Dynamics Nav 2009 License File
Dynamic Nav 2009
In the License Information window you can see the contents of the license file under which you are working. The information includes the license number, who owns it, which application granules you have purchased, and – if there is a time limit – when the license expires. Normally when you are working, your own serial number (and the name of your company) should appear in the window. If it is not your license file that is shown in the window, you must import your own file by clicking Import at the bottom of the window.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV: How To Identify Licensed and Out of Range ObjectsIf you are upgrading Microsoft Dynamics NAV and want to export the objects as text files, the process can generate errors related to the license range. It would be handy to identify all the out of range objects at one time rather than handle them one at a time. Regular WayIf you simply start exporting all the objects, the error would pop up for every instance of an object that does not fall under the license range. We would need to ignore all such objects and proceed until end. Better WayThe following object locking feature is available if you are using Microsoft Dynamics NAV version 2009 and above.Open Object Designer, Select all objectsSelect File Menu-LockFigure 1 – View of the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Object DesignerDo you want to lock the selected objects?Select Yes.Figure 2 – Object Designer after locking the objectsThe column Locked will show which object(s) are locked, and the Locked By will show the user who locked the objects. You can see in the image where several objects are not locked, since these objects do not fall under the permissible range. You can now filter Field Filter – F7 for Locked Objects and export the text file of it in one go.For more information on topics related to Microsoft Dynamics NAV development, read more on the, written specifically for Dynamics NAV developers.
