Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 DataDictionary Synchronization errors

There was a working environment of Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 with data.

I just changed its database file without changing the model file.The database file was without data.

After attaching the database i try to synchronized the data dictionary.

After synchronization I got the following error message on around 18 tables:

Below is the screen shot of this error that i was getting

I also compared the ids of the objects on which I was getting the errors in the sqldictionary table and the AX environment but the ids were same.

After getting some help from the below links I deleted the table on which I was getting the sync errors in the SQL Server Management Studio and than sync that table on Micosoft Dynamics.

After doing the above steps on each of the table that's generates the errors my issue was resolved.

Below are the links for more info on this.

Sql Query to Copy Data from one table of Database to Another table of different database

To copy large amount of data from one table of one Database to another table of different Database.We can use the below query.

note:To copy the data one thing keep in mind that the table definition in both the databases should be the same.

INSERT INTO MicrosoftDynamicsAX..userinfo 

SELECT * FROM MicrosoftDynamicsAX_Deleted..USERINFO where USERINFO.ID = 'admin'

The above code will copy the data from "userinfo" table of database "MicrosoftDynamicsAX_Deleted" to the "userinfo" table of database named "MicrosoftDynamicsAX"

Error Renaming the Database name in Microsoft Sql Server

When I was trying the rename the database manually the Microsoft SQL Server was throwing the below error:

The database could not be exclusively locked to perform the operation.

After doing some research on this. I found out that there were some connections with that database already exists.

To resolve this we need to close all the connections first and than rename the database.

Below is the query to do all of this for us.

use master
ALTER DATABASE OldDBName SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE    
ALTER DATABASE OldDBName MODIFY NAME = [NewDBName]

ALTER DATABASE NewDBName SET MULTI_USER

here OldDBName is the name of your existing database and NewDBName is the name that you want to change.

More information on this can be found on the below link.

Creating Multi Select lookup in SSRS reports in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

In this tutorial I share you the steps of creating the multi select lookup.

Below is the screen shot of the multi select lookup of how its looks like.

First of all we need to create the parm method in the contract class for this multi select company lookup.

As you can see this in the below image.

After that we need to bind the control to this parm method of multi select company lookup to the dialog box in the build method of the UI Builder Class.

After  that in the postRun method of the UI Builder Class we are calling the another method that we have created to create the lookup on the companyField Control.

Below is the definition of this companyLookup method.

In the above code the selected field container contains the fields which are selected by default when the lookup is open.You can also show the empty container if not to show any field selected by default.

This was all related to the multi select lookup in SSRS Reports.

If you have any question related to that than feel free to approach me.

Using Radio Button Control for RDP Based SSRS Reports in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 part 2

This is the second post related to the radio button control for RDP Based SSRS Reports.

In this post we will learn on creating the radio buttons using the enum with style property set to combo box.

below is the screen shot of the enum with style property set to combo box.

Below are the steps for creating the radio buttons from the enums of style type combo box.

First of all declare the following variables in the class declaration of the UI Builder Class.

After that write the following code in the build method of the UI builder class.

After that write the following code in the post run method of  the UI builder class after the super() method.

The above code is basically registering the override modified method on the selection change of the radio buttons.

Below is the definition of this reportTypeModifiedMethod

The above method is basically enabling and disabling the custAccount lookup on the selection change of the radio buttons.

Now after doing all of this please refresh the datasource node of the report on visual studio to see the parameters reflected there.

After running the report the parameters looks like this.

On the selection of "EEO prepartion" the custAccount lookup will gets disable as our reportTypeModified method that we have discussed previously is doing this.

One thing we noted here is that there is no need to create the contract method of the enum if the style of the enum is combo box.

This was all related to the creation of radio buttons from the enum having style = combo box.

Feel free to comment if you need further info on this,

Using Radio Button Control for RDP Based SSRS Reports in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 part 1

Radio Buttons are created on the report parameter through the enums.

There are two scenarios.IF the style of the enum property is radio button than code is different and if the style of the enum property is combo box than code will be different.

First I will give the example of  the enum which have style property set to radio button:

Below is the screen of the enum with style property set to radio button:

First we have to create the parm method for this enum in the contract class.

Below is the screen shot for this.

Than in the build method of the UIBuilder class we need to add the following code to show the radio button control on the dialog:

Now in the postbuild method of the UI builder class I am getting the bind control and registering a method on the selection change of this control.

the type of dialogFieldFilterBy is DialogField.I have declared this in the class declaration.

Now the method that I have registered in the this control will enable disable some other controls based on the selection change of the radio control.

Below is the definition of this method that I have registered.

After  doing all of this just refresh the datasources on the designer node of this report in visual studio so that parameters should appear in the parameters not of report.

Now after running the report the checkbox control appears like this:

Now on the selection change of this radio control the method will be called that we have registered previously i.,e filterbymodified

Now when I select the ProjectQuotation from the radio button ItemGroupId and ItemId will be disabled and Project Field will be enable due to the execution of the code in the registered method.

As you can see this in the below image.

This was all related to the radio button in SSRS reports using the enum with style property set to radio button.

In the next post I will give the example of  creating the radio buttons with enum with style property set to combo box.

Thanks
