Parallel compile through command prompt 

1. change the directory to the path where axbuild.exe file exits

Eg : cd E:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\MicrosoftDynamicsAX\bin

2. Run the following command

Eg: E:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\MicrosoftDynamicsAX\bin>axbuild.exe xppcompileall /aos=01 /altbin="E:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Client\Bin" /workers=6

To Export a model using command prompt:

1. Open command prompt as run as administrator

2. change the directory to management utilities 

for ex: if the managementUtilities are present in E:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\ManagementUtilities

3. change directory to E drive using cd E:

4. once the directory is changed enter the command E:> E:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\ManagementUtilities

5. E:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\ManagementUtilities> axutil export /model:DES /file:BPCheck (where DES is the existing model and BPCheck is the filename we need to export) 

Finally the model will be exported to E:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\ManagementUtilities.

To Find the phone number of the customer:

    LogisticsElectronicAddress LogisticsElectronicAddress;

    DirPartyLocation DirPartyLocation;

    int contactPhoneCounter = 0;

    while select Locator from LogisticsElectronicAddress exists join DirPartyLocation

    where

    DirPartyLocation.Party == _custInvoiceJour.custTable_InvoiceAccount().Party

    &&

    DirPartyLocation.location == LogisticsElectronicAddress.location

    && LogisticsElectronicAddress.type == LogisticsElectronicAddressMethodType::Phone

    {

        contactPhoneCounter++;

        if (contactPhoneCounter==1)

        {

                cachedCompanyContactPhone1 = LogisticsElectronicAddress.Locator;

        }

        else if (contactPhoneCounter==2)

        {

            cachedCompanyContactPhone2 = LogisticsElectronicAddress.Locator;

        }

        else

        {

            break;

        }

    }

Code to find Dimension Name:

public name hsGetDepartmentName(DimensionDefault  _dimensionDefault)

        {

             str                                 name;

              DimensionAttributeValueSetItem      valueSetItem; 

              DimensionAttribute                  dimAttribute; 

              DimensionAttributeValue             dimAttributeValue; 

            //Getting the Department name for the record.

              select DimensionAttributeValueSet from valueSetItem 

                    where valueSetItem.DimensionAttributeValueSet == _dimensionDefault 

                            join RecId from dimAttributeValue 

                                where valueSetItem.DimensionAttributeValue == dimAttributeValue.RecId 

                                    join RecId from dimAttribute 

                                        where dimAttributeValue.DimensionAttribute == dimAttribute.RecId 

                                              && dimAttribute.Name == enum2str(sysdimension::Department);

        

             name = DimensionAttributeValue::find(dimAttributeValue.RecId).getName();

        

            return name;

        }

To import demo data in AX 2012 R3:

1.       Install Test data transfer tool
2.       Open command prompt as administrator and then  cd\ C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Test Data Transfer Tool (Beta)
3.       Then type dp.exe import C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Test Data Transfer Tool (Beta) servername\axinstance name

Job for generating parm methods:

static void CreateAxBCParmMethod(Args _args)

{

    axGenerateAxBCClass axGenerateAxBCClass;

    axGenerateAxBCClass = AxGenerateAxBCClass::newTableId(tablenum(PurchReqLine));//tablenum can be the table                                                                                   //for which we want to generate                                                                                 //parm methods

    axGenerateAxBCClass.run();

}

Filter by field in ax 2012:

To have filter by filed option in ax 2012, we need to override context method at the control level in the design as shown below.

public void context()

{

    int             selectedMenu;

    formrun         fr;

    Args            ag;

    Name            strtext;

    querybuilddataSource qb1, qb2, qb3;

    classFactory    cf;

    query       q;

    #define.SysFormSearch('SysFormSearch')

    #define.FindEdit('FindEdit')

    PopupMenu menu = new PopupMenu(element.hWnd());

    int a = menu.insertItem("@DES212");

    int c = menu.insertItem("@DES213");

    ;

    selectedMenu = menu.draw();

    switch (selectedMenu)

    {

    case -1: //Filter by field

            break;

    case a:

            ag = new args(#SysFormSearch);

            cf = new classFactory();

            fr = cf.formRunClass(ag);

            fr.run();

            fr.wait();

//Reading User entered value for filter process

            strtext = fr.design().controlName(#FindEdit).valueStr();

            if(strtext)

            {

//Creating a query for filter

                q   = custVendExternalItem_ds.query();

                qb1 = q.dataSourceTable(tablenum(custVendExternalItem));

                qb1 = qb1.addDataSource(TableNum(InventTable));

                qb1.addLink(FieldNum(custVendExternalItem,ItemId),FieldNum(InventTable,ItemId));

                qb2 = qb1.addDataSource(tableNum(EcoResProduct));

                qb2.relations(true);

                qb3 = qb2.addDataSource(tableNum(EcoResProductTranslation));

                qb3.relations(true);

                qb3.addRange(FieldNum(EcoResProductTranslation,Name)).value(strtext);

                custVendExternalItem_ds.query(Q);

                custVendExternalItem_ds.executeQuery();

            }

            break;

    case c :   // Remove Filter

            q = new Query();

            qb1 = q.addDataSource(tableNum(custVendExternalItem));

            qb1.addRange(fieldNum(custVendExternalItem, ModuleType)).value(strfmt("%1,%2",enum2str(ModuleInventPurchSalesVendCustGroup::Vend),

                enum2str(ModuleInventPurchSalesVendCustGroup::VendGroup)));

            custVendExternalItem_ds.query(Q);

            custVendExternalItem_ds.executeQuery();

            break;

    Default:

            break;

    }

}
