Dataverse Long Term Retention

It would be useful to tag D365 related read logs while exporting them (automatically) to O365 security and compliance center. Also possibility to retain those logs for longer than just 90 days would be beneficial.

Give Provision to delete Audit records with Event Type Audit Log Deletion and also give the provision to delete specific entity records with Timeframe as this will help to retain only specific records with specific timeframe.

The Long-Term Data Retention (LTDR) feature in Dynamics 365 offers significant benefits by enabling the archival of records into low-cost storage.

However, there are certain limitations that we hope will be addressed or included in the future roadmap:

1. Viewing Retained Attachments: Currently, the feature only displays the metadata of retained files without allowing access to the actual attachments. Providing functionality to view or download retained files would significantly increase adoption, as this limitation has made clients hesitant to leverage the feature.
2. Deleting Retained Records: At present, deleting retained records from Dataverse requires custom jobs utilizing SDK messages. Introducing an option to delete data from retained tables, similar to retention policies, would simplify operations and encourage broader use of this feature.

Dear Microsoft Team,

I am a dedicated user of the Microsoft Arc Mouse and appreciate its sleek, portable design. However, I would love to see an enhancement that could significantly improve its functionality: integrating a touchpad mode for enhanced gesture control.

Currently, the Arc Mouse offers a smooth scrolling experience, but adding full touchpad-like functionality—such as multi-finger gestures for back/forward navigation, app switching, or even a pinch-to-zoom option—would greatly enhance its usability, particularly for those who rely on gestures for productivity.

This feature could be enabled through a firmware update or an additional setting in the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center, allowing users to toggle between standard mouse mode and touchpad mode. Many users, including myself, would appreciate this flexibility, as it would bridge the gap between a traditional mouse and the intuitive gesture control of a trackpad.

I believe this enhancement would make the Arc Mouse even more appealing to professionals, students, and frequent travelers. I would love to hear if this is something your team is considering.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best regards,

Neli Vasileva

Hi Team,

We are experiencing an issue related to the quick find search limitation

Although the return result limit is set to 10,000 records, we still expects a solution to extend this limitation. we want all results generated from the quick find search to be returned without this built-in design constraint.

when we create a Manual backup in sandbox instance it only retained for 7 days. there should be an option to extend the retention period as per requirement.

The multiple lookup control feature was introduced exclusively in the Field Service App. It is quite perplexing and somewhat challenging to understand why these functionalities have not been extended to all Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (D365 CE) Apps.

By having this functionality natively available in the Customer Service App, we can ensure a more seamless integration and reduce potential complications associated with external dependencies. This would not only save time and resources but also enhance the overall user experience by providing a consistent and reliable solution within the Dynamics 365 ecosystem.

Implementing multiple lookup fields across all D365 CE Apps would significantly simplify the process of relating multiple records, as demonstrated by its current use in the Field Service App. Here are some points which can improve processes and user experience by providing the multiselect functionality across all the apps:

Enhanced Efficiency:

Users can quickly associate activities with multiple records without duplicating efforts, saving time and reducing manual work.

Streamlined Processes:

This feature can streamline workflows by enabling users to link relevant records directly, enhancing overall productivity.

Consistency Across Apps:

Extending these functionalities across all D365 CE Apps would provide a consistent user experience, making it easier for users to navigate and utilize the platform effectively.

I hope Microsoft will consider these points and roll out the multiselect lookup functionality across all Customer Engagement apps.

Our environment has encountered a 1,000-attribute limit on the entity/table in D365, necessitating a rearchitecture of our usage. We propose increasing the attribute limit to 2,500 to accommodate larger data collections and prevent similar issues. This change would support smoother implementations and ongoing operations, such as enabling the installation of CJI and other applications.

I am using Dataverse and building a Model-driven application in Power apps. Right, there is not functionality that allows to format a decimal column as % or $ I know that it is posible to define columns as currency but there is a los of limitations using in Power automate and defining formula columns, Rollups. Also, will be nice to include the same functionality for formula columns when th result is a decimal by example for calculation of the amount using the quantity and Unit price

Currently, the Dataverse Recycle Bin retains deleted items for only 30 days. After this period, the data is permanently deleted.

For some users, data may be accidentally deleted due to errors in their code or workflows. For instance, a user might run a script that mistakenly deletes a large set of records because of a misconfigured filter. These users need time to correct these errors before restoring the data, and 30 days is often insufficient.

I propose extending the Recycle Bin storage period to 90 days. Alternatively, users should have the option to set a custom period for how long deleted data is stored before permanent deletion, similar to configuring audit settings.
