  • Supportability Redefined: Way Unsupported

    Posted on December 12th, 2008 Mitch Milam Print Print 1 comment

    This week I was working with one of CRM partners with whom I do a lot of business discussing with one of their customers Dynamics CRM development and best practices, among other things.

    During the second day, as we're reviewing client-side customization, we touched on the subject of supported vs. unsupported customizations.

    In a flash of what can only be called, "brilliance," I redefined unsupported customizations into the following two categories:

     

    Unsupported

    Is your typical, "we need this functionality but Microsoft frowns on this technique."

     

    Way-Unsupported

    Is when you do something that is so "out of the box" that even though it accomplishes the task, you may be in for an ugly surprise when next upgrade cycle takes place.

    Text conversation with my niece this morning:

    Niece: Guess what! I'm finally taking my driving test today.

    Me: Omg. Should I put the hospital on alert?

    Niece: Very funny. It's only the written part.

    Me: So Wynne is safe for another month. Whew! Good luck.

     

    It seems like just yesterday she was small enough for me to tote her around Wal-Mart on my shoulders.
