Backup db. Before Start Upgrade 1) clone the T_X table in T_NEW 50000-99999 range (data per company yes) 2) for each company copy data from T_X in T_NEW 3) Delete all Data from Original T_X table 4) Change T_X table property to data per company yes 5) For each company copy data from T_NEW T_X Start Upgrade It's better to sinch tables (without setting data x company NO)

Maybe my question should have been, does it make a difference if the new table has data per company set to yes since the original table has common data. But I understand the logic behind it. Basically, the goal is to set back those 2 tables has data per company instead of global, correct?

Forum Post: RE: Upgrade NAV 2015 to NAV 2018
Yes: when you set a table with data x company to NO, in nav DB is created 1 table common fo all company. When you insert records in this table you can't reset property datapercompany to yes. You've to delete all records.. You can use T_new for saving & restoring data (many upgrade process use this method)

Forum Post: RE: How to calculate the sum of 2 fields in my sales order?
You can only do calcfield if your field is a flowfield. Amount and Qty. to ship are not flow field. Just normal field. You can do CALCSUM only if the field is specified as SumIndexFields in the table (Sales Line) table. Amount should be listed as SumIndexFields, but I don't think "Qty. to ship" is listed. Check this for reference. docs.microsoft.com/.../calcsums-function--record- Or just do the old fashion way. Do a loop and sum it manually.

Forum Post: Moldy but goody or Where can I find some old software?
I joined an organization who has an old Dynamics NAV 5.1 install running for historical reference. The client support area has been completing client upgrades at a rapid pace, and an issue has come to light where the NAV 5.1 client was not being added to the new client PCs. I have been tasked with re-connecting these clients to the running NAV install. My problem is this - no 5.1 client install source can be found. We have the 5.1 NAS source, but only the 5.0 SP1 client. This version will not connect to our server/database and so I am stuck. Does anyone know how I can obtain the 5.1 CSIDE client source to get my users re-connected to our install? Help?! M Weisman Milwaukee, WI

Blog Post: Business Central Modern Client: Remove the designer button
You all know the designer , right? The tool for developers (aka the “in-client visual designer”) that “ provides an easy and convenient way of making immediate adjustments to your design by simply dragging and dropping the components on the page”. Well .. then you probably know there are things to take into account… Issues It actually all comes down to what I call “the worst button in NAV ever created in history of mankind”. The “Design” button: Whoever uses that button, is actually doomed in any kind of scenario. What happens is: you open design mode without any context of “active extension” – which basically means – it will create a new extension. And if you – after designing – save that extension, another invocation of the button will create yet another extension. Extensions after extension .. and your environment gets messier and messier. Ok – I admit – it would just be a sandbox database (in SaaS, this button is only enabled when you opened a sandbox (but what about OnPrem??)) but still, I don’t see any use case to use this designer other than you would design pages for YOUR extension, meaning you would open the Designer from VSCode by “AL: Publish and open in the designer” (or “F6” if you will): When you would do that, you ARE actually giving a context to the Designer (being your currently published extension), which means it will save all the changes you would do, into that extension for you to be able to download to your extension again (with F7 (Download Source code)). Remove the button of evil So, the Designer is good – the button is “evil” (yeah, probably exaggerated a bit, but you get my point ;-)). Now, on SaaS, you don’t have to worry that much. OnPrem, my recommendation would be that you actively make sure, this button does NOT exist in a live environment . When I was searching for how to do this, the only thing that I could find was this on Docs : Now, I knew of the fact we could also hide the “Personalize” button (which is on the same place in the client) by simply edit the navsettings.json. There is actually a very helpful page on Docs that explains what you can configure for your web client: https://docs.microsoft.com/pt-pt/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/administration/configure-web-server . And while I expected the same kind of setting as this personalization, this document doesn’t say anything about how to hide the designer, or any kind of setting in that same file, that handles visibility of that button. Luckily, I have smart colleagues, who found out that there actually IS as setting, in that navsettings.json, that actually handles this: One thing though: PowerShell By editing the file directly, it would work, but only after some services that would have been restarted (I restarted the entire docker container). But if you would use PowerShell like this: Set-NAVWebServerInstanceConfiguration -WebServerInstance NAV -KeyName Designer -KeyValue false It works instantaneously Do know though, when you decide to remove this, you can’t open the designer from VSCode either.. .

Forum Post: Estimating production BOM price breaks
We have hundreds of items in NAV, each item has a "Unit cost" calculated as FIFO. Additional to Items having a Unit cost, there's "Special prices" under the Vendor tab too, as items may have multiple vendors at multiple price breaks. This price break information is brought in when generating a Purchase order. Great. When running "Calculate std cost" on a Production BOM (or it's linked item card), the Unit cost individually pulls in item Unit costs. I now have a Unit cost on a Production BOM which is populated from every Item's FIFO unit cost. If we've already calculated the sales price for this Production BOM, it doesn't matter as much. If we're trying to estimate new pricing for a customer with price breaks, it's a problem. Unfortunately, from what I understand, as the costing method is FIFO, the Item is subject to fluctuating based on how many items we've ordered in the past. The Calculate std cost function isn't looking into the Special prices tab and matching price breaks based on the quantity. Appreciate that there's potentially multiple Vendors under Special prices. Currently, we're having to pull the information out manually into excel and calculate price breaks for customers. I've seen there's a field to calculate % discount based on volume, but we're currently doing it by component. Question 1: Is there another function for calculating the unit cost of a Production BOM that DOES honor price breaks? And would select the cheapest vendor at that price break, pulling information from the Special prices tab? Question 2: Is there another way to do this without pulling it out into excel every time? Any help would be much appreciated!

