- FlowFields in Business Central and NAV are powerful features that display calculated results based on the CalcFormula Property.
- Standard FlowFields cannot be modified or extended in the current version, as the CalcFormula property cannot be customized.
- Three methods to work around this limitation include copying standard FlowFields to create new fields, using security filters for record-level security, and utilizing the OnDrillDown (Page Field) Trigger to override default drill-down behavior.
- Copying standard FlowFields involves modifying the CalcFormula Property and adding the new field to the page.
- Security filters can be set up on permission sets to limit user access to specific data in a table, and once assigned, users cannot remove the security filter.
- The OnDrillDown (Page Field) Trigger allows users to define drill-down results for a FlowField without changing the displayed value on the page.
- These methods provide flexibility for customizing and enhancing standard FlowFields in Dynamics 365 Business Central.
- Users can choose the method that best suits their needs and give it a try to improve their Dynamics 365 experience.
