Enable and configure new MCP server in Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations

Writing on his blog, Sukrut Parab continued his examination of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and how you can use it with Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations.

He wrote that in earlier versions of the MCP server for D365 F&O, there were only 13 built-in tools, such as checking on-hand inventory, creating transfer orders, and matching vendor invoices. 

Parab then wrote about the two major improvements that Microsoft recently announced to help solve this issue. He then explained how to enable the new MCP server, which is in preview.
