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 eleventh of the new functionality in the User experiences section is Access worksheet pages from mobile phones.

Expanding access to more Business Central areas from a mobile device is essential these days as more users are choosing this way of working. Until now, you couldn’t open worksheet pages from your phone. Now you can, making it more convenient to work with Business Central from anywhere using the device of your choice.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Nov 2023
General Availability: Dec 2023

Feature Details

With this feature, we’ve enabled special, simplified access to pages of the type ‘worksheet’ from mobile phones. Previously, this page type was only available on the Business Central mobile app from tablets or desktops.

Using a method similar to document pages, worksheet pages are rendered in a simplified version that includes a shortened header section, all worksheet lines, and a footer summary section.

To edit data, simply tap on the desired area, make changes, and confirm using the save or back button. This feature allows even complex worksheet pages to be easily operated on mobile phones.

This feature requires Business Central version 23.1 or later and applies to Android phones and iPhones

Since I started working with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central last year, I’ve also been learning some of the add-ons which are commonly used. One of those add-ons is Payment Management from Continia Software, which will launch in the UK as soon as it gets clearance from the FCA.

They seem pretty well organised and have a Continia Learn which is very much along the same lines as Microsoft Learn; you can also do an exam for each of their products which results in a credential which you can register with Credly.

I passed the Document Capture certification in March and the Expense Management one in October, and have, earlier this month when I had some free time to go through the training materials, passed the one for Payment Management:

I think next on my list is going to be some Power Automate exams from Microsoft. I still need to have a look at which ones fit my role best, but if anyone has any suggestions, do please let me know.
