users have gotten used to see the errors that have occured during a job queue transaction run and now with the absence of it the users might think that NO errors occured.

#MsDyn365BC #BusinessCentral
Have you noticed that in the job queue transaction for report 297 "Batch Post Sales Invoices" it no longer shows/links to the error messages recorded for that run?
The errors are still recorded in the page 709 "Error Message Register" so you can still see them
But ➑️

One year Directions4Partners (?) did a review of the new BC features from a "partner perspective". Has that stopped?

#BCALHelp
Location names used to be colors and then it was changed to "East/West/north". I know because I had to change our default configuration packages.
Now it seems to be colors again in standard cronus?
Anyone know something about that?

Another question related to that. Will the apps be forced upgraded when upgrading to major? If so we should warn customers that upgrading to major may affect their existing customizations => to costs

22.01.2025 07:52 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Top of my mind I don't think so.
Our customers are more like "Don't update it if it aint broke".
I would advise customers to not do that before they had tested/read about the updates.
If you have heavy customized base app then the probability that customer specific features will get broken.

Definitely! You at least broke ours πŸ˜‰ Just glad that I couldn't sleep and was able to start 🧹 at 04:14 in our most active projects before the others started working.
Those LC0051 and LC0075 are really valuable!

What a bug fix! 🌊🌊🌊
Suddenly a lot of warnings that I thought was under control now showed up and told me it wasnt! 😬
Time to fix the breaking pipelines 🧹
Still, good work though!

#BCALHELP Scenario, I would like to create a new DEV sandbox from Prod. But I want to easily keep track of WHEN I took the "backup". If I put the date in the sandbox name everyone has to update their bookmark to DEV since the URL = sandboxname.
How do you handle it?
Field in the db?

I thought of Data Braider (sparebrained.com/appsource/da...) as well but as Vyska announced yesterday I don't know how available it is at the moment.

I agree with @matnav.co.uk , I hope this will be the turning point and that there will be a way better 2025!

My first thought as well, but then I tried to find it "written". Could it find it within a couple of minutes and gave up.

#bcalhelp Remind me again, why are the amount fields on Sales Invoice Header SumIndexFields and not just fields since they are constant?
Currently these fields make the page load very slow.

Nothing fancy, I just look at the CPU as an overall indicator and then in the query store.

#BCALHelp - We are having a case where the invoicing takes to long time. The invoicing time can vary between 4-15h even though the invoices ~same. When it goes slow the VM and Azure SQL only has CPU workload 7-16% resp. 14-40% .
Any ideas? Currently running on BC22.
