Dynamics NAVAX

Common query I have seen a few times. Thought to share a simple tip. There are times when items are deleted or moved to a different model. In that case you may need to see the deleted items to roll it back or see what was deleted. In visual studio, go to the Options and tick the flag to “Show deleted items in the Source Control Explorer”. Alternatively click on this button. Thanks to Joris for pointing it out.

For sometime I have been working on a project which uses multiple models. TFS doesn’t support multiple models and one of the issues is labels. It only works with a single label file from the system settings. My project was building a new module in AX with its own label file. This way we don’t have a dependency on the the existing implementation. We decided to keep it simple by modifying the class that returns the default label id when objects are checked in. By making the small change below – It will return a specific label id (ABC) when you are in the particular model (MyModel).

Just today, I tried setting up TFS online.
