The DMF import package manifest does not support all data management features or honor some settings for data entities when importing data packages through the Odata service for DMF. Note: It is understood that these features are accessible through the AX UI but to support data movement between environments these features need to be supported through the web service mechanism.

Repro steps:


Using at method similar to the one here:


https://github.com/Microsoft/Dynamics-AX-Integration/tree/master/FileBasedIntegrationSamples/ConsoleAppSamples/DataPackageHandler


 



Using an import package use the Odata API to load a DMF package into an AX environment. This import project should have Truncate Data Entity set to yes. Each data entity should have Default refresh type set to Full Push. There are no options in the manifest schema to set these on an import (or export for the refresh type) project through the Odata interface.


 


Additionally the data entity settings for run business logic and business validation are not honored from the manifest on import but use the environment settings only. It would be beneficial for these to be settable through a data package for one time imports without changing the default environment settings.


I.e. <RunBusinessLogic>true</RunBusinessLogic>


<RunBusinessValidation>true</RunBusinessValidation>
