Go beyond traditional D365 data comparison.
D365 F&O Forms
D365 F&O Data Entities
Most comparison approaches focus on only one layer of Dynamics 365. The D365 Comparison Tool goes further — from the form your user works with, to the data entity behind it, to the underlying table, to Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement.
D365 F&O Tables
Dynamics 365 CE Tables
OVERVIEW
Four powerful comparison capabilities. One platform.
D365 F&O Form-to-Form comparison
Compare data directly at the form level across Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations environments.
D365 F&O Data Entity comparison
Compare standard and custom D365 F&O Data Entities across Development, Test, UAT, Sandbox, Pre-Production, and Production.
D365 F&O Table comparison
Compare standard and custom D365 F&O Tables for deeper technical and data-level validation.
D365 CE comparison
Compare standard and custom Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Tables across CRM environments.
PRODUCT TOUR

A guided wizard to configure a run, an interactive dashboard to read the results, scheduled runs with automated logs, and categorized comparison outputs.
D365 F&O Form-to-Form comparison
Compare what your users actually see.
One of the most powerful capabilities of the D365 Comparison Tool is form-level comparison for Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations. Compare data from a D365 F&O form in one environment against the corresponding form in another, and identify:
- Missing records
- Additional records
- Modified records
- Field-level differences
- Unexpected data differences
- Environment inconsistencies
D365 F&O Data Entity comparison
Compare standard and custom data entities.
Compare Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations Data Entities across environments to validate migrations, deployments, integrations, and environment refreshes. Coverage includes:
- Standard D365 F&O Data Entities
- Custom D365 F&O Data Entities
- Master data
- Reference data
- Configuration data
- Transactional business data
- Migration datasets
D365 F&O Table-to-Table comparison
Deep comparison at the table level.
When you need to go deeper, compare Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations Tables directly across environments. Table-level comparison gives technical teams visibility into differences that may not be obvious through forms or data entities. Use it for:
- Technical validation
- Customization testing
- Configuration verification
- Data troubleshooting
- Deployment verification
- Environment consistency checks
- Root-cause investigation
Dynamics 365 CE comparison
Bring ERP and CRM comparison together.
The D365 Comparison Tool is not limited to Finance & Operations. Compare Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Tables across environments from the same web application. Coverage includes:
- Standard Dynamics 365 CE Tables
- Custom Dynamics 365 CE Tables
- Custom columns and business data
- CRM configuration and reference data
COMPARISON MATRIX
A true 360° Dynamics 365 comparison experience.
Four comparison layers across two Dynamics 365 platforms, each answering a different question about your environments — from the form a user works with to the table where the data lives.
| Comparison layer | Platform | What you can compare |
|---|---|---|
| Form-to-Form | D365 Finance & Operations | Data presented through D365 F&O forms |
| Data Entity-to-Entity | D365 Finance & Operations | Standard and custom Data Entities |
| Table-to-Table | D365 Finance & Operations | Standard and custom F&O Tables |
| Table-to-Table | D365 Customer Engagement | Standard and custom CE Tables |
Stop comparing Dynamics 365 manually
No more jumping between spreadsheets, exports, scripts, database queries, and separate ERP and CRM comparison tools. One centralized platform replaces all of it:
- Form comparison
- Data entity comparison
- F&O table comparison
- CE table comparison
- Environment comparison
- Migration validation
- Deployment validation
- Configuration validation
- Continuous monitoring
WHO IT SERVES
Compare at the level you need.
Configuring an environment, migrating into it, testing it, and signing it off each demand a different depth of detail. The platform covers every level, so each team can start where it is already fluent.
Talk to SalesFunctional consultants
Use Form-to-Form Comparison to validate business data through familiar D365 F&O forms.
Technical consultants
Use Table-to-Table Comparison to investigate underlying data and technical differences.
Data migration teams
Use Data Entity Comparison to verify migrated datasets between source and target environments.
CRM & Power Platform teams
Use CE Table Comparison to validate standard and custom records across environments.
QA & testing teams
Use Forms, Data Entities, and Table comparisons across F&O and CE to strengthen regression testing and release validation.
Solution architects
Gain a broader view of consistency across the Dynamics 365 application landscape.
DIFFERENCE TYPES
See every difference clearly.
Whether you compare a Form, Data Entity, F&O Table, or CE Table, results are categorized the same way — so you can act on meaningful differences instead of sifting through raw exports.
Source only
Missing records
Records present in the source environment but missing from the target.
Target only
Additional records
Records found in the target but not in the source.
Matched pair
Modified records
Matching records containing different values.
Field level
Field-level differences
See exactly which fields differ between matching records.
Setup data
Configuration differences
Detect variations in application configuration and setup data across environments.
LIFECYCLE
Built for the complete Dynamics 365 lifecycle.
Comparison is not a one-off event — every stage has its own validation question. Compare once when you need answers, and automate comparisons when you need continuous confidence.
Before deployment
Compare environments and establish a baseline before releasing changes.
After deployment
Validate Forms, Data Entities, and Table data across F&O and CE to identify unexpected differences.
During data migration
Compare source and target datasets to detect missing, additional, or modified records.
After environment refresh
Validate critical data and configuration to confirm the refreshed environment is ready.
During testing
Use comparison results to support functional testing, technical testing, regression testing, and release validation.
During production operations
Schedule recurring comparisons to monitor critical data and identify environment drift.
FAQS
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Dynamics 365 applications does the D365 Comparison Tool support?
Both. It compares Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations — at the Form, Data Entity, and Table level — and Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement Tables, from the same web application.
Do I need to know the underlying tables to run a comparison?
No. Form-to-Form Comparison lets you start from the D365 F&O form you already work with, so functional consultants, QA teams, business analysts, and business users can validate environments without first identifying the underlying table or data entity.
Which environments can be compared?
Any pair across your landscape — Development, Test, UAT, Sandbox, Pre-Production, and Production. Common pairs include Development to UAT, UAT to Production, and Sandbox to Production.
What kinds of differences does it detect?
Missing records, additional records, modified records, field-level differences between matching records, and configuration differences across environments. Every difference is categorized automatically.
Can comparisons run automatically instead of on demand?
Yes. Comparisons can be scheduled daily, weekly, or monthly, with automated email notifications, detailed difference reports, critical mismatch alerts, and historical results retained for trend analysis.
