Dynamics 365 Human Resources

Am I breaking up with HR?

Since March 2018 I’ve been blogging and working with Dynamics 365 Human Resources, or Talent as it was called back then. It’s been quite a journey for me these years and I’ve learned so much and gotten to know many people, many of whom I now call friends. Much of it is thanks to D365 HR, I would not be where I am today without the system.

I started with passing the new exam and realised there wasn’t much content about Talent online, so I decided to start blogging about the exam. That led to being challenged to blog every day for a month, a month passed and I just continued and eventually blogged every workday for 6 months straight.

Blogging led me to present and I had my first presentation on November 8 2018 at DynUG. After this, I did some presentations in meetups in Norway and started a women in Dynamics user group.

I was selected to present at the User Group Summit in Amsterdam, where I was lucky to get to meet the team behind Talent and spent about an hour talking with them and finding even more motivation to work with the system.

Fast forward to release wave 2 2021, the news that HR was moving back in with F&O was released. This meant that from 2022, HR was no longer on Dataverse, and everything changed. I now had to think about the future and what I wanted to do moving forward. With HR on F&O, I had two options, either learn more F&O infrastructure and generally more F&O or leave HR behind and focus on where I’ve always been; Dataverse and CRM.

I’ve hardly worked with D365 HR the past year and I’ve decided that I no longer will work with Dynamics 365 Human Resources.

It feels strange, it feels like ending a relationship, but I’m not in a position where I manage to keep up to date with HR, Marketing, Sales, Customer Service and Power Platform. So something has to go, and HR is the odd one out. So that is it, I’m not going to work with, blog on or do sessions about Dynamics 365 Human Resources again.

There are other people working with HR and I highly recommend looking at their content:

Ana Inés Urrutia – She is now the main person to go to for anything HR!

Kamal Radhakrishnaiah – Kamal also runs an HR newsletter that is well worth signing up for: https://nocodehr.com/category/uncategorized/allblogs/newsletter/
