Hi, Readers.
Dynamics 365 Business Central 2025 wave 2 (BC27) is generally available. More details: General Available: Dynamics 365 Business Central 2025 release wave 2 (BC27).
I will continue to test and share some new features that I hope will be helpful. In this post, I would like to talk about Editable fields in page customizations.
This new feature is not yet documented in the Business Central 2025 release wave 2 (BC27) release plan and AL Language extension changelog Version 16.0, but it is mentioned in What’s new: AL Language
More details:
The TextConst data type is text constant. We have briefly discussed this before. More details: Dynamics 365 Business Central: What is TextConst Data Type???
With this wave (BC27), Microsoft added manipulation methods for this data type.
The following methods are available on instances of the TextConst data type.

| IndexOf(Text [, Integer]) | Reports the one-based index of the first occurrence of the specified string in this instance. |
