Describe Dynamics 365 Marketing capabilities

Types of marketing
• The two primary modules for Marketing (apart from event management) are:
• Outbound marketing, and
• Real-time marketing.
• Outbound marketing includes:
• Social media,
• Website landing pages and forms,
• Event, lead and subscription management,
• Lead scoring and grading.
• Best for B2B marketing automation.
• Real-time marketing includes:
• Scalable customer engagement ("journeys") which are personalized and in
real-time,
• Mobile messaging.
Page 1 of 38
• Both include:
• Automatic segment-based email marketing,
• Basic personalization of content.
1. Describe the process for generating and scoring leads by using marketing forms and
pages
• Leads are people/organizations who might buy your product in the future.
• You can add leads by going to Marketing – Lead management – Leads – "+New".
• You can use existing contacts and accounts as leads.
• The top bar is called a "Business Process flow". Click "Save" to activate the
"Next stage" button.
• You can create your own Business Processes to replace this – click on
Process to do this.
• "Topic" needs to be added manually
• The "Inquiry" stage shows a new lead.
• The "Automated marketing qualifications" stage can be reached
automatically from a lead-scoring model, or advanced manually.
• Other stages are reached as part of the Lead-to-opportunity marketing sales
process.
• You can also "Import from Excel" (or CSV or XML) from your existing lists and then
map to contacts or accounts.
• Leads can also be:
• generated from landing pages or event registrations,
• landing pages can include a form for visitors to enter their contact
details, which are stored in Dynamics 365 Marketing.
• synced from LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms, or
• created by a create-lead tile in a customer journey.
• Scoring models are assessments as to how good a prospect those leads are:
• Marketing – Lead management – Scoring models
• If you are creating a new scoring model, go to the Summary tab, and select
Target as Contact or Account-based leads.
• Contact evaluates that contact only.
• Account evaluates the account and all information/interactions based
on that account's contacts.
• You can evaluate conditions, and give the leads points based on the results of those
conditions.
Page 2 of 38
• You can drag conditions and actions from the Toolbox, or click on the + in the
top-left hand corner.
• If you click on the drop-down in a condition, you can then assign the
condition "Properties".
• Entity for a condition could be "Lead", relating to the account or
contact.
• You can then assign leads "Grades" based on what score they get.
• You can click on Insights to see how many leads are/has been affected by this
Scoring Model (per day – default is 30 days).
• To view grades for this model, go to Related – Lead Scores.
• To view grades for a lead, regardless of the model, go to the lead.
• Lead scores are in the bottom-right hand corner of the Summary tab, and in
the Lead scores tab.
• A dashboard is available:
• Go to My Work – Dashboards and use the drop-down list to select "Lead
generation dashboard".
2. Describe how to target customers by using segments and subscription lists

• Marketing Segments are groups of related contacts which are the target for a
customer journey.
• They are used in customer journeys (used in Dynamics 365 Marketing), but
not used in campaigns or quick campaigns (used in other Dynamics 365
apps).
• They can be viewed by going to Marketing – Customers – Segments
• They can be:
• static – you manually add members, or
• dynamic – members are added based on criteria. They are constantly
updated based on updated contacts and contact info.
• You can show a list of available templates or click "Skip" to start from
blank.
• They can be behavioral segments – based on what the contact did
• They can be demographic (e.g. contact attributes such as location) or
firmographic (Industry, Customer Size, Status, Structure,
Performance).
• After adding a query/behavior block, you can use the search bar to
type in English what category of contacts you would like.
• People who live in New York.
Page 3 of 38
• People who not have an address.
• You can also combine segments to create compound segments. You can use
union, include and exclude.
• Segments need to be live before they can be used.
• Click on "Go Live". It goes from "Draft" to "Live".
• Subscription lists are for mailing lists.
• They can be used in campaigns or quick campaigns, but not in customer
journeys.
• They only contain contacts.
• The contacts include "Bulk Email" which can be "Do not allow".
• They can be used in apps without Dynamics 365 Marketing.
• Segments are only available if you have Dynamics 365 Marketing, but
can be used in other apps.

