Welcome to my channel, where I empower you with the skills and knowledge to navigate the evolving landscape of Business Central (BC) development. Since embarking on my journey within the Microsoft Dynamics community in 1990, I've had the privilege of working with every version of the system, gaining insights from its various facets.
Away from KZread, my focus is divided between two businesses. Hougaard.com, where I develop Apps and Tools designed to enhance your ERP without the cost and hassle of custom development. And EFOQUS, where we create word-class Business Central projects for customers across North America.

If you right click the AL Extension in the Extension part of vscode there is an option to 'Install Another Version..'. I haven't tried it but I assume that this makes it easier to switch.
Wow, Erik! That was an hour well spent! As always, your videos are incredibly informative. I particularly liked the way you coded everything - we might just have to experiment with that in our future tests for page field orders. Thanks!
Hi Erik How to apply "And" operate in setfilter ? Eg : I'm doing like this Rec.setfilter(tripno, dnl.tripno::1); Rec.setfilter(tripno, dnl.tripno::2); I need to do multiple filter based on condition How can we use "and" operater in setfilter like you did for "or" operater
Dear Eric, if i have an RDLC report, Is there any way from report layout selection to export the RDLC layout as word Layout? we tried it and we get the report .docx but empty, can be filled same RDLC layout includes fields from report data items? Regards, Nav
Thank you! I was having an issue with non-ascii characters making generated emails fail, and didnt just want to implement a catch-1 check. This is exactly what i needed!
Hey Erik I just got the, "What have you done for us in QA lately?", spiel yesterday, excellent timing! 😀
i YELLED! LOL next time do it in live stream so we can collaborate? :)
Hello from Calgary! thank you for your content, if you don't mind could you help me with my situation: I've been a developer working with 1C:Enterprise (very common system in post Soviet union countries), I am interested in showcasing my skills and demonstrating my adaptability. Could you suggest what aspects or projects would make a good showcase for a developer like me transitioning into MS Dynamics 365 Business Central? thank you in advance!
Success in the Business Central comes from an deep understanding of the fundamentals, learn what it takes to customize the sales posting routine...
there is field Sequence in the PageFields (0-based)
This is amazing! Not just the concrete possibilities, but your relaxed coding style and your genuine smile at the end. Thank you Erik!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Please Make Video to authenticate JWT token.
Thank you very much for this video. I got the implementation of Business Charts assigned as my qualification's final project and the lack of documentation really threw me off. After a little digging, I believe the bubble chart type is not even considered in the underlying .js file, so it's not like you had any chance except breaking it with that option. Did you ever figure out what the second parameter is used for?
Nope
i know this is a bit of an old video but I was hoping to hear more about what the virtual table IS. You mentioned in the beginning that we have these native tables that 'exist' like Customers and what now. Then, went on to create a table but I didnt hear you explain the difference between what you created and what already exists. What would the use case be for a virtual table in the power platform?
These virtual tables are NOT the power platform virtual tables...
+1 for Field Service Integration
Once again, a great video, short and too the point which solved my immediate question! Thanks Erik.
Dear @eric, we have Github repository, and we need to publish it for many versions of BC, we don't need to create a repository for each version, since only the runtime, and platform in app.json will be changed in each version. so, is there any way to skip all common files in same repository, and switch between versions to add more customizations? Regards, Nav
Branches?
I should show you the one I built to create email accounts in BC…
I thought you were going to build your own Chrome extension
Maybe next time, what should I build?
Here is one for you… color code pages… change the vendor related pages to yellow, the customers, red…etc!
@@Hougaard For me it is clear. We need a left menu like in D365. And it needs to be adjustable by the user :)
I always wonder, why that is not a Page Property or a View Property.
I think it would be great if they allowed to build html layouts. Why not? both Word and RDL layouts are very painful to manage. Also, BC is pointing to the future, and dealing with RDL looks like stone age.
A nerve saver extension, I'm in! Very nice video, thank you!
tks a lot
It would be very nice if you could put the Link to the Website somewhere where the watchers of the video could access it very easy. Finding the right version is quite Difficult. What did you use as USER ID?
Ohh.. some of the old videos doesn't have the github link: github.com/hougaard/KZread-Video-Sources
This tool is no bueno. AL XML Documentation was much easier to use, use it right in vs code, create docs only for the one codeunit I care about. MS really went out an overcomplicated this for no reason.
It's the tool they built for themselves. I think this needs to be part of a pipeline, it's already build into AL-Go now.
