Create Financial Reporting App - Dynamics 365 for Finance & Operations LBD

Hi LBD enthusiastic,

here I'm sharing the steps that we need to follow in order to install manually the Financial Reporting App.
Walk through the MR Node and follow those steps:
  1. If present with error, delete the FR app from the Fabric or run the following command with 3 parameters:
    \\fileserver\Agent\wp\Environment\StandaloneSetup-xxxxxx\Apps\FR\Deployment\FinancialReportingDeployer.exe \\fileserver\Agent\wp\Environment\StandaloneSetup-xxxxxx\\config.json \\fileserver\Agent\wp\Environment\StandaloneSetup-xxxxxx Cleanup
  2. If needed, remove also the FR Database (take a backup first) and configure it again. About the installation, go through the link https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/dev-itpro/deployment/setup-deploy-on-premises-pu12#configure-the-financial-reporting-database
  3. Install the FR App:
    \\fileserver\Agent\wp\Environment\StandaloneSetup-xxxxxx\Apps\FR\Deployment\FinancialReportingDeployer.exe \\fileserver\Agent\wp\Environment\StandaloneSetup-xxxxxx\config.json \\fileserver\Agent\wp\Environment\StandaloneSetup-xxxxxx Setup

Thank you also to Uwe Zimmermann, MS LBD guru.

Till now!

Robotic process automation (RPA) Overview - Dynamics 365 for Finance & Operations

Hi guys,

again happy Christmas!

In those "holidays" days, I play around with UI Flows!

Here the public link Intuitive robotic process automation that works for you

You are able to automate several tasks, also with the standard connectors.

Last but not least, we can use UI Flow in the our Test Automation journey in combination with RSAT.

Through UI Flow, you can create a Desktop or Web App (browser application like F&O, CE, etc.) recording.



With UI Flow we can automate several day by day activities but also use with RSAT in order to trigger messages from and to external systems!

That said, we will be able to handle an end to end test without any manual interaction.

Here some useful links:

In the next post, I'll describe how to create a F&O recorder!
