How to Recover Dimension Set Entry Table from Dimension Set Tree Node Table?

Hi,

Accidentally developer has forgot to set Temporary  = Yes for Record object of  Table 480 - "Dimension Set Entry".

He created record variable for table 480 - dimension set entry :
TempDimSetEntry - Record (Temporary = <No>)

Then executed standard GetDimneisonSet function:
DimMgt.GetDimensionSet(TempDimSetEntry,"Dimension Set ID");

And if run this code using developers license then it will delete all the records from Dimension Set Entr Table (because Temporary = False it should be True)

This happen in UAT database of customer than it start giving error everywhere in the system and this impacted our UAT Session.

But after analyzing and we found that we can create the dimension set entry from dimension set tree node table.

Below is the Batch report which we used to create the dimension set entries from dimension tree node table.

Improved performance features of Business Central 17

  In the training I’ve done to some partners last week, when talking about performances I shared an example of an extension with 3 features that I think are not so well known but that have a significant impact on how your code performs, expecially on a SaaS environment. That extension used the following features: Partial record loading Temporary Tables QueryCategory The  Partial record  capability  is a new feature available starting from Dynamics 365 Business Central 2020 Wave 2 (v17) and I think it’s one of my top personal desiderata from years. This feature permits you to load only the needed fields of a recordset (when accessing a data source) instead of loading the entire set of fields. This is particularly useful on reports and OData pages because you can avoid to do a SELECT * (plus JOINS with all the extension’s tables) and instead doing a SELECT of only the fields you need. Now you can do something like: procedure TestPartialRecord(): Decimal ...

Custom sheet name in RDLC Reports

Hi Readers, In this article we are going to discuss how to change the excel sheet name while using base Navision SAVEASEXCEL functionality. Applicable for RDLC reports of Navision and SSRS reports. Let’s say we have the following report that shows total sales by product category by territory:   When we export this report to Excel, we’d like each territory to appear in its own worksheet and each worksheet named after its territory: How do we make this work? Easy! 1) Put every group on its own page. 2) name each page using the same field the group uses. Step 1: Put each group on its own page To put each group on its own page, open the group’s property window. Then, in the Page Breaks category, put a check mark in the Between each instance of a group check box. Click OK to complete this step. Step 2: Name the pages of the group With the group selected in the Row Group s panel, press F4 to open the Properties window. Next, expand the Group ...

AL Development 03 - How to Develop New Report in AL?

Hi Readers, Now its time to develop the most important part of Navision which client desire the most yes you are correct i am talking about Reports. As we know to develop any solution in Business Central we must start working on AL Code Extension so from this blog you will get to know the detailed step how to create a Report through AL Code in business Central. Note: As of now there is no provision to customise the base report. Let’s try to create a simple report. Add new file with .al extension in your project folder through visual studio code My File Name is My_report.al  Code Snippet for adding a new Report, use snippet treport as shown below: Next Step to set these Report Properties - • Assign ID and Provide a name of the Report that you are adding. • Set UsageCategory to ReportsAndAnalysis. • Set ApplicationArea to All. As you select the treport snippet then a default structure of the report is created as below: Basically, there are 3...
