WOW! Erik, thank you so much for the video guide!! Coming from power platform, I have to admit, Visual Studio Code was incredibly intimidating (I was attempting to follow your Dataverse integration video from 2020) but this video was an incredible foundational guide - super thankful it exists! Makes following the Microsoft documentation for dataverse integration so much easier because it actually makes sense now lol
Very good explanation Erik. I have mentioned this several times before. I always look forward to your videos! Is it possible to explain the code modifications for an existing extension? Do we need to use the same appid and just change the version #? When we upload it to prod, do we need to uninstall the old extension?
Thanks a lot Erik! Very helpful for beginners. I have 1 question: Do you think it is possible for a functional consultant wih experience (more than 5 years) on NAV/BC who is already familiar with most objects then (pages, tables, CU) to learn how to develop in BC? I already know how to do some basic stuff (creating pages, tables, fields) but I was wondering if it's worth it to keep learning. Thanks again for all your interesting videos :)
Hi Erik, I am a C # developer and now I am starting to get acquainted with Bussiness Central to help a friend in his new endeavor. I wanted to congratulate you for uploading clear and accurate content and for taking the time to make these types of videos.

Hi Erik, very nice and detailed. I have one query. lets say I want to delete InventoryGrp on item card page or any group on any card type page to make screen simplified. Can you please suggest how to do that?
@@Hougaard I want to delete all the all groups and add all the needed fields of user choice in single group. Single screen view and minimum data entry.
Hi Erick, I have a question. I need the field SystemCreatedBy because it is a GUID not to show me that number, but rather to show me the name of the person who is creating the sales order. I appreciate your help on how I could implement it
Hey Erik. Great stuff! Is it possible to have 3 column groups of fields on the Item card? So basically 3 fields across? So user doesn't have to scroll down as more fields are added. Struggling with this when adding a field.
@Hougaard Thanks for the reply Erik! 3 column groups in the tab group rather than 2 in the tabs; in short, 3 fields side by side. I'm a seasoned CRM dev and just learning BC. Can easily do in D365 CRM but can't figure it out in BC.
Hi Eric the extension works perfectly on the sandbox but when I try to upload to production it fails. i even added the permissions as suggested in the video

hey Erik, when connecting to Business central i got this error : The request for path /v2.0/Sandboxeee/dev/webendpoint failed with code NotFound. Reason: Not Found
The exact thing I was looking for. Being a D365 CE Developer, struggled to get a grip of BC at first. Your video really helped me a lot
I like the way you explain everything in detail. Helps me a lot as a junior developer that's just starting in BC
This is exactly what I am looking for learning from scratch. Thank you Erik.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Erik. Very nice and fun start for working with extending BC.
If you already have a vscode project up running, video starts at 21:41.
Thank you, Erik.
This video helps a lot to verify what I think I have learned and correct it where necessary.
Glad it was helpful!

Man ... I love you. I think you are saving me now with your channel 💙
Welcome aboard!
Thank you Erik, This is perfect for starting in Business Central development.
Thank you for being so clear and thorough
Thanks for the information-rich teaching.
Great stuff as always. Thank you!
Extremely helpful , Thank you very much! love to learn AL

Do we need to use the same appid and just change the version #? When we upload it to prod, do we need to uninstall the old extension?
You keep the same extension, and just increment the version number (as I explain in this video :) )
Thank you!
Erik, Is it possible to show us the steps to convert C/AL to AL code? We have decided to move to latest BC on prem version. We are in 2016.
Have you looked at Txt2AL ? That's the code conversion tool, then you can use my uplifting tool (www.hougaard.com/uplifting) to move data.
@@Hougaard Thank you Erik!
Thanks for your video. It helped me a lot.
Thanks a lot sir your videos help me lot
Thnx for the video help me a lot, is there a way to copy de value of a field to another field on change value event
That's what the OnValidate() trigger is all about.

Yes, absolutely!! Just keep at it and you'll become a superstar in no time!
Thanks Erik , your video is really simple to understand , but how add your new field into a dataset ?
dataset, as in a report?

You need to modify the group and make visible = false; in a pageextension.
@@Hougaard I want to delete all the all groups and add all the needed fields of user choice in single group. Single screen view and minimum data entry.
@@yogeshmanikpure You cannot "delete", but you can set visible=false;
thank you very Mutch
Thank you, Erik.
I don't know how to add Field to page extension of sales invoice page inside sales line. Can you help me? Thank you!
The page is called sales order subform.
Hi Erick, I have a question. I need the field SystemCreatedBy because it is a GUID not to show me that number, but rather to show me the name of the person who is creating the sales order. I appreciate your help on how I could implement it
Create a lookup type flowfield to the user table. There's a video on flowfields on the channel.
@@Hougaard thank you Erick
Very good
This is awesome Erik.... :-) thanks
Hi Eric,
How to add a field from a different table to a page? I do not know how. Say adding a Job No field to a Purchase Invoice page? Thank you
Check the video on flow fields
Hi Erik, do you have a video of how to retire a field when it becomes obsolete?
It's on the list... stay tuned!
I have add "ExternalReferrenceId" Field as Text Type in "Purchase Header" table, it works great, but how can we expose this field in API ?
You'll have to create a new page, type API, to expose the purchase header with all the fields you need.
Hey Erik. Great stuff! Is it possible to have 3 column groups of fields on the Item card? So basically 3 fields across? So user doesn't have to scroll down as more fields are added. Struggling with this when adding a field.

What's happening?
@@Hougaard something went odd with the symbols download. Tried to refresh them and the problem disappeared.
@@ut00bvor Awesome, congratulation!!
Hi eric in the first line after extends I don't get the "Item table suggests" and typing it in manually returns an error
Have you downloaded symbols?
@@Hougaard Yes i did follow each and every step in the tutorial ....some other suggestions pop up apart from the one after "extends" and the on for adding field suggestions when adding the new field in the item card...i had to type the InventoryGrp.
Do you have any files in the .alpackages folder?
@@Hougaard i signed out of BC and created a duplicate workspace ... everything is now working
thanks eric
