What an absolute game changer! This might be old news for some people here, but I only stumbled on it today. Huge time saver. Organize your favorite components into a Component Library, which can then be shared with co-developers in your environment for importing into their apps. Best is if you update a component in the library, the changes filter through to all apps (in the same environment) that access that component. @Darren Neese / @Kurt Larson - a PPC demo suggestion. So slick! 🧐 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/canvas-apps/component-library#component-library-permissions

Is there any point in trying to build a CRM using Power Apps (with SharePoint as a database)? I don't have any experience or knowledge with Microsoft Dynamics, so can't begin to equate any potential shortcomings in my mind. There just seems to be a huge need out there for cost-effective CRM systems, but I don't want to waste time trying to build a CRM using Power Apps if there are important features I won't be able to get right. I feel that if I have to resort to premium connectors, then clients might as well just sign up for a ready-to-go Zoho CRM. Does anyone have any useful insight or personal experience to share with regards to CRM systems built with Power Apps (and SharePoint), and what limitations might exist?

@Darren Neese / @Kurt Larson : If you've already covered something like this in a previous tutorial, please can you direct me to the link? If not, then I have a 'Suggestion for New Content' request: ===== FIRST REQUEST ===== I'm building a contract management solution (in SharePoint) which will record contract values - as at the date the contract was awarded. Is it possible to connect to an online currency conversion tool, via a Power App that will automatically convert the contract values to any selected currency? An example use case would be when the contractor is submitting a proposal for work in a different country and needs to include examples of previous work completed, but is required to reflect contract values in the currency of that country. NB: The currency would need to be converted as at the date the contract was awarded, i.e. not today's date. I found this free embeddable widget tool, but not too sure how it could be applied within a Power App or how/if I can connect it to my table of contract values: https://www.oanda.com/foreign-exchange-data-services/embeddable-currency-converter-widget/ I also found a few tutorials for live currency converters set up via an Excel spreadsheet, so could possibly link to an Excel spreadsheet sitting in a shared location in the background? e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onjlQNE-dFY - but hopefully there's a more efficient way (which is also free of premium licensing). ===== SECOND REQUEST ===== A further add-on to the above request is to be able to build some kind of "Inflation Calculator" into the system that would convert a historical contract value to a value relative to today's economy. e.g. If the contract value in 2005 was $10,000 then in 2024 that contract would be equivalent to about $16,000 now.
