Make A Better First Impression With Visitor Sign In App (PowerApps)

Hello Readers

This is a quick blog to let you know about my give away app. This app will help you in the following:

  1. Tracking visits to specific centre facility
  2. Creating Visitors
  3. Create Visits on your mobile and get rid of your notebook
  4. Market membership and other services to visitors based on visit trends

You no longer need to print or file papers for a visitors sign in or entry. You can even extend it to a level that employees can be informed of the visitor.

Bug! Bug ! Bug ! Can’t resolve a case

Hello Readers

We found a major issue with Unified Interface Business Process Flows. Don’t know if it can be termed as a Bug, but had to make the title catchy 😀

Description- Following are the details:

  • BPF Name: Phone to Case Process
  • Stage: Resolve
  • Field: Resolve Case (Clicking this field opens the case resolution form)
  • Field Values: Mark Complete and Closed

Web Client/Classic UI Behaviour

Following screenshot is from classic UI

Clicking on ‘Resolve Case’ opens the case resolution form, as shown below:

Unified Interface Behaviour

All fields on BPF appear except for ‘Resolve case’ which means you have to the “RESOLVE CASE” button on ribbon.

Alternative: Create a custom field, option set or two options until Microsoft fixes this issue. Trigger the “RESOLVE CASE” button action on change of your custom field.

Note: I did read Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement Readme But it talks about limitations of Action Steps of BPF and not Data Steps of BPF.

Hope Microsoft will fix it soon.

Happy CRMing!!
