Now when the user changes the value of the Replenishment System the red asterisk shows up. Nice! 🙂 field on the Item Card is mandatory for items where the Replenishment System is Prod. You can for example say that the Production BOM No. This is very useful since if fields are mandatory or not could depend on what type of record it is. Like many of the other Boolean properties this can have a value of TRUE, FALSE, a Boolean variable or a condition. The property that controls if and asterisk is going to be displayed or not is called ShowMandatory and it is an option that is on the fields of the pages (does not seem to be available in tables for some reason). I am happy that an option to indicate mandatory fields is back and now part of the standard functionality. In the earlier versions (before the role tailored client and pages) it was common to make mandatory fields different colors to simplify the data entry for the users. This is a great feature and something that users often ask about (or at least they ask what fields are mandatory). It marks mandatory fields that are empty with red asterisks.
This is part of the user experience simplifications that Microsoft has done to NAV 2015. I have browsed through it and below are my first thoughts about some it. 🙂Īt a first glance the client does not look that much different from the 2013 R2 version, but there is some new very useful functionality that looks promising. Therefor I will simply ignore those in this post. The improvements of the technology behind the scenes (such as OAuth support for web services, merge utilities, multi-tenant architecture, etc.) are also important but of less interest to me as a business consultant. the functionality in the NAV clients) are the most important ones (and also the most fun to review). To me the improvements that the users will see (e.g. I have download and installed it and so far it seems like it can co-exist with Dynamics NAV 2013 R2 without any issues (which was not the case with my 20 R2 versions, so this is great). Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 was released a couple of weeks ago.
