Yes, you can achieve this in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central by using a combination of AL code for conditional styling and page extension customization.

Hello,

Do you have any record with an empty 'Planned Date' field?

You might want to add a condition to make sure the calculation only takes place when both 'Planned Date' and 'Planned Time' are not blank.

The code defines a field for "Planned Time" with a style controlled dynamically by the StyleExprTxt variable. The OnAfterGetRecord trigger updates StyleExprTxt by calling the GetStyleBasedOnTime procedure from the TimeStyle codeunit. This procedure sets the field's style based on the current time and the planned time value:
It returns 'favorable' if the current time is within 10 minutes before the planned time.
It returns 'Unfavorable' if the current time is past the planned time.
It returns an empty string as a default if neither condition is met.

Don't forget to like and close it by verifying if answer is satisfied.
