atinkerersnotebook: Advanced Dungeons & Dynamics 365
Источник: https://atinkerersnotebook.com/2024/...-dynamics-365/
==============

“Advanced Dungeons & Dynamics 365” is a clever take on blending the high fantasy of Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) with the practical world of Microsoft Dynamics 365, combining storytelling and ERP system configuration to make learning and using Dynamics 365 more engaging and accessible. Here’s how this mash-up can play out in a professional context, especially for training and development:

1. World-Building for Context
  • Just like a Dungeon Master (DM) in D&D sets the scene and creates a world with its own lore, you can set up a narrative around a fictional company or kingdom within Dynamics 365. For example, The Waterdeep Trading Company or Fife’s Mystic Goods might be fictional organizations with business operations configured within the ERP.
  • Each “kingdom” (or business division) might need specific configurations in Dynamics 365, such as unique charts of accounts, inventory locations, or even custom workflows, which require specialized problem-solving.
2. Character Personas as System Roles
  • Instead of standard user roles, users can adopt personas, such as:
    Greta Ironfist, the CEO of Waterdeep Trading Company (similar to the DM’s role): Manages overarching strategies in Finance and Operations, sets up customer hierarchies, and oversees the company’s vision.
    Ava Thompson, the COO: Manages operational efficiency, streamlines supply chain processes, and ensures resource allocation aligns with the company’s growth strategy.
    Daniel Alexander Reed, the System Administrator: Oversees system configurations, maintains security protocols, and optimizes the system for the business needs.
  • These characters can add an interactive storytelling layer, helping trainees see how different system roles interconnect.
3. Quest-Based Learning Modules
  • Each training goal or functionality demonstration becomes a quest, such as:The “Order-to-Cash Adventure”: Learning to set up a new customer record, maintain multiple contacts, configure default payment terms, and manage parent-child relationships in Dynamics 365.The “Inventory & Distribution Challenge”: Setting up an item master record, configuring SKUs, assigning item types, tracking expiration dates, and linking items to warehouses.
  • Completing these quests can “level up” the user’s knowledge and skill, adding a bit of gamification to the learning process.
4. Fantasy-Themed Data and Scenarios
  • Use fantasy-inspired data, such as selling “enchanted swords” or “mystic potions,” where each item has a unique set of characteristics, financial values, or expiration dates that need careful tracking and management.
  • You could also create a fictional economy with vendors like Baldur’s Gate Blacksmiths Guild for procurement or Lara’s Fine Fabrics and More for specialty textile items.
5. Guilds and Teams for Collaboration
  • Teams within the Dynamics 365 environment can be seen as guilds, each with a unique focus area (e.g., finance, supply chain, human resources).
  • A guild could be tasked with solving specific challenges that arise, such as managing a large influx of orders or handling complex customer hierarchies, simulating real-world business problems.
6. Encounters with System “Monsters”
  • Just as adventurers face monsters, users might encounter “monsters” in the form of system errors, process bottlenecks, or tricky configurations.
  • These “monsters” could be defeated with specific skills or tools, such as leveraging Power BI for data visibility, configuring Power Automate workflows, or setting up credit limits to manage customer debt in Finance and Operations.
7. Magic Items & Tools for ERP Users
  • Just as D&D characters have magical items, users can be equipped with “magic items” (custom solutions or add-ons) that enhance their capabilities in Dynamics 365.
  • For example, a “Wand of Reconciliation” could be a custom reconciliation tool, or the “Scroll of Analytics” could represent Power BI insights.
8. Spellcasting for Automation
  • Spellcasting could represent various levels of automation in Dynamics 365. Simple spells might be quick automations in Power Automate, while high-level spells could be complex workflows and integrations with Power Platform.
  • A “casting” could represent running a script or a bot in Power Automate that automates tasks like data validation or customer follow-ups.
By using a storytelling approach, Advanced Dungeons & Dynamics 365 can make complex ERP concepts relatable, help trainees engage with the system, and build connections that are memorable, enjoyable, and practical. And just like in D&D, it builds a strong sense of collaboration, problem-solving, and role-playing that elevates the learning experience.
