Version 20.1.2.1
as of Business Central 20 2022/06/21
Corrections
An error in the Extended Text Lines has been fixed. If text was entered via the new text editor, then the text (max. 100 characters) was not transferred to the standard text field, thus the field was invalidated and could no longer be used.
The insertion of a placeholder did not work properly when lines were created from defined tables. For example, if the extended text page was opened on the item page and you then wanted to create a placeholder, a prompt to select the document type appeared before the field was selected.
Unnecessary action "Insert Placeholder" has been removed from the Extended Text Lines page. The action has been moved to the Text Editor page.
If there was no value for a placeholder when creating a document, then the placeholder was deleted. This caused that this value was not printed as expected when printing the document.
