Introduction to JavaScript

With ForNAV, we have introduced the option of using JavaScript as a supplement to writing C/AL code in reports.

As JavaScript is new to most Dynamics NAV developers and consultants, we have provided some inspiration to get you started:

• Our webinar on YouTube, which focuses on the possibilities with JavaScript in the ForNAV Designer. You can watch a short introduction to JavaScript in general, see examples of how you can use JavaScript in ForNAV, and listen to a discussion about some of the pitfalls you should avoid – https://youtu.be/4cwbxUq-tc8
• A report example (fob file) – http://www.fornav.com/documents/JavaScriptWebinarDemo.fob
