81222. Application Foundation in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central

Description

In this course we continue with exploring the development environment and language of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. To write code, we use Application Language as the programming language. This course will focus on the statements and functions, which allow you to read, write and change data. We will also discuss built-in and creating custom functions, variables, arrays, and lists. We will also look at another basic object in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, the CodeUnit. We will end this course discussing Events and the ability to use translation files.
