Fleet Management + Microsoft Dynamics

Fleet Management Software for Microsoft Dynamics 365

Your business runs on the Microsoft ecosystem. Locate2u adds the fleet operations layer that Dynamics 365 is missing -- real-time GPS tracking, route optimization, and proof of delivery that feeds directly into Dataverse, Power BI, and Teams.

Integration Overview

Why Dynamics 365 Users Need Fleet Management

Dynamics 365 Powers Your Business. Not Your Delivery Fleet.

Microsoft Dynamics 365 is a comprehensive business platform spanning Sales, Customer Service, Finance, Supply Chain Management, and Field Service. Companies that standardize on Microsoft benefit from deep integration with Azure, Power Platform, Teams, and Outlook.

However, Dynamics 365 has no native GPS vehicle tracking, no delivery route optimization engine, no mobile driver app for proof of delivery capture, and no driver behavior analytics. The Supply Chain Management module ends at the shipping dock, and Field Service is built for work order management rather than fleet-level vehicle tracking and delivery routing.

Locate2u extends your Microsoft investment by adding fleet management capabilities that integrate natively with Dataverse, Power Automate, and Power BI -- keeping everything inside the ecosystem your team already knows.

The Problem

Pain Points Dynamics 365 Users Face with Fleet Operations

A Powerful Ecosystem with a Fleet-Sized Blind Spot

  • Supply Chain Management stops at the dock. Dynamics 365 SCM handles procurement, warehousing, and production planning. But once goods are loaded onto a delivery vehicle, the system has no way to track where that vehicle is or when it will arrive.
  • Field Service is not fleet management. Dynamics 365 Field Service manages work orders and technician scheduling, but it lacks vehicle-level GPS tracking, multi-stop route optimization, fuel monitoring, and driver behavior analytics that fleet managers need.
  • No driver app for delivery capture. Dynamics 365 does not provide a mobile application for drivers to navigate routes, capture delivery signatures, take photos, or record delivery notes while on the road.
  • Fleet data scattered outside the Microsoft ecosystem. When companies use standalone GPS trackers or fleet tools, that data lives outside Dataverse and Power BI. Reporting requires exporting CSVs and manual reconciliation.

How It Works

Connect Dynamics 365 to Locate2u in Three Steps

  • 1 Connect via Dataverse and Power Automate. Authenticate using Azure AD. Locate2u reads from and writes to Dataverse tables through Microsoft's standard APIs. Power Automate flows trigger delivery job creation when sales orders reach the shipped status.
  • 2 Configure field mapping and workflows. Map your Dynamics 365 entities -- accounts, contacts, sales orders, addresses -- to Locate2u delivery fields. Set up notification rules for Teams channels and Outlook email alerts on delivery milestones.
  • 3 Go live with fleet tracking in your Microsoft workspace. Orders sync to Locate2u, routes are optimized, drivers deliver via the mobile app, and completion data flows back to Dynamics 365 and Power BI. Your entire fleet operation stays inside the Microsoft ecosystem.

FAQ

Dynamics 365 Fleet Management Questions

Microsoft Dynamics 365 does not include native fleet management capabilities. The Supply Chain Management module handles warehouse operations, procurement, and production planning, but it lacks real-time GPS vehicle tracking, route optimization, driver behavior monitoring, and a mobile driver app. Dynamics 365 Field Service manages work orders but does not provide fleet-level vehicle tracking or delivery route planning.
Locate2u integrates with Dynamics 365 through Microsoft Dataverse APIs and Power Automate flows. Sales orders and delivery schedules sync from Dynamics to Locate2u, while delivery confirmations, proof of delivery, and real-time status updates flow back. The integration works within the Microsoft ecosystem, supporting Azure Active Directory authentication and Power BI reporting.
Yes. Locate2u provides a Power BI connector that pushes fleet performance data including delivery success rates, route efficiency metrics, driver scorecards, and fuel consumption directly into your Power BI workspace. This allows you to build custom dashboards that combine Dynamics 365 business data with real-time fleet operations data.
Locate2u can send delivery notifications and dispatch alerts through Microsoft Teams channels and Outlook email. Using Power Automate, you can set up custom workflows that notify managers of delivery exceptions, alert customer service teams about delays, or send daily fleet performance summaries to Teams channels.
Mid-to-large businesses that run their operations on the Microsoft stack typically combine Dynamics 365 with fleet management. This includes wholesale distributors managing delivery fleets, manufacturing companies shipping direct to customers, facility management companies with mobile service teams, and food and beverage distributors with daily delivery routes.
