Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations Unified Developer Experience (UDE) environment. How to check deployment model errors.

I recently faced errors in the Unified Developer Experience (UDE) environment while trying to deploy a model. However, there were no build errors and my model had no dependencies on other models.

In order to find the root cause of the issue, we should see the log file. 

  • Click on the CRM link and open the "Finance and Operations Package Manager".
  • Go to "Operation History". (If you want to view all your deployment history, you need to select the "Package" section.)
  • Select the failed line with clicking on the "Operation Name".
  • Download the "operationlogs.zip" and you will see, what's really happened on the environment.

If you try to open the "Finance and Operations Package Manager", but it gives you an error even if you have the Power Platform Admin role assigned, you need to add yourself to the "System Administrator" role in the PPAC environment.

In order to add yourself to the System Administrator role in the PPAC environment, you need to perform the following steps:

  • Go to https://admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com/manage/environments. 
  • Click on your environment name to open the details.
  • Click "Membership" in the top right corner. 
  • If you aren't in the list of Sys admins, click "+Add me" button to add yourself.
After that, you should have access to the "Finance and Operations Package Manager" page.

Table synchronization failure in Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations due to the "SaveContent" field property.

Once, I experienced a database synchronization issue: "Table Sync Failed for Table: XXXXX. Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Database execution failed: Column name 'XXXXXX' does not exist in the target table or view.

I had checked the table structure in my local DevBox and the mentioned field was present in the table. I checked the table structure on my local DevBox, and the mentioned field was present. When I checked the field's properties, I recognized that it has the "SaveContent" property set to "No" and is included in one of the table's indexes.

I set the "SaveContent" property set to "Yes" and performed a compilation and database synchronization. After that, the error "Table Sync Failed for Table: XXXXX. Exception: System.InvalidOperationException: Database execution failed: Column name 'XXXXXX' does not exist in the target table or view." disappeared.
