Tip #2 - Pipe Filter with Excel | Alternative 3.

Hi all,



I just looked at the video by Kerry Rosvold , an article from Mark Brummel & an article from Mohana on how to make a pipe filter in excel.

Link To Kerry Rosvold Video.

Link To Kerry Mark Brummel Article.

Link to Mohana Article



I do it in a different way which is kind of similar to Kerry & Mohana , I used it for quite some time for Filtering objects in object designer While Merging a Rollup.

So this is how I do it, for example i will stick to same Records i.e customers as Kerry & Mark used.

I copy a few lines to excel like this:



And in Excel I paste, and copy the number column -


And I paste and Move First customer to Next column but in same row -

In Second Row use a Concatenate Formula -


Drag / Copy to Formula till last customer -


The Last row now can be copied and pasted as Value in different cell to get Filter.


There I have the filter.

Now we have three options. Maybe there are more.

Thanks again Kerry!, Mark! & Mohana!

Stay tuned!.

Regards,
Saurav Dhyani

MSDYN365BC - Data Upgrade To Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central on premises.

Hi Readers, We have already talked about the number of steps for upgrading to Business Central on Premises from different NAV versions. After that article, I received multiple requests for an article which list down steps for Data Migration. In this article, we will discuss steps of data migration to MSDYN365BC (on-Prem) from NAV 2017. For this article, I am considering a Cronus Demo Database without any customization. For an actual upgrade project, we will have to complete object merge using compare and Merge process. After the Merge Process, the next step is data migration. Let's discuss those steps. Direct Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (on-Prem) is from following versions - 1. NAV 2015. 2. NAV 2016. 3. NAV 2017. 4. NAV 2018.
