How to compare an AOT object in D365FO.
If you received a project export (.axpp file) and you want to see what's the changes between this file and your current code. While importing this project (from Dynamic 365 menu in VS), right-click on the object and you will get the option to compare this object from your current metadata.
It will open a compare window
where
1 is a model store or your current metadata.
2 is Target file or file from import project
3 is a menu bar with 'Next', 'Previous', 'Expand all' and 'compare code' options.
when you click on 'compare code' option it will open this compare file in the visual studio itself, similar to other compare option.

Yet another blog for Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. (I hope this name is not changed by now ;) ). This blog primarily targets technical readers. I will be sharing my experience with Dynamics AX using code snippets, errors, and solutions, Tips, and tricks. PS: Don't use any code directly on production DB, review code thoroughly, and test it in DEV instances first.

What about comparing Form extension with actual form. How can we do that?
ReplyDeleteHi Harron, When you open that form in design, in top search bar type 'e:' and you should be able to see changes in your extension only. Give a try and let me know if that work for your requirement.
