Configuration Package - Posted Documents

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 237

Hello,

In BC Cloud environments, 2 configuration packages are available for evaluation. 

While W1.ENU.STANDARD only imports setups, W1.ENU.EVALUATION imports mater data and transactions and even posted documents.

During the import, I see that the documents are posted like we do manually, and is this something we can also configure for our packages?

Please advise.

Thank you.

    Hi, Let me explain with the screen copies.

    In BC Cloud environment, instead of using CRONUS, we can import predefined configuration packages

    and when the evaluation package (W1.ENU.EVALUATION) is selected and start the package application

    We first see a message like this, which is like the ones in other packages

    but after a while, we see messages like these

    obviously, invoices are being posted during the application.

    We cannot import posted documents (like posted sales invoices) in configuration packages but in this predefined package, imported documents are posted.

    I wonder how we do it and let me know how this can be done with configuration packages.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Yes, you are right. Let me ask internally if someone has documentation how to do this.

    Thanks.

    I see something about ‘Processing Rules’ option in this post

    community.dynamics.com/.../info-example-about-use-warehouse-physical-inventory-journal-and-configuration-package-in-business-central-saas-cloud-version

    I do not know about detailed doc.

    Thank you.

    "Processing Rule" may be the one as I see different options to take from for a table

    Hello,

    The development team got back to me with the following answer. Hope it helps.

    ///

    Configuration packages are designed and optimized to import/export setup data for companies and not intended to launch any posting activities while applying a package.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../admin-set-up-a-company-with-rapidstart

    Recommended procedure is to import Journal lines that can be posted and therefore getting the transactions in.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../admin-how-to-prepare-a-configuration-package

    Due to performance reasons, it is not advised to post transactions in the RapidStart/Configuration packages functionality. It is not documented in our current docs as we encourage to use RapidStart to setup new companies with the default setup data.

    The only info I could find about processing rules (oriented mostly for data formatting topics) are in the NAV 2015 help.

    ///

    Thanks.

    Hi Marco,

    Thank you very much for the information.

    This information clarified well how I should use Rapidstart.

    Thank you again for spending your time to find it out.

    Interesting and something new for me that you pointed out. Mark the answer that Macro Mels has written so that others also know that it is a solved question. Thanks
