Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Source to Target data upgrade

What is this feature ? The source to target upgrade model provides a framework to reduce the downtime for AX upgrade.The upgrade downtime is achieved by enabling upgrade on both the source AX system (Ax 4.0 or AX 2009) and target AX system (Ax 2012). The upgrade consists of following steps. 1. Pre-upgrade processing on a live source AX system 2. Bulk data copy to target system, 3. Optimized data transformations (write once per table), and sync-on-the-fly to the target AX 2012 4. Fix duplicate RecID as a part of the upgrade process How do we upgrade using this feature ? The user installs an XPO on the source AX system being upgraded, launches the pre-upgrade checklist, and walks through the pre-upgrade checklist items. Most of the checklist tasks can be executed on a live AX system and rest within a single user mode. Concurrently the user can setup the AX 2012 environment for upgrade by installing AX 2012, choosing the upgrade option, and then launching the upgrade checklist an...

How to update vendor addresses in Dynamics AX 2009

Exporting data to Excel

As there are merits of a solution which depend on the situations and conditions in which they are used, I am suggesting one more alternate for achieving the objective i.e. Exporting data to Excel. In this solution we will make use of standard AX’s Reports and the concept of exporting the report data to an Excel file. I assume that we all understand that any standard AX report can be sent to a variety of Output devices such as Printer,Screen,Fax,File ( CSV,TXT,PDF,EXCEL etc) . The disadvantage in this is that the report headers is repeated after every page break and that is an undesired part . In the following walkthrough we will get over this problem as well as restrict the output to a file so that it gives a look and feel of an data export functionality. We will create a sample report for exporting the Price agreements data to Excel Start creating a report in AOT as per the following steps : Step 1: Create a class as shown below in which we would declare objects. ...

Dynamics AX 2009: FTP Adapter for AIF

from Markus Nöbauer The Application Integration Framework in Dynamics AX is an extensible framework for data transportation and reception. It support the separation of transport technology (e.g. MSMQ, XML/SOAP Webservices, Filesystem Share) security aspects (services, permissions, transported data) and data manipulation. Creating new adapters to support other transport technologies is simple. Here is an example to support FTP. Develop AIF FTP Adapter First, create a new parameter table AifFTPParameters to store FTP server name, user, password and directory (4 strings). Next create a setup form for the AifFTPParameters table and a display menu item. Add an OK command button. Add this code to the buttons clicked event: void clicked() {;     super();     // use the server name as selected value      element.closeSelect(Setup_ServerName.text()); } Create a new AifFTPSendAdapt...

Job to export all AX 2009 security groups to files

Alex wrote a nice and quick job that can export the existing security settings in Dynamics AX 2009 to a folder This is very helpful when we make frequent changes to security and need to have a quick backup of the existing settings. I have been changing security a bunch lately and it's nice to have a backup of your previous settings if you make a mistake. Here is a quick job I wrote to export your existing security settings to a folder.   static void ExportSecurityGroups(Args _args) {   SysSecurityUserGroup sysSecurity = SysSecurityUserGroup::construct();   UserGroupInfo userGroupInfo;   #file Dialog dialog = new Dialog( "@SYS14863" );   DialogField dialogFileName;   Object formdialog;   ;   dialogFileName = dialog.addField(typeid(FilePath), "@SYS16423" );   dialog.doInit();   formdialog = dialog.formRun();   for...

calculate total sales order or sales quotation amount / discounts / tax etc., through code( X++ ) in AX

this can be achieved through code using SalesTotals class. Check out the below code snippet. SalesTotals   salesTotals; SalesTable   salesTable; container   displayFields; str     totalTax, amountWithoutTax, amountInclTax; salesTable = salesTable::find('SO-1112345'); salesTotals = SalesTotals::construct(salesTable, salesUpdate::All); salesTotals.calc(); displayFields = salesTotals.displayFieldsCurrency( salesTotals.currencyCode() ); amountWithoutTax = conpeek(displayFields, TradeTotals ::posBalance()); amountInclTax   = conpeek(displayFields, TradeTotals::posTotalAmount()); totalTax    = conpeek(displayFields,TradeTotals::posTaxTotal()); In the above way, we can get all the values available in the totals form in the Sales Order Form by changing the TradeTotals values. We can get the values in the desired currency by providing a valid currency as a parameter to the displayFieldsCurr...

Send message to online user in Dynamics AX 4.0 (quick & dirty)

I am missing the functionality to send messages to online users that existed in Axapta 3.0 and is now gone. Well, I thought you could use the "Alert" functionality introduced in DAX 4.0. What to do: 1. make sure the user options are configured correctly (that means: set "Time poll interval" to 1 minute, set "Show popup" to "For all event rules") 2. make a button in the online user form that will open a dialog where you could enter your text 3. send the message to all users selected in the online user form datasource Here is a little job that creates an alert for a user. Remember this is a quick & dirty solution, so there are some drawbacks: * you will get an error in the alert form on the second tab * the message will only be displayed about 15 sec and disappears afterwards (you can check FRM EventAttentionGrabber to change that. Check methods fadeIn and fadeOut for variable opacity. This should give you a hint on how to display the f...

