Past Meetings

Using the Scrum framework to manage a Dynamics 365 deployment requires a fresh approach to estimating and planning your project. In this session, Neil Benson will outline his six step process to agile estimating and planning that he uses on his Dynamics 365 projects.

The high-level steps are:

1. Determine user roles and primary goals
2. Describe the epics for each user role
3. Estimate the epics
4. Estimate the team’s velocity
5. Prioritise the epics into releases
6. Examine the total release plan

 We’ll dive into these steps in the session using an example project so that you can see how to apply them in practice.

There are as many development techniques as there are developers, and there are just as many tools and frameworks that can make or break your process.

In this session, Jonas will show a few development techniques and community tools that will get you up to speed for efficient development for the Dynamics 365 platform, with the primary focus being on C# and Customer Engagement (CRM).

·         Visual Studio extensions

·         C# Extensions to SDK classes

·         Base classes doing all your boring plumbing

·         XrmToolBox tools taking you the last kilometer

This is a session for those who are not afraid of seeing C# and enjoy watching live coding without safety net!

(Note from Julie:  I asked Joel to join us and share a what do CRM developers need to know about F&O session.  Bring your questions!)

In this presentation I’ll be talking about some of the best practices in future proofing your configuration to make sure that your customers get the absolute best from the platform.
