CRM 365 - Project Service Automation Demo Data - Multiple Instances

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hey guys and girls,

i have a question about my small Office365 CRM (online)-Setup.

I am using two instances of CRM - one "productive", one "sandbox".

The "productive"-instance has already a few data in it and the sandbox is still emtpy. Both have the Project Service Automation App enabled.

Now i want to install some Project Service Automation demo-data into the sandbox and there is a package for that from Microsoft.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics/crm-customer-center/use-demo-data-project-service-automation.aspx

I found some PackageDeployer-Youtube-Videos and i haven't seen an option to choose the CRM-instance for the data deployment.

Now i am a bit afraid, that the Project Service Automation demo-data installer (PackageDeployer) will simply override my "productive"-data, instead of importing everything into my sandbox.

Do you people know something about this?

Thank in advance :-)

    Hey,

     as far as I can see, it will ask you for the organization name if you do this (step 3.c under "Run the package"):

     Make sure Display list of available organizations is checked 

    PS. No guarantees:) It's just what that option is for in all other Dynamics tools where it's possible to select different organizations

    This is the same package deployer I often use for moving my usd config. Step 3c will display a list of organisations you can then select the required instance.

    One warning if you miss selecting this option the default instance would be used. Which is typically production. So double check you select it!
