Hi all,

I'd like to add action in Category11 by pageextension in the Item List page. This category is empty and I add a caption on this one and an action. What can I do?

I try to change PromotedActionCategories with the new category and add promotedcategory = category11 in the new action but nothing, whe I run the page, I see the caption "Category11".

Thank you for your kindly replies.

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.

If you want to change the Promoted Action Categories name, there is a property on the page.

You can change the Category11 caption into something else.

Ex:

PromotedActionCategories = 'New,Process,Report,Release,Posting,Print,Navigate';

You have to match exactly the page extensions actions, its page have slightly different groups, also you have to add all of them, and you customize action be the last or be added at the end of new ones. Like for example for Sales Order:

PromotedActionCategories = 'New,Process,Report,Approve,Release,Posting,Prepare,Order,Request Approval,History,Print/Send,Navigate,CustomActionGroup';

Then on the action declare the properties:

Promoted = true;

PromotedCategory = Category13;
