In C/AL-based versions of D365 BC/Business Central, functionality was updated through *.fob (or .txt) files. As of this release, functionality updates are done by replacing apps. The following steps describe the process.

Steps

  1. Run Windows PowerShell ISE as administrator.

  2. Load the D365 BC Modules:

    Import-Module "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\150\Service\Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Apps.Management.psd1"
Import-Module "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central\150\Service\Microsoft.Dynamics.Nav.Management.psd1"

  3. List the apps and version numbers currently installed (replace BC150 with the correct server instance):

    Get-NAVAppInfo -ServerInstance BC150

  4. Uninstall the current app (this example replaces Product Engineering Quality):

    Uninstall-NAVApp -Name "PE Quality" -ServerInstance BC150

  5. Publish the new app (replace the path and version number):

    Publish-NAVApp -Path "C:\...\Artifacts\IEMW115.2.38990.0\Lifecycle\app\To-Increase_PE Quality_15.2.xxxxx.0.app" -ServerInstance BC150

  6. Sync the new app:

    Sync-NAVApp -Name "PE Quality" -ServerInstance BC150 -Version 15.2.xxxxx.0

  7. Upgrade the new app:

    Start-NAVAppDataUpgrade -Name "PE Quality" -ServerInstance BC150 -Version 15.2.xxxxx.0

  8. Remove the old app:

    Unpublish-NAVApp -Name "PE Quality" -ServerInstance BC150 -Version 15.2.xxxxx.0
