Description

Hello All,

I would like to submit an extensibility request to enable seamless integration of our product with Business Central's E-Document framework.

While the E-Document object itself is extensible and allows us to add custom fields, the page that users are redirected to from the E-Document record is not extensible. This limitation prevents us from customizing the user interface and exposing additional fields required for our functionality.

Making this page extensible would allow us to add and display custom fields, resulting in a more seamless and user-friendly integration experience for feature enhancements built on top of the E-Document framework.

Thank you for considering this request.

If possible, I would greatly appreciate having this change delivered as part of the upcoming major release (v29).

I will provide the implementation for this BC Idea
