Are you looking for an easy way to integrate external data into Business Central? Popdock widgets can be used to display context sensitive data with simple interface extensions.
With a simple Control Add-in extension, any page can call a Popdock Widget and filter the widget based on page data.
Why use Widgets instead of integrating data?
- No need to build complex extensions that modify or create tables in Business Central
- No need to modify the extension for change requests, modify the Widget in Popdock instead
- No worries about integrating the data and mandatory related data
