Microsoft Dynamics 365 Development in Ely

Plug-in and custom development on Dynamics 365 for Ely organisations. Code registers into an execution pipeline with defined stages, and anything running synchronously sits inside the user's transaction with a hard time limit — so where you register a plug-in matters as much as what it does.

Why this comes up

The problem

A plug-in calls an external service on save, the service is slow one morning, and users cannot save records at all.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Plug-ins registered at the stage that matches what they need to do
  • External calls kept out of synchronous steps, where a slow response blocks users
  • Asynchronous processing used for work that need not complete before the save
  • Infinite loops prevented, since a plug-in updating its own table re-triggers itself
  • Errors handled so a failure produces a useful message rather than a stack trace
  • Code kept minimal, with configuration and Power Platform used where they suffice

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Development in Ely — common questions

Why does registration stage matter?
Because it determines what data you can see and change. Running before the operation lets you modify values as part of the same save; running after means the record is already written and changing it requires a second update — with different performance and different failure behaviour.
What is wrong with calling an API synchronously?
Your form now depends on someone else's uptime. A synchronous step waits inside the transaction with a limited window, so any slowness in the external service becomes users unable to save. Queue the work and let the save complete.
How do plug-ins cause loops?
By updating the table they are registered on, which fires the plug-in again. The platform will stop runaway depth, but the symptom is confusing and the correct fix is checking the depth or filtering on the specific attributes that should trigger the logic.
When should we use Azure instead?
For anything long-running, heavy or genuinely external. Pushing work to a function or queue keeps the platform responsive and puts the logic somewhere you can scale and monitor properly — plug-ins are best kept small and close to the record.
Do you work with businesses across Cambridgeshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East of England, including Ely and the surrounding Cambridgeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Ely businesses do you usually work with?
Grower and packhouse systems handling seasonal labour, traceability and supermarket compliance requirements. Beyond that we work across Agriculture, Food Production, Tourism & Heritage, Retail and Logistics.
Do you cover the areas around Ely?
Yes — we work throughout East of England, including Cambridge, Peterborough, Norwich. Ely is an urban area of roughly 20,000+, and we take on work across the wider Cambridgeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
