This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2.
The second of the new functionality in the Governance and Administration section is improved update release processes.
Improved update release processes ensure that updates run as close to the start of the update window as possible and that updates are made available globally more gradually.
Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: –
General Availability: Oct 2023
Feature Details
During 2023 release wave 2, Microsoft are improving their update release processes. Customers who don’t manually schedule their environment updates can expect updates to start quickly after the start of the environment update window.
To deploy updates more gradually to environments that don’t manually reschedule the update to a different date, update availability and default scheduling will vary per region.
My Opinion
I would encourage clients to keep an eye on release dates and schedule updates for when is going to be suitable for them rather than letting Microsoft control when updates happen. Clients need to get it installed in a sandbox and test everything first before rolling it into the production environment.