Be careful when resetting your usage data

in Dynamics AX 4.0, a "Favorites" menu was introduced. You can drag a form to your favorites pane. Then you will be asked to give it a name, and: you can add a saved query to it. With that, you can easily make favorites the open the forms filtered on the data you just need. But there's another thing: as long as your system is still in change, everybody recommends that you delete your usage data from time to time (in User/Options). But what happens to your favorites if you delete all your usage data? The answer is: you'll get an error message. The system will tell you that it cannot find your saved query anymore. So, the whole work saving your queries and making your favorites is lost. A small little addition to the method " reset " in the form " SysLastValue " will help you avoid that. Add the line && _sysLastValue.recordType != UtilElementType::UserSetupQuery; in the "delete_from" statement. So, the deletion will not delete your ...

Activating query tracing for all users

Sometimes when you are tracking performance (or other) problems, you may want to activate the long running query tracing for all users. Here is a little job that will do that. Beware: you have to activate trace settings on your AOS server, unless most of the queries will not be caught. static void Set_SQLTrace_AllUsers(Args _args) { #LOCALMACRO.FLAG_SQLTrace (1 << 8) #ENDMACRO #LOCALMACRO.FLAG_TraceInfoQueryTable (1 << 11) #ENDMACRO boolean set; UserInfo userInfo; ; set = true; ttsbegin; while select forupdate userinfo { userinfo.querytimeLimit = 1000; if (set) { userInfo.DebugInfo = userInfo.DebugInfo | #FLAG_SQLTrace; userInfo.TraceInfo = userInfo.TraceInfo | #FLAG_TraceInfoQueryTable; } else { userInfo.DebugInfo = userInfo.DebugInfo ^ #FLAG_SQLTrace; userInfo.TraceInfo = userInfo.TraceInfo ^ #FLAG_Trac...

Executing direct SQL on the current AX database

When you execute a SQL statement, there are two options: - either you did a select and you expect a result to be returned - or you did insert/update/delete and you don’t expect a result. The first sample is for a SQL statement that returns a result: public static server void main ( Args _args ) {     Connection    connection;     Statement      statement;     str                  query;     Resultset       resultSet;     ;     // create connection object     connection = new Connection ( ) ;     // create statement     statement = connection. createStatement ( ) ;     // Set the SQL statement     query = 'select name from CustTable' ;     // assert SQL statement execute permission     new SqlStatementExecuteP...

Linked server sql statements

Some time ago, I talked about executing direct sql statements , and now I want to share some sql statements that I used to manage linked server connections. What follows are 4 sql statements that allow you to add en remove linked servers on a database at runtime. Some assumptions: - There is a str variable named “query” that will contain the query - there is a parm method on the class that return the sql server (“server” or “server\instance”) - there is a parm method that returns a username - there is a parm method that returns a password Check if linked server exist First check if the linked server doesn’t exist yet, or you will get an error when you try to add one that already exists. query = strfmt ( "select top 1 * from sys.servers where name = '%1'" , this. parmServer ( ) ) ; Add linked server When the linked server doesn’t exist, add it. query = strfmt ( "EXEC sp_addLinkedServer @server = '%1', @srvproduct=N'SQL Server'...

Remove duplicate key entry from a table

Sometimes, you can’t synchronize a table because is contains duplicate records. This can occur when you change field lengths on a extended data type for example. I’ve seen people write huge SQL statements, and even jobs that create these SQL statements to remove these duplicates from a table, but there’s actually a easy way to do this in AX. Say you have a table KLFTestDuplicates that contains duplicates, then simple run the following job to remove them. static void KLFRemoveDuplicates ( Args _args ) {     Set fieldSet = new set ( Types :: Integer ) ;     DictIndex  dictIndex = new DictIndex (         tablenum ( KLFTestDuplicates ) ,         indexnum ( KLFTestDuplicates , AUniqueIdx ) ) ;     int i;     ;     if ( dictIndex. numberOfFields ( ) )     {         for ( i = 1 ;i <= dictIndex. numberOfFields ( ) ;i ++ )       ...

Append text from one file to an other

This method will append all text from the original file to the destination file. While this is a very easy task, the method shows many of the things you come across when you are working with files in AX, like: - Using the #File macro - Asserting FileIOPermission to be able to access files - Asserting InteropPermission to be able to use .NET Interop - Using a set to assert multiple permissions at once - Using .NET Clr Interop in AX (better than winapi and winapiserver) - Optional cleaning up after you’re done using reverAssert() void AppendFileToFile ( FileName original , FileName distination ) {     #File     FileIOPermission    FileIOPermissionA   = new FileIOPermission ( distination , #io_append ) ;     FileIOPermission    FileIOPermissionR   = new FileIOPermission ( original , #io_read ) ;     InteropPermission   InteropPermission   = new InteropPermission ( InteropKind :: ClrIntero...

Delete an AX company on SQL

This week, we were shrinking a database of a development environment by deleting some companies. Here a nice little SQL statement that uses the sp_MSforeachtable stored procedure to delete all records of a specific company (CEU in this case) from all tables. EXEC sp_MSforeachtable 'delete from ? where ?.DataAreaID = "CEU"' Certainly fast(er than AX) and gets the job done. Use at your own risk ;-) Update: You’ll want do do some cleaning up to: delete the company id from the DataArea table and from the CompanyDomainList table DELETE FROM DataArea WHERE DataArea . ID = 'CEU' DELETE FROM CompanyDomainList WHERE CompanyDomainList . CompanyID = 'CEU' Update 2: When you want to delete all companies execpt a few (like DAT), just use this: EXEC sp_MSforeachtable 'delete from ? where ?.DataAreaID <> "DAT" AND ?.DataAreaID <> "DEMO"' DELETE FROM DataArea WHERE DataArea . ID <> 'DAT...
