External Tables and distributed transactions

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi all,
I am a fan of External Tables. I prefer them to the linked objects for their flexibility and no mandatory use of views.
I have a problem with this scenario. I have the SQL instance of Nav on a server while the external table points on a server on another instance SQL.

I have to write in the external table some informations about warehouse receipt lines. If I write with a test function all works fine.
If I call the same function during the post of the warehouse (Codeunit 5760 Whse.-Post Receipt) the records in the external tables are written, the warehouse is deleted but no posted warehouse appear!!

I have configured DTC (Microsoft Distributor Coordinator) in both servers.
Anyone have any suggestion to solve this problem?

The versione of Nav is Business Central 14.0

Thank you

    Hello,

    We currently do not have dedicated Dev support via the Dynamics 365 Business Central forums, but I wanted to provide you some additional resources to assist.  If you need assistance with debugging or coding I would recommend discussing this on one of our communities.

    I will open this up to the community in case they have something to add.

    Thanks.
