Hi,

I'm developing an extension for Business Central in VS code and one issue is to change the behaviour of report 1306, need to have dataitem "Line" as temporary. Cannot find out how?

Cheers,

Eymi

    Hi, As mentioned by several experts above, there are also many restrictions in ReportExtension, you cannot modify UseTemporary property.

    So I agree with Teddy, recommend creating a new Report if you really want to do it.

    Hope this will help.

    Thanks.

    Report extension is still limited on what it can do. I don't think you can use report extension for what you want to achieve.

    My suggestion is to duplicate and create a new report.

    After creating new report, you can use ReportManagement (refer to below link) to substitute the report automatically.

    Maybe add your own data item as you require. Add a currreport.skip to the standard one. If you can’t work around the constraints of a report extension consider a new report. Use a codeunit to substitute the report or set it in report selections

    Hi

    If you have question about Report Extension maybe following videos can help. But if you have specific question about "dataitem" Line then I hope developers such as yzhums   TeddyH JAngle NorthW can provide info.
