Enhanced Cues


Cues appear as tiles in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV client that display business data and key performance indicators (KPIs) on RoleCenters. Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 includes the following new features that expand the data that can be displayed in a Cue, and enhance Cue set up and appearance.

Colored Indicators

You can configure the Cue to display a bar along its upper border that changes color based on the data in the cue.


New Images

You can change the image that displays on the Cue or set up the Cue without an image. There are several images to choose from.


Normal Fields

In previous Microsoft Dynamics NAV versions, you could only set up Cues based on FlowFields for data. In Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015, you can also use normal fields, which expands your possibilities for the Cue data source, such as using Query objects or source expressions.


Decimal and Text Data Types

In previous Microsoft Dynamics NAV versions, you could only set up Cues to display on integer data types. In Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015, you can also use decimal and text data types. This provides you with additional data aggregation possibilities instead of just COUNT, such as SUM, MAX, MIN, and AVG.


Custom Formatting of Data

By using the AutoFormat property, you customize the format of the value that appears in a Cue. For example, you can set the number of decimal places, or place a symbol such as a +, -, or %, before or after a value.

ShowMandatory Property


With Microsoft Dynamics NAV a new property called ShowMandatory has been introduced on page fields. The ShowMandatory property is set on page fields and marks the field with a red asterisk on the UI.



NOTE:The ShowMandatory property can be used to mark all page fields, but does not enforce any validation of the field. This means that the user will be able to close a page without entering data.

You can send attachments by email from Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

The option is available in the ribbon and called Email or Post and email depending on the context. 
It displays a dialog that lets you attach the document together with a short message and send this as email directly from Microsoft Dynamics NAV. 
In Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows client you can decide to modify the email more in your default mail program. 
The default email sender address is based on the settings in the SMTP Mail Setup window. 
If SMTP is not configured or Outlook is not available, the .pdf file will open instead.

Word Report Layouts


In previous versions of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you could only design the layout of reports by using Visual Studio Report Designer or Microsoft SQL Server Report Builder. With Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015, you can design report layouts by using Microsoft Word 2013. Word report layouts are built on Word custom XML parts that dynamically map a report dataset into a report at runtime.

Customizing and Managing Report Layouts from the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Clients

You can customize Word and RDLC report layouts from the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows client and Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client by using Word 2013 and SQL Server Report Builder, respectively. This enables users can make variations of layouts, and then use the variations when viewing and printing reports as needed.

New Report Functions

The following functions have been added in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 to support new report layout implementation.

SAVEASXML
 Saves a report as an .xml file on the computer that is running Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server.
WORDXMLPART
 Returns the report data structure as structured XML that is compatible with Word Custom XML parts.
WORDLAYOUT
 Gets the Word report layout that is used on a report and returns it as a data stream.
RDLCLAYOUT
 Gets the RDLC layout that is used on a report and returns it as a data stream.
HASCUSTOMLAYOUT
 A function in codeunit 1 that determines whether a report has an active custom Word layout or RDLC layout at run time.
MERGEDOCUMENT
 A function in codeunit 1 that loads the custom Word layout that is active on report and renders it in the targeted format, such as Word or PDF.
REPORTGETCUSTOMRDLC
 A function in codeunit 1 that loads the proper custom RDLC layout for a report at run time and uses the layout to render the report.



Layout can be designed in Word

I was trying to restore a SQL backup (.bak) file of NAV2013R2 and got this error message.



The media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided. All members must be provided.

Msg 3132, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 
The media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided. All members must be provided. 
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.


I tried many ways but still got same error.

I tried to take backup again to check whether I can find anything strange.
I noticed having 2 Destination files added while taking backup.



This error is due to your backup being divided into more than one part at the time of creating your backup file.

Remove one path from the backup destination so that only one .bak file is created.
Now I was able to restore the backup file successfully.

I looked at the video by Kerry Rosvold on how to make a pipe filter in excel here and MVP Mark Brummel’s alternative here . Both are awesome.


I have also an alternative way.


So this is how I do it.

You copy a few lines to excel like this:


And in Excel you paste, and Remove all other columns except No.




Add pipe (|) in B1 cell and =A1 in B2 cell and Enter



Add below formula in B3 cell and Enter
 =B2&B1&A3


Now it looks like



Re Select B3 Cell and select B1 value and Press F4 (which makes Pipe value Constant)



Now formula in B3 looks like
=B2&$B$1&A3

B1 is changed as $B$1


Copy B3 cell and paste in all below cells


The last row has the final filter.

You do not have permissions to modify profile records because the tenant is mounted with the application database as read-only

Error Message:






You do not have permissions to modify profile records because the tenant is mounted with the application database as read-only. Contact your system administrator.

Problem Statement:

System returns above error message when you try to set any Profile ID as Default Role Center in Multi-Tenant environment. The problem happens because the tenant can’t write changes to the application database and the Profile table is in Application database.

Here is the list of tables which are distributed to Application database and Business Data Database.



Solution: If you want to allow the Tenant’s to allow changes in Application database then follow below steps.


Below is the screenshot of tenants list mounted to a servicetier in NAV Administration Tool


“Allow Application Database Writes” should be True to fix the above error.
By default “Allow Application Database Writes” will be False.

If you want to change then go to below path
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\80\Service\Instances\TradeOnline

Here you will find Tenants.Config file
Open it in Notepad and change the “Allow Application Database Writes” to True
And Restart the Service.




But make sure that if you change Default Role Center in one tenant then it will be applied to all tenants as Profile table is in Application Database.
