    That blog is about Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (formerly known as Dynamics CRM) so it's not applicable to Dynamics AX or Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations.

    Hi Thanh,

    After the upgrade, some actions will inherit the old version.

    I know the field Limits in Dynamics 365.

    To get more information ,you can refer:

    I don't remember a specific rule as such.

    As a General guideline, it is recommended to Keep minimal number of columns in grid control, and move the rest to groups. (just remember this, and it will serve you well.

    This is because, grid loads all the columns for as many rows that are fetched by the datasource query.

    But the groups only display fields of the active record.

    If you take into consideration, a standard table (eg: SalesTable), you have a good mix of grids and groups, with quite a lot of fields. Try testing with more fields in the grid/groups and observe the performance.
