Project Service Automation application is not displayed in the sandbox Dynamics 365 environment.
So far I have installed the Project Service Automation application via enabling it on the applications screen in the Dynamics 365 admin screen.
Have I missed a step to enable the application?
Additionally the Project Service Automation roles and solutions have not been added to the Dynamics CRM instance.
Once you click Install option of PSA solution for your CRM instance in O365 admin center, the status will turn into 'Installation Pending'. It may take a while to install the components in CRM & status changed into 'Installed' Read this for detailed steps
Make sure to complete the prerequisite configurations to finish the setup.

I realize that Omnichannel is currently only associated with the Customer Service module for 365. However we have had a request from a client to provide Omnichannel for a sales process on a web site which links into a sales CE 365 organization (so in other words an agent to guide the user through the sales process via a chat if need be).
Is it possible to add in the Omnichannel module for sales in any way and if not any sort of alternate solutions we could follow for this requirement?
No, Omnichannel is built on top of Customer Service so having this first-party app installed is a requirement detailed in the documentation. I recommend you to contact your MS Account Manager and discuss this topic with them as depending on your requirements you might also need Power BI/Customer Voice/Power Virtual Agent licenses as well so maybe it's worth to explore some cross-application licensing.
There're alternative solutions in AppSource like CafeX LiveAssist and a few others, please make sure you filter by application to make sure they will work with Sales.
I'm trying to study for the MB-200 exam and I'm using the Microsoft Learn resource to study. I'm currently working through the Apply goal management to Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Customer Engagement. In the Exercise - Measuring customer success using goals it says:
In your Dynamics 365 Instance, go to Settings > Data Management.
I don't have an instance of Dynamics 365.
So my question is, is there a ready-made sandbox environment where everything is already setup, with the correct licenses and roles and security applied?
If no such sandbox is available, does this means I have to learn how to configure a Dynamics 365 instance before I can attempt the MB-200 exam? As without a Dynamics 365 instance, it seems I can't do the exercises to study for MB-200.
Any pointers on how I should go about doing this will be greatly appreciated as I have tried creating a trial Dynamics 365 for Customer Service account, but it seems that is not enough, I need to configure licenses, and users, and roles before I can actually use the Customer Service app in Dynamics 365 trial.
It may be that I need to work towards a different exam before the MB-200 which helps me learn how to configure a Dynamics 365 instance. If that is the case, could someone please let me know which exam that is. Also, from the Microsoft Learn website, which learning path or module should I start to learn how to configure a Dynamics 365 instance for Customer Services before I can attempt the MB-200 exam? I can't seem to find a learning path or module for configuring a Dynamics 365 instance from the Microsoft Learn website which is obvious.
Its really easy to provision a trial here:
https://trials.dynamics.com/
You just need to provide a URL and username and password (write them down!), and you have a fully working instance of Dynamics - You might want to provision just the Customer Service First party app for this particular exam.
Make sure you click on 'Are you signing up on behalf of a customer or using this trial for development purposes?' link.
You'll have a pre-configured Customer Engagement portal for 30 days (you'll automatically have admin access), after which you have the option to purchase it or delete it - No credit card details are needed. In addition you may go to the envrironment page and add any additional modules you may need in addition to the base install.
Good luck in your exam.
I am not an expert but you should start from PL-900 which is most suitable for you as a beginer
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/paths/power-plat-fundamentals/
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/exams/pl-900
then you should go for pl-400 ( old name MB-400 )
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/certifications/exams/pl-400
Exam PL-400: Microsoft Power Platform Developer
there some awesome resource to learn theoretically or in some case they provide you sandbox as well after completing all those certifications then I suggest you pl-200 (old name MB-200)
here you can get a trial which will help you learn practically but there are so many things which you need professional license
https://trials.dynamics.com/
long story short dynamics 365 is a big platform that you can not learn just from trials or theoretical knowledge you have to do some internship or job to get a professional expericance which will help you to pass certifications.
Since Dynamics 365 version 9 upgrade, we have observed new workflows automatically created on CRM instance namely- ManageContractLineState, ManageContractState, ManageEntitlementState.
As I can see from the ManageEntitlementState workflow, it is to handle the status of entitlements in CRM. But earlier this was not done using CRM workflows.
Now each workflow instance will be running for each entitlement in our system which is a huge problem since it puts unnecessary load on our machine.
Is anyone else able to see these workflows on their instances? And why is MS adding these workflows?
October 2018 Release notes talks about deeper integration of entitlements between D365 offerings namely Field service & Sales (work order). There may be background automations happening to achieve this & Workflow is part of it.
Entitlement management
With this release, the Field Service application includes the ability to define entitlements and associate
them with work orders in field service scenarios. Entitlements help
service agents understand the service terms that customers are
eligible for.
This capability helps service organizations ensure
customers receive the appropriate on-site support that aligns with
their allowed entitlements, and that customers are charged according
to their negotiated terms.
I currently have a Marketo Sandbox that is configured to integrate with Salesforce.com.
I need to change this to a MS Dynamics CRM instance, but can't see how to do this.
I don't need to retain the existing Salesforce configuration at all.
Is there anyway to do this?
Once you configure a Marketo sandbox to sync with a CRM organization (SFDC or MSCRM) you can't change that configuration, they are basically paired for life.
Per the Marketo Documentation Enable Sync-> Step 2.
Warning: Once Marketo and CRM are synced, there is no switching allowed to any another[sic] CRM subscription
If you open a support ticket Marketo will be able to "reset" the org so that you can connect the new Marketo sandbox to MSCRM instead.
Note that you'll run into the same issue if you end up wanting to point to another MSCRM org, or even if you are using MSCRM sandboxes and reset your MSCRM sandbox.
How do I delete and create a new instance on Dynamics CRM Online 2016 with a clean set of Users?
Our organisation has Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online internal use rights (IUR) benefit for MPN members with 15 licences. This gives us a Production and a Sandbox licence to use.
I have assigned 10 license.
When I delete and recreate either the Sandbox or Production instance I get my 10 users I expect, but then I also have 4 additional users which I think came from an earlier on premise version of CRM we were trialing.
The Full name either has a # symbol at the beginning or the end of their name.
These other 4 users do not consume a licence but are listed under the enabled users. I can't disable them or seem to get rid of them.
How can I completely reset my Dynamics CRM Online 2016 instances?
Deleting them and recreating them just seems to always create the same set of users.
The issue was due to the users being assigned the role of "Global Administrator" in Office 365.
Any users marked with the role of "Global Administrator" will be automatically included in your Dynamics CRM Online users. Even if they are not assigned a Dynamics CRM Online licence.
The good news is that they do not consume a CRM licence. The bad new is that they are always active in the list.
