Overview of this book

Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a powerful tool. It has many unique features that empower organisations to bridge common business challenges and technology pitfalls that would usually hinder the adoption of a CRM solution. This book sets out to enable you to harness the power of Dynamics 365 and cater to your unique circumstances. We start this book with a no-code configuration chapter and explain the schema, fields, and forms modeling techniques. We then move on to server-side and client-side custom code extensions. Next, you will see how best to integrate Dynamics 365 in a DevOps pipeline to package and deploy your extensions to the various SDLC environments. This book also covers modern libraries and integration patterns that can be used with Dynamics 365 (Angular, 3 tiers, and many others). Finally, we end by highlighting some of the powerful extensions available. Throughout we explain a range of design patterns and techniques that can be used to enhance your code quality; the aim is that you will learn to write enterprise-scale quality code.

Up until Dynamics CRM 2015, releasing a solution was a big task. Before solutions (CRM 4.0 era and before), System Customizers had to pick and choose what to promote to the next environments. Most included all customizations to avoid leaving anything behind. Solutions were introduced in CRM 2011 and have been improved over the years. Most notably, with CRM 2016, the concept of patching was introduced. Instead of releasing your entire solution, which might introduce a risk to your deployment, you can now narrow a release to the minimum required. Your patch, for example, might include an updated view, additional fields, or an updated form.

In this recipe, we will patch our Packt base solution and include an updated field along with an updated form.

Getting ready

In order to patch a solution, you will need the base Packt solution (or equivalent) already set up in your environment. The Packt solution has been used throughout the book; however, you can simply create a new solution...
