Aren’t the dot zero versions also a preview?
They are never completed until dot one.

Format Cheatsheet This is a very quick cheatsheet for all the different formats that you get out of AL using the Format() function with various format options.

Tried to remember which Format() gives me a GUID without braces for the 7th time this month… so I made a quick AL Format() cheatsheet 🧠💡

I am surprised how few views there are for the "OnlyBCFans" in YouTube. Just finished listening to a fascinating interview with Freddy Kristiansen.
If you are a Business Central developer, I encourage you to go to YouTube to listen to their videos.

I like X for the variety.
I never followed politicians or mass followings like Elon.
I added this app because most of the BC community posts here.

This was a predictable problem.
It’s kind of like a traffic light where the drivers only look at the lights and ignore the other cars.

The events and on delete trigger exclusion will limit its usefulness.
We had a customer who posted an extremely huge gl journal batch that locked their system for hours while deleting.
(They never did that again.)

Best wishes to all attendees.
The two I went to were fun and marvelous for my career.
It just got to be too much coming from the USA for me.
Much thanks for posting the sessions online after the conference.

The previous management suppressed too much.
Current management allows too much.
I stay immune in the middle.
And I avoid getting any news from Facebook.

I still prefer twitter.
I stick to following and the feed works well for me.

Maybe the Europe to USA demand is down?
