New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2: Start Creating Power Automate Flows With Copilot

Ian Grieve5 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 2.

The 10th of the new functionality in the Copilot and AI innovation section is start creating Power Automate flows with Copilot.

Copilot is the AI-powered work assistant that boosts creativity and improves productivity for small and medium-sized organizations.

Building Power Automate flows without predefined templates can be a mundane and complicated process. With Copilot in Power Automate, this process is much smoother because flows can be built based on just the natural language input from the user.

Enabled for: Users, automatically
Public Preview: Dec 2024
General Availability: –

Feature Details

This feature integrates Copilot in Power Automate with Business Central so that you can start creating automation flows based on natural language. When such flows are opened in Power Automate for further refinement, you can take advantage of the Copilot experience in Power Automate.

Copilot in Power Automate allows open-ended and conversational experiences while authoring flows that use your Business Central data. You can ask questions and get assistance to improve and change those flows. Copilot stays with you in your flow and helps you build, set up, and run an automation on your behalf through a comfortable chat experience. Copilot takes your input and provides either documentation, links, or answers in the Copilot chat pane. But most importantly, it makes changes to the structure of the flow based on your natural language description.

This feature helps you streamline business processes and improve productivity by shortening the path to automation.

note Note

  • This feature will be made available later in 2024 release wave 1 as a production-ready preview for production and sandbox environments based on the English language in the US region.
  • Production-ready previews are subject to supplemental terms of use. For more information, see Supplemental terms of use for Dynamics 365 preview.
  • While in preview, this feature is available in English only. When using other languages, users must change their language in the My Settings page to experience this feature.
  • This feature needs to be enabled in Feature Management.
  • AI-generated content may be incorrect.

My Opinion

I have never had much success with Copilots in Business Central or Power Automate, so I struggle to get excited about announcements of improvements. I’d be interested in hearing from anyone who has used them to success.

In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate Actions), how do I… Use the “Update Record V3” Action

Ian Grieve2 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis article is part of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate Actions), how do I… series, a sub-series of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate), 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.

There are a number of actions available in Power Automate for Business Central which allow specific actions against the data of Business Central to be performed from within Power Automate.

The 5th action which is available is the Update record (V3) one which allows existing records to be updated.

Within a flow, click the add action button; search for Business Central and select the Business Central icon (make sure you select the SaaS one, which is a dark colour instead of the on-premises one which is mainly white):

Choose an action dialog with Business Central in the search results

There are a number of actions available in Power Automate for Business Central which allow specific actions against the data of Business Central to be performed from within Power Automate.

The 4th action which is available is the Find one record (V3) one which will allow you to search for and return a single record. Previously, if you didn’t have the row Id you needed to use Find recods V3 to search for the records, although you could add a top 1 to limit the return, you still had to manage the return as if there were multiple records; as of the 2024 Wave 1 release, this Find one record V3 action has been made available; the returned data is much simpler to handle, being more along the lines of that returned by the Get record V3 action.

Within a flow, click the add action button; search for Business Central and select the Business Central icon (make sure you select the SaaS one, which is a dark colour instead of the on-premises one which is mainly white):

Working with Power Automate: Calculate 30 Days Ago

Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

Power AutomateThis article is part of the Working with Power Automate series I am writing on my experiences working with the Power Automate, which is part of the Power Platform from Microsoft. I also have a related series of articles on Power Automate with Microsoft Dynamics 365 BC.

I was working on a flow a while ago and was using the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central “Find record V3” action and needed to select invoices posted over 30 days ago. To do this I needed to calculate the date 30 days before the present date.

I did some digging and found the required function, which, somewhat counter-intuitively, is called addDays:

Expression showing the entered function to calculate 30 days ago

The function requires three parameters:

  1. timestamp – date to base the calculation on; I used the function utcNow() to get current date/time.
  2. days – the number of days to add or, if a negative number, the number of days to subtract
  3. format – format for the date, which I always use the ISO date format for as this ensures that both UK and US date systens will correctly compare (UK uses dd-MM-yyyy whereas the US uses MM-dd-yyyy).
addDays(utcNow(), -30, 'yyyy-MM-dd')

The expression returns the current date minus 30 allowing me to use this in the filter to only selected invoices older than this date.

In the “For a selected Record V3” Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Trigger in Power Automate, the Record URL is Avalable Without Using “Get url V3” Action

Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralI am writing a few related series at the moment, includong In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate Actions), how do I… which is a sub-series of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Power Automate), 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.

Yesterday, I posted at article about using the Get url (V3) action, but realised after posting that the URL for the record from the trigger is available without using this action.

I’m not sure if this is new or if I’ve previously just missed that it was there. In the Dynamic content[/b] available to actions for the For a selected record (V3) trigger:

Get url v3 dynamic content showing the Web Client URL content

This means that for this trigger type, if you want a drill down to the record in the trigger, then you an just use this dynamic content instead of having to use the Get url V3 action.

New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Scale Faster With Process Mining Thin Client App

Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

Power AutomateThis 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 1st of the new functionality in the Process mining section is scale faster with Process Mining thin client app.

The current Power Automate Process Mining app requires you to download the process model to the client computer. This download puts specific requirements on the hardware resources on the client computer. To unblock your resources, you can use the Azure Process Intelligence Analytic Service instead. With this service, you can use a lightweight desktop app with a process intelligence engine without the need to download the process model. The functionality of the thin desktop application offers features that are identical to the previous full desktop app. This allows you to scale faster, it supports larger process models, and doesn’t put specific requirements on your computers.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Sep 2024
General Availability: Nov 2024

Feature Details

Process Intelligence Analytic Service offers analytical functions in the form of an Azure API. When the desktop application connects to Process Intelligence Analytic Service, you have access to the identical functionality as in the full Power Automate Process Mining desktop app.

With Power Automate Process Mining thin client app, there’s no need to:

  • Download the process model, which takes up your resources.
  • Fulfill special hardware requirements when working with large process models.
  • Install desktop application updates in case of analytical operation modifications.
