Why Microsoft Copilot is a Game-Changer (And Why You Should Care)
Let’s be honest – we live in a world fueled by “efficiency” and “automation.” These aren’t just buzzwords anymore, they’re vital keys to staying competitive. That’s why tools like Microsoft Copilot are all the buzz; they have the potential to completely shake up the way we work.
Copilot is gaining popularity for how it handles routine tasks and complex analysis.
Here’s why it’s worth adding Copilot to your tech stack:
Dynamics 365 Dual Write Overview
Do you ever feel like your business is on separate tracks? Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations on one side. CE applications on the other. Manually transferring data between these systems can be a time-consuming and error-prone process. But what if there was a way to combine these apps? It would create a unified experience for your teams and a full view of your customer journey.
Dynamics 365 Finance Feature Management
Feature management in Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform is one of the most powerful yet often overlooked benefits of the Dynamics 365 ecosystem. Microsoft constantly adds robust and evolving solutions to these platforms, but they often go unnoticed. In fact, you might spend time and resources on a custom solution, only to discover a hidden feature that solves your problem perfectly.
How to Use Power BI Drillthrough
Today, we’re going to explore one of the most powerful features in Power BI: drillthrough. This feature is a game-changer when it comes to data exploration and storytelling. So, let’s get started!
WHAT IS DRILLTHROUGH IN POWER BI?
Drillthrough is a feature in Power BI that allows you to create a focused, detailed page for a single entity—like a customer, product, or location. Imagine you have a summary page that shows sales data by region. After developing an understanding of what details a report user regularly needs to review, a report designer can create a drillthrough target page that users can easily navigate to based on what region is selected from a visual on that summary page. This added design feature allows a report user to easily right-click on a specific region to navigate to a more detailed page that provides insights specific to that region. It’s like having a magnifying glass that lets you zoom in on specific aspects of your data for a more granular view.

Paginated Reports 101 Part 5: Getting your Report Print & View Ready
Paginated report guides will often start by setting up the report and body prior to building out the “meat” of the report. If a report’s precise dimensions and orientation are already determined, this is a sensible way to go. Most of the time, however, I find that I have some wiggle room. The structure of the main report body may work better on legal-sized paper rather than letter-sized paper, or it may fit more cleanly into a landscape orientation rather than a portrait orientation.
Paginated Reports 101 Part 4: Adding Parameters and Filters to your Paginated Report
Multiple components in the Power BI ecosystem are referred to as parameters and filters. For this reason, I’m going to be heavily qualifying and color-coding throughout this blog post to make it a little easier for you to follow.
