The D365 Upgrade Season Is Here — Are You Ready?
Every October, organizations using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O) brace for the wave of yearly updates — bringing new features, performance enhancements, and security patches.
While these upgrades are essential to stay current, many teams face a common fear: patch instability. Business-critical processes that worked perfectly before suddenly face disruptions.
At Crestech Software, we understand that fear — and we’ve built expertise around tackling it head-on.
What’s Coming in the D365 2025 Update (Wave 2)?
Microsoft’s upcoming 2025 Wave 2 update is rolling out across environments starting October to December 2025, introducing:
- Enhanced AI-driven insights in F&O modules
- Automation for repetitive finance operations
- New warehouse and inventory visibility features
- Improved Power Platform integration for cross-module workflows
- UI consistency and accessibility upgrades across D365 suite
These are exciting updates — but with great change comes great testing responsibility.
Why Patch Testing Is a Non-Negotiable
Patch testing is not just about checking if the system opens post-upgrade. It’s about ensuring:
- Every customization and integration still functions as intended
- Regression risks are caught early
- Automation test suites are updated to match the new release
- There’s zero downtime post-deployment
For enterprises running mission-critical processes, skipping or underestimating patch testing can lead to financial loss, workflow disruption, and user frustration.
