Yesterday we were installing PTE app on production environment and it throw an error as below.
We are juggled by seeing this message and thinking why it is showing an error message when we are uploading extension by using administrator login which is global administrator.
To overcome this error there is new permission set has been introduced in business central wave 1 2021
EXTEND. MGT. – ADMIN
You need to assign the above permission to install the app as below.
With the release of Business Central Wave 1 2020 new feature added to delete the extension data from production or sandbox. Prior to that we can uninstall the extension but data still there for the extension.
This feature will be useful when
1) Application is not in use.
2) Customer have desire to reinstall the extension data from scratch.
Let see how to uninstall and delete the extension data.
1) Launch the business central and search for extension management.
2) Select the required extension for uninstall. In this you can see new option added for delete extension data .
3) After selecting the option then you will get following warning message.
4) After click ‘YES’ then you can see ‘Delete Extension Data’ will get enable as follows
5) After that you can click on Uninstall then system will again warn before starting deleting data from extension.
6) If you are sure then click ‘YES’ and it will start processing to delete the data. This can not be undone.
