Option to create or edit labels from the objects

In D365 if we need to create a new label and assign that to Label or Help text of an item, we have to create label in the label file and then paste in the object. There is no way by which via the object properties we can create a new label or edit existing one. There should be an ability to cr...

The label editor is needed as a separate construct to separate the label definition from the label use. We'll look at ways to speed up the creation of labels in the future.

Improvements of "Find references"

Evaluation of cross-references is very important with such a large code base (for understanding the current solution, for impact analysis and so on). Unfortunately the experience is worse than in previous versions of AX; here are some suggestions:

  1. Allow filtering and sorting.
  2. ...

    There are multiple suggestions here. Thank you. Some are already possible (like filtering and sorting). I will keep this idea under review and monitor the comments. We need to improve this part of the Dev Tools.

Export openapi definition from Finance and Operations instance

We'd like to document our custom APIs with OpenAPI compatible documentation tools (such as swashbuckle, spectacle (https://sourcey.com/spectacle) etc.)

DEV VMs with up-to-date cross references

Please rebuild cross references on the DEV VM before making it available. They currently contain references to modules that aren't included at the box (unit tests) and don't contain xRefs that should be there. For example, I had to rebuild the application to get "Find event handlers" working.

Aspects of this has been incrementally addressed starting in platform update 9. We are also rolling out a more complete version of the XRef DB out of the box in platform update 13.

Provide the option to set decimal point precision to less then 6 for FinOps decimals and display accordingly in CE

Via virtual entities Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations (FinOps) data could be displayed in grid view in Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (CE). Decimals are always displayed with 6 digits after the separator (e.g. 365.220000). 6 digits are confusing users when decimal amounts are displayed in...

I agree on the usefulness of this feature. It is currently not planned because of other priorities, I will keep this idea active and under review.

Allow ehanced extensions & debug directly on binaries (without XPP files)

Because we deliver deployable packages (Bin) to a customer, there is no 'xpp' and no possibilities to make enhanced extension on that. Of course, we want to give the opportunity to our customers to make extensions on our functionalities. But we want to be sure that our code will not be stole b...

Support for NuGet packages in X++ projects

NuGet packages are extremely useful for adding and updating dependencies to .NET projects, especially in complicated cases. It would makes sense to be able to add NuGet packages to X++ projects in the same way as to C# projects, for instance.

I can recognize several scenarios:

Allow disabling an index through an Extension

In the past in for example AX2012 we were able to disable indexes on tables where we have a lot of data in, with a lot of indexes which are not used in our implementation. This was especially useful for large tables, on which standard AX created a lot of indexes which are not useful for use (as ...

Adding an index containing fields from the parent and child tables when using Table Inheritance

The Table inheritance was functionality introduced in AX2012. You can this way make tables inhering from a base table with the 'Support Inheritance' and 'Extends' properties on the table. DirPartyTable is a standard example using this functionality. But also EcoResProduct. I’m using it n...
