Change masive field names

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 9

Hi there,

In BC, we're trying to change some field names (tables) which were created with special characters, such us: º ' ç ñ á é í ó ú à è ì ò ù , if we do a replace or if we use the f2 in vscode the translation related to the field will be lost and we've invested quite a lot of time on it.

Do you know about any extension in vscode or any other way to commit this task?

We need to update field names (and the code related to those) and public procedures.

Thanks in advance.

I have the same question (0)

    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.

    www.yammer.com/dynamicsnavdev

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