Upgrade

Upgrade projects are lots of fun. They are full of challenges that keep you busy day and night all the time. I have encountered a very interesting challenge on my last upgrade project. The object upgrade process was completed, the data upgrade procedure ready to go, but when we started first tests we realized that the data upgrade execution takes some 39 hours to complete just Step 1.

Once upon a time, and really not such a long time ago, there was no such thing as a codenit type. In all honesty, there is still no such thing as a codeunit type – there is subtype , though. (Why we have subtypes, without having types, beats me, but let’s let the semantics go.) Nowadays, we have four codeunit types.
