Working on AL coding guidelines
When creating your AL project (and your .al files), remember to always follow these main guidelines.
Inside an .al code file, the structure for all your objects must follow this sequence:
- Properties
- Object-specific constructs:
- Table fields
- Page layout
- Actions
- Global variables:
- Labels (old text constants)
- Global variables
- Triggers
- Methods
Remember to always reference the AL objects by their object name and not by their ID. So, for example, this is how you reference a Record variable or a Page variable:
Vendor: Record Vendor;
Page.RunModal(Page::"Customer Card", ...);
In an event subscriber object, this is how you should reference the publisher object:
[EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::MyCodeunit, 'MyIntegrationEvent', '', false, false)]
local procedure MyIntegrationEventSubscriber...
