    Article summary

    The following tables illustrate the General tab of the Lasernet parameters page.

    Default values

    Description

    Clear Lasernet cache

    Refresh Lasernet cache such as SharePoint attachments, report parameter references, expression parser, Odata metadata, and fix reports. All records in the LACDictData table have also been deleted. Records in LACDictData contain information about all tables, fields, and methods from the Application Object Tree (AOT) in Visual Studio that can be selected in the query wizard or report structure. After the records in the table are deleted, the table will be rebuilt with information from the AOT, the first time a user opens the Query wizard.

    Clear entire cache

    Run Clear Lasernet cache and standard Dynamics 365 FO classes to clear cache:

    SysFlushData - Refresh data cache.

    SysFlushAOD - Refresh Application Object cache. This will clear cached application object information for all elements in the AOT.

    SysFlushDictionary - Refresh dictionary cache.

    SysExtensionCache - Refresh the extension cache.

    Create cleanup batch job

    Create a batch job that cleans up temporary DocValue, temporary table buffer, and tables pre-processed in SSRS.

    Clean up buffer for temporary tables

    Empties LACBufferForTmpTables.

    Expression function

    List of system functions that are available in expressions. Allows adding and further managing methods/functions.

    Culture into adjustment

    Allows specifying, adjusting, and overriding the default culture settings if needed. Using this option can be useful in a self-service environment or, for example, when incorrect formatting is applied to numbers (real), date, and/or date/time. It works in the DEV/1Box environment, and it is only an issue in the Dynamics 365 FO self-service environment. The formats are automatically loaded once a culture/language is entered. It is also possible to load default settings to revert back to the existing ones. Once culture settings are defined, they are applied in the system. This influences, for example, how numbers, date, and time values are presented. After a report is executed, a corresponding culture/language ID is specified as the LACReportCulutreId value.
