Wrote a #PowerBI dashboard for a client. The guy I wrote it for was sacked shortly after for… reasons Today I got a support ticket. The company they have hired to write the same dashboard (that they clearly don’t know they have) need me to explain the relations between tables in #MSDyn365BC

You can’t have negative fixed assets anymore in #MSDyn365BC can you? Despite what Magnus says here bc365.co/2022/08/27/f...

Any Power Query nerds here? I’ve got some VBA looking up a file path into a named range in my excel workbook I want to use that file path as the data source for my main query The idea is that the user searches for the file, hits refresh and PQ returns the nice clean data in a new tab Any ideas?

Father’s Day card featured pictures of my favourite activities but there was no excel spreadsheet. It’s like they don’t know me at all.

Ongoing chat in the Dynamics team at work about just how shit Copilot in #MSDyn365BC is and how AI in general has just made our jobs much harder.

Why in the name of all that’s holy is there no way for a non-dev to add a Send Approval Request button to the Project G/L Journal page (1020) in #MSDyn365BC???? Why is it not there by default in the first place? Aaaaahhhhh!!!!

If you write garbage and need AI to tidy it up, how will you know it’s not made your garbage more garbagey if all you can write is garbage?

Each month the #MSDyn365BC consultant team meet for skills-sharing. We prep something a feature and present to the group. Or we troubleshoot an issue one of us is struggling with. Yesterday this cropped up. Most of us had never heard of it. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynami...

Data Exchange Definitions in #MSDyn365BC are a bit of a nightmare. I’m struggling to render a date dd/MM/yyyy. And I cannot for the life of me work out how to insert a column that comprises of 14 spaces The internet is coming up blank and the MS documentation is sparse to say the least.
