How Do I Deploy a Dynamics 365 Integrated Trial Environment? – Step -by-Step Guide
R

This blog is my contribution to the Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply chain management & Power Platform community. Having worked with Axapta / Dynamics AX / D365 F&O for 18 years out of my 21 years of career in application development and ERP. I'm passionate about Dynamics 365 ERP, Power Platform & Azure integrations 💡. However, I tend to always look forward. So I mostly write about current subjects.

My aim is that my deep thought may inspire some of you and provoke some new thoughts in the interest of our community.

Please note, that the views expressed in this blog are mine alone and do not necessarily reflect the view of my employer.

The challenge is: what is it?

Keeping up-to-date with the latest & greatest features of Dynamics 365 family products is essential in today's fast-paced technological landscape.

The other day, I revisited my programming journal, only to discover several new features, updates, and changes I hadn't seen before. Simply to stay current, I had to revisit new features of Dynamics 365 Project Operations and some features of Dynamics 365 FO.

At work, I am often required to use new frameworks or features. Although I concentrate on learning new Dynamics 365 Project Operations features, I might still feel that I am missing the full picture of Dynamics 365 Finance business processes. In some cases, it's frustrating not to have a dedicated, managed or trial-integrated Dynamics 365 Project Operations or any apps of Dynamics 365 and Dynamics 365 FO environment, so you can see how everything works together.

What is the most effective way to deploy your learning environment for 1-month?

Here are the steps we need to take

Step 1: Search for the right URL

You can easily find the Dynamics 365 Project Operations trial link by searching the below keyword using BING.com

OR

Navigate to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/project-operations/environment/admin-trials

Step 2: Sign up for Project Operations Trial

Step 3: Let's get you started

Fill out the email address

Step 4: Tell us about yourself

Fill out the required fields

Step 5: Sign-in Information

Enter the domain name and click on Next

Step 6: Confirm the details, before getting started

Click on Get started

Step 7: Select the Project Operations Scope

Step 8: Select the option to deploy Project Operations

In my case, I would like to utilize end-to-end project management and accounting capabilities but in your case, it might be lite deployment or resource/non-stock scenarios

Step 9: Getting things ready for you

Step 10: Validate deployed environments

Step 11: Install Dynamics 365 Project Operations Apps

Navigate to Power Platform Admin center -> Select resource -> Dynamics 365 Apps -> Install apps

Select Microsoft Dynamics 365 Project Operations and click on Next

Step 12: Verify and apply the Dual-write maps solution

Navigate to the Data management workspace

Click on Dual write Tile

Click on Apply solution

Select the respective solution to enable the Data sync and Click on Apply

Conclusion

By using this Dynamics 365 app and Dynamics 365 FO Trial environment, you can learn endlessly.

Hi Rakesh,

Thank you sharing this article. I did follow your steps for the deployment of a resource/non-stocked environment, and I couldn't manage to sync dual-write in Data Management. As this is a trial environment (F&O and CE), I am wondering if I am missing some steps regarding the enablement and deployment of dual-write before jumping to Data Management and run the sync. do you have any article or link how to enable dual-write under a trial environment model for project ops? Thank you !

Hello Sebastian, please refer to step no 12 to deploy the solution which enables maps.

Do let me know if this resolves your issue.

Happy to connect with you through LinkedIn to understand the issue.thank you!
