In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (Inventory and Warehouse Management), how do I… Understand Warehouse Receipts and Put-aways in Advanced Warehousing

Friday 10th Nov 2023Monday 9th Oct 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

This 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.

We’ve so far taken a look at inventory put-aways and required receipts being processed separately. The next level of warehousing moves out of the basic warehousing which we’ve seen so far, into advanced warehousing by combining receipts with put-aways.

The receipts are the same, but the put-aways are warehousing put-aways rather than the inventory ones we looked at in the earlier article.

This configuration of requiring receipts and put-aways is generally used by larger businesses who require more controls in the warehouse. While in the coming articles, I will just be showing the process using a location, it is commonly used in combination with the use of bins. The only difference between using bins and not, is that in the receipt and put-away process, bins will (generally based on setup) default and be changed if necessary.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Show List of Keys While Working on AL Code

Thursday 9th Nov 2023Saturday 14th Oct 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

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 Development section is Show list of keys while working on AL code.

IntelliSense offers great productivity features. On request, Microsoft have now added support for suggesting available keys when calling methods accepting key parameter. This improves speed and accuracy of coding and thus productivity.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Aug 2023
General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

AL methods accepting keys, such as SetCurrentKey(), now have IntelliSense listing key parameters that are available. Until now it has only shown the list of fields.

Note that IntelliSense still suggests table fields, in case the developer wants to just perform sorting on specific fields. Keys are only suggested for the first parameter; subsequent parameters just suggest fields.

Example of IntelliSense showing available keys for SetCurrentKey() method

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Segment AL Code and Reduce Naming Conflicts with Namespaces

Thursday 9th Nov 2023Thursday 9th Nov 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

The eighteenth of the new functionality in the Development section is Segment AL code and reduce naming conflicts with namespaces.

AL for Business Central will now support namespaces, similar to other code languages. Namespaces provide a way of organizing objects and code in a logical and hierarchical manner. They can be used to help avoid naming conflicts between different extensions, making it easier to maintain and understand extensions, including the relationship between different objects.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Aug 2023
General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

An AL file can now define a namespace at the top, which will apply to all objects in the code file. A given object can only belong to one namespace, but the same namespace can be used for multiple AL files and objects.

When objects are resolved, the closest scope is used first. Therefore, to resolve to a similarly named object in a dependent extension, the reference must use a fully qualified name. Alternatively, it’s possible to define using directives to include external namespaces and thereby omit fully qualifying names.

Because namespaces are useful for logical segmentation of extensions, the AL Explorer also shows namespaces for objects and allows grouping objects by namespace, making it easier to discover related objects, focus on app subareas, and identify inconsistencies when adding new objects.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Document Your Extensions With the ALDoc Tool for Partners

Wednesday 8th Nov 2023Saturday 14th Oct 2023 Ian Grieve4 minute read0 comment

The seventeenth of the new functionality in the Development section is Document your extensions with the ALDoc tool for partners.

Business Central has a large and continuously growing number of ISV apps on AppSource, some of which are being built upon, both by apps from the same publisher, other publishers and resellers (in the form of per-tenant extensions). To aid consuming apps downstream, documentation is a major benefit, but until now it has been a large manual process to create and keep that in sync with app changes, unless the publisher has invested in automation themselves.

Based on the recent investments for generated documentation for the Business Central base, system, and other first-party applications, Microsoft are giving publishers a new ALDoc tool. This allows generating documentation from symbolic and syntactical information, code comments, and overall application structure based on input .app files. Publishers can host the resulting documentation either internally—for example, for R&D usage—or externally for downstream partners.

Generating content based on source code has many advantages such as accuracy, 100 percent reflection of the current codebase, less error-prone documentation, and time savings.

Feature Details

It’s Microsoft’s pleasure to announce that with the latest prerelease update of the AL Language extension for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Microsoft have included a preview of the ALDoc tool for partners.

The ALDoc tool generates documentation from symbolic and syntactical information, code comments, and overall application structure based on input .app files. You can use it to generate internally or externally facing reference documentation for your solution.

The tool also generates a help site with the reference articles, sorted by the application structure, based on the provided custom template.

Also, as usual, Microsoft want to hear what you think. Use AL issues for tool feedback.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Use SecretText Type to Protect Credentials and Sensitive Textual Values From Being Revealed

Wednesday 8th Nov 2023Wednesday 8th Nov 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

The sixteenth of the new functionality in the Development section is Use SecretText type to protect credentials and sensitive textual values from being revealed.

With an increasing amount of integrations to external systems, it’s not uncommon in AL code to work with secrets such as credentials and other sensitive textual values. Given the need to protect these from being revealed through debugging, the latter has often been blocked through resource exposure policies, at the cost of easy troubleshooting. To support enabling debugging, while protecting credentials and other sensitive textual values from being revealed, Microsoft are introducing a new SecretText type for variables. In addition, some of the common scenarios in the system app will get support for passing in SecretText parameters for credentials—for example, the HttpClient and Isolated Storage types.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Aug 2023
General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

A new type, SecretText, has been added to protect credentials and other sensitive textual values from being revealed through debugging. The declaration syntax will be similar to the Text data type, with the sole difference that it won’t support constraints on the length.

