Webinar:
Word Layouts in Business Central: An Overview

What is covered by this Business Central webinar?

RDLC gets all the attention, but for many reporting scenarios in Business Central, Word layouts are the faster, more maintainable and more business-friendly choice. The problem is that most technical consultants and developers have never taken the time to properly understand how they work, and that gap shows up in reports that are hard to update, poorly branded and more complex than they need to be.

In this 60-minute expert session, Microsoft MVP Steven Renders gives you a thorough, practical understanding of Word layouts in Business Central, from the fundamentals all the way through to production lifecycle management.

Steven covers the full picture: how the dataset and layout separation works, how data flows from the report object to the rendered output, how to design and brand a layout from scratch in Word, and the technical considerations that most tutorials skip, including limitations compared to RDLC, dataset design best practices and performance. No shortcuts, no happy path only.
The right layout choice saves hours. Knowing Word layouts gives you that choice.

Who should take this course?

Consultants and AL developers working with Business Central who want to confidently design, implement and manage Word layouts for reporting, and know when to reach for Word instead of RDLC.
