I’ve been reading and listening to podcasts about how to market yourself better. One common piece of advice stood out: “Write your story every day—what you accomplished, what you struggled with, and what you tried. People love to read or listen to real stories.”
This blog has been around for over a decade. In this age of Generative AI, you might wonder: Who still reads blogs? But think about it—tools like ChatGPT and Copilot need to pull from somewhere. Blogs still matter. Content still matters. SEO is evolving into AEO—Answer Engine Optimization—where your story might just be someone else’s answer.
So here’s my story for today.
I was working on a trade agreement customization in D365 Finance and Operations. It was a small but tricky enhancement.
The requirement was simple in theory: Whenever a new trade agreement is posted, check if a similar record already exists. If it does, update its ToDate automatically.
I identified the right hook in the PriceDiscTable, and that became the key.
These three tables became the center of gravity for the customization:
PriceDiscTable
PriceDiscAdmTrans
PriceDiscTable
It was one of those days where a deep dive into seemingly small logic led to satisfying results.
Thanks for reading. Hope you found this little story interesting. Let me know if you’d like me to share more from my D365 journey.
