NAV2016: When you modify a table/page the users get an error.

Kraver

Hey,

I am used to work with NAV2015 and I liked the fact that I could do small updates on the Live server without interfering with the customers daily work. They can just continue and when they re-open the page they have the newest version.

Now I'm implementing some custom code in NAV2016 and even in my DEV database I constantly get harassed by the message "The defenition of the %1 Table has changed. Start your activity again".
It's really annoying and slows my development.

Does anyone know how to disable this dreadfull functionality?

In b4: "Don't do adjustments in the live database": it's also anoying when developing on the DEV database

Thanks!

They've changed the client so that it detects the change and errors rather than trying to run with the older version of the object. I think this is safer/better so I wouldn't expect this to change.

do you have any webservice session running in background? probably it is still working on the old version.

Hey,

thank you for the swift reply, no we do not have a webservice running in the background.

I too have faced this around couple of months before and I restarted the Server Instance and it worked for me.

That did not fix it. But I think I didn't explain it properly.

It's not that I keep getting the message and that I can't open the page anymore; once I get the error the page closes and I can re-open no problem. Let me explain by this example 2015 vs 2016.

2015.
-RTC is open on Sales List and a Sales Order Page is open.
-I adjust some code in a function in the Sales Header table and I save
-I can just continue my work on the Sales Order page but it does not have the new code active that I've just written. (No problem, workign as intended)
-So I Re-Open the page and now my new code is active and I can test it. (Great!)

2016
-RTC is open on Sales List and a Sales Order Page is open.
-I adjust some code in a function in the Sales Header table and I save
-I go back to the Sales Order Page and I immediately get the above described error. The page Closes.
-I'm back at the Sales List and try to re-open the order so I can test my newly written code. I get the same error and I'm forced to re-open the sales list!

Hope this made it more clear
