Hi All,

I am a newbie and learning Dynamics 365.

Under Administration area, new announcements can be created using Announcements sub area.

It says the following:

"Announcements

Create, edit, and delete announcements that appear in the Workplace area."

I created a new announcement & all worked fine.

But... where to see this new announcement at user level? I can't seem to find WORKPLACE area ??

After a little research, I found someone advising to change site_map to include WORKPLACE area... so I installed XRM TOOLs and browsed through the site_map using site_map editor, however, I couldn't find any area named WORKPLACE and if I am supposed to add the missing AREA then how do I know what URLs to add.

Further research revealed to me that MS has phased out this particular area i.e. workplace... Is it true? if yes, then where and how to look for 'announcements'? Does this imply that MS would phase out announcement feature also?

I AM CONFUSED?

Thanks

Noor

Thanks Francesco for letting me know that it's a depreciated functionality so I don't need to bother much...

Please also let me know if there's a place where I can validate if any functionality / feature is depreciated so I don't need to ask unnecessary questions here.

Thanks once again,
