Is there a way to make procedures available without the need to reference the codeunit they are contained in? so for example just like i can reference functions like StrPos, of StrLen without any prefix codeunit.StrPos can I create my own functions and reference them in this way?

Thanks

Unfortunately, this cannot be done. Even for system functions, if different namespaces are declared, a prefix is required.

For example,

Thanks.

You cannot create global procedures that are accessible without referencing their containing object (like codeunits or modules) the same way built-in functions like StrPos or StrLen are. Built-in functions are part of the AL language itself and are globally available because they are implemented as part of the base runtime libraries.

Hi @MH-06060002-0,

No, I don't think so. You have to follow MS's best practices in development.
