D365FO Electronic Reporting (GER): Properly use table methods

Dynamics 365 ERP - Development

The article discusses the impact of using the ER model mapping table method on the performance of Microsoft business applications like Dynamics 365.
When the table method is used, such as in the provided example, the salesTable() method is executed three times per each record.
This can negatively affect the performance when executing other logic and calling it from a large number of records.
The article suggests using a Calculated Field as an easy solution to improve performance.
By creating a Calculated Field and calling it directly, the salesTable() method is only called two times, one per each record.
It is recommended to save reused methods into Calculated Fields to avoid unnecessary calls in Electronic Reporting.
The article encourages readers to watch a video for further clarification on using Calculated Fields.
The author concludes by expressing hope that the readers found the information helpful.
