Data ALM Dynamics 365 Finance Operations

New article here to explain a new solution I have made for Data ALM (and automation everywhere) in terms of data movement for Dynamics 365 Finance Operations. For the code ALM part, and even for RSAT, all the way it’s quite really easy to manage from development to release (especially thanks to Azure Dev Ops). But what about data / refresh / copy / backup and restore ? From many years now on, I was (as partner) trying to do it the more automatically I can for customers - and even me in fact... But as of today, and as a gift for the community, I release a brand new solution to install it and manage that without any MANUAL actions for all steps required for data movement ! I hope that it will help you a lot - like it will help me a lot for me, believe me - tons of hours saved. Let’s jump in !
