Is there a way to look at the source code for specific areas in Business Central?

Posted on by FJR

I would like to reference some of the AL code from, let's say, the Sales Order page, or the Sales Invoice page, when I have to create an extension for the business. It would make a great reference, but I have been trying to look for some "extension source code" and can't find any. Is this available for everyone to see or is it not?

Install the add-on called AL Object designer to your Visual code.

Then you can go to .alpackages folder in your VS code project - click on base application and all object will be listed and you can double click on the object you want to inspect and the code will be displayed.

Hi, There's also a great Business Central history code repository here. Recommend it.

Hope this helps as well.
Thanks.
