Converting 1600 Forms to Pages | Part III
Marq
Inspired by the comments on my previous post I will try to continue the journal of one of the largest, if not THE largest, RTC customer conversions. Today we spent another day on site with the customers develpers with the goal to get one role completely working in the RTC. And we succeeded. (Almost). Creating Role Centers from Menu Forms As I wrote earlier, this customer upgraded from 3.70 to 2009 classic but they remained their Form Menu's, never went Menu Suite. This lead to the idea today to see if we could convert a 3.70 menu form to a 2009 RTC Rolecenter page. And guess what,…

Tip #32 | Flowfield Calculation in RTC
Marq
In the classic client we are used to getting a runtime error when a flowfield cannot be calculated if the key metadata is missing: This no longer is the case in the RTC, it will just show zeroes: I'm not sure if this is a bug or a design decision.

Converting 1600 Forms to Pages | Continued
Marq
Yesterday I went to the customer with most of the pages stuffed in my briefcase. I felt proud to have done the job within (fixed price) budget but also scared to see the first test results. After moving all the pages from my briefcase and putting them into the database we could start the first "Testing". Now you should know, I don't know the details of how this customer works and 90% of their main processes is done in the add-ons outside of standard NAV. So the joyride started. The first discovery was that the customer had forgotten to order Granule 9100 . Remember this: you cannot use…

The Dutch Dynamics Community is started
Marq
Inspired by the Belgian Dynamics Community , there is now also a Dutch Dynamics Community . I have been visiting some of the events for the BDC for some years now, enjoying the content and inspired by the entousiasm. At this years DBC party event Arend Jan Kauffmann was also there and asked me, why can't this be done in The Netherlands and I said sure, but someone has to start. Weeks had passed and nothing happened until Luc van Vugt started this thread on Mibuso about the old Pizza sessions we had with MSFT in the past. Together we scheduled some meetings and decided to found the…

Converting 1600 Forms to Pages | The Approach
Marq
Recently I have helped a large customer in The Netherlands to upgrade their system from 3.70 to 2009 classic. It is a very large and complex system and they are very proud of the results. You can read their own reference story here . (Dutch). Their database includes several add-on's from different ISV's all over europe. We are very thankfull to one of them who has helped us with some codeunits that the customers Solution Developer license did not gave access to. The mayority of the project has been done by my coleagues of Liberty Grove Software in the USA and the in house developers of…

RTC | Excel Buffer vs. CurrReport.SaveAsExcel
Marq
With the introduction of RDLC reports in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 we did not only got PDF support for free, but also the possibility to save every report to Excel. For years this has been a top 10 request from end users. In the pre-RTC days (read: stone age) you could use the Excel Buffer table to easily export data to Excel and many Solution Developers are experienced in using this in reports. You can find more information on how to use the Excel buffer from my Download on MiBuSo. http://www.mibuso.com/dlinfo.asp?FileID=596 Back to the RTC and the new SaveAsExcel and the…

Metadata Corrupt in RTC | Experiences
Marq
Today, something terrible happened at one of my NAV 2009 RTC customers. After importing a fob with a changed report layout, sudenly people started calling me (I was working from home) that they were kicked out of Navision (yes, they call Dynamics NAV 2009 Navision, wonder where they got that from). Someone even called it a Navision Crash. I seemed that for some transactions NAV returned an error message Meta Data not found, or Object Meta Data has changed. First for table 2000000073. So I deleted that metadatarecord and it was fixed, but then it other tables start to fail. Same solution…
