- dimension-management-wiring.md/.good.al: split into the two distinct
models the article was conflating - master data (Default Dimension
records via ValidateDimValueCode/SaveDefaultDim) vs. transactional/
document data (a single Dimension Set ID assembled via AddDimSource +
GetDefaultDimID, verified against BCApps' ExchRateAdjmtProcess.Codeunit.al).
Added a compiling document-table example alongside the existing master
table one.
- Deleted api-page-flowfields-must-be-calcfields (.md/.good.al/.bad.al):
Microsoft's own FlowFields documentation states a FlowField used as a
control's direct source expression is automatically calculated on any
page - no API-page exception is documented, and none could be
reproduced.
- prefer-email-module.bad.al/.md: Codeunit Mail has no Send/GetErrorDesc
members; fixed to the real current 7-argument CreateMessage signature,
and corrected the claim that the legacy path "still runs" - its base
implementation no longer sends anything, only raises integration events.
- check-post-line-batch-pattern.md/.good.al: reframed from a universal
invariant to the standard shape, naming the real Gen./Item/CA/Res./Job/
Insurance/Mfg. Item/FA Jnl.-Check Line/-Post Line/-Post Batch codeunits
it's based on. Added the missing Check Line companion codeunit so the
good fixture is internally complete.
- test-data-must-be-random-and-complete.good.al: removed leftover
"collision-free" wording contradicting the already-corrected article text.
- fixed-choice-set-must-use-enum-not-integer.md: removed the reintroduced
state-count heuristic ("the line is the state count"), aligned with
binary-choice-must-be-boolean.md's semantics-based distinction.
- namespace-must-be-verified-from-source.md: removed the false claim that
the compiler and AL Language Server use different namespace-resolution
rules.
- intrinsic-al-functions-must-use-modern-casing.md: removed the unverified
claim that PascalCase is the VS Code formatter's default output.
Worklist completeness: added cues for the 8 rules in data-modeling,
testing, performance, and web-services that had none (Jesper's explicit
ask), plus the same gap in all 7 style rules from this PR (not explicitly
named this round, but the identical systemic issue) - 15 cues total across
al-data-modeling-review.md, al-testing-review.md, al-performance-review.md,
al-web-services-review.md, and al-style-review.md.

- Rename 3 articles so their .good.al/.bad.al companion stems match
(do-not-change-primary-key, testfield-required-setup-field,
al-identifiers-english), fixing the R14 orphan-sample errors.
- do-not-change-primary-key.good.al: include Flow in the new table's
own primary key so it actually models the discriminating dimension.
- al-build-output-must-not-pollute-project-root.md: drop the
unsubstantiated AL0197 causal claim and the non-existent
al.outputPath setting; reframe as build-artifact hygiene sourced
from ALTool --outfolder / al_build outputPath.
- prefer-email-module.md: Email Message is Codeunit 8904, not a table;
distinguish it from the underlying Sent/Outbox/Draft storage.
- file-datatype-saas.md: File.Open/Create/Read/Write fails to compile
against a Cloud-scoped project, it does not compile and silently
fail at runtime.
- namespace-must-be-verified-from-source.md: narrow to "resolve from
the referenced object's source or symbols," since source-file line
one is not the only authoritative source (symbol packages, comments
before the namespace line).
- test-data-must-be-random-and-complete.md: drop "assume an empty
database" and "collision-free" absolutes; reframe around
independence from unrelated business records and reserving explicit
values for scenario-defining inputs.
- binary-choice-must-be-boolean.md: scope to genuine true/false
semantics, not mechanical two-member-enum-to-boolean conversion.
- document-report-word-layout.md: scope down to a sourced Microsoft
Learn recommendation instead of an unconditional performance
guarantee; cite the three Learn pages.
- Wire the new articles into their review skills' candidate-selection
signals (file-datatype-saas, prefer-email-module,
namespace-must-be-verified-from-source, var-parameters-require-an-
addressable-variable) so they can actually enter a worklist.