Hi, I hope you are doing good, could you please make a video of Alternating row colors in Business Central Reports, Kindly.
Isn't that just a table style in Word?
tanks, this is great . This amazing . The best video
3 years on and still solving problems! I just used this technique to import some data that required special processing.
Hi Erik , thanks again fot this video , can you do a video about singing an APP with a code with hardware token? Or do you know if there is a good checklist for it.. (it's a mystery to me)
Check this: katson.com/code-signing-in-2024/
@@Hougaard Thanks Erik , Azure Vault seems to be the new standard I suppose..
I remember on Pages and also Reports in BC16 and probably BC17 as well, [InDataset] was required to make things work, otherwise fields would not Dynamically disappear and etc. Probably it has been already updated on BC18+ Versions and currently it's being depreciated. So If someone is still on BC14 .. BC17 I would still use those.
Every time before I code something that I haven't coded before, I ALWAYS check your channel first on how to do it. And I am NEVER disappointed. Thanks for another great explainer!
no code?
It's there (On github)
@@Hougaard how to use jwt token in BC?
Thank you so much for theses videos. They are very helpful.
Hi Erik. How about a video of the use of the page triggers 'OnFindRecord' and 'OnNextRecord' (e.g. on the Item List). Thanks :)
Infinity loop so smooth that it doesn't have time to report it (6:33)
Great 😄 I do use Rec when I work on temporary records. Often you can fix the "weird" behavior by remembering your current state, manipulation on whatever you want, and then make a get to return to your state as it was before execution.
Funny how the 'Date Filter' only shows when you select multiple records :) Another place where Rec is often being messed with, is the posting rutines OnRun SalesHeader := Rec; // Silly global variabel Code(); Rec := SalesHeader; // Overwrites Rec with whatever changes happened to SalesHeader during the posting
Hi there, this help me a lot, i do this 3 montbs ago and it wprks BUT now it is crashing, it opens and add the body correctly but if i want to change the sender,m or add a receivers even if i go back it crash and only shows "working on it" any idea of how fix it?
I find that the issue occurs when I set "true" on the email message method but I need to convert the word template :(
Update, after the weekend on Monday morning it works! I didn't make any changes
I believe Microsoft had a html editor issue
Hey Erik thank you for explaining the altool. Do you known why the WebDeploy.exe is no more there and which tool is used instead?
no
Funny that Microsoft is depending on Newtonsoft.JSON although there is System.Text.Json :)
Thanks for the nice video, I really liked the poetry of dictionaries.
Hey Eric, we are currently consideriung if this tool can help us in our pipelines. I guess it will. Instead of spinning up a container you can now just download BC artifacts, un-package the visx and use the altool to build up a dependency tree from an app or runtime file. GetLatestSupportedRuntimeVersion gets handy if you have scripts that updates the application and runtime in you app.json. Runtime can be now updated based on the application version. CreateSymbolPackage might be become usefull if someone creates a repository/service for symbols to download symbols from this service instead from a BC environment.
Hey Erik, great content as always! One thing - sometimes video has a slight delay from audio, any way to fix that for future videos?
Working on it!
[EN] Thanks Eric! Once again great video. [PL] Dzięki bardzo Andrzej! AZ tool robi mega robotę!
Any news on the field guide (for v24), or are you no longer updating that book?
Working on it, should be updated "soon" :)
Greetings sir, i need help with a topic, how to backup and restore database based in Business Central Online, all the info i found its on-premise
Backups are done automatically in the cloud, and you restore from the Admin Center.
Could you please provide the code? I could not find it in the Git repository. This is exactly what I need to integrate BC 365 with RS232 scales.
Sorry, this is not an open source project, code is not available
you can install vscode per comupter not per user that would change the location make it permenent per computer if that helps
... no, the main issue is that it's installed in a folder that named using the version number of the extension.
suggestion put a polarizer filter on the camera so we don't see reflection on your eyeglasses and book and screen
Yeah, the lighting situation in the new office is a bit more complicated that the old place.
Erik sir, I'm from India please make a playlist for beginners ❤❤❤

Hey Erik! Im working on a project and im in a "sticky" situation - therefor a request for a new vid. Red Asterisk on pagefields dynamicly - is this even possible? I've been thinking about it for a long time, and the only solution i see, is to modify every field on a page with a unique variable, and set this variable based on some code in the "onOpenPage" or "onAfterGetRecord" - But this seems like soooo much extending, for the sole purpose of setting "showmandatory" on fields :D
No great way of doing this...
