Buch ist gut aufgebaut, verständlich und hilfreich. Einen Punkt Abzug weil es m.E. sehr teuer ist.

It's clear that there's a lot of expert knowledge that went into this book. Unfortunately, it seems that they spent so much money on their AL experts that they didn't have any left over for writers or editors.There is little structure to the book. We learn about Table Triggers hundreds of pages before we learn what we can do with them, or why we might want to do anything with them. There's no discussion of the actual structure of the AL language; instead, we end up retyping page after page of abstruse code without actually understanding any of it.Practical lessons are interspersed with long sections describing features. Unfortunately, there does not seem to be much in the way of a connection between the two. Page after page of rote copying of code is followed by an academic discussion of different uses of tables, with very little reference to the tables we were just creating. The explanation of *why* we were creating the tables and fields in question gets lost in the shuffle.And that's not counting the blatant errors in the book. Screen shots show the wrong thing. Table names change part way through without warning. Common problems, like being unable to download the symbols, are not mentioned. You're told to use features that simply don't exist in the program you're using; it takes extensive research to discover that they're actually talking about using a feature of a completely *different* application, and didn't bother to mention it.In Chapter 3, for example, we've been doing the standard rote retyping of flowfield properties into Visual Studio Code, when the book describes an error message that does not appear in VSCode. We're told to press F11 to compile; in VSCode, F11 switches to full screen mode. It was only reading another review of the book that I discovered this is a feature of a completely different application, C/SIDE.It seems that this book is the only one on the market, and to be fair it *does* have a lot of useful information in it. But go in prepared for a slog.

Book jumps from Visual Studio Code into C/side without warning (e.g. page 153). The real world use case that is used references asks you to create tables using specific table numbers and these numbers then change later in the book. Looks like the book has been hastily rehashed from the earlier Dynamics NAV version with insufficient proof reading.

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team. 

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.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

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.
