About this book

In Detail

Microsoft Dynamics AX provides a comprehensive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution for mid-size and larger organizations. Dynamics AX implementations are used worldwide by thousands of customers. With the new version - Dynamics AX 2009 - the system is due to expand even more rapidly.

Every new implementation requires some level of customization, and all organizations want this to be done to the highest standards using proven approaches.

This step-by-step guide will help you manage your company's ERP information and operations efficiently, and solve your business process problems in an effective and quick way. This book focuses on commonly used custom modifications in major Dynamics AX modules. This book contains commonly used bits of code which were real-world tested in at least one successful Dynamics AX implementation. Many of the recipes were deployed in many implementations and even across several versions of Dynamics AX. The examples in this book cover various areas of Dynamics AX to help developers not only learn about programming, but also about the functional side of Dynamics AX. The book should help developers who already know the basics of Dynamics AX programming to step up to the next level.

The recipes allow you to look at the development from the perspective of business processes. You will learn to enhance your user interface using various Dynamics AX UI elements. Managing your data and functions will become easier. You will also get numerous development tips and tricks from a Dynamics AX development expert.

Find solutions to common Dynamics AX development problems and effectively manage your business processes, with clear and easy-to-follow recipes.

Approach

This book contains a list of useful Dynamics AX modifications - recipes - along with all required code and in-depth explanations. Most of the recipes are presented using real-world examples in a variety of Dynamics AX modules. The step-by-step instructions along with many useful screenshots make learning easier.

Who this book is for

This book is for Dynamics AX developers, and is primarily focused on delivering time-proven application modifications. Although new X++ developers could use this book along with their beginner guides, this book is focused more on people who are willing to raise their programming skills above the beginner level, and at the same time learn the functional aspects of Dynamics AX. So, some Dynamics AX coding experience is expected.
