024

Feature Details

Prior to this feature, you were given a flow recommendation by Copilot after you described what you wanted. You had to either accept it or update your query to regenerate. With this feature, you don’t need to update your query. Instead, you can select Regenerate to force a new variation to be generated. You can choose from different variations to select the one you like the best.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Updated Browse Connectors Pane In Cloud Flows

Monday 16th Dec 2024Sunday 1st Dec 2024 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 15th of the new functionality in the Cloud flows section is updated Browse connectors pane in cloud flows.

Makers can search for and select from connectors action in cloud flows quickly and more efficiently.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically

General Availability: Nov 2024

Feature Details

When you select the plus sign (+) for an action in the designer, the action pane opens. The action pane lets you search and browse for connectors and actions. Today, it’s difficult to find the connector makers want, as there’s no way to access favorite or highly frequently used connectors, or most common built-in tools of a flow. With this change, makers can favorite any connector or action so they show up in the Add an action pane by default under the Favorites section. They can quickly access AI capabilities in the product under the AI capabilities section, and they can quickly leverage building blocks or built-in tools like Control, Data operation, JSON, and more, under the Builtin tools section.

This improvement to the Browse connectors action pane in cloud flows makes it more accessible and efficient to makers while adding artifacts to their flow.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Cloud Flows Are Automatically Defined In Dataverse Solutions

Friday 13th Dec 2024Sunday 1st Dec 2024 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 14th of the new functionality in the Cloud flows section is cloud flows are automatically defined in Dataverse solutions.

Cloud flows defined in Dataverse solutions simplify administration and application lifecycle for customers by allowing the use of concepts like environment variables, connection references, and solutions. These also help deliver delightful maker experiences like drafting, publishing, and versioning.

Public Preview: Mar 21, 2023
General Availability: Nov 2024

Feature Details

Many benefits are available when cloud flows are added to Dataverse solutions, including the ability to use features like environment variables and solutions. This simplifies the deployment process between environments. Solutions also make it easier to organize and manage a large number of flows by providing a natural grouping. Having flows defined in Dataverse also unlocks new functionality such as support for drafts and versioning.

Currently, makers create non-solution cloud flows by default that aren’t stored in Dataverse. With this change, cloud flows are stored in Dataverse by default. We’ll provide an ability to migrate flows outside solutions to solutions to simplify the administration process and unlock new maker experiences.

My Opinion

This always seemed to be an odd omission, so good to see the hole now being plugged.

Source Codes in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central: Why You Might Want to Use a Different Source Code for Journals

Friday 13th Dec 2024Monday 14th Oct 2024 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

So far in this little series, I have explained how to create new source codes and change the assigned defaults for source codes, but why would you want to create additional source codes?

In most cases, I would not alter or delete any of the source codes included on the Source Codes (257) or the assignment of them in the Source Code Setup (279) page.

However, you can also override the source code on journal template, which means you can use custom source codes for different types of journal. I have worked with clients who did this, using unique source codes for payroll journals, month- and year-end adjustments and for journals integrated to the system from other line of business systems; I had a few clients in social housing who integrated journals from the rents system with a source code of “RLI” (Rent Ledger Interface).

Using different source codes for each general journal template (with similar functionality available for item and fixed asset journal templates) you can improve traceability of batches as the source code is easily available to reporting tools like Jet Reports.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Create Generative Actions In Cloud Flows

Thursday 12th Dec 2024Sunday 1st Dec 2024 Ian Grieve4 minute read0 comment

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 13th of the new functionality in the Cloud flows section is create generative actions in cloud flows.

Instead of building out complex rules-based processes from beginning to end, you work with AI to inject intelligent activity orchestration from your cloud flow. You create intent-based generative actions where the large language model (LLM) considers all the resources available to it and dynamically selects the most appropriate actions and sequence of these actions to achieve the desired outcome. This allows for more dynamic automation and saves you time.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Dec 2024
General Availability: Apr 2025

Feature Details

Generative actions use generative AI reason over unstructured content and determine what steps and sequences it needs to achieve a process outcome based on instructions and parameters provided by you in natural language.

Building a generative action within cloud flows involves the following steps:

Describe the objective of your process in natural language, and let AI develop an automation plan to achieve it.
Refine the automation plan generated by the large language model (LLM) and adjust inputs, outputs, and variables as needed.
Add reference sources and guidelines in natural language that influence the LLM as it executes the flow.
Validate the intelligent action by reviewing how it is achieving the business objective prior to moving the flow into production.
Review production run history, analytics, and individual flow run details to ensure your process is performing to expectations.

The ability of generative actions to easily incorporate both structured and unstructured data makes it flexible as information resources are updated. Its reasoning abilities make generative actions uniquely beneficial in the building and maintenance of complex process flows to handle conditions, exception management, and process loops.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Use Your Own Key To Encrypt Data At-Rest For Environments

Thursday 12th Dec 2024Sunday 1st Dec 2024 Ian Grieve2 minute read0 comment

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 12th of the new functionality in the Cloud flows section is use your own key to encrypt data at-rest for environments.

This capability allows customers in regulated industries and regions to meet their data protection, privacy, compliance, and security requirements and policies.

Enabled for: Users by admins, makers, or analysts
Public Preview: –
General Availability: Nov 2024

Feature Details

Use your own encryption key from your Azure Key Vault to protect an environment’s data at-rest including existing Power Automate flows in the environment.

When the admin applies the CMK (customer-managed keys) Enterprise Policy to protect an environment from the Power Platform admin center, Power Automate protects existing flows in the environment. Also, new flows created in the environment are automatically protected for CMK.

With this feature, Power Automate fully supports CMK, enabling customers to leverage low-code assets that utilize Power Automate while meeting their policy requirements.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Recommendations To Reassign Orphaned Cloud Flows

Wednesday 11th Dec 2024Sunday 1st Dec 2024 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 11th of the new functionality in the Cloud flows section is recommendations to reassign orphaned cloud flows.

Today, admins have difficulty finding and reassigning orphaned flows, and changing flows is done individually. This feature gives admins more visibility and lower risk through active management of their automation estate.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Jan 2025
General Availability: –

Feature Details

With this feature, admins can more easily manage their automation estate with recommendations to show a list of orphaned flows that are owned by a user who is no longer with the company. Admins can view information like the name of the last owner and the number of days since the flow last ran within the recommendation list in Power Platform admin center. They can then quickly perform simple actions like reassignment to another owner or turning off the flow.

My Opinion

This sounds like a good enhancement for sites with a lot of flows.
