Question
You are a consultant. A client asks you to remove several solutions in one of their Microsoft Dataverse environments.
The client wants to know what effect removing the solutions will have on the rest of the system.
You need to explain the results of removing the solutions.
Which components will be affected? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Explanation
Unmanaged solution with a custom table in a parent-child relationship: The solution only. When an unmanaged solution is deleted, only the solution container is removed. All the unmanaged customizations in it, including the custom table, its relationship and the lookup column that implements it, remain in effect and belong to the default solution, and no data is deleted.
Managed solution patch that updates a column label: The solution and the updated column label. A patch contains only changes layered on top of its parent managed solution and cannot delete components. Uninstalling the patch removes that layer, so the label reverts to the value from the parent solution, while the column, its data, and the forms and views that use it remain.
ISV managed solution with a custom table and site map changes: The solution, the table, and any data in the table. When a managed solution is uninstalled, all the customizations and extensions it contains are removed, and the data stored in custom tables that are part of that solution is lost. The custom table and its data are therefore removed along with the solution (its site map layer is removed as well).
