Check documents and journals in while you work in Dynamics 365 Business Central


Microsoft has implemented a new feature that validates the data you enter on documents and journals while you work. It will notify you and assist you in identifying problems with your documents and journals. These visual indicators will help you increase productivity and save time. It's a must-feature in our Top 10 features of the Business Central 2022 Wave 1 update.


Business Value: To alert you about issues with data in documents and journals that can prevent you from posting, we've introduced validations that identify issues right away. Early, unobtrusive visual indications of a problem can help improve productivity and save time.
