Introduction
In this module, you'll learn how to create the different tables and pages for the rewards extension that was started in the previous module of this learning path. These objects act as the basic building blocks for any extension. First, you will start with the table objects that store the data in Dynamics 365 Business Central.
Tables are the fundamental objects in any extension. They are the objects in which you store and are able to manipulate data. This concept is true regardless of what kind of data that you need to manage. When you create a new extension, begin by building the tables. Later, you can create pages and reports to access and view the data in the tables.
The customer rewards extension requires the following tables:
Reward Level
Activation Code Information
Customer Rewards Mgt. Setup
In Business Central, pages are the main way to display and organize data. Pages are the primary objects that a user will interact with and have a different behavior based on the type of page that you select. Pages are designed independently of the device that they are to be rendered on and, in this way, the same page can be reused across phone, tablet, and web clients.
The customer rewards extension requires the following pages:
Reward Level List
Customer Rewards Wizard (This page will be created in a later module.)
