Production Server Request in LCS (Dynamics D365)

Hi,

Production Server Request in LCS (Dynamics D365)

You need to move the LCS Implementation project through the stages until you have the option to request the Production instance.  Critically - you will need to ensure the subscription estimator is filled out accurately and submitted - as it is used to determine the size of the production instance.


Before Host Production - Do the Azure Speed TEST and Find nearest and fastest data center by less Average Latency (ms) 


Please make sure to complete below pre-golive list before request for production (Dynamics D365)


Pre Go-live Health Check list:
  1. Solution acceptance by users: UAT
    1. Is UAT completed successfully? How many users participated in UAT?
    2. Did UAT test cases cover entire scope of requirements planned for go-live?
    3. How many bugs/issues from UAT are still open?
    4. Any of the open bugs/issues a showstopper for go-live?
    5. Was UAT done using migrated data?
  2. Business signoff:
    1. Business has signed off after UAT that the solution meets business needs?
    2. Solution adheres to any company/industry specific compliance (where necessary)
    3. Training is complete
    4. All features going live are documented, approved and signed off by customer
  3. Performance:
    1. How was the performance in UAT? Is it acceptable for go-live?
    2. If Performance testing was done, then are there any open actions from it?

    2. Business has identified owners for data validation?
    3. Review cut-over plan: Business & Partner teams are comfortable with the plan?

    3. All Legal Entities configured for Go-Live?
    4. Are configurations documented?
  7. Integrations:
    1. Review list of integrations and readiness plan for each
    2. Latency requirements and performance criteria are met
    3. Integration support is in place with named contacts/owners
  8. Code Management
    1. Production fixes/maintenance process defined?
    2. Code promotion (between environments) process is in place, documented and the entire team knows and understands the process
    3. Code promotion schedule for production is in place?
    4. Emergency process for code promotion to production is defined?
  9. Monitoring and Microsoft Support
