Background

Overview

First Up Consultants is using a cloud-based Dynamics 365 Finance instance. The system has a foundation table named CashDisc that contains one cash discount record for each cash discount type.

Best For You Organics Company invoices First Up Consultants and allows cash discounts based on how fast an invoice is paid. First Up Consultants is entitled to a two percent discount from Best for You Organics for any invoice that is paid within 10 days and has a minimum invoice amount of $2,500.

Business requirements

All new and extended objects must be located in an existing model named FinanceExt. The creation of new models is not permitted.

Best For You Organics Company requires that First Up Consultants apply specific minimum invoice amounts to each cash discount record. A cash discount may only be applied when the minimum invoice amount requirement has been met. The new field must be added to the CashDisc form grid with the allowable visible number of characters set to 10.

First Up Consultants must retrieve the required Cash Discount methods and corresponding minimum invoice amounts directly from Best For You Organics Company’s enterprise resource planning (ERP) system.

The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) requires the following reports:

Answer:

Explanation:

Scenario: CashDisc form

You must extend the CashDisc form to add a new field named MinimumInvoiceAmount to the form. You must add a new Extended Data Type to the extension model for the new field. The new field must be added above the discount method field. The field must display 10 characters.

Box 1: extension

To add a new field to an existing table, you must first create a table extension.

Box 2: field

Box 3: field group

Box 4: data source

Often, the information that is stored in existing tables doesn’t satisfy customer requirements. Therefore, additional tables must be created, and data from those tables must be shown on pages.

You can add new data sources to existing forms through extension.

Follow these steps.
