Debugging X++ code running on EP pages works in Ax 2012

I have been using Ax 2012 for some time now and i tried out the debugging of X++ code running on EP pages.

I followed these steps and it worked http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa629010.aspx

This was a big issue after Microsoft launched Windows Server 2008 with a totally new security model. I had few chats and meetings with Microsoft about this issue and Microsoft released a hot-fix soon afterwords. Even though debugging was almost not possible since you had for example to use the account that was to debug the code for the AOS.

I am very glad that this issue has been solved now and this is the key factor "A member of the Microsoft Dynamics AX Debugging Users local group on Windows"

Dynamics 365 for operations – Table extensions

Background Extensions are a new way to add functionality and custom code to the D365 system without changing the standard code. In fact, Microsoft has announced that edit standard elements like those that we have done in the past will not be possible after 2017. By using extensions, we can achieve the same result by simply extending the standard system => EXTENSIONS. To read more about the difference between overlaying and extensions follow this link https://ax.help.dynamics.com/en/wiki/customization-overlayering-and-extensions/#extensions Extending tables By using table extensions, we can create a new table that adds new fields, field groups, indexes, mappings, relations, methods, subscribe to event handlers and more. When extending tables we need to follow the naming rule as such: <TABLENAME><_Extension> the compiler understands the _Extensions suffix and knows that the table in question is extending a table from the standard system. This gives us access ...

Plug-able Authentication in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

I have worked in many projects involving the Enterprise Portal for Ax ranging from version 2.5. One of the biggest issue for the end customer/user has been the ability to have a plug-able authentication for EP. This has been an issue for example for customers that have other portals based on Share Point as well as custom build ASP.NET web sites. All these portals are able to share the authentication with Single Sign On, SSO. But until now with version 2012 of Ax this has not been possible since earlier versions of Ax have only supported Windows Authentication. So in scenarios where you implement an EP site for a customer that has other portals and uses for example forms authentication, if you are not running Ax 2012 you have to have a special/dedicated log-on to EP. One of the biggest advantages is the fact that now external users do not have to be in Active Directory mixed up with all the internal users or located in an extra AD repository with all the administrative IT work l...

SysOperationFramework

I have tried out the new SysOperationFramework of Dynamics Ax 2012 that is going to replace the old RunBase framework. The SysOperationFramework is service based batch framework and it is my feeling at the moment that it will provide us with more possibilities for creating and setting up batch jobs in the real world. There is no need for me to create a full blog about the SysOperationFramework since I am not the first one to try this out. So i will simply refer to another blog post about the SysOperationFramework  http://www.artofcreation.be/2011/08/21/ax2012-sysoperation-introduction/ Thanks to Art Of Creation – Dynamics AX Blog for an outstanding good blog post on the matter Happy batch programming my friends
