5. A user creates or updates a Dataverse record but some field values change automatically. How would you troubleshoot the issue?

I would check the following:

  1. Check the column type
    Check whether the field is a calculated or formula column. Its value may be changing automatically based on other data.
  2. Check business rules
    A business rule may be setting or changing the field value.
  3. Check plug-ins
    A plug-in may be running when the record is created or updated and changing the data.
  4. Check classic workflows or other Dataverse processes
    An existing process may be updating the record automatically.
  5. Check Power Automate flows
    Check whether a flow triggered by the Dataverse record is updating the field.
  6. Check the record’s audit history
    If auditing is enabled, review the audit history to see when the field changed and what caused the change.
