This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2.
The nineteenth of the new functionality in the Application section is Add more columns to pages for better insight.
Different businesses and users need different information to complete business processes. Personalization is a powerful tool that lets people tailor the information that pages contain by dragging fields or columns from a list to the page. Based on feedback from the community, Microsoft have made the Description 2 field available for personalization on more pages.

My Opinion
OK, so the title is “add more columns to pages”, but it only seems to be the Description 2 column which can be added. I’m not sure why this might be a separate new feature and now be something available through the Add Existing Table Fields to Optimize Your Pages new feature already announced for Release 2023 Wave 2?
