This incorporation allows accessing Microsoft Office apps – OneDrive and SharePoint, within Dynamics 365. Which means, a user can access and create a document, spreadsheet or presentation in Dynamics 365 using different applications on different devices, such as Microsoft PowerPoint for iPad or Microsoft Word for iPhone. Once the task is done, the user can return to the CRM app simply by tapping on the “back” button.
