Useful things I've learned along the way
As an X++ developer, I am very used to using 'while select' statements to loop through records stored in a database. However, as a C# developer, I often loop through lists of class objects. In this article, learn how to add values to a D365 list and loop through it. Additionally, learn how to add... Continue Reading →
In Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, there are several ways to store a collection of values, known as D365 collection classes. Quite often, developers will insert values into tables that have different field names and can each have their own data type. Each record is saved to the database for reading later. With...
