ERROR: The model file MyModel.axmodel is from a newer version of Microsoft Dynamics AX (version 6.0.1108.670) and cannot be installed.

This is a common problem you may encounter when you are dealing with multiple build versions of AX 2012. Specially on a single server.

This is because of the axutil used to import is a later (newer) version than the axutil used to export the model. If you have multiple build versions on a single server. Then I would recommend you use the command line method, rather than the powershell method. Also, use the axutil under the server folder. This should match the environment you are exporting from.

Let me explain this another way. When you are running powershell method, it loads up the dll located under the ManagmentUtilities folder. When you use the command line you have a choice of using either AXUtil executable.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\ManagementUtilities\AXUtil.exe

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\DynamicsAx2012\bin\AXUtil.exe

Just see the properties of the dll. Notice the version number.

AX - How to use Map and MapEnumerator

Similar to Set class, Map class allows you to associate one value (the key) with another value. Both the key and value can be any valid X++ type, including objects. The types of the key and the value are specified in the declaration of the map. The way in which maps are implemented means that access to the values is very fast. Below is a sample code that sets and retrieves values from a map. static void checkItemNameAliasDuplicate(Args _args) { inventTable inventTable; Map map; MapEnumerator mapEnumerator; NameAlias nameAlias; int counter = 0; ; map = new Map(Types::String, Types::Integer); //store into map while select inventTable { nameAlias = inventTable.NameAlias; if (!map.exists(nameAlias)) { map.insert(nameAlias, 1); } else { map.insert(nameAlias, map.lookup(nameAlias) + 1); } } //retrieve fro...

AX - How to use Set and SetEnumerator

The Set class is used for the storage and retrieval of data from a collection in which the values of the elements contained are unique and serve as the key values according to which the data is automatically ordered. You can create a set of primitive data types or complex data types such as a Class, Record or Container. Below is sample of a set of records. static void _Set(Args _args) {     CustTable       custTable;     Set             set = new Set(Types::Record);     SetEnumerator   setEnumerator;     ;     while select custTable     {         if (custTable && !set.in(custTable))         {             set.add(custTable);         }     }     if (!set.empty())     {    ...

Approve Workflow via email using template placeholders #Dyn365FO

Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations has placeholders which can be inserted into the instructions. Normally you would want this to show up in the email that is sent. One of the most useful ones is the URL link to the exact record that you are approving. In the workflow configurations use the placeholder and build up your message. Towards the end it has workflow specific ones. The URL token is %Workflow.Link to web% . For the technical people the token is replaced in this class WorkflowDocumentField. This is what I inserted into my email template. <BODY> subject: %subject% <BR> message: %message% <BR> company: %company% <BR> for: %for% <BR> </BODY> Should look like this. The final result looks like this. If you debug these are the place holders that are put together.
