Hello Experts,

I hope you are all doing well. I have a query regarding implementing cascading for custom tables. In D365 Business Central, when a user changes the Customer No. in the Customer Master, BC automatically propagates the updated customer number throughout the system.

I have a custom master table that I'm using in several custom tables. If I update the value of the primary key/field in the custom master table, I want BC to update its value wherever this field is being used. Is this possible using pure AL Language? If yes, could you please provide me with some reference links or workarounds?

Your answers will be highly appreciated. Thanks for reading.

Hi, this is generally handled in the OnRename Trigger of the table. I hope the following information can give you some tips.

OnRename (Table) Trigger: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/dev-itpro/developer/triggers-auto/table/devenv-onrename-table-trigger?wt.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004336

Thanks.
