Navigating the complexities of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, I found a resource that not only elucidates advanced features but also delves into solution integration to be transformative.Right from the start, the book proves to be an essential guide. Authors Stefano Demiliani and Duilio Tacconi, with their extensive experience, provide clear explanations and cover a breadth of topics. The second edition expands on the first by adding new chapters crucial for contemporary developers, including file handling, print management, and integrations with VS Code extensions, GitHub DevOps, Azure services, and Power Platform.The book's practical approach is its distinguishing feature. It doesn't merely explain how things work—it demonstrates them. Detailed, step-by-step instructions for crafting a complete advanced solution using AL language and Visual Studio Code are straightforward and easy to follow. A focus on best practices and extensibility patterns ensures the developed solutions are effective, maintainable, and scalable, meeting modern business demands.It also addresses complex integrations with APIs, OData, and Azure Functions, offering a lucid comprehension of how to enhance the ERP beyond standard functionalities. The DevOps section is especially enlightening, providing strategies for integrating these practices into the development lifecycle via GitHub.To sum up, for both experienced developers and newcomers to Dynamics 365 Business Central, this book is indispensable. It is comprehensive, well-organized, and brimming with expert insights that will empower you to master the platform and create advanced business solutions. It comes highly recommended.I trust this review will be beneficial!

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
