Data visualization through tools like PowerBI is now critical. You need to see how your business is running, and understand the dials to move for best performance. Dashboards are only as good as the data behind them. In this session, we’ll show you how you can mistakenly create what appears to be a useful dashboard in Excel or PowerBI, but isn’t relevant due to poor data management.  We will then walk you through best practices and tools for effective data organization and governance processes, so you can ensure you will walk away with accurate dashboards that will drive stellar results.

Configuring a Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations system requires settings on hundreds of forms. In this session, we look at how you can use data management to streamline the setup of a new system with spreadsheets. Once you have these spreadsheets, they can be used to guide you through the setup in an orderly fashion.

This type of configuration is not without challenges, including the format of the data, number of spreadsheets required, the order to run the sheets. Laura has been fully configuring systems since AX2012 with spreadsheets for 7 years and will walk you through the challenges and ways to overcome them.

Do you have multiple companies? Should you use copy company or some other methodology? Let’s look at the pros and cons of copy company vs. rerunning the same spreadsheets into the new company (ies).

Once you’ve configured you have to migrate data. Some of the challenges with data migration are similar but there are also unique challenges as well. Next we talk about the differences between configuration and data migration and how you use the data management framework differently for data migration. Customers and vendors have some real challenges to be able to load this data and then update it if addresses or other information changes. There are some techniques that can be used to guarantee updates are possible without having to look up record ids, party numbers, or address/location ids. 

Learning Objectives:

•Understand the challenges with loading many data entities at once and ways to overcome those challenges
•Using Excel to help build the data to be loaded
•Knowing what to migrate from legacy systems and key data entities that will be required
•Steps to validate data
•What to do when you make a mistake and all that bad data is in your system

Audience: Functional and Technical staff responsible for configuring D365 Finance and Operations and loading data from other systems

Level: Intermediate

Prerequisite: Basic knowledge of data management framework required

Preparation: Please bring your own internet capable Windows PC to class for the hands on lab portion/class exercises.

How do you expand reporting when your GP SQL server is overloaded? Set up a new server…isnt that costly?  What if it was less than $100/month? Don’t we need a SQL DBA? No, with Azure Data Factory it’s easy for a business analyst with intermediate SQL skills to copy tables, transform data, and build sophisticated workflows. Power Platform offers similar capabilities, but you might need a full database where you can build views and stored procedures.
