DIXF error [AX2012 CU8]

Issue: While Open Processing Group (Data import export framework/Area page/Common/Processing Group), system throws below error message.

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Dynamics.AX.Framework.Tools.DMF.PreviewGrid, Version=6.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.



Possible reason:

After a fresh installation of AX, we have DIXF as a module but we need to install additional component as well to use DIXF.
In this case we need to install DIXF client services from installation media.

Solution:





Install DIXF client services from AX setup and restart the AOS services.

How to Export/Import Label files in AX 2012

Label are pretty different in AX2012 instead of earlier version of AX. Here is quick steps to import and export Label files from one Environment to other. You also perform an update on label files.
Export a Label file:
Open AOT, Expend Label node. Choose Label and require language to export. You can do it for individual language or you can select multiple language all in once.

Exported file will save on selected path with extension “.ald”.
Import Label File:
Right click on Label node in AOT and select “Create from File”, choose ald file to import than hit create.




Update a Label file:
Import the new updated label file system will ask to overwrite , go ahead

It will update your existing Label file.
Note: You must run full Synch after every import/Update.

Date manipulation through X++ code [AX 2012]

Hi Folks,

I come though a requirement where I need to manipulate on “FromDate” and “ToDate”. When user enter these value through a dialog box, user can select any day from month for eg.

From Date: June 6, 2015
To Date: August 20, 2015



And to perform some action on Financial stuff we may need to consider the whole month like
from June 1, 2015 to August 31, 2015

You can fetch this month range in your x++ code, here is a sample code, try it…
static void theAxapta_MonthRange(Args _args)
{
    DialogField                     dialogStartDate, dialogEndDate;
    Dialog                          dialog = new Dialog("Month range");
    TransDate                       fromDate, todate;
    dialogStartDate = dialog.addField(extendedTypeStr(TransDate));
    dialogEndDate   = dialog.addField(extendedTypeStr(TransDate));
   
    dialogStartDate.label("From Date");
    dialogEndDate.label("To Date");
   
    if(dialog.run())
    {
        fromDate = mkDate(1, mthOfYr(dialogStartDate.value()), year(dialogStartDate.value()));
        toDate   = (mkDate(1, (mthOfYr(dialogEndDate.value()) + 1), year(dialogEndDate.value())) - 1);
       
       
        info(strFmt("Start Month %1", fromDate));
        info(strFmt("End Month %1", todate));
    }
}

Output:
