How duplicate phone numbers for customers (contact/account) are handled in Voice Channel (Dynamics 365 Omnichannel for Customer Service)


Before we delve into different scenarios, few key points, we need to be aware of about Phone Numbers in Voice Channels.

  • Voice Channel considers Contact’s Mobile Phone (mobilephone) and Account’s Phone (telephone1) fields.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-service/record-identification-rule

  • The phone number should be in E.164 format inside Dynamics 365.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-service/voice-channel-bring-your-own-number?tabs=customerserviceadmincenter#prerequisites

https://developers.omnisend.com/guides/e164-phone-number-formatting

  • If no matching customer (contact or account) is found, the conversation record will not have any customer prepopulated.

  • If 2 contacts are having the same Phone Number (E.164) format, i.e. multiple matches found

In that case, also, no customer is tagged in the conversation record, the agent would have to search for the customer.

  • If 2 contacts and 1 account have the same Phone Number

The Conversation records get associated with the Account record.

  • If 1 contact and 1 account have the same Phone Number

The conversation record gets tagged against the Contact

  • If there is only 1 account record with that phone number and no contact records

The conversation record has an Account tagged to it.

  • In case multiple accounts are found with the same phone number and no matching contact

No customer is tagged in the conversation record

  • If there are multiple contacts and multiple accounts with the same phone number

No customer is tagged in the conversation record.

In short –

Fixed – The product cannot be added because it is not active while creating Quote Product – Dynamics 365 / Dataverse


We got the below error while trying to create a quote product programmatically.

As the error message specifies, this is because we are trying to add/associate a DRAFT product to the Quote Product.

We will get a similar error from the application as well if we try adding a draft product as an existing product to either a quote product or an opportunity product.

Below is the product in the Draft status.

Publish the product to make it Active.

Hope it helps..

Sample Code – Capture / Record lead qualification date – Dynamics 365 / Dataverse


Recently we had a requirement to capture the date when a lead is qualified. Here we can create a new date time attribute to capture the lead qualification date and update this field either through workflow, flow, or plugin on lead qualification.

Status Code = 3 (Qualified)

We implemented a plugin on PreOperation – Update of lead, with filtering attributes as the state code.

Below is the sample code for the plugin  –

 public void Execute(IServiceProvider serviceProvider)
        {
            ITracingService tracingService = (ITracingService)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(ITracingService));
            IPluginExecutionContext context = (IPluginExecutionContext)serviceProvider.GetService(typeof(IPluginExecutionContext));
         
            try
            {
                tracingService.Trace("start plugin execution: {0}", this.GetType().FullName);
                // plugin is in pre update stage of lead
                if (context.InputParameters.Contains("Target") && context.InputParameters["Target"] is Entity &&
                    context.MessageName.Equals("update", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) &&
                   context.Stage == 20)   
                {
                    var leadEntity = (Entity)context.InputParameters["Target"];
                    if(leadEntity.LogicalName == "lead")
                    {
                        if(leadEntity.Attributes.Contains("statuscode") && 
                            ((OptionSetValue)leadEntity.Attributes["statuscode"]).Value == 3
                            )
                        {
                            tracingService.Trace("Lead with Id {0} is getting qualified at {1}", 
                                leadEntity.Id.ToString(), DateTime.UtcNow);
								
							// the custom date time field to capture the qualification date 
                            leadEntity["custom_qualificationdate"] = DateTime.UtcNow;                         
                        }
                    }                 

                }

                tracingService.Trace("end plugin execution: {0}", this.GetType().FullName);
            }
            catch (System.ServiceModel.FaultException<OrganizationServiceFault> ex)
            {
                tracingService.Trace(ex.Detail.Message);
                throw;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                tracingService.Trace(ex.ToString());
                throw;
            }
        }
