Order events in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations

With this feature you are able to track the changes made to the order like prices changes, delivery information changes etc. as well as reviewing change history information afterwards.

It will give you the ability to monitor the events occurring throughout sales.

There are several factors to consider when planning to implement Order events functionality:

1. If you are considering enabling alert notifications.
2. What events need to be tracked.
3. Which issues should be addressed and when they are first detected.
4. Validity period and who should be tracked.
