Summary

Adds the knowledge-ready slice extracted from #155 so the foundational AL guidance can land independently:

  • document initialization and directed rounding guidance
  • guarded interface casting guidance (runtime 15.0, BC 25+)
  • dropdown visibility and page-part refresh guidance
  • install/upgrade execution ordering and version-context guidance
  • targeted review retrieval cues for only these articles

Validation

  • python .github\scripts\validate_frontmatter.py --root .
  • pwsh .\.github\scripts\Test-KnowledgeIndex.ps1 -Root .
  • pwsh .\.github\scripts\Test-SkillIndex.ps1 -Root .
  • pwsh .\tools\Test-ReviewFixtures.ps1 -Root .

* Add Finance posting domain-knowledge pilot

Adds three atomic domain-rule knowledge files under community/knowledge/finance/ as a pilot for Type-A (normative) Business Central domain knowledge: post through the posting engine, treat posted ledger entries as immutable, and treat the Dimension Set ID as the source of truth for dimensions. Includes a good/bad AL sample pair for the posting rule.

These encode BC-specific invariants that LLMs reliably get wrong, fitting the existing remedial/atomic knowledge grain with no schema or contract changes. Passes the repo frontmatter validator and is discovered by the knowledge index.

* Clarify editable operational fields on posted ledger entries

Addresses review feedback from @JeremyVyska on PR #57: the immutability rule applies to financial content, not the whole entry. Reframes the Description around financial content and gives the operational-field exception (payment/application data, on-hold, applies-to, communication fields edited via CustEntry-Edit/VendEntry-Edit and the ledger entry pages) its own paragraph in Best Practice instead of understating it as a narrow set.

* Expand Finance pilot into a source-verified review domain

Move Finance knowledge to the Microsoft-owned layer, add nine scoped rules with eighteen AL samples, and register bounded Finance review with complete paired evaluation coverage.

* Fix Finance review applicability and ownership boundaries

Remove application-area gating and later VAT-field dependencies, align dynamic shared conventions, separate SCM ownership, and keep journal examples focused on the intended invariant.

* Normalize DateFormula article sections

Keep the analyzer-gap explanation in Description and its scoped probe evidence in References, without a novel Validation section. Normative guidance and fixtures are unchanged.

* Add SCM functional knowledge domain (#192)

* Add SCM functional knowledge domain

Introduce nine source-backed rules with original AL sample pairs, bounded SCM review routing, and complete positive/clean evaluation coverage.

* Normalize SCM knowledge and review ownership

Align article and AL sample conventions, keep BC facts separate from review mechanics, and clarify reciprocal Finance ownership without bespoke shared test assertions.
