Overview of this book

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is a complete business management solution that can help you streamline business processes, connect individual departments in your company, and enhance customer interactions. Ok. That first part was really professional sounding, right? Now, let’s get into what this cookbook is going to do for you: put simply, it’s going to help you get things done. This book will help you get to grips with the latest development features and tools for building applications using Business Central. You’ll find recipes that will guide you in developing and testing applications that can be deployed to the cloud or on-premises. For the old-schoolers out there, you’ll also learn how to take your existing Dynamics NAV customizations and move them to the new AL language platform. Also, if you haven’t figured it out already, we’re going to be using very normal language throughout the book to keep things light. After all, developing applications is fun, so why not have fun learning as well!

The Handled design pattern

Often, you will find yourself writing a calculation in your code that you are absolutely certain everyone will want to use to calculate the same way. Well, the reality is that it's not always possible to satisfy everyone. In some cases, a customer may want to inject their own calculation and completely bypass the one you created.

The Handled pattern allows you to build specific points within your application where functionality can be bypassed.

This recipe will show you how to use the Handled pattern within your AL code.

Getting ready
