Financial Dimensions in Retail Stores and payment methods in D365 Commerce and Retail
Overview: As we are aware that Financial Dimensions are available for user to identify the posting routine of payments, sales, purchases etc in the ledger account. These values are selectable / mandatory at all checkpoints on D365 FNO. However, in retail we would have to configure the financial dimensions in Retail Store or Payment Methods of retail store. This will help user to identify the posting routine with details of the transaction. If financial dimensions are not mapped then posting will happen but it will be posted as entry without dimensions as below images. Without Financial Dimensions: With Financial Dimensions: To configure Financial Dimensions: Payment Methods: Goto Retail and Commerce > Channels > Stores In Action Tab > Set Up > Payment Methods Select Desired Payment method and in details tab you can find Financial Dimensions 2. Stores: Goto Retail and Commerce > Channels > Stores And select desired store that you want to set the default dimensions on the bottom as shown in the image. (Note: Enabling this will overwrite the Financial Dimensions that were enabled on payment methods as this will be set as Default Dimensions for all types of transactions.) Thanks! Hope this was helpful!

Item Master Data Mass uploading via Data Management in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations
Item Master Data Mass uploading via Data Management In the world of data management, it has become essential that the business users are provided solution for mass data uploading. Where the data is managed by very less expert users who’re required to upload and download data in bulk at very less given time. Today I am going to show you the way to upload Item Master Data quickly and with no errors via Data Management in MS Dynamics Commerce and Retail. Note: Masters as Item group, tax codes, units, category, item model group etc should be pre-configured or created for this to work accurately otherwise this operation will fail with errors as the masters are not created/configured. For this operation to work first we need to identify the fields that are required to do two steps. First, Item Master Creation Secondly, Item Master release in released products. So now to identify the necessary “importable” fields first we will export the required fields in excel as below. Goto Workspaces> Data Management and in Data Management click Export Button. Upon Clicking “export” create project as data filled in below. Desired Project name in my case I have named it “product master fields” Generate Data package to be set as No. Now when project is created click on “add entity” Select entity as “Released product creation V2” or anything as “Released product creation” whichever is latest according to your version of D365. Select output as “EXCEL”. Use sample file and skip staging to be set as NO. Very important step to select fields to be set as “Importable Fields” And “add” the entity to the project. Now again click on “add Entity”, select the rest of the fields as mentioned in pt. II., and select “released products V2) in entity name and click on add. Now click on export button as below Now on export screen Click on “refresh” button until you see mark on thee screen, and then “download File” to obtain excel file. Note: click each project one by one to download table fields. After downloading file replace the data with required information that you want in your product master so that we can Import the Master data. (Note: You can hide fields that doesn’t require user to input any data but are required by AX this you will identify in released products format). Assuming that you have created your files for upload we will now continue with “Import” data, Goto Workspaces > Data Management and in Data Management click “Import” Button. Upon clicking “Import” create a project and add entity as below. Add group name, in my case added as “import Master Data” Now when project is created click on “add File” Select entity as “Released product creation V2” or anything as “Released product creation” whichever is latest according to your version of D365. Click the upload data file and select the appropriate file, in my case it is “Released product creation V2 – Format.xlsx” Select “Source data format” Click close. Now again click on “add File”, select the rest of the fields as mentioned in pt. VIII., and select “released products V2) in entity name and click on Close. After adding both the files, now its time to click on “import”, but first ensure that the sequence of the below files are as such 1st for Released Product Creation and 2nd for Released products. If this is not in sequence the above operation will fail. After Clicking on Import, you will have to click on refresh button until the come. Upon success you can see the validation message that the master data has been uploaded successfully and released the product for use. In my case I had uploaded a test product which got successfully uploaded to the system. Hope this helps!

Loyalty points unable earn or/and redeem in D365 Commerce(Retail)
At times you may come across issues such as database related error while trying to earn or redeem loyalty points. The way I was able to resolve it by restarting the IIS services from the life cycle services(Sandbox environment). You may need to do a full sync of retail jobs as well. In the production environment you may not have access to restart the IIS service. You may need to raise a Microsoft Support Ticket to resolve this. Before you try the above, please ensure that loyalty programs, tiers, rules are properly defined in back end HQ. Hope this helps!

Table Properties in Business Central
Introduction: In this blog, I will be addressing some of the Table properties in Microsoft Business Central. Pre-requisites: VS Code AL Language Extension Microsoft Dynamics NAV / Business Central Properties: 1. CharAllowed It sets which characters are allowed in the field. This property can be applied to Table and Page fields. Charalowed takes parameters in a combination of two characters as shown below, where characters “1 to 4 “, “7 to 9” and “a to d” are allowed. An example of this property is given below. Definition Error 2. DataPerCompany It sets whether the table data applies to all companies in the database or only the current company. The default value for this property is true. This property can only be applied to Tables. The User table is an example where Datapercompany is false. 3. DataCaptionFields Sets fields defined on the Top Left Position of the Card page. It can be applied in Table. Syntax: DataCaptionfields= Field1,Field2,Field3; In below example, I have used No, Name and Type fields for Caption. Definition Result 4. Enabled Sets a value that indicates whether a field is enabled or disabled. It can be applied to Page fields, Table fields, and Actions. In the below example, I have set Enabled Property to True on Name field, therefore Name is field is visible to users but it is not editable and it is displayed Gray in color making it less highlighted than other fields. Enable = False Hope this helps!

Unit Of Measure Issue in D365 Commerce (Retail)
When a product can be sold, purchased or stored in more than one unit of measure, it’s important that you set up the correct unit of measure conversions. I recently came across an issue where the unit of measure conversions I created in HQ was not showing up on POS. As you can see in the above image I kept receiving this error. Finally I fixed it after a lot of research and trials. The issue was very minor but it took a lot of time to detect it. Go to units and make sure the language selected in Translated unit descriptions is similar at store level and in workers form as well and then you should not face this issue Hope this helps!
