How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

I am thoroughly enjoying this book, it doesn't feel like I am reading a detailed techinical guide. Instead the book constructively and concisely walks you through the journey of creating a power pages website but does so through engaging you with a believable fictional storyline.This approach really works for me, often I read instruction manuals, forums and other sources of information and either struggle to retain the information or lose interest if they are too complex. This book simplifies and distils the complex aspects of power pages by sorting them into chapters of a journey of a business transformation.Another benefit of this approach is the ability to remember certain aspects of the journey so when it comes to practice it, you can remember a point in the history of the story rather than a heading in a guide that is meaningless if you are not an adept seasoned developer of the application. It is top class guided learning with easy to follow instructions and clear language that is relatable to those who may be unfamiliar with power pages and even when you may find something you are unsure about, you will often find a link to find out more via Microsoft, Google or other sources. This book is an all in one companion for learning web development, app development and leveraging power platform's Dataverse and PowerBI for data management to design an interactive website for your customer or user base. It also finishes by integrating AI aspects to your development process. If you are curious about just how much this book covers, just look at the contents to see the wealth of topics this book will teach you about! If you want to start to learn, or learn more about any of the above, this book will help you do just that!

So my initial thoughts on Microsoft Power pages In Action by Faisal Hussona, I had not really had a chance to see PowerPages since it became just that from my early days with ADX studio.Love the story of Rob the builder and the way it builds the story for Rob and the family business with use cases and custom CSS to Dataverse and forms what a great mix to build Robs incident management system brought back all those memories of views and form building as I did many years ago in D365.Great intro to JavaScript and jQuery and Liquid templates something I have not really delved into before so was enlightening.Nice piece on the agile workflow with user story and acceptance criteria great to see this as a Rob and Sarah example throughout the book for cloud flow timesheet approval notifications then onto one of my favourite subjects PowerBI allowing you to have filtering options on a Power BI visual, use Liquid code along with Power BI’s JavaScriptAPI.REST integration this book just gets better and better showing a xero with Power Pages integration and use of Postman to creating a PDF file from Dataverse to ChatGPTYou all need this book buy your copy here
