Business Central Top bar has changed

Has anyone noticed that the top black bar has changed? I used to be able to see if I was in production or sandbox, it provided the name and that’s gone. Also if I click on the Available Companies, I no longer see the Sandbox environments.

Hi @Nick_Firth

Yes :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: we noticed the same thing.

The top black bar used to clearly tell us whether we were in Production or Sandbox, now it’s like a little guessing game. And the Sandbox environments not showing under Available Companies threw us off, too.

Looks like another quiet UI change from Microsoft. For now, we’ve been double-checking from LCS / environment details just to avoid doing something “exciting” in Production by mistake :sweat_smile:

Would be good to know if this is intentional or just another rollout surprise.

Thank you! Glad it wasn’t just me, it’s mildly annoying and would like to know as well the reason around it.

Seeing similar weird behavior… Some see other environments & companies (ex. from Production can see Sandboxes & their companies). However, if they switch to a Sandbox company they loose visibility to the Production company. For other users it’s reversed & they can’t see Sandboxes from Production. URL’s with the explicit environment & company seem to be helping, but painful.
Is there a particular permission set or change that’s needed to always see other companies?
