{How to} enable record ownership across Business Units in Microsoft Dataverse

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today i am going to share new feature which allows a user to access another business unit records.
Lets gets started.
Before we dive into the new feature we need to understand about the “Hierarchical data access structure”.
Hierarchical data access structure:
 
 
when do we use hierarchical structure, when data and user are compartmentalized in a tree like hierarchy.

 

Suppose we have three business units including a ROOT Business unit at the top.
When we associate a user with this environment, we can set the user to be in one of the three business units and assign a security role from the business unit to the user.
When a user creates a record is determined by the business unit associated user. With the association it allows us to craft the security role which allows the user to see records in the respective business unit.
                                     
User A is associated with Divison A and assigned a security role Y from Division A.  This will allow User A to access the Contact #1 and Contact #2 records. While user B in Division B cannot access Division A’s Contact records but can access Contact #3 record.

Matrix data access structure(Modernized Business Units)

Customers can use an organisation structure where data is compartmentalized in a tree like hierarchy.
Users can work and access any business unit’s data regardless of what the business unit the user is assigned to.
So when we assign a user with an environment, we can set the user to one of the three units . For each business unit that a user needs to access data, a security role is assigned from that business unit to the user.
When a user creates a record  the user can set the business unit to the own the record.

 

Here User A  can be associated with any of the business units, Including the root business unit. A security role Y from Division A is assigned to user A which gives the user access to Contact #1 and Contact #2 records.
A security role Y from Division B is assigned to user A which gives the user access to Contact #3 record.
How to enable this feature?
1. Login into  PPAC
2. Select the environment and Click on settings.
3. Then Products > Features

 

4. Turn on the “Record ownership across Business Units“
So once this feature is turned on, we can select the Business unit when you assign a security role to user. This allows you to assign  security role from different business unit to a user.
The user requires a security role from the other business unit to be assigned in order to run the Model Driven Apps, with the user settings privileges.
I hope this helps.

{How to} enable canvas apps and cloud flows in Dataverse solutions

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today i am going to share a new feature which is in preview how to enable canvas apps and cloud flows in Dataverse solutions.
Up until now we are adding the canavas apps and cloud flows to the solution manaully.
Now with this latest feature you can directly create canvas app or cloud flows in the Dataverse Solutions.
Lets see in action:
To enable this feature you need to login into PPAC
Select the environment and then settings:
Then click on the “Features”:
Enable Canvas Apps
When you enable the canvas app i.e ON,  all apps will be stored as solutions in Dataverse, this means your users will likely need security roles updated for this environment.
Enable Cloud Flows:
When you turn on the Cloud Flow = ON : New cloud flows will be created inside a Dataverse Solution and your users will need the environment maker security role. Unsupported entry points, like sharepoint and teams, will fail to create any cloud flow until that support is added to create a solution cloud flow with that entry point.
Unsupported entry points are listed in the documentation: here
Now check the canvas apps and cloud flows can be created inside Dataverse solution:
Login into www.make.powerapps.com
Open the solutions and then select the your solution where you want to create the canvas app or cloud flow.
Click on the Objects and then click new as shown in below screenshot.
Once you click on the New chevron you will see the Apps, Automation, chatbot, dashboard, report, rules, security, table.. more..
click on the apps: then you can see the canvas app where you can create a canvas app inside dataverse solution.
Similarly you can create the Cloud flow by clicking on the Automation:
Now you can create Canvas App and Cloud Flows inside the Dataverse Solution.
Note:
1. Solutions are stored in Dataverse, so the environment must have a database to use this feature.if your environment doesn’t have database add one.
2. To create canvas app in solution, you must have write previleges to the CanvasApp Table. Also to create cloud flows in solutions, you should have the Environment Maker role, you can assign from security roles and privileges.
3. A canvas app or cloud flow in a solution must be shared with you before you can view or edit it.
Always check before you enable creation of canvas apps and cloud flows: considerations
I hope this helps
