Hi all,

I was wondering is there any reliable way to protect NAV code from being reused by other partners. I though extension is the answer as object disappears. But when I try to debug, I'm able to see all the code in the extension. It as easy as I created a tool to export licence file from NAV DB. So it appears the whole extension idea is useless at the beginning. Protection is zero...
I can remember I already used a "hack" tool that deletes code in compiled 2009 object, but I cannot find it. I made some tests in 2017 without a deep SQL profiler research and I was not able to delete/hide the code. So before doing any further test I want to ask if somebody already knows any reliable way to protect a C/AL code?

Is it possible to modify the trigger of the current field in the current table using VS Code?
For example, rem and insert code OnValidate() trigger for Field 5 Table 18.

Hello,

We are two NAV instances running on one server supporting two different countries. We are seeing an issue with downloads performed direct from the NAV Service where the date format is incorrect. Each of our locations has a different date format requirement. Is it possible to change the date format on an individual NAV service or is it dependant on what the server is set to? We are running NAV 2017.

Thanks

Nick

Hi
I have written a small codeunit for test that delivers some data to an external SQL-server. I use the DotNet methods to write to the SQL-Server.

Test - running the function manually in Client
1. Set the Parameter "RunOnClient" = FALSE on DotNet Globals
Expect: An error as RunOnClient = FALSE
Result: Get the error ".....The Network path not found"

2. Set the Parameter "RunOnClient" = TRUE on DotNet Globals
Expect: No Error - the function works
Result: The function works and i'm writing to external SQL-server (YES!)

Test - running the function in a job Queue (the Job Queue runs via NAS service)
1. Set the Parameter "RunOnClient" = FALSE on DotNet Globals
Expect: No Error - the function works
Result: Get the error ".....The Network path not found"

2. Set the Parameter "RunOnClient" = TRUE on DotNet Globals
Expect: An error as RunOnClient = TRUE
Result: Get the error ".....Client Callback is not allowed...."

Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong (Job Queue - No. 1)

Best Regards
Mads Morre

Hi all, our customer is interested in creation of customer invoices in XML format. We have seen the possibility to do this through the function "send electronic document -> through document exchange service -> PEPPOL 2.1. When we try to use this function on Cronus database (CH version but also IT version, hf 46045), we have an error message:
The Doc. Exch. Service Setup is missing the secret keys or tokens. Do you want to open the Doc. Exch. Service Setup window?
We have filled in the information in the setup with the function "Set URLs to default", but confirming the setup we have another error message:
The tokens and secret keys must be filled in the Doc. Exch. Service Setup window.
How can we solve the problem?
Thank you,
Elena

Hi,
We have setup where NAV is running on server in cloud. Clients are running remote, and webclient is up and running.
A decental warehouse, needs to print item labels.
Wanted solution is to set up a labelprinter at warehouse, and labels to printer using a app.

I see that Bartender has a solution with a webserver etc, which seems a bit overkill in this scenario.
Could a report be made, that generates PDF, which we send to Iphone/Ipad device, and just prints from there directly to network/wifi printer? I tend to think that just sending a PDF to the printer could give us problems with a Brother QL-580N termal printer with label roll.

Any good solutions to this?

Thanks

Our accounting periods are custom - they do not run parallel to the calendar year. Obviously when creating a budget, the Accounting Period filter is an available view. Accounting Period is also an available option when editing by G/L Balance/Budget.

Is there a 'Period Length' filter option that will allow us to export our budget to Excel by Accounting Period?

Hi guys!
Doing upgrade from 2013->2017 have a question about Job Queue.
In short -> when user (packer) finishes sales order packing - sales order put into the Job Queue to be posted.
According to the msdn:
Task scheduler "session runs by using the same user/credentials that are used when calling C/AL code."
So sales order will be posted under the packer`s credentials. And this was confirmed by tests.
And the packer have to have all the rights to post sales order.
But we dont want to give him this. In 2013 we have special service account which have posting rights.

So the questions is it possible in NAV 2017 Job Scheduler to keep the same "rights model"?
Or we have to give posting rights to the user who put order into the Job Queue and there is no way around it?

Thanks!

How to update value of Purchase Header custom field from Purchase Order (sub)Page

Hello everyone,

I'm quite new to this field, sorry for the newbie question. I guess the solution will be something trivial.

I Created a new, editable field in the Purchase Header table. I want to let the user set it’s value on the Purchase Order Page (P50), more precisely on the Purchase Order Subpage (P54).


I added a new control to the subpage, set its SourceExpr to "PurchHeader.MyNewField".


However, I just can’t update its value, it remains the default 0.00 as I refresh the page (I’ve turned edit mode on). Why? How could I store the new values of this custom field?

Thank you for any help & advice.

Hi all,

When I run the following command, I end up with a Cannot index into a null array error. What's weird is that this used to work fine.

Any ideas how to resolve will be gratefully received. Command and output shown below.

Also, if anyone has an example of how to run either a Docker command or a New-NAVContainer command which connects to a SQL database on the laptop (rather than in a docker container) they could share it would be appreciated. I've tried numerous variations but don't seem to be able to get it right.

Hello

I have a Role Centre that has two page elements:
- "Activities" CardPart with CueGroup tiles
- "Statistics" List

The Activities and Statistics elements contain data derived from the Customer table. When the user clicks on either element, the Lookup Page is the same (to a bespoke Customer List page).

When the user clicks a tile in the Activities CardPart, it then opens the Customer List and which takes its title from the name of the Tile in the CueGroup
When the user clicks Statistics List, it then opens the Customer List which takes its title from the name of the Customer List Page

I'd like the Customer List Page title to be consistent - can I control it?

Thanks

Hello,
I have a page, which displays the Lot Numbers (as a list) to an article. This page gets the data via a function in the page, because the page has set the property SourceTableTemporary to Yes. The SourceTable is Lot Number by Bin Buffer.
The OnOpenPage trigger calls the local function FillTable, which inserts the data.
The article number is transferred with another function (ParameterSet) and this is then used in the FillTable.
This works inside Navision perfectly!

Now I want to use this page as a web service. How can I transfer the article number so that the Lot Numbers list is created only for this article number.

Thanks,
stony

Hi Everyone,

I want to show page content in iframe (without all any additional elements, ribbon, navigation etc.). I have big problem with this task beacose when i add parametr isembedded = 1 into URL, then the filters on page work incorrect.

For example when I show Mini Trial Balance (page 1393) on the external site, and when i want to get details for a position (by clicking on it), then the details page opens without filters for it.

All work good when parameter isembedded have value 0, but then i have this bar in the iframe.
