Business value

List pages now load faster.

Feature details

The Business Central server service now uses the performance feature partial records on list pages. This means the server will read only those fields that are shown in the list page from the database.

The performance improvements will depend on the following conditions:

  • How much data exists in the table that's referenced in the lookup page and how that table is indexed.
  • How many table extensions exist on the table that's referenced in the lookup page.
