Different use of AL Find Functions for Filters in Dynamics 365 Business Central

This post provides tips about different find function in Business Central, including both long-standing C/AL strategies and newer concepts like partial records. FindSet vs FindFirst/FindLast FindSet and FindFirst/FindLast are two methods utilized in Dynamics 365 Business Central for extracting records from a table.
