I have seen this question pop up quite a few times on the Microsoft Dynamics CRM forum where people are asking how to reports bugs to Microsoft, of course these are not always bugs but sometimes there is one.

I thought I would write a blog to let people how to do it.

The place to raise enhancements is Microsoft Connect

so where/how do you report a bug. I’m not totally sure but I think you have to raise it with the technical support team and raise an issue with them but maybe a CRM MVP who may read this blog could perhaps clarify this.

Trying to find out where to get support or to raise a bug will send you round in loops around the Microsoft various pages on the subject, there doesn’t seem to be any clear or concise page on the subject and the various sites seemed vaguely linked. Quite why it’s so difficult to understand where someone should report bug doesn’t seem to make sense to me but perhaps I’m being stupid

I have been taken to this page a few times

https://community.dynamics.com/crm/p/support.aspx

so if you have a bug I guess you will need to contact technical support, I found this page

Getting support

For help and support information, see Microsoft Dynamics CRM Customer Support.

What is the Microsoft Dynamics definition of an incident?

You can submit a formal Technical Support incident when you experience a problem such as an error message or broken functionality while using Microsoft Dynamics CRM if you believe the problem is caused by a Microsoft product or service. If youâ€™re experiencing multiple but separate problems, submit a separate Technical Support incident for each problem.

Technical Support will not provide general guidance or advice on using or customizing Microsoft Dynamics CRM. For general product guidance and advice, visit the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Resource Center or the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Forums.
