Hi Dynamics NAV Community,
Does anyone have a rule of thumb of when it is best to create a FlowField vs. creating a normal field that is populated based on triggers (i.e. OnInsert, OnValidate, etc.)?

A flowfield is the best way to do when you want to obtain a field automatically calculated (based on a query) and that automatically should have a reference to the details. On a flowfield NAV automatically permits you to have the drilldown effect on the user interface.
Normal fields are the best choice if you need filter for this field or if you need to permit to your user to change the field value.
