Overview of end-to-end scenarios and business processes in Dynamics 365

Dynamics 365 supports many different industries and types of organizations. In this section, we provide an overview of end-to-end scenarios that organizations often look for. Dynamics 365 is a suite of applications that are designed to help organizations meet the organizational goals aligned to various business processes in specific industries.

The term business process covers a wide range of structured, often sequenced, activities or tasks to achieve a predetermined organizational goal. The term can also refer to the cumulative effects of all steps progressing toward a business goal. In our articles, we illustrate this sequence of steps in flowcharts.

Overview

The business process catalog lists end-to-end processes that are commonly used to manage work within an organization or support work within the organization. But most end-to-end scenarios are primary processes within the organization to procure, produce, sell, and drive revenue. The following diagram illustrates the three groups of end-to-end scenarios:

The following table provides links to the introduction, overview, and list of business process areas for each end-to-end scenario that we've documented.

In the table, the Catalog ID column specifies the unique ID of the end-to-end scenario in the business process catalog. We use this ID to list the end-to-end scenarios on the Microsoft Learn site, but we do not use the IDs of the related business process areas, business processes, and patterns.
