Docs4FO – Azure DevOps documentation in D365FO

Find, read, and edit your Azure DevOps documentation directly in D365FO.

YOUR DOCUMENTATION. RIGHT INSIDE D365FO. Keep your business documentation in Azure DevOps. Bring it into daily use in Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations. Docs4FO connects D365FO pages with relevant Azure DevOps work items, so users can find process instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), parameter explanations, and configuration guides while they work. For end users, it means guidance close at hand. For consultants and documentation owners, it means a practical way to create and maintain documentation in the context of the page it describes. FIND GUIDANCE WHERE YOU WORK • Documentation for the current page: Link D365FO menu items to Azure DevOps work items and find guidance relevant to the page you are using. • Read directly in D365FO: View linked work item descriptions in the extension, without opening each item in Azure DevOps. • Choose how you work: Open the popup for a quick lookup, or keep documentation alongside D365FO in a persistent sidebar. • Navigate both ways: Open related work items in Azure DevOps, or return from a work item to its connected D365FO page. CREATE AND MAINTAIN DOCUMENTATION IN CONTEXT • Edit without switching tools: Update work item descriptions in the extension and save your changes to Azure DevOps. • Make instructions easier to follow: Add formatted text, tables, images, and screenshots of the visible D365FO page. • Document pages as you go: Create Azure DevOps work items for D365FO pages when you discover missing documentation. • Build from D365FO menus: Review an expanded module menu, identify existing and missing entries, and import missing entries into Azure DevOps using a configured flat list or tree structure. TURN TASK RECORDINGS INTO TEST CASES Convert D365FO task recordings in AXTR or XML format into Azure DevOps test cases. Optionally attach the original recording and link the test case to the current work item with a “Tested by” relationship.
