Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Extended Texts

Extended texts in Microsoft Dynamics NAV can be used to create item descriptions as well as to add some extra information to the sales order lines in the shopping cart.

For more information about how to add item description in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, see "Item Description".

Extended texts used for the items allow to add some extra information which will be shown in the shopping cart under the sales order line. You can use extended texts for an item if, for example, you sell an item at a special price for a limited period. Thus, you can add this information to notify a customer.

Add extended text to an item

Step 1: Open the Item Card and at the top click: Related Information > Item > Extended Texts.

Step 2: On the General FastTab, select a language code if you want to add extended text for a specific language available in your webshop, or you can use All Language Codes checkbox to add extended text for all languages.

Step 3: You can use the start and end dates to determine when extended text should be visible in the webshop.

Step 4: On the Lines FastTab, add information which should be shown in the shopping cart under the related sales order line.

You can add several lines. Each line will be shown in the shopping cart one above the other.

Step 5: On the Item Card, on the General FastTab, select  the Automatic Ext. Texts checkbox.
