Progress Indicator vs window - Microsoft Dynamics NAV

..nice old “but actual” post about NAV progress indicator !
progre
Example
Progress indicator based on Item DataItem
Create a report with Item as the dataitem.  
Put the code below in the prescribed triggers. 
Define the variables, Run the report  
The TotalCount will adjust per the filters you enter on the report so the 
progression bar is always on time.

Variables
Name         DataType
Window       Dialog  
TotalCount   Integer  
Counter      Integer  
  
Item - OnPreDataItem()
  Window.OPEN('Processing: @1@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@');
  TotalCount := COUNT;

Item - OnAfterGetRecord()
  Counter := Counter + 1;
  Window.UPDATE(1,ROUND(Counter / TotalCount * 10000, 1));
   
Item - OnPostDataItem()
  Window.CLOSE;

How-to use Dialog Box with Progress Indicator
Try using a dialog box, but instead of using (ex. '#1######') you use 
(ex. @1@@@@@@@@@@@@@). The "@" sign signifies that you want to use 
progress bar indicator.

based on this question :
"When running a long processing report, I usually open a window & 
update it with the entry no I am processing. Instead of using this, is 
there a function that can create a progress indicator type bar instead 
with a % done (for example, like the one you see when importing a file)?

Office 365 integration in a Dynamics NAV hosting environment

Office 365 integration in a Dynamics NAV hosting environment We from the Microsoft Dynamics NAV support team (Microsoft CSS) see an increasing number of support cases coming in related to Office 365 integration in a hosting environment. This range from the relatively new Edit in Excel feature or the relatively new Outlook Business Inbox to the more familiar Office 365 Single Sign On functionality. This blog post is intended to help you to first discuss the requirements with your customer, it may also help you to understand the difficulties. It should be relatively easy to implement these capabiltities, but since there are so many external components that require different configuration setup, we may end up in high labor intense support cases where we need to put all pieces together. This blog post will hopefully serve as a guide where we summarize all relevant documentation that is out there. Finally, we will showcase a typical environment with several Azure AD’s amo...

Purchases and Direct Cost Applied Accounts in Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Purchases and Direct Cost Applied Accounts in Microsoft Dynamics NAV When working on new Dynamics NAV implementations (and for that matter, existing NAV solutions), we get a lot of questions about the Purchases and Direct Cost Applied Accounts—namely, what are they used for? We were trained in accounting that, when an inventory purchase receipt is invoiced (vouchered), we would debit the Inventory Account and credit the Accounts Payable Account and be done with it. Dynamics NAV doesn’t handle it that way. When we look at the General Posting Setup in Dynamics NAV 2013 (see below), we see that there is a column for the Purchases Account and the Direct Cost Applied Account. Figure 1 - General Posting Setup in Dynamics NAV 2013 When a purchase receipt is invoiced (vouchered) in NAV, we get the following General Ledger entries: Dr Purchases Account for the Actual Invoice Amount Cr Accounts Payable Account for the Actual Invoice Amount Dr Inventory Account for the Ac...
