As I wrote last week in part 1 “…I thought I might spend a blog post (or two) and go into details including some sample coding (see Part 2)” and thereby putting myself in debt. So here I am with part 2. [:O]
Since last week I had spent some time reviewing and revising the code samples I wanted to present here. However, when trying to get the whole thing work, using the Job Queue, I stumbled – big luck – across some forum posts that referred to a very useful blog by martinni. Many thanx to (a.o.) DaveT and Nuno Maia [Y] even if you two are not aware of this. No need for me to upload any code to the internet as it’s already there. Let’s reuse what’s there!
Example
So have a look here where the setup of the Job Queue is explained. Or actually in the (linked) usage example that shows how to implement a posting queue almost identical to the one I had thought of to show you here.
Why …
.. Microsoft has never included this neat and lean feature in standard NAV, making it available to all our customers, is still a riddle to me. [*-)]
With some additional coding it could be implemented on both Sales and Purchase side including all documents. And even be optional through some setup parameter. Seems to me a quick win.
