Project Operations dual-write maps updates
There are no modifications to Dual-write maps in the Project Operations December 2024 release.
For a current list and versions of Project Operations dual-write maps, see Project Operations dual-write map versions.
Always run the latest version of the map in your environment and enable all related table maps as you update your Project Operations Dataverse solution and Finance solution version. Some features and capabilities might not work correctly if the latest version of the map isn't activated. You can view the active version of the map in the Version column on the Dual-write page. To activate a new version of the map, select Table map versions, select the latest version, and then save the selected version. If you customized an out-of-box table map, reapply the changes. For more information, see Application lifecycle management.
If you encounter an issue when you start the map, follow the instructions in the Missing table columns issue on maps section of the Dual-write troubleshooting guide.
