NAV 2016 OnValidate trigger doesn't fire if field value is the same

Hi all,

In NAV2009 RTC, if a field has a value (let's say "XXX") and you type in the same exact value "XXX", the table's OnValidate trigger will fire.

In NAV2016 CU5, this appears not to be true - if the value in the field is the same, the OnValidate trigger never fires.

Does anyone know if this was a conscious decision, or perhaps an issue that was corrected in a later CU?

Thanks

Ron
