I am customizing out of the box form PayrollWorkspace in D365 in which I want to add the progress bar for the following steps.

1) Generating an earning statement.

2) Release earning statement.

3) Generate a pay statement.

4) Posting a pay statement.

I want to show the progress bar for each of the following steps. I go through the multiple articles but I am confused about how to achieve this in D365FO, please guide. Also, a progress bar should be something like this. Thanks.

Hi Bilal170795

As explained by several experts, the Process bar control does not exist.

As I shared the link with you, the Process Busy Indicator is used which will display the elapsed time.

The usual approach in F&O is just showing the "Processing operation" window. Wouldn't it be sufficient in your case too?

As mentioned above:

1) There's no progress bar control available in D365FO

2) In Data management projects there's a progress indicator which is updated when a refresh button is clicked (but not automatically). You can check if that would suit your requirement and look how it's implemented.

Hi Bilal,

The progress indicator has not been used in Dynamics 365 F&O. You can have a look at e.g. the Data management execution summary form where the status is presented and can be updated with a manual Refresh button. Probably, you can implement a similar experience for your requirement.

RE: How to show the progress bar on form D365.

I think there's no possibility to show such info in D365FO. In AX2012 you could use startLengthyOperation() and endLengthyOperation but that doesn't work in D365 F&O.

What would be the additional value in showing a progress bar?

For long running actions it's recommended to run them in batch (=in background) if possible.
