WORKING WITH CHOICE IN DATAVERSE Choices provide an exact list of values that people can choose. Choices help streamline new record creation and standardize data entry, and they are best suited for a small set of standard short terms rather than a long list of complex entries. You should not use choices when the field usually contains unique entries that are not easily standardized. Choices are managed as a separate list and then associated with a drop-down field. When used properly and closely managed, choices help ensure consistent data entry and improves the quality and usefulness of the data that you collect. choices can help create meaningful reports and identify trends and clusters of data. Finally, you can make fields of type choices required when they are created or edited.

CREATE AND MANAGE ENVIRONMENT IN DATAVERSE An environment is a way to create and manage an instance of a Dataverse database. It also lets you manage user access, security settings, and the storage that is associated with the Dataverse database within that environment. Additionally, an environment allows you to install applications that you build with Power Apps or flows that you create with Power Automate into that environment. You can create one or many environments, depending on your needs. Each environment is created under a Microsoft Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant, and its resources can only be accessed by users within that tenant. An environment is also bound to a geographic location, like the United States. When you create a Dataverse database in an environment, that database is created within datacenters in that geographic location. Any items that you create in that environment (including connections, gateways, flows that are using Microsoft Flow, and more) are a...

Every instance of a Dataverse database includes a base set of tables that provide structure for data that is commonly used by business applications. Types of tables The four types of tables are: Standard - The base set of tables that are created for every instance of a Dataverse database. You can add more columns to any table, but you cannot delete any column from a standard, premium, or restricted table. Complex - tables that contain complex, server-side business logic, including real-time workflows or plug-ins. Some of the tables that are used in Dynamics 365 applications are complex. To use complex tables, users are required to have a P2 or Dynamics 365 license. Care must be taken if you add server-side logic to ensure that users have the proper license to use the complex table. Additional information about complex tables can be accessed by following the link within the summary unit of t...
