Business value

Using this feature, you can take advantage of all of the investments we've made to the modern architecture for Project Operations on the Microsoft Dataverse platform. In addition to a great user experience, you'll get access to powerful and mature functionality for project planning with Microsoft Project for the web, modern resource management, subcontracting, and more. You'll have access to all of this without losing the benefit of the rich project accounting and invoicing capabilities of finance and operations apps.

Feature details

You can move from the Project Operations for manufacturing deployment type to the Project Operations Integrated with ERP deployment type. Learn more about the different deployment types: Determine your deployment type.

The enhancements in this feature enable the parallel use of projects from both deployment types and the option to cleanly cut over from one deployment type to the next. If you want to run both systems in parallel, you can enter transactions, create invoices or run revenue recognition, and close any long-running projects when complete. If you want to have a single unified experience, you can close all existing projects and migrate beginning balances into new projects on the modern architecture.

Use this feature if you're using the Project management and accounting module and don't need production orders or manufacturing. With this feature, you can enable our modern architecture for new projects without needing to reimplement your existing legal entity. If you want to continue using the capabilities in the stocked deployment type, you aren't impacted by this feature.

Enhancements included beyond the initial release include:

  • Adding support for project procurement documents of purchase requisitions, purchase orders, and vendor invoices.
  • Adding support for item requirements and project sales orders.

With this feature, we remove access or make read-only the legacy functions that exist in both deployment types. For example, when you enable this feature, you can't edit resource management and project work breakdown structures in the finance and operations user interface for the Project Operations Integrated deployment type. For projects you create in the modern new architecture, use Unified Resource Scheduling experiences for resource scheduling, and Project for the Web experiences for project planning.
