Finally here: Copying CoreHR database to Sandbox

Posted on by Nicu Aleman
Many times (during the last 2 years and after 5 Dynamics 365 for Talent implementations) I had no convincing answer to the following question: how do you make a copy  - easy and completely -  of the production CoreHR database?

(if you want...

Extending Talent with PowerApps and Microsoft Flow (Real Case Scenarios)

Posted on by Nicu Aleman
Microsoft Partners are still worried about the extensibility features provided by Talent, mainly because Talent is a locked application, for now.
