Overview of this book

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a full ERP business solution suite with a robust set of development tools to support customization and enhancement.

Using a case study approach, this book will introduce you to Dynamics 365 Business Central and Visual Studio Code development tools to help you become a productive Business Central developer. You'll also learn how to evaluate a product's development capabilities and manage Business Central-based development and implementation. You'll explore application structure, the construction of and uses for each object type, and how it all fits together to build apps that meet special business requirements.

Client Add-in comments

To take advantage of the Client Add-in capabilities, we will need to develop minimal JavaScript programming skills. Care will have to be taken when designing add-ins that their user interface style complements, rather than clashes with, the UI standards of the Business Central client.

Client Add-ins are a major extension of the Dynamics Business Central system. This feature allows ISVs to create and sell libraries of new controls and new control-based micro-applications. It allows vertically focused partners to create versions of Business Central that are much more tailored to their specific industries. This feature allows for the integration of third-party products, software, and hardware, at an entirely new level.

The Client add-in feature is very powerful. If you learn how to use it, you will have another flexible tool in your kit, and your users will benefit from it.