• You can also add attachments.
• You can also translate it by going to Translate at the top of the screen.
• Once created, you should mark it for review
• The Primary Author is the person who is going to maintain it. By default, that
is the article creator.
• Change the Summary – Status Reason to Draft.
• Then the review reviews it, and either approves it or rejects it.
• Not everyone can review – they need to have Approve permissions.
• If it is rejected, you can then update the content.
• Once it is approved, you can:
• relate it to another article or a product.
• publish it
• It can also have an expiry date.
Page 21 of 38
• Once created, you can update an article by create major and minor versions.
• They will then need to be re-reviewed and published.
• You can use the "My Knowledge Dashboard" for an overview of your articles.
15. Describe the case lifecycle including service-level agreements (SLAs) and
entitlements
• Cases are data from customer problems.
• Some places call them incidents or tickets.
• To view cases:
• Go to (in the Customer Service Hub) Services – Cases.
• You can start a new case by going to "+ New".
• They can come from:
• Phone calls,
• Emails,
• Contact forms on website,
• Social media, such as Facebook or Twitter, or
• The Internet of Things (IoT).
• They include:
• Subject, Contact and Product,
• Case type (Question, Problem or Request),
• Any other recent cases.
• You can also work through an Agent script
• See right-hand side, when you are in the Customer Service workspace.
• They can be edited/added in the "Customer Service app" - Service
Management – Agent Scripts.
• You can also use this area to add/edit Subjects (Service Management –
Subjects).
• You can assign a case:
• by clicking "Apply Routing rules" or "Save and Route", to use routing rules
which you have already created to automatically assign them.
• to someone by clicking "Assign", or
• to a queue for someone else to pick up.
• You can "Convert To – To Knowledge Article".
• Cases can be:
• Resolved – either "Problem Solved" or "Information Provided"
Page 22 of 38
• Cancelled – no longer assignable,
• Merged – combined with another case about the same issue
• Assigned – to another member of your team.
• Escalated (change the Priority – top right of the screen)
• the source of a "Create child case".
• Service-level agreement (SLA), and Time remaining to resolve the case. SLAs
include:
• An amount of time to the first response, and
• An amount of time to the last response.
• SLAs may optionally be paused and resume.
• SLAs need to be activated before they can be used.
• A case can reduce a client's Entitlements.
• This is an amount of support a client can have.
• Entitlements are calculated in "terms" (number of cases or hours).
• In Service Management – Service Terms – Entitlements, you can set:
• The Primary Customer,
• Start and End Dates,
• The SLA,
• The allocation type (cases or hours),
• If cases, when to decrease – when the case is created or resolved.
• Types of channels available for entitlements (e.g. phone for 40 hours
and email for 60 hours)
• Restrict Products for the entitlement
• Click "Add New Product" and select the existing product.
• If you don't select a product, then the entitlement will be for
all products.
• Restrict Contacts for the entitlement.
• Click "Add Existing Contact" and select the existing Contact.
• If you don't select a contact, then the entitlement will be for
all contacts of the primary customer.
• Entitlements need to be activated before they can be used.
• After it has expired or cancelled, you can renew an entitlement.
• This creates a new entitlement, where the Status is "Draft".
• The new start date will be the current date.
Page 23 of 38
• The new end date will be the current date plus the old
duration.
• Data in other fields will be as per the previous entitlement.
• The expired or cancelled entitlement will not change.
• For a particular case, you can choose not to count this as a use of an
entitlement by going to "Do not decrease entitlements".
16. Describe how to use queues to manage work

• Queues are containers which store things which need to be completed or actioned.
• Go to (in the Customer Service Hub) Services – Queues.
• It is a list of questions, problems and requests needed to be actioned.
• You can sort queues by queue name, title, who is working on it, or when it
entered the queue.
• Different queues can be set up:
• For structure, such as first, second or third tier support
• For business process, such as Service Level Agreement.
• To set up a new queue, go to Service Management area – Case Settings – Queues –
New.
• You need to be Sales/Marketing/Customer Service Manager or System
Administrator.
• Queues can be:
• Public – all of the company can see it, or
• Private – only some of the company can easily see it (it does not stop the
entire company from seeing it).
• To give an item in the queue to someone, select the item and click "Assign".
• You can create "routing rules" to automatically route cases to queues.
• This can be used for cases which have been automatically created from
incoming email and social media.
24. Customer Service Dashboards

