I wanted to see if I could toggle visibility for a Tab and/or a Section on a Form, whenever an Account record was Activated or Deactivated. First thing I did was make sure the names of my Tabs and Sections were unique. I made the following changes in my form: Now for a little JavaScript…
I accidentally – or purposely, for the sake of having something to figure out – added the Status field for a Car entity to Car Main Form form. Whoops! 🤦♂️ I don’t really need it on the form as Activate and Deactivate buttons will handle setting the Status for me. I clicked on the Status…
In a recent solution I had modified the command bar for one of my forms, which creates a Component Library. I ended up not needing the modifications, and deleted the Component Library, only to find out there was still a dependency lurking about. I tried everything to figure out what it was and how to…
I am playing around with Solution Layering and Solution Segmentation in the Power Platform. Let me set the stage. I have an environment called AdventureWorks – Core. In this environment, I have the following solutions: I have another environment called AdventureWorks – Dev. In this environment, I have imported the previous solutions, as managed, excepted…
I’ll admit it, I am a fan of Model-Driven Apps. ❤️ They are a great way to accelerate the development of applications that make user of Dataverse. Sometimes I may create a Canvas App or two or three that use my Dataverse entities, but somewhere, I always have a Model-Driven App, even if it’s just…

I was struggling with getting my Quick Create Form working in my Model-Driven App. From all the documentation I looked at, I thought I had things configured correctly. Sadly, I had missed a step. Thank you Owen_Wetherow, I am indebted to you for helping me to fix this. The answer is found at Solved: Quick…
I recently had a request to demonstrate how to toggle tab visibility based on the value of an entity property, Item, in a Model-Driven App. To complete the ask I used JavaScript and wired it up to the Model-Driven App form events, specifically On Load and On Change events. Try it in your own environment…
Let’s say you have a Dataverse record that you want to do some things to post creation, for example, maybe you have special requirements for generating a value for the Primary Name column or need to add records to another Dataverse table, and so on. That begs the question, how would you prevent the user…
In my Model-Driven App, I wanted users to be able to use the Quick Create Form when click the New button. Seemed like a pretty simple request, but like most things, it wasn’t. I was able to use the Quick Create From from a Sub-grid or a Lookup, but not a View. What to do?…
