    If you have the On-Prem version, you can export it to text and convert it to AL. Otherwise, there is no way to export the base code.

    If you want to customize an existing role center, you need to create a pageextension object that extends the role center you want.

    If instead you want to export an existing role center to AL for start creating a new one, you can uset Txt2AL tool for converting TXT objects to AL:

    From the object designer, check the Role Center page. It should be under 9000 range for standard ones.

    You will then need to export the object to text from command line ( not from the export function in Object Designer). Then use Txt2AL tool to convert from txt to AL.

    Thanks for your answers.

    I have installed BC on prem but when I execute commande :

    finsql.exe Command=ExportToNewSyntax, File="C:\demo\fornav.txt", Database="Demo Database BC (14-0)", ServerName=.\BCDEMO, filter="ID=70000..79999", Logfile=C:\Log_ExportFile.txt

    I get this error:

    [18023703] You do not have permission to run the 'File, Export, Text' System.

    Check your license permissions. Is this a developer license or not?

    Not a developer licence, how can I get one just to export a role center page?

    Thanks for your help.

    I have found my developer licence and installed it.

    I have copied and created a new role center but I can't apply it in the production side (no problem in the sandbox side)

    I can't create a new profil in production, the new bouton is grey. I have all permissions as SUPER.

    Can someone help me out ?

    You need to upload the extension to the Production from Extension Management. You can't apply it directly from VS.