• This is akin to a work order template. This will populate
the following, but not necessarily immediately:
Page 25 of 38
• Default Work Order Type,
• Required Products,
• Required Services,
• Service Tasks, and
• Skills/Characteristics.
• Priority
• Work order status: unscheduled.
• Note: Up until late 2021, this would read "Open –
unscheduled", but has now been changed.
• You then need to schedule it.
• Click "Book" (at the top)
• Resources and a date and time are assigned.
• Work order status: [Open – ]scheduled.
• It is then dispatched.
• The Field Agent is automatically notified of the work order, and may
review and decline or accept it.
• Notifications would need to be enabled beforehand.
• Work order status is unchanged.
• The service is then done.
• The work is carried out by the Field Agent.
• Actual Arrival Time is updated when the technician clicks
"Arrived".
• Afterwards, the work order status becomes [Open – ]completed.
• The Supervisor then reviews that the work and information are all correct.
• The work is carried out by a manager or field supervisor, and maybe
by accounting.
• Change the work order status to [Closed – ]Posted.
• Then an invoice is created, any inventory adjustments are made, and any
applicable products are converted into equipment.

conditions.
• Intraday and emergency scheduling – for adding urgent/emergency/high
priority jobs and resequencing when others are cancelled or rescheduled.
22. Describe how to enable proactive customer asset maintenance by using

Connected Field Service
• Connected Field Service (CFS) makes use of IoT (Internet of Things) data.
• Such as temperature, humidity.
• It integrates with Azure IoT Hub or Azure IoT Central to manage the status of
IoT devices and assets, and send information about anomalies (alerts) to the
Connected Field Service.
• Azure IoT Hub is a message hub between IoT devices and Azure
services. You use programming languages like .NET, Python and Java
to use it.
• Azure IoT Central is a GUI (graphical user interface) for Azure IoT Hub.
Easier to use.
• Data is stored in Azure SQL Database, and queries are stored in Azure Blob
storage.
• Benefits include:
• Reduced downtime by diagnosing problems with IoT before customers know.
• Keep customers in the loop.
Page 31 of 38
Identify common customer engagement features
• Make intelligent decisions about dispatching technicians (or not).
• Relate Assets to IoT devices by going to Connect Device.
• You can "Send command" when there is an IoT alert to (for example) reset
the device.
• You can see alerts in Assets – IoT Alerts.
Predictive work duration

• In non-trial versions of Field Service, you can use "predictive work duration". This
predicts the required duration of a booking or requirement, based on factors
including:
• Resource performance,
• Incident type,
• Account,
• Work order type,
• Geography and
• Time-related charges.
• It uses AI models and actual durations from previous bookings to produce
calculations for durations required.
• It gives access to 3 reports:
• Upcoming work duration – see if the time allocated to future work is too
little.
• Territory duration – analysis of a particular geographic location, to see if
planned durations were too high or low.
• Resource duration – see how well individual resources are doing against
projected durations.

23. Describe Microsoft Dataverse as the foundation for Dynamics 365 apps

• It contains tables (known in Dynamics 365 as "entities"), which includes rows and
columns.
• Each table is designed for a particular category of data, such as Account,
Contact, and different types of activities.
• A set of tables is defined by Dynamics 365 by default.
• Each row ("record") represents a different item – such as a different account,
contact, or phone call.
Page 32 of 38
• Each column ("field") represents a different property – such as a name,
address field, category description, together with system information such as
owner.
• The older terminology is still used in Dynamics 365 apps.
• Advantages for Dataverse include:
• Stored in the cloud – Microsoft manages it (Software as a Service, or "SaaS").
• Secure – only have access to data that you are meant to have access.
• You generally would not have access to everyone's data. Access is
controlled using Role-based security.
• Extend functionality using Power Apps.
• Canvas apps are "pixel perfect".
• They can be based on data in the Dataverse, or other sources.
• Model-driven apps use forms, views and graphs.
• They are only based on the Dataverse.
• Validate your data – using calculated columns, business rules, workflows and
business process flows to ensure the data is of high quality.
• Connect to your data in Excel.
24. Describe built-in reporting capabilities including dashboards, charts, and views
