@dvlprlife Well, you can't really say that you don't want validation on temporary records, not as a general rule?

Save yourself a few headaches... #businesscentral #msdyn365bc

@JamesCrowter When does registration close tonight?

Directions #EMEA2024 has opened for registration, the buzz is already intense.

Power #msdyn365bc move: Wanna see all primary key fields in the page inspection tool, just search for PK :)

Remember to upgrade :)

#msdyn365bc Brain teaser:

@StefanMaron I still don't understand why this has to be run by a Stefan @JesperSchulz @vnidk ??

[New Blog Post] You might have noticed already that the #msdyn365bc Code History Repository had some downtime. I have made some updates to uptake the automation I have build for the Sandbox repo. Read more here: stefanmaron.com/posts/msdyn365…

@minghuiyu I do know a couple of franchise businesses running BC, works well for them.

@eHougaard Is Business Central a good option for franchise business?

What's coming in Business Central 2024 wave 2, aka BC25 youtu.be/U1Z9M7qR83E?si… #msdyn365bc

Interesting that a Microsoft employee talks about Microsoft as "they" instead of "us" :)

@bertverbeek @DuilioTacconi @machanick @drimmelzwaan But Bert, what version are you guys on?

@DuilioTacconi @machanick @drimmelzwaan @eHougaard There are indeed a few left. We are also in there but hard on our way to move out. But even if you are in the embed app you need follow MS on the versions. 1 version behind is OK.

There's a new version of getting stuck on old #msdyn365bc versions in the cloud... Vendors who are allowed to have their modified base app hosted :(

@TineStaric @bertverbeek @DuilioTacconi @machanick @drimmelzwaan They can. I have even built special functionality into the Simple Object Designer so it works with LS Retail. My apps are generally very generic and require minimal base-app consumption.

@eHougaard @bertverbeek @DuilioTacconi @machanick @drimmelzwaan I thought the embed program didn’t have access to AppSource? Since modified BaseApp can mean the events/objects you depend on are not actually there…

@drimmelzwaan Name one good reason?

@eHougaard There's probably a good reason for it, but they were not supposed to do that. Don't remember the details but there was an agreement in the embed program about not delaying more than one or two majors, something like that

@drimmelzwaan Because it's a html based app ... WebView2 is Chrome/Edge, embedded. Welcome to a world where there's never enough ram or CPU :)

WTF? This is Outlook idling, just one window, all I did was open Outlook I'm getting system messages recommending to re-open Outlook (which I've done twice now) because of extreme memory usage. What the hell is that WebView stuff doing anyway?!?

@KarolakNatalie Well, the article title is "About dates in Business Central" , misleading :)

@eHougaard article: "date and time" --> us: DateTime field

About dates in Business Central learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics… Added information about local time:

@TakiUdon_ When do we need to sit ready for batch 2 tomorrow?

I was never a fan of "var" in C# .... Again this morning i got sniped by it. A var allowed a subtle type change from json to string to happen, and the receiving function happened to have an overload that accepted that string :(

@steveendow It's just the "Entity Text" table, field Text (That's a blob), filter on Source Table Id and Source System Id (of the Item).

#BCALHelp Does anyone know if Item "Marketing Text" data is accessible in a table? The page references a temp table Entity Text (2000000132). I've gone down a rabbit hole trying to trace the page code, but can't see where the data is actually stored. #MSDyn365BC
