What's New in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009

There is a new training course available for download from PartnerSource and CustomerSource. I'm not the first to blog about this, but NAV 2009 is definitely a hot topic, and I only came across this today, so if I've missed it, I'm sure there are others out there that will be interested. The upcoming release of Microsoft's ERP solution is much anticipated and accounts for a significant number of hits on this blog from search engines. It's not possible to write much about the product but hopefully that will change when the next release is made in September.

If you have access to PartnerSource, you can view the training course contents and powerpoint at this link. The CustomerSource URL is here.

Where did I put that trigger?

I needed to put some SQL triggers on my NAV tables the other day and when I came to check which triggers existed today, I had forgotten how I did it originally.

Here's a quick SQL script that will show you all table triggers in the current database.

SELECT [Trigger Name]=TRIG.name, [Table Name]=PARENT.name 
FROM (select * from sys.all_objects where type = 'TR') TRIG
JOIN (select * from sys.all_objects) PARENT
ON TRIG.parent_object_id = PARENT.object_id

I love TRANSFERFIELDS.

I've been doing a fair bit of coding recently and I must admit I love the concept of transferfields and the simplicity. It's really nice to know that when a customer wants a field to work it's way through to the posted documents from the source documents, you can do it all without writing any code.

Still, it would be nice if there were a way of stopping it from going wrong.
