Hi All, I am new in D365, just 2 months old, so i am just struggling with things to do and to understand how everything works like entities, roles, portals, plugins, workflows and bluh bluh bluh.....
I am creating one project for learning "work shop management" and i will try my best to do all common operations in this small project what D365 developers do in their all project i know every project is different :)
i have following entities
1) WorkShop
2) WorkShopTypes ( IT, MEDICAL......)
3) User ( for all user whether trainer, student, trainer assistant, ROLEID would tell me whether it is student, trainer or train assistant)
4) Role ( Role would define user type)
5) Material ( material for workshop uploaded by trainer)
I am confused should i create all custom entities or can i use some OOB for this learning project? like i thought following
1) WorkShop (custom entity)
2) WorkShopTypes ( i can use PRODUCT OOB entity OR should i create custom entity)
3) User ( should i use CONTACT or USER OOB entity OR should i create custom entity)
4) Role ( should i create new roles for trainer, student and trainer assitant OR should i create custom entity)
5) Material ( custom entity)
Thank you
Thank you so much sir !!
Hi,
1) WorkShop (custom entity) - Yes
2) WorkShopTypes ( i can use PRODUCT OOB entity OR should i create custom entity) - Custom or a Global Option set on the Workshop entity
3) User ( should i use CONTACT or USER OOB entity OR should i create custom entity) - User is normally a person using the Dynamics 365 application. Student / Trainer attending the Work shop can be Contacts. Companies attending can be Accounts.
4) Role ( should i create new roles for trainer, student and trainer assitant OR should i create custom entity) - Copy the existing Sales Person security role and customize it.
5) Material ( custom entity) - Custom
Hope this helps.
