Tiniest Tricks for AX usability
For updates to this, please go to my new blog http://atys-gmbh.de/tiniest-tricks-for-ax-usability-2/
If you work in a system for some time you learn tricks that make it easier to use that system. Usually, you don’t even realize that you use them until you watch a new user and ask „But why don’t you …“.
So I thought I’d start a collection of some of those tiny tricks I use in AX very often. I will add to the list as I go along in my projects and notice something that might help new users.

Look for an entry similar to the following – it will probably be scheduled to run once a day, early in the morning. Weiterlesen

I’m currently working on Multi Site Activation in a WMS II environment on AX2009, with the latest KR. Looks like there are some bugs – or at least, not all „real-life“ scenarios are covered in a useful way. Let me make quick notes on them, maybe it’ll help you, too: Weiterlesen
Broken Alerts? Bad Wizard!
Your alert rules stopped working all of a sudden? Chances are you’ve modified your database log setup and thereby killed the alerts.
What? Why? But how?
(Add the end of this post, you’ll find an X++ job that will revive your alerts)
(Edit, Dec. 16, 2015: Applies to R2, R3 fix is identical to „my“ solution!)
