Managing power automate workflows across multiple companies single environment

Posted on by 55

Hello, 

Is it possible to centrally manage the power automate workflows for all companies (single environment)?

I.e. I have 70 companies which would all require document approval workflow via power automate. The default Power Automate Business central related components require to specify a company (mandatory field). This would mean setting up 70 workflows for a single type of approval? If a change is required, this must be done 70x times?

There must be a simpler way to achieve this. Any ideas how to deal with multiple companies, centrally managed?

    My understanding of the available videos is that every power automate component now requires 'company'. Did you see anything which could help the cross-company scenario?

    Hi, just adding some info.

     If 70 companies are in the same tenant and you are using “For a selected record (V3)” trigger, it may be possible now. More details: https://yzhums.com/25646/

    In other cases, please follow the new features mentioned by Inge.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.
