This post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 1 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central 2023 Wave 1.

The fourteenth of the new functionality in the Application section is Add more columns to pages for better insight.

Different businesses and users need different information to complete business processes. Personalization is a powerful tool that lets people tailor the information that pages contain by dragging fields or columns from a list to the page. Based on feedback from our community, we’ve added more fields and columns to choose from on several pages..

My Opinion

It’s good to see additional fields being made available for inclusion on pages without a customisation being required. It always seemed slightly odd that all fields from a table weren’t available as standard.
