Här kommer texten till avsnittet jag ska släppa på fredag Johan and Gustav reunite for a release notes episode, noting how rare these have become as Microsoft spreads out its update cadence - leaving more time to actually digest features amid the breakneck pace of AI innovation. They open with small wins: BCC support finally arriving in electronic reporting emails, and the new "in" operator simplifying bank reconciliation matching rules. A meaningful discussion emerges around license keys versus feature management. Using product lifecycle state as a springboard, Johan cautions that enabling license keys does far more than surface UI elements - it adds and removes columns and tables underneath. He argues for keeping license keys in their out-of-box configuration since Microsoft doesn't test every permutation. A memorable anecdote: a customer who disabled the CDS integration key only to break dual write entirely. The hosts note that MCP servers with X++ now make analyzing these dependencies far easier. The standout feature is dynamic warehouse work classification through Power Fx. Rather than building location directives in X++ code requiring developer deployment, users can now configure prioritization logic directly from the UI. Johan sees Copilot generating these formulas, though Gustav raises legitimate concerns about configuration drift across environments - prompting talk of treating configuration as version-controlled code through agents and MCP. Commerce gets attention with cross-legal-entity order fulfillment closing the intercompany loop, mid-transaction payment terminal switching for dying batteries, and contextual switching between POS and external apps without full integrations. The episode closes on MCP enhancements: attachment support in the ERP MCP, SQL-based data tools that offload calculations the AI struggles with to SQL, the deprecation of client/server keywords, and Finance & Operations joining the Power Platform API reference.
