Development changes


Dynamics NAV 2013 introduces several development changes. There are changes regarding the development environment, with new features and object properties, and changes in the standard C/AL code, which has been redesigned in some areas.

With Dynamics NAV 2013, the classic client is no longer available as an application client but has remained as the development environment.
