In your CRM system, rating records play a crucial role in various aspects of business operations. Whether it’s gauging the likelihood of a lead converting into an opportunity, assessing the impact of a customer case, or evaluating the rapport with a salesperson, ratings provide valuable insights. In this guide, we’ll explore how to integrate the Star rating control into Microsoft Dynamics, elevating your forms’ visual appeal and enhancing user experience.
Revitalizing Dynamics Forms
Microsoft Dynamics, while robust in functionality, can sometimes appear dated in terms of its interface. While backend improvements are ongoing, there’s still room for enhancement on the frontend. Thankfully, giving your forms a makeover is relatively straightforward.
How to Add the Star Rating Control in Power Apps
Back in the Power Apps maker portal, navigate to the table main form where you want to enhance the rating fields. Ensure you’re working within a solution for proper management. Select the Components button from the ribbon, then under the Input section, you will find the Star Rating control. Drag and place it onto the form. Associate it with the whole number field you want to rate, typically on a scale of 1-5. Customize the control by choosing the desired number of values, ranging from 2 to 5.
Save and publish the form to implement the changes. Upon viewing a record in Dynamics, observe how whole number fields transform into star rating fields. Note the real-time interaction of the control with the data.
In Conclusion
The integration of star rating controls not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your Dynamics forms but also streamlines the user experience. While color customization may require technical expertise, the out-of-the-box functionality significantly improves usability.
