In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Administration), how do I… Share a Saved List View

Ian Grieve1 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis article is part of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Administration), how do I… series and of the wider In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, how do I… series which I am posting as I familiarise myself with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

A while ago, in this series, I covered how to use list pages in Business Central and also posted some links to advanced filtering techniques; one thing oyu can do with list pages is save your filter options so you don’t need to set them up again, time after time.

I also demonstrated this in the articles on creating goods received not invoiced and goods shipped not invoiced reports.

The issue is that when you save those filters, you are saving them only for yourself; no-one else can see them.

There is a solution to this issue though, and it is as simple as sharing the link to the report; when another user opens the link you’ve sent them, the filters, contained within the link, are applied and they can save the filtered list themselves.

To do this, configure the filters you want and click the Share button in the top right and select Copy link:

Share menu pn list page

This places the link on your Windows clipboard, allowing you to share it in anyway that you want, although it has to be noted, the link will not give people access to a page to which they don’t have access in Business Central.

You can also do a Share to teams:

Splitting a Table on a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Word Template

Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis technically isn’t a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central issue, but I encountered it when working on a Word template from Business Central. The same action will work for any table in Microsoft Word regardless of what data is in the table.

I was doing some work for a client, adapting the layouts of the Word templates used to produce documents such as the sales invoice. The client asked me if it was possible to pin the footer of the document to the bottom of the page instead of having it floating up and down with the invoice lines.

I figured this might be possible to do, if I could have them in a separate table. I had a fiddle around with it and realised the option to split a table was exactly for what I was looking. When you have the cursor inside the table where you want the table to be split, select the Layout tab on the action pane and, in the Merge section, click Split Table:

From the cursor down, the existing table will now be split into two.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2024 Wave 1: Access Worksheet Pages from Mobile Phones

Ian Grieve4 minute read1 Comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis 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 4th 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: Users, automatically
Public Preview: Apr 2024
General Availability: Apr 2024

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 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 24.0 or later and applies to Android phones and iPhones.

Worksheet pages on a phone device

My Opinion

I am not a huge fan of using a mobile phone for anything complex as I think that the screen is far too small to work effectively. However, I also know many other people who will happily do quite involved things on their phone, and this enhancement looks to be for that type of person; it is good to see that more and more of Business Central is becoming widely available on devices of all sizes.

VAT Bus. Posting Group Error in Get Shipment Lines in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Ian Grieve4 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralWhile working with a client recently to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, they reported an error to me during UAT when trying to test the sales process. They’d raised and shipped a sales order and were now trying to use the Get Shipment Lines function on the Sales Invoice page, but when selecting the shipment lines they were receiving this error:

Error using Get Shipment Lines function

VAT Bus. Posting Group must be equal to '' in Sales Shipment Line: Document No.=100022. Current value is 'UK'.

I did a little investigation with them and discovered that the error was for a single customer; shipment lines for other customers could be selected without problem.

It turned out the root cause was that the customer did not have a VAT Bus. Posting Group selected on the customer card; this field would default to the sales order header and then pull through to the order lines as they are added. Because it was missing, the user had manually added the VAT details to the order lines, but not the header. When the sales invoice was raised, the VAT Bus. Posting Group did not default to the header, so when the shipment lines were selected there was a mismatch resulting in the error message.

Once the VAT was added to the header (and the customer card so it would default in future), the sales shipment lines could successfully be added to the invoice.

I had advised the customer that customer templates should be used to default in the required fields on customers as they are created, but they had not done this. A customer template created for each geography (UK, EU, ROW) would have allowed the VAT Bus. Posting Group, and other posting groups and fields like payment terms, to default when the customer was created.

Error Calculating Depreciation in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central: “No journal lines were created”

Ian Grieve4 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralI helped a client implement the Fixed Asset Management module in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central recently; during training I showed them how to configure and use the module and also created configuration packages for them to import both the fixed asset itself as well as the acquisition and depreciation to date.

