Reusing Standard Journals in Business Central

In the previous session, we explored how to create Standard Journals to save frequently posted transactions. Now, let’s take the next step — reusing those saved templates.

Once you have your standard journal saved, reusing it is quick and straightforward. This feature not only saves time but ensures consistency in your postings.

👉 Steps to Reuse a Standard Journal

Open the General Journals page by using the Search (🔍).
Choose the journal template and batch where you want to reuse the lines.
Navigate to: Home > Get Standard Journals



The Standard General Journals page opens, listing all the saved templates.
Select the desired standard journal entry.



 Just like that, the journal lines will be populated!




Now you can post, edit, or adjust those lines as needed — without rebuilding from scratch.

✅ Use Case Tip

If you're handling recurring entries like monthly rent, depreciation, or intercompany allocations, using this feature will cut down your entry time dramatically.

Dynamics 365 Business Central: Enabling Custom and Default Tables in the "Search Company Data" Feature

 Hi Colleagues, Today, we will discuss how we can search custom table data using the " Search Company Data " feature in Business Central. For more information regarding the " Search Company Data " feature, you can refer to the official Microsoft documentation: Search Company Data I have added a test customer to the default customer table.  and created three test entries in the Test Header custom table.

Dynamic 365 Business central: How to Automatically Insert Line Breaks After a Specific Character Limit

Image
Suppose, you may have a requirement to break long text into multiple lines after a certain number of characters in Business Central. For example, when dealing with lengthy descriptions in fields like "Work Description," it's important to ensure the text wraps properly to maintain readability. In this scenario, I have implemented a solution using a tableextension to automatically insert line breaks after a specified character length (45 characters in this case). The code takes the input string, breaks it into lines, and formats it accordingly before writing it back to the "Work Description" field. This ensures that the text is displayed in a neat and user-friendly manner in the system. Code:   tableextension 50140 MyExtension extends "Sales Header" {     trigger OnInsert()     var         TypeHelper: Codeunit "Type Helper";         Crlf: Text[2];         InputString: Text[2048];       ...
