Plan a deployment Considerations

Consider who will be in the project team (Technical/Non-technical)

Will be a partner used?

SureStep Evolved methodology available for partners

Import Data Ways to import data

o Import Data Wizard Simple scenarios

o Programmatically using the SDK Will require development

o Third party tools o Data Loader Service

Cloud based service for moving data between files and D365 Online Part of LifeCycle Services for Dynamics Available as preview feature for North America Q1 2016

CRM 2011 On Premise and later can use the On-Premise to Online Conversion Service (private preview only)

o CRM database will be uploaded into a staging area in Microsoft Azure, where checks will be run to insure the customer organization is in a supported state before getting customizations, configuration data, and entity data migrated to Dynamics 365

Cannot restore database from On-Premise version

Planning the import o Consider how much legacy data to bring to D365 o Do not underestimate time to export, process and import data o When will be legacy data be cleansed?

Page 7: MB2-715 - fedejoussetManaged via Office 365 platform Also available in On Premise and partner hosted (also subscription-based model) Accessing Microsoft Dynamics D365 Online No installation

www.fedejousset.com

o Some records require special considerations (quotes con only be imported in a draft status for instance)

Manage Online Subscriptions

Sign-up for a Subscription D365 Online Subscriptions are managed through Microsoft Online Services

You can buy a subscription: o In the O365 Admin Portal o Converting a 30-day trial a paid subscription o Using a Volume Licensing agreement o Office 365 is not required to purchase D365 Online

To cancel a subscription contact billing support o Cancellation fees can be applied / Fees are waived if migrating to On-Premise o Data will be deleted 30 days after cancellation

To migrate to On-Premise contact technical support to arrange an export of DBA

Add-ons are purchased in the O365 Admin center

Additional products such as Flow and support are added as new subscriptions but additional instances and storage are added to an existing D365 subscription

Manage users D365 users are managed in O365

To add a user: Create an account for the user, add a D365 license to the user account, assign security role(s) to the D365 user

Enable and disabling a user is performed in the O365 portal (not in D365)

Users can not be deleted

Users can be marked as non-interactive o Can be used for programmatic access to D365 o Do not require a license o Five non-interactive user can be created per instance

User account synchronization Users of D365 Online must have O365 accounts. These are different from accounts used on

company network

To reduce account administration: o Synchronize Active Directory with O365

User logs on to their on-premise environment using domain\user User logs on O365 using [email protected] Synchronization keeps the user credentials the same in both environments

Page 8: MB2-715 - fedejoussetManaged via Office 365 platform Also available in On Premise and partner hosted (also subscription-based model) Accessing Microsoft Dynamics D365 Online No installation

www.fedejousset.com

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/connect/active-directory-aadconnectsync-implement-password-synchronization

o Use Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) A single account (AD) is used for on-premise network and O365 User logs on to their on-premise environment using domain\user For O365 user is logged in automatically (SSO) or logs using domain\user

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/gg334502.aspx

Microsoft Online Services administrator roles Online Services administrator roles apply to management of subscriptions (not D365)

Administrative roles: o Global Administrator o Customized Administrator

Billing Admin Exchange Admin Password Admin Service Admin SharePoint Admin User Management Admin

O365 Global Admins/Service Admins are added to D365 with System Administrator role

Instance can be for Production or Non-Production (Sandbox) purpose

Instance properties o Name o URL o Purpose (for reference, it’s displayed only in the O365 Admin Portal) o Instance Type (Production/Sandbox) o Security Group (determines which users have access to an instance, if a group is not

specified all users with D365 licenses are added to the instance)

Administer instances Actions that can be performed on instances

o Switch From Production to Sandbox / Sandbox to Production Depends on available licenses

o Reset This deletes the instances and creates a new one (all data is deleted) Only Sandbox instanced can be reseted (delete all data)

o Delete Sandbox instances can be deleted Storage and license become available

o Administration Mode Sandbox instances only Only System Administrator or System Customizer role can sign in Background operations can be disabled

Multiple tenant o Consider this scenario for differing geographical or departmental needs o Each tenant is managed separately o Licensed users can only access instances in the same tenant o Licenses and subscriptions cannot be shared o A tenant can only be federated with one on-premises AD

Manage Storage Each subscription has a storage limit that applies across all instances

Notifications are sent when the limit is reached and at a threshold (80%)

If the limit is reached new records cannot be created

Manage Administrative Email Notifications Service email notifications are sent to D365 administrators

Additional recipients can be added at the instance level

Manage D365 Online Updates

Update Policy New features are delivered for Dynamics 365 twice a year

Customers are not required to take all updates

Updates will not be applied unless a customer approves it for each instance

Customers may skip updates depending on the version of the instance

At some stage, it will become mandatory to update an instance

After an update is scheduled, emails are going to be send prior, during and after the update https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/admin/manage-updates

Customer Driven Upgrade Process Updates are approved at the instance level

It’s possible to approve or reschedule updates using the D365 Online Administration Center

Consider using a Sandbox instance first to test that everything is working after the update

Skipping updates in some scenarios is possible (not recommended though)
