The previous LLM-generated knowledge files contained factual
hallucinations. The most visible was the claim that `FindFirst` /
`FindLast` "forces a full-table scan" on an unfiltered record - it does
not; those APIs return a single row via the current key.
Other inaccuracies the audit found and fixed:
* `FindSet(true)` was described as "taking a LockTable". The correct
upstream phrasing is that `FindSet(true)` sets
`ReadIsolation::UpdLock` on the read. UpdLock and LockTable are
related but distinct mechanisms.
* The list of production-scale tables had been invented beyond the
upstream source (e.g. "Detailed Cust. Ledg. Entry") without a
citation. The regenerated list matches the ten tables upstream lists
with their P95 row counts.
* `SetLoadFields` guidance had been augmented with an extra mechanism
claim ("the database resolves the filter using the index without
hydrating the value") not present in upstream.
Approach: full regeneration of `microsoft/knowledge/` from the six
upstream BCApps Code Review instruction files, with Microsoft Learn /
the AL language reference as a secondary source. Every claim in every
regenerated file is anchored to a verbatim upstream quote (or a Learn
URL); the audit trail lives in artifacts/trace-<domain>.json on the
session workspace.
The PR #11 transaction/error-handling cluster is preserved verbatim:
* performance/understand-implicit-transaction-boundary.md
* performance/codeunit-run-as-atomic-sub-operation.{md,good.al,bad.al}
* performance/codeunit-run-requires-prior-commit-inside-transaction.{md,good.al,bad.al}
* performance/use-tryfunction-for-error-catching-not-rollback.{md,good.al,bad.al}
* performance/avoid-commit-inside-loops.{md,good.al,bad.al}
* security/commitbehavior-attribute-scopes-explicit-commits.{md,good.al,bad.al}
* testing/transactionmodel-attribute-governs-test-transactions.{md,good.al,bad.al}
These articles already cite Microsoft Learn and were carefully
cross-referenced; the regeneration skips their topics rather than
duplicating them.
File counts after regeneration:
performance 35 .md (5 preserved + 30 new)
privacy 17 .md
security 18 .md (1 preserved + 17 new)

# Group-labeled first child exception
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
`ShowCaption = false` is acceptable on an editable field only when **all** of the following conditions are met:
|
|
|
|
1. The control is the **first visible field** in its parent group.
|
|
2. The field has `ShowCaption = false`.
|
|
3. The parent group has a visible caption: `ShowCaption` is true (the default) **and** the group has a non-empty `Caption` value.
|
|
|
|
When these three conditions hold, the group caption becomes the accessible label for the field. This works regardless of whether the field is multiline. The presence of `InstructionalText` on the field is irrelevant to this check.
|
|
|
|
## Best Practice
|
|
|
|
Do not second-guess this exception. If the three conditions are met, the pattern is acceptable — even if the group caption seems generic (e.g. "General Information") or does not exactly match the field name.
|
|
|
|
See sample: `group-labeled-first-child-exception.good.al`.
|
|
|
|
## Anti Pattern
|
|
|
|
If the parent group has `ShowCaption = false` or no `Caption`, the first-child exception does not apply: the field has no accessible label anywhere.
|
|
|
|
See sample: `group-labeled-first-child-exception.bad.al`.
