We’ve been very excited at JOVACO about all the new features now available with the latest release for Microsoft Dynamics 365. We’ve recently talked about our favourite features for the Sales and Customer Voice modules, and we’re just as excited with the 2021 release for Service!
Here are our top 5 favourite features from the 2021 release for Service:
1. Power Automate workflows
Automate common and repetitive tasks to increase productivity and ensure quality even across a large team. For example, macros can be run to authenticate customers, transfer customer information from a form to an external system, and much more.
2. Updates to cases in resolved and canceled status
It’s now possible to allow only users with proper permissions to update case records whose status is set to resolved or canceled. This can be done with Power Automate workflows, APIs, or a plug-in. The user experience on the case form will continue to be read-only.
3. Modern administrative experience for auto-post configuration
This feature leverages the unified interface to provide an easy experience. Configure which activity record type automatically posts information to the timeline, select default filters to apply on the timeline, and remove unnecessary filters. Agents then have a better understanding of their customers and can deliver more personalized service.
4. Federated knowledge search
Data is often spread across multiple sources, but this feature lets users plug an external search provider into the knowledge search experience and search multiple sources at the same time. Connectors are provided for SharePoint, Microsoft, and Dynamics 365, with more to come later based on customer feedback.
5. Call recording
Agents now have the option to record a call, and pause or resume it. These recordings are stored in Dynamics 365, and call transcriptions can convert a phone conversation into written words for ease of use.