Blog Post: ArcherPoint Dynamics NAV Developer Digest - vol 257
ArcherPoint Dynamics NAV / Business Central Developer Digest - vol 257 The NAV community, including the ArcherPoint technical staff, is made up of developers, project managers, and consultants who are constantly communicating, with the common goal of sharing helpful information with one another to help customers be more successful. As they run into issues and questions, find the answers, and make new discoveries, they post them on blogs, forums, social media...so everyone can benefit. We in Marketing watch these interactions and never cease to be amazed by the creativity, dedication, and brainpower we’re so fortunate to have in this community—so we thought, wouldn’t it be great to share this great information with everyone who might not have the time to check out the multitude of resources out there? So, the ArcherPoint Microsoft Dynamics NAV Developer Digest was born. Each week, we present a collection of thoughts and findings from NAV experts and devotees around the world. We hope these insights will benefit you, too. SOAP or REST? Bill polls the tribe: “REST (query/page OData and API) vs. SOAP: The customer is on NAV 2018. They want direction on where to start building out an integration that has the ability to do SOAP or REST. The connector has some issues communicating with the query/page OData exposed now (which probably gives me my answer), but to me, it seems to be a choice between an older, more established SOAP and a newer ‘the future’ OData/REST/API. I don't have any first-hand experience of how well the API or page/query OData services work. Which way would you steer a customer? SOAP or REST(query/page/api)?” Suresh responds: “I prefer SOAP at this point because of the flexibility and ability to create our own services; besides, API is still beta, and we don't have lot of endpoints available.” Bill follows: “Do you have any experience defining your own API pages?” Suresh replies: “No experience, but I believe the only difference is the PageType.” Business Central on Docker for Newbies Freddy shares his thoughts in Business Central on Docker for non-experts the reasons most new-to-Docker users resist: You need to know PowerShell There is no GUI for Docker Docker cannot run on your computer You don’t know what image to use There are a million parameters on New-BCContainer Read his full post for everything you need to overcome these fears and get familiar with BC on Docker. D365 Business Central Entitlements Explained Have you ever been surprised to see, “You don’t have permissions…” messages for a BC object you were sure you had permission to run? You are not alone! In his Business Central Entitlements post, Dmitry Chadayev explains the two levels of permissions for application objects, actually called Entitlements in BC SaaS (online), and shows how to ensure you have the permissions/entitlements you need.

Blog Post: Page Extension Vs Page Customization in Business Central
Page Extension Vs Page Customization in Business Central I want to point out the differences between the Page Extension and Page Customization Objects , sometimes the Customization Object, although more limited in functionality, may be sufficient for some customizations. #1 – Page Customization Object The page customization object in Dynamics 365 Business Central allows you to add changes to the page layout and actions. The page customization object has more restrictions than the page extension object ; when you define a new page customization object. You cannot: Add variables, procedures, or triggers Page customizations only apply to the RoleCenter they are specified for. In order to see them, in Dynamics 365 Business Central under My Settings , Role Center change to the specific RoleCenter that a page customization is defined for. Page customization example The following page customization example MyCustomization makes changes to Customer List . By using the moveafter method, Blanket Orders is moved next to the Aged Accounts Receivable action item. And the modify method is used to hide the NewSalesBlanketOrder action item. Example profile TheBoss { Description = ‘The Boss’; RoleCenter = “Business Manager”; Customizations = MyCustomization; } pagecustomization MyCustomization customizes “Customer List” { actions { moveafter(“Blanket Orders”; “Aged Accounts Receivable”) modify(NewSalesBlanketOrder) { Visible = false; } } } https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/devenv-page-customization-object #2 – Page Extension Object The page extension object extends a Dynamics 365 Business Central page object and adds or overrides the functionality . The structure of a page is hierarchical and breaks down into three sections. The first block contains metadata for the overall page; the type of the page and the source table it is showing data from. The next section; the layout , describes the visual parts on the page. The final section details the actions. Example pageextension 50110 CustomerCardExtension extends “Customer Card” { layout { addlast(General) { // control with underlying datasource field(“Shoe Size”; ShoeSize) { ApplicationArea = All; Caption = ‘ShoeSize’; trigger OnValidate(); begin if ShoeSize < 10 then Error(‘Feet too small’); end; } // display-only control (without underlying datasource) field(ShoesInStock; 10) { ApplicationArea = All; Caption = ‘Shoes in stock’; } } modify(“Address 2”) { Caption = ‘New Address 2’; } } https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/devenv-page-ext-object #3 – Best practices for designing pages We recommend that you simplify the user experience by reducing what users see by default . You can promote the information that the users most frequently need to see and hide the less important information. For example: Place common tasks in the ribbon Organize information pages under FastTabs and, by default, hide the FastTabs that are infrequently visited. Use one to three FactBoxes on a page to provide supplementary information and a place for adding notes Add a target Help file for context-sensitive Help for the feature that the page object supports https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/devenv-pages-overview
