Report Extensions should be introduced
Since the only development and deployment method currently supports is Extension Development via a Sandbox using VS Code (AL Lang), isn't it great to have Report Extension Development capability too? There's always possible to dev Extensions for Standard Tables, Pages, CUs but why not Reports?...
Extending keys in a base table from an AL table extension
When developing AL table extensions, it is possible to create one or more keys, but the scope of that key is solely in the extended table (not the base table that is being extended). VS Code will not allow you to create that key if the key references one or more fields found in the parent table...
All table fields available on Pages to add via personalization
Customers and partners have been asking for all table fields to be available on all pages to add without customization vie personalize (or in on premise Show Columns) for at last 15 years now, Can you please make all related table fields available to users to be added via personalize vs having...
Select User Session when Debugging
To make support easier, it would be nice, if we would be able to also select other User Session in Visual Studio Code like it is possible in the Windows Client.

HTML Editor Control Add-in
It would be nice if Business Central would provide a build-in HTML Editor Control Add-In, which could be used for Editing Rich Text like a detailed Item Description for a Online Shop or when Sending an Invoice via E-Mail with E-Mail Body to edited the body before sending. A few Open Source Edito...
Increase Length of Application object Identifier to 50 Characters.
30 Characters has been for a long time the maximum length, however NAV/BC has evolved in many ways that now we often need to add Prefixes and/or Suffixes to objects Identifiers. I believe all community would clearly benefit with this suggestion, mainly because we have reached a point of no return...
[IP Protection] Ability to debug app without ShowMyCode=true
Hi, For now the only possibility to debug the code is to set the showMyCode property to true in the manifest file of our app. In combination with this setting we can add the [NonDebuggable] attribute in parts of the code we don't want to be seen by the debugger. Problem is with showMycCode = tr...
- More granular app.json settings for IP access, e.g. (examples)
- AllowSourceDebug: Control source access during debug. Note that it would be possible to mine IP across debug sessions
- AllowSourceDownload: Control access to downloading .app with source from tenant
- AllowSourceInSymbols: Control whether symbols contain source when downloaded from server during development
- Additional support for NonDebuggable, either on triggers, parameters etc, or full object
- Note: Provides access to source, but hides (variable) data during debug
- More fine-grained access control, similar to NonDebuggable but for source
- A secret key (per extension) as part of connecting debugger, controlling source access during debug
- Would have to be centrally managed and support repudiation
- Difficult to manage across partner subsystem
- Could be partner and time limited token
- Extra work on extension provider (e.g., ISV) and extension consumer (e.g., VAR) to manage
Business Central automated tests results should all pass

Property to set focus on specific Text box
In implementations where Barcode scanners are used (not necessarily the mobile one, but "keyboard" one) like POS, or where user needs quickly start typing the data, developer needs to be able to set focus on specific textbox. There are two parts of this: 1) Set active textbox after the page is op...
Debugging of webservice interface
In the old development environment, the debugger could be attached to any instance, or selectively to the next started instance. This was very useful. Currently it seems it is not possible in D365 Business Central. If something unexpectedly goes wrong in a customer’s production environment, we m...
