Why do I need to refresh the timeline in the customer service workspace app when changing tabs

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 107

Timelines of cases, accounts and contacts are no longer refreshed when you go to a new tab, or open a new entity in the same session.

Example: Open an account, in the account window, click on a contact: a new tab opens. When you go to that tab and return to the account, the timeline of your account will be empty (it mentions "Get started Capture and manage all records in your timeline") > workaround is to click on the refresh button and you will see the details in your timeline again.

This behavior started last week and occurs only in the customer service workspace app. Agents working with the customer service hub do not have that problem.

    Please consider raising a ticket with Microsoft support. My users are also experiencing this same issue, it does not seem to happen for system administrators and I think is probably a bug.

    Edit - Domi Walker Microsoft support have acknowledged this is a bug and said a fix for my region is being rolled out starting 26th May

    Hi Domi Walker,

    I tried testing with basic user and system administrator privileges and none of the above issues occurred, it refreshes normally.

    But a similar problem has occurred in a past update, so I think you can raise a support ticket with Microsoft: 

    https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/support

    Until the problem is solved, you can use JS to refresh the timeline: https://xrmdynamicscrm.wordpress.com/2020/07/04/dynamics-365-refresh-timeline-using-javascript/
