Microsoft continues to invest in new releases of Microsoft Dynamics AX

We want to make sure that our customers can benefit from these investments when time is right for them. In addition, Microsoft aims to make this transition easy with tools and services to simplify the upgrade. Enhancements in new releases, including choice of deployment and the new integration platform, will provide organizations with flexibility when deploying one of these new releases in existing infrastructure.  We realize that planning and taking your organization on such a journey is a major effort and requires time. For that reason, we have decided to extend the product life-cycle support for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 except as specified below. This extended support timeline gives customers more flexibility to choose the best timing and more options for their business to upgrade to a newer release of Microsoft Dynamics AX.​
 
The mainstream support date will be extended to April 10, 2018.   Customers who remain current on the Microsoft Dynamics Enhancement Plan will continue to receive all of the valued benefits of the Enhancement Plan, including regulatory updates and hotfixes

How to import data in Ax2009 from a CSV file

-
In Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009, importing data from a CSV file can be done through the Data Import Export Framework (DIXF) , AIF (Application Integration Framework) , or by using X++ code to handle custom imports. Here's a step-by-step guide to importing data from a CSV file: Method 1: Using AIF (Application Integration Framework) AIF is commonly used for integrating external data in AX 2009. Here's how you can use it to import data from a CSV file. Step 1: Create an AIF Service Define an inbound port for the data import: Navigate to Basic > Application Integration Framework > Channels .

July 2017 update: Form Adaptors Replaced by Type Providers

-
The July 2017 update of Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, Enterprise edition includes many new features and changes. One of our new features is  type providers . Type providers are a new way to interface with forms in unit tests without a form adapter model. Previously, when a developer built or changed a form they would also have to add the adapter for the form to the same solution and rebuild the model to see the new form changes in test code. Type providers provide instant design time support, so that tests can access forms. With type providers, we have removed the need to maintain a form adapter model and the need for extra compile time to generate and compile the form adapter model. We removed the form adapter models in the July 2017 update because they are expensive to run and maintain. In general, the type provider framework requires less processing time, and is more flexible to use than the form adapter models.

Declarations can occur anywhere in the method. Both languages permit multiple variables of the same type to be listed together in one declaration. Both languages allow you to assign an initial value in the declaration statement. if  and  else conditional statements The  if  statement accepts any type of expression that it can automatically convert to a Boolean. Common examples include an  int  for which 0 means false, or an object for which null means false. The  if  statement requires a Boolean expression. The syntax structure regarding curly braces and parentheses is exactly the same between X++ and C#. Literal string A literal string can be delimited by either of the following: A pair of double quotation mark (") characters. A pair of singl...