After importing the assets into Business Central with a net book value up to the last day of the previous month, they tried to run depreciation for the assets, but encountered a problem where no depreciation was calculated:

Error trying to depreciate fixed assets

The depreciation has been calculated
No journal lines were created.

They keyed a new asset onto the system and tried depreciation and that asset did depreciate so there was obviously no general problem with the setup of the module, depreciation book or assets.

Looking at the data in the table, there was no obvious difference between them; there were a few fields different such as dates, values and similar in the Fixed Asset (5600) and FA Depreciation Book (5612) tables, but nothing which would impact the depreciation. It actually took a colleague to spot the difference, as I was reading the field as being the net book value (which is actually in the Book Value field, but was in fact the Ending Book Value field, which is used to set a residual amount for depreciation, below which the asset won’t depreciate.

When the client populated the configuration package, they had not remembered my mentioning this field during training, and for what it was intended, and entered the same value in both the Book Value and Ending Book Value fields, so Business Central was treating the assets as depreciated as far as they should depreciate. A quick configuration package update to the Ending book Value and the assets were able to be depreciated as required.

In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Inventory and Warehouse Management), how do I… Mass Insert Item Pictures

Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralThis post is part of the In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Inventory and Warehouse Management), how do I… series and of the wider In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, how do I… series which I am posting as I familiarise myself with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

Business Central allows pictures to be attached to each item on the Item card page, but doing it individually through this page will be a very slow process, even for quite small systems. Fortunately, there is a function which allows the bulk import of pictures for items.

To use the import, all you need is a zip file containing the items, where the name of the file is the Item Number and the file is an image file such as bmp, jpg or png (the help files aren’t especially helpful as to acceptable types, but I have seen these three used). I would recommend that the images imported not be too large; use a reasonable resolution image and be run them through a minifier to use the best encoding.

When you have your import ready, open the Inventory Setup page and select the General » Import Item Pictures action:

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central Configuration Package Import Error: “The package code in all sheets of the Excel file must match the selected package code…”

Ian Grieve2 minute read0 comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralI’ve been doing some work with a client recently to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. We created a number of different configuration packages to import data into different areas of Business Central which were used without issue.

However, when we came to import the fixed assets, we received an error during import:

Configuration Package error

The package code in all sheets of the Excel file must match the selected package code, GL-FIXED-ASSETS. Modify the package code in the Excel file or import this file from the Configuration Packages page to create a new package.

Item No. Field Missing from the Item Card Page in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Ian Grieve2 minute read1 Comment

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business CentralWhile implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central for a client, they reported an issue during UAT where they couldn’t set the No. for new items as the field was missing from the Item Card (30) page.

My initial thought was that the user had inadvertently removed the field from the page using personalise, but they had asked other users to try and they had the same issue. The other potential cause, was a profile personalization which had removed the field for all users, but this was also not the case, as the field wasn’t available to add back.

I did a test with a role containing no changes and found the same issue:

Item card page with the No. field missing

Error When Connecting Jet Reports to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central for the First Time

Ian Grieve2 minute read0 comment

Jet ReportsWhile implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central recently for a client, we also implemented Jet Reports. After installing the extension in Business Central, I created a data source and tried to log in, but received this error message:

Jet reports sign in error

Jet reports
Sorry, but we're having trouble with signing you in.
AADSTS90099: The application '~~~~~~~' (Jet Reports) has not been authorised in the tenant '~~~~~~~'. Applications must be authorised to access the customer tenant before partner delegated administrators can use them.

It’s actually an obvious one which I should have remembered; the first sign into the data source is the one which grants permissions to sign in and so needs to be done by a Microsoft 365 administrator for the Business Central tenant.

As the Business Central partner, this was not me. After co-ordinating with the client and their Microsoft 365 partner, we got an administrator to sign into the data source for the first time, granting permissions as they did so, after which I was able to confirm the data source worked and giving users at the client access.
