LCS is connected to DevOps for project management reasons. You choose your DevOps site URL and a project.

Now this experience is changing with the Unified Development Experience.

Set up technical support for finance and operations apps - Finance & Operations | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn

LCS has it's own security roles like Project Manager etc whereas DevOps has it's own security roles.

Thanks Sohaib for the response.

I go through the link which you shared for the configuration part LCS with Azure DevOps

As you said " LCS is connected to DevOps for project management reasons".

1. Could you please explain me about Project management.

Where and what needs to fill project management details is LCS.

2. Is "Project management" is the only reason to connect with LCS with Azure DevOps?

Kindly explain pls.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @CU05031448-0,

1. When we talk about "Project Management" in the context of LCS + Azure DevOps, we're mostly referring to how work items, tasks, sprints, and customizations are tracked and managed during an implementation or support project.

2. No, it’s not the only reason. Integration serves multiple purposes like Build Automation, ALM, packages, release pipeline, testing ...

Best regards,

Mohamed Amine MAHMOUDI

LCS is the portal where you manage the entire implementation from the moment you purchase a Dynamics 365 Finance or SCM license, up to Go-Live. This portal give access and an overview to the Customer, the partner and Microsoft on:

Project onboarding

Where your data is hosted (Region)

The project timeline (Milestones)

The number of environments

License information

Link an Azure subscription to deploy a Cloud hosted environment

More on the on here ... Lifecycle Services resources

Azure DevOps, connected with LCS helps with setting up a CHE like I have already mentioned, configure build pipelines and automations like @Mohamed Amine Mahmoudi highlighted.

Set up new environments, Azure DevOps, and branches for projects

Set up Azure DevOps code sharing and create a build pipeline
