Most of the corpus — FindSet/SetLoadFields/CalcFields patterns, permission sets, SingleInstance codeunits, DataClassification, IsolatedStorage, transaction scope, SecretText — describes BC platform behaviour that is identical across supported versions. The seed [26..28] range on every file implied a version-specificity the content does not actually have, and there was no way to express "applies to every version" in the schema the way [w1] and [all] already do for countries and application-area. Extend the v1 schema with a universal sentinel for bc-version, parallel to the sentinels already defined for the other dimensions: bc-version: [all] # applies to every BC version [all] is mutually exclusive with explicit versions. Range shorthand ([26..28]) and explicit lists ([26, 27, 28]) continue to work for files genuinely tied to a version-gated API or deprecation. Update read.md (field definition, matching semantics, partial-context rule), write.md (default to [all], use ranges only with a concrete reason), README.md (frontmatter example), and the CI validator. All forty existing knowledge files and the three action skills convert to [all]; none of the current content is version-gated. Validator passes.

# Choose Insert, Modify, and Delete parameters deliberately

## Description
|
|
|
|
Insert, Modify, and Delete accept a boolean that controls whether the table's OnInsert / OnModify / OnDelete trigger fires. Running the trigger for scratch or migrated data is often unnecessary work — side effects, posting rules, validations — for rows that were already validated upstream. Running the trigger when application logic depends on it is non-negotiable.
|
|
|
|
## Best Practice
|
|
|
|
Call Insert(true), Modify(true), or Delete(true) when the table's trigger logic is part of the operation's semantics. Call Insert(false), Modify(false), or Delete(false) when the operation is bulk data movement or temporary-table manipulation and the trigger would duplicate work or fire invalid side effects.
|
|
|
|
See sample: `use-insert-false-when-skipping-triggers.good.al`.
|
|
|
|
## Anti Pattern
|
|
|
|
Blindly passing `true` everywhere pays for triggers on rows that do not need them. Blindly passing `false` silently skips validations that the table's author intended to be mandatory.
