Moving object between layers.

There is a very simple way to move objects between layers in AX.

I will try to explain it using an example.

E.g. Moving objects from USR layer to CUS layer.

Follow these steps:

• Logon to the USR layer.
• Export the object that is suppose to be moved to CUS layer.
• Now delete the object in the USR layer.
• Logon to CUS layer.
• Import the xpo from the USR layer in the CUS layer.

We have successfully moved the objects from USR layer to CUS layer.All the changes are on USR layer now for this object.

Note: Always start from uppermost layer(USR->SYS) when the changes are on multiple layers.Also it is a good practice to make a project in case of multiple objects.Same steps should be followed on the project.

Thanks

Service could not start in timely fashion when trying to start AX 2012 service

Hello all,

You may encounter this issue when you are trying to begin a AX 2012 service.The service status is "starting" for long time with no response.

Solution:
1)Wait for some time and check if the service begins.Just r-clk -> refresh.

2)If the 1st solution didn't work for 10 mins or so then do the following :

• r-clk ->properties ->Log-on(Tab) ->this account
• now browse and enter your login name
• after that enter the correct password & confirm password.
• It will say this changes will take effect only when the service restarts.
• Now try stopping the service if it allows you to do so.
• After stopping the service, start it again.This time the service should start successfully.(Do wait for the service to start even if it shows the same message again)
• If the service is unable to stop then restart the system.Let the system load completely and wait for sometime so that the services start.This time the service should get into "started" status very soon.

In case of any doubts please add your queries to the comments.

Thanks
