This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 1 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 1.

The third of the new functionality in the Productive with Microsoft 365 section is Allow application and tenant databases to differ in collation.

On-premises customers can use many different collations for their environment, driven by different requirements for country or different ordering/strings operations. In a multitenant setup, until now it wouldn’t be possible to cohost tenant databases with different collations served by the same Business Central server (NST). With this release, you can easily cohost these databases on the same setup, and therefore administer such multitenant/multilanguage setups more efficiently.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically

Feature Details

The collation of a database controls the ordering and equality operations of strings. In earlier versions of Business Central, a multitenant installation required the application database and the tenant databases to have the same database collation. In this release, the Business Central server (the NST) will work even though the application and tenant databases use a different database collation.

The first of the new functionality in the Reporting and data analysis section is Analyze, group, and pivot data on list pages using multiple tabs.

End users and data analysts can analyze data from list pages directly in the client without the need to open the page in Excel or run a report.

The ability to analyze data directly in list pages raises the bar for what you can do without having to switch applications, while still allowing customers and partners to do more in report objects, Excel, Power BI, or other data analysis applications.

Enabled for: Users by admins, makers, or analysts

Feature Details

Analysis mode is a new way of interacting with data on list pages. Instead of running reports using different options and filters, you can simply add multiple tabs that represent different tasks or views on the data. Examples could be "My customers," "Follow-up items," "Recently added vendors," "Sales statistics," or any other view you want.

When you’re ready to analyze data on a list page (where you might have filtered data using a view or filter pane), simply switch to analysis mode:
