Understanding Field Groups
In Dynamics 365 tables, there is a property called Field Groups which helps in organizing and displaying data efficiently. There are two main types of field groups:
1. Drop Down: Used for adding fields to a drop-down control.
2. Brick: Used to display data as tiles.

Example: Extending the Customer Table
Here's an example of how to extend the Customer Table by adding a new field and including it in a drop-down field group.
fieldgroups
{
addlast(DropDown;CustomerRefNo)
{
}
addlast(Brick; CustomerRefNo,Picture)
{
}
}
Notes and Warnings
The fieldgroups keyword must be placed after the keys control in your code.
When adding Brick the last field should be an image field.
Ensure that the syntax for using a DropDown is exactly as shown, with the correct capitalization.
The server will automatically remove duplicates if multiple extensions try to add the same field more than once. A field can only be added to a field group once.
If the field you're adding to the DropDown has Visibility = false on the underlying lookup page, it will not appear in the drop-down.
