A System Admin Guide to Managing Personal Settings in Dynamics 365

Did you know that many Dynamics 365 system admin users struggle with settings that impact productivity and efficiency? Small misconfigurations—like incorrect time zones and email tracking issues—can cause major workflow disruptions.

As a system admin, ensuring that all users have the right settings is crucial for maintaining a seamless CRM experience. However, manually updating each user’s preferences can be time-consuming. That’s why XRMToolBox and the User Settings Utility make it easy to manage and update settings in bulk!

Why Managing Personal Settings Matters for System Admins

Many users don’t realize how personal settings impact their day-to-day CRM experience. As a Dynamics 365 system admin, proactively managing these settings can prevent unnecessary issues and improve overall efficiency. Here are just a few common problems that arise when settings are left untouched:

  • Incorrect Time Zones: Users see data in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) instead of their local time, leading to scheduling confusion and missed deadlines. As a system admin, ensuring users are set to the correct time zone eliminates these headaches.
  • Limited Records Per Page: By default, Dynamics 365 displays only 50 records per page, making data searches unnecessarily slow. A system admin can quickly increase this to 250 records per page, improving data accessibility.
  • Email Tracking Issues: Some users may not have email tracking properly configured, causing missed communications and broken workflows. A system admin can standardize these settings to ensure consistent email tracking across all users.

By taking control of these settings, system admins can improve user adoption, reduce frustration, and optimize CRM performance for the entire organization.
