To create a new fact box in a Page in NAV using VS Code

[Chris-Dsilva]

Hi

What is the syntax to create a new fact box as as extension to a page in NAV using VS code

[esbenk]

Small code sample below. The first half is the definition of a new Part, the second half adds the new part to an existing page (in the sample to the Customer Card).

// The factbox part that should be added
page 70040000 MyOwnFactBox
{
    PageType = CardPart;
    SourceTable = Item;

    layout
    {
        area(Content)
        {
            field(Desc;Description) {}
        }
    }
}

// Page extension adding "MyOwnFactBox" to the Customer Card
pageextension 70004001 MyExtension extends "Customer Card"
{
    layout
    {
        // Add changes to page layout here
        addfirst(FactBoxes)
        {
            part(MyFactBox;MyOwnFactBox)
            {

            }
        }
    }

    actions
    {
        // Add changes to page actions here
    }
}

MyFactBox is the name of the part on the MyExtension page. All controls/parts are required to be named in the new syntax.
