This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 1 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 1.
The 2nd of the new functionality in the Development section is debug the system application.
Have you missed being able to debug into the System application? Many have, and with the recent introduction of the SecureText data type, Microsoft will enable debugging of the System application, benefiting both development and troubleshooting of applications, as well as Open Source contributions to the System application itself.
Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Apr 2024
General Availability: Apr 2024
Feature Details
With this, you’ll be able to step into the System application code base when debugging to understand code flow and inspect variables, unless these are protected by the new SecureText type.
Having access to debug the System application helps both during development and troubleshooting of AppSource and customer-specific applications, as well as with contributing to the System application itself via https://github.com/microsoft/ALAppExtensions.
