Power Pages (Part 1)

Sales Orders
I used Microsoft Power Pages to build a Customer Portal for Dynamics 365 Business Central. Power Pages is a low-code platform for external-facing business websites, and the portal gives customers visibility into their Sales Orders.
Sales Orders
I connected the Customer Portal to Business Central Sales Orders using virtual tables.
Solution
I created a Power Platform Solution
Under the hood: The synthetic relation
A user should see only the sales orders that belong to their company. The Sales Order table does not have a real relationship with the CRM Account table, so I created a synthetic relation. It matches the account's Account Name field to the sales order's customerName field, and the table permission then uses it to limit the rows to the user's own company.
