Al and C/Side Side by Side

gnaaktgeboren

Hi,

I've been looking at this article https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/developer/devenv-running-cside-and-al-side-by-side and it describes how to use code that has been generated in C/Side in a AL project.

My question is if it's possible to this the other way around.
I've been developing a extension in AL and published the extension at the customer site.
The developed extension is working fine.

Now the customer want to access a field that was added to the Sales Header table as an table extension.
He can't see the field in the C/Side environment.

C/Side is not "aware" of extensions - it's just the way it is.

You would need to create the report as an extension - yes I know, not great when all you want to do is add an extra field to an existing report.

Any tables/fields added via an Extension will not be visible in C/Side

Any reason why this is?

The reason that I'm asking is that a customer would like to show a field from a extension table on a report.
