D365 | on-premises SSRS error - Keyset does not exist

If the SSRS Server reports the following error in the AX-SSRSReportExtensions\Operational log it is important to check if the certificates used by the SSRS service are accesible from the service account running the SSRS service.
So first of all open the reporting service configuration manager and find out the service name. Than open certificate manager (mmc) an check the personal certificates. there you should see:

• ReportingService Certificate
• DataEncryptionCertificate
• DataSigningCertificate

If they are not there go to Microsoft docs and read the installation instruction for on-prem ;)

If you see these certificates right click each of them and click "All Tasks" --> "Manage Private Keys..." and add the service user with read permissions.

D365 Finance and Operations on-premises software lifecycle policy and on-premises releases

Here you can find detailed information about the current versions of Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations on-premises. Let's hope that one day on-prem and cloud will have the same release dates. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/unified-operations/dev-itpro/migration-upgrade/on-prem-version-update-policy?toc=/fin-and-ops/toc.json#dynamics-365-for-finance-and-operations-on-premises-release-dates

Financial Reportin alias Management Reporter unavailable

If you see the following error in a dev or cloud instance of Dynamics 365 for finance and operations check if the management reporting service is running on the server. You do not have permission to perform this action. 
Work with your administrator to verify your user permissions within Financial Report Designer.

D365 F&O - Debugging in on-premises environments

If you are facing errors in your Dynamics 365 for finance and operations on-prem environment there is currently no real debugging story available. But there is a new article from Tariq Bell on how to debug using WinDbg:

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/axsa/2018/05/16/debug-a-dynamics-365-for-finance-and-operations-on-premises-instance-without-visual-studio/

At least a starting point and a really nice GUI ;)

D365 F&O Deployment to on-prem failed during download

If the deployment of Dynamics 365 for finance and operations fails after preparing phase when the asset is downloading you should check the logs. If there is a message like the one below just verify that the orchestrator nodes are online and click retry.