SecretText will be usable as a:

Variable value
Return value
Parameter value

Its use will be limited to carrying, for example, credentials from the point of creation to the destination method. The destination method must accept a SecretText value.

Warehouse Receipt Preview Posting Error in Warehouse Receipt in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Wednesday 8th Nov 2023Monday 9th Oct 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

When writing this post on warehouse receipts I came across an oddity when previewing the posting of the receipt.

If I created a warehouse receipt for an order, I can successfully preview the posting; if I created a new receipt for a second receipt and did a preview of the posting, the preview was successful. However, if I created one receipt with both orders, then I received the following error:

Error when preview posting a warehouse receipt which includes two or more orders

The record in table Purch. Rcpt. Header already exists. Identification fields and values: No.='***'

I was able to replicate this error with any warehouse receipt containing two or more receipts. I spent a while investigating before realising that the issue was only with the posting preview; if I actually tried to post the receipt then the posting was successful.

I discussed this with a couple of colleagues and we all agree that it is odd, but it appears to be a designed behaviour. The *** in quotes doesn’t show anywhere on the receipt, it just seems to be a set of characters which it uses as a placeholder and which causes the error.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Track Source and Build Metadata on Extensions

Tuesday 7th Nov 2023Saturday 14th Oct 2023 Ian Grieve5 minute read0 comment

The fifteenth of the new functionality in the Development section is Track source and build metadata on extensions.

To help track extensions that are created as part of DevOps pipelines, Microsoft are introducing Source and Build properties in the app.json manifest of extensions. This allows easily finding the relevant source repo, commit ID, and build system used to create the extension.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Aug 2023
General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

The app.json manifest of extensions now contains two new properties, Source and Build. These can be used to track source location and the build context.

For source, the following are supported:

repositoryUrl, which is the URL of the repository where the source code of the project can be found.
commit, which is an ID of the source code for the current version of the project, that allows getting back to the commit that triggered building the extension.

For build, the following are supported:

by, which is useful for tracking the build agent/system that orchestrated the build; for example, AL-Go for GitHub.
url, which can be used for the URL to the build system invocation where the build can be found.

You can define these values directly in the app.json, but given the dynamic nature, the usual scenario would be to set these as part of build pipelines via command line parameters for the used alc.exe compiler executable. The values passed here will overwrite any values in the app.json source file.

If using BcContainerHelper, the functions Compile-AppInBcContainer and Compile-AppWithCompilerFolder now take parameters for "SourceRepositoryUrl", "SourceCommit", "BuildBy", and "BuildUrl". These are now being set if you use AL:Go for GitHub to build your extensions.

In this release none of these values are yet surfacing in the Extension Management page, in TAC, or via PowerShell commands like NAV-AppInfo. If you want to read the values, the option is currently to use the BcContainerHelper "Extract-AppFileToFolder", which will allow getting the app.json file with the settings.

Here’s an example of build and source metadata in app.json. This is normally set by the build process and not manually.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Get Smarter Method Signature Recommendations in IntelliSense

Monday 6th Nov 2023Saturday 14th Oct 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

The thirteenth of the new functionality in the Development section is Get smarter method signature recommendations in IntelliSense.

One of the most common uses of IntelliSense when authoring code is getting parameter help on methods. IntelliSense is a great help, but not when showing options that don’t apply. Until now in AL, when there were multiple method overloads, the user would have to switch between them to get help matching the chosen overload. In this release, IntelliSense will be smarter and actually prioritize the first valid overload.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Aug 2023
General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

The AL Language extension will now reorder and prioritize relevant overloads when the developer starts typing a method invocation. If the typed expression corresponds to a valid overload, it will always be the first recommendation and the correct active parameter will be highlighted.

New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 2: Get IntelliSense for Adding Variables in Visual Studio Code AL Debugger Console

Monday 6th Nov 2023Tuesday 7th Nov 2023 Ian Grieve3 minute read0 comment

The twelfth of the new functionality in the Development section is Get IntelliSense for adding variables in Visual Studio Code AL debugger console.

Usually when debugging code, the developer wants to see variable contents by adding it in the debug console window. To help raise discoverability and make it easier to add variables, the debugger console window now support IntelliSense.

Enabled for: Admins, makers, marketers, or analysts, automatically
Public Preview: Aug 2023
General Availability: Oct 2023

Feature Details

The console supports IntelliSense for object types and members that can be evaluated in the context of the debugger: fields, locals, globals, and member symbols that are not methods on a data type.

Microsoft still don’t allow evaluations of methods in the console.

The debugger watch window is not supported for now, due to lack of integration points with Visual Studio Code.

Use IntelliSense to add and inspect AL variables in the Visual Studio Code debugger console
