What is the difference between CLEAR & RESET Functions in NAV?

What is the use of RESET & CLEAR : -

Basically when we use a want to reuse a variable we need to unapply all the filters that are previously applied on that variable, this is why we need to CLEAR or REST that variable.

If its string type we use ABC=''; IF its Integer type we use ABC=0;
OR we use CLEAR(ABC);
Now, when we are using a RECORD type variable we always use

CLEAR(ABC) or ABC.RESET;

Difference is that while using RESET it clears all the filters already applied on that variable and if any key is changed it will reset the primary also.

CLEAR is 1 more step Ahead that it will Clear all the fields individually from this recor type variable.

For reference please check :-After RESET

After Clear

Why are 2 Allow Posting Dates in G/L Setup and User Setup are present in MS Dynamics NAV ?

Two Different allow posting dates in General Ledger Setup and User Setup?

Yes one is for common users and one is for particular users.
Here the defined dates will be checked once a posting routine action is done in Navision.

But what is the priority base? Which will be selected if both are defined.

Priority will be given to User Setup first then G/L Setup.
For E.g.
In G/L Setup Dates are : 01012016..01022016
In User Setup Dates are : 01122015..31122015 for user XYZ.

Then while posting first user setup will be checked. That means if user XYZ is posting on date 29122015. Then will be able to post. Hope you understand the concept.

That's the reason why functions are useful in a coding of all types Languages.

Creating a Function needs to be needs needs 3 Basic Steps :

1. Defining and Creating the Defination of Function.

2.Calling the Function.

3. Passing the Paraments and Arguments into the function so that it provide output.

as navision is using C/AL Language in its heart to define and work the logics.There is only one thing common is Function.

Calling the Function and creating the Function and Defining the Function.

Due to this Fact , understanding Functions is very much necessary for beginners and experts of NAV TECHNICAL Consultants.

Functions are easy to create in NAV. Now passing the parameters and calling the functions is explained below.

There are two functions which I had created and Called it via 

CALL BY REFERENCE & CALL BY VALUE.

By Default All Variables in Functions inside NAV Dev are Pass by Value which means a copy is created for parameter and passed.

Variables Used:

CustRec     Record    18

Old Name   Text 50
New Name  Text 50

ChangeCustomerName and ChangeCustomerNameRef are two functions Created in which
Customer variable is taken First one is Pass By Value and Second one is Pass By Reference.

How to separate comma separated value in NAV and import the values in table MS Dynamics Navision?

Comma , Separated Value Retrieval

Now a days, we are moving to more around e commerce industry which works in 24*7 format so to ease the performance and manual work we prefer to use web services. These web services include a set of format which includes some logical values. So in this blog we will try to extract some values from a returned web services.

What we are going to use?

There is a function in NAV called SELECTSTR .

Acc. to msdn,

SELECTSTR treats string values as OPTIONS. This means that identical values in different strings are not allowed.

Any trailing commas are removed before the operation begins.

If Number is less than 1 or greater than the number of real values (excluding trailing commas) in the string, then an error is returned.

Quotes are not supported. For example, a,b,"c,d",e is treated as a five-element substring where substring 4 is d".

Example:-

We are going to retrieve 

1.Account Type

2.Url

3.ID

4.Name

from this returned value from web service.

{"type":"Account","url":"/services/data/v32.0/sobjects/Account/001N000000pEFqVIAW"},"Id":"001N000000pEFqVIAW","Name":"aafag"} 

How to implement the customization and store it in the Table.

Declare variables as per need and requirement.

This is the code which I had written for select the string and then simply insert it into our table.

The final result is here.
