## Calls

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 43 "Language"](../codeunit/43.md) (5 calls: `BuildCaptionBuf → GetLanguageCode`, `BuildMemoBuf → GetLanguageCode`, `BuildMemoMultilanguageText → GetLanguageId`, …)
- [Codeunit 9806 "Field Selection"](../codeunit/9806.md) (1 call: `RetrieveFieldColumn → Open`)
- [Page 358 "Objects"](../page/358.md) (1 call: `LookUpObjectId → (object)`)
- [Page 9186 "Generic Chart Query Columns"](../page/9186.md) (1 call: `RetrieveFieldColumn → (object)`)
- [Page 9188 "Generic Chart Customization"](../page/9188.md) (1 call: `ChartCustomization → (object)`)

## Called by

- [Page 9183 "Generic Chart Setup"](../page/9183.md) (23 calls: `CheckAggregation → CheckDataTypeAggregationCompliance`, `CheckAggregation → GetQueryCountColumnName`, `FillMatrixWhenOpenPage → GetUserLanguage`, …)
- [Page 9188 "Generic Chart Customization"](../page/9188.md) (20 calls: `CheckAggregation → CheckDataTypeAggregationCompliance`, `CheckAggregation → GetQueryCountColumnName`, `FillMatrixWhenOpenPage → GetUserLanguage`, …)

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "codeunit", object_name: "Generic Chart Mgt")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
