2. Project Title: Ax 2009 and AIF File adapter without having actual input files. Concerned Module: AR. Description: AX needed to be integrated with the 3rd party website based on the file adapter. But as oppose to normal AIF file adapter document exchange where 3rd party needs to provide input/request XML first in the input folder, then AX will process it and generate a output XML based upon the request. We were needed to generate output XML based upon the AX business processes. For example; if Sales Order is created in AX, Item is created / updated, Addresses are created / updated. For this we wrote a custom logic in AX which skips input files requirement and instead directly puts read xmls in the AIF queue. Then from there onwards normal AX AIF process works. 3. Project Title: Ax 2009 Gantt Charts Concerned Module: All. Description: Ax uses a third party Activex control to display Gantt Chart graphics in Ax. This Activex is from NETRONIC, you need to purchase a developer license of this Activex to do development in Ax. A sample of Gantt in Ax can be found at Production Order form. This is fully customizable, you can place data filters, color selections, do trans at any node etc. Blog: This is my blog post on how to do Dynamics Ax Gantt chart development. 4.

Project Title: TRM Integration Concerned Module: GL / AR / AP Description: TRM is a standalone Sales Administration and Promotion Management package and this project is focused entirely on producing an excellent interface between Axapta and TRM using web services created in .NET and XML as a medium of data communication. TRM will provide additional customer and product attributes that relate to sales functions (including sales reporting). It will also provide the capacity to record indirect customers. TRM will provide considerable enhancements in the Sales Order pricing capability. These are such that it means that TRM will do the pricing, not Axapta. There are a number of financial transactions (Rebates, Fees, Claims, Accruals) created in TRM which means that TRM must create entries in the Axapta GL, AP and AR.

GL Journal #s. Invoice, sales order and shipments transactions are needed in TRM for various processes and inquiries. So when these transactions are created in Axapta, key data is used in creating matching transactions in TRM. 2. Project Title: Intervolve interface for Dynamics AX (Under development) Concerned Module: GL / AR / AP / Inventory Description: Multiflow supplies bulk beverages and beverage dispensing systems to bars, restaurants, and other food service establishments. A major mode of distribution is through route sales, using a fleet of vans. Van route sales people provide a full range of services, including sales order processing, billing, and collection. The route sales function will be supported by a mobile sales management system provided by Intervolve, interfaced to Dynamics AX. The sales order entry application will provide guided inventory and order entry capabilities to the mobile work force for Multi Flow. Route drivers will utilize a Pocket PC device, running Windows Mobile 5, to view and enter any data needed by Multi Flows Dynamics AX (Axapta) host system, which will be located in a central location. Information from these devices will then be synchronized between the handheld database to the central database for reconciliation and reporting. The mobile application is provided by Intervolve. The objective of this project is to design and develop an interface between the Intervolve sales order entry system and Dynamics AX version 4.0. Client - Fullscope (USA)

1.

The current Subcontractor Interface design for handling trading partner/subcontractor external transactions in Axapta is limited to specific transactions and data columns. Each installation has hard-coded mapping for each transaction type. New mappings or file types would require custom method code as well as transaction table column changes. This windows service can read data in many formats like XML, CSV, Excel etc. and writes transactions in the Axapta modules. Client - Iteration (USA)

1. Project Title: Sales Pricing Module Concerned Module: AR / Description: This Module supplements the sales pricing functionality available in standard Axapta and helps the user in estimating CRM quotation and arrive a specific sales pricing for a customer and a product. Client has different pricing structures for different branches and the prices and the adders are specific to a customer and a profile number. In Axapta, Customer specific prices can maintain through the trade agreements. But the price definition through trade agreement has an association with the Items on the Item Master. They cannot be related with the different attributes of an item. The purpose of this new Sales Pricing Module is to maintain adders according to different item and die profile attributes and arriving at a customer specific pricing. In other words, Trade agreements have to be maintained for each and every attribute defined for an item and the adders are retrieved from these tables according to the requirements on a sales order. It manages many more things then the standard Axapta. Maintain Base price of the metals and retrieve them when necessary. Maintain Different types of adders specific to TDA Pricing. Calculate the individual adder prices according to the TDA Price adder tables. Provide the user an interface to change the price of the sales order or a CRM Quotation after arriving at the estimated price. Arrive at a final sales price / quote price for a shape and quantity. Generate reports based on the quote/sales price. 2.

a Quotation reaching a status of 90 (indicating a Letter of Intent has been signed) a new Customer record will be created in ICS via the connector. Customer records will have a significant number of extended fields added in both Axapta and ICS to support the CRF fields mentioned under Business Description. Projects Management and Structure, All Projects must be created in Axapta (Projects created in ICS will be ignored by the connector). A Summary Project will be created in Axapta for each Management (or Holding) Company. The Summary Project will be used in Axapta only (for cost accounting purposes at the Management Company level), and will NOT be replicated to ICS. Sales Order and Work Order Management and Structure: All Materials sold to a Customer must originate as Item Requirements on a Sales Order in Axapta. Sales Orders will be replicated as Work Orders to ICS upon creation in Axapta if the Order Type is Sales Order. Item Requirements will be replicated to ICS as Planned Resources (Materials) on the Work Order corresponding to the Sales Order. As Packing Slips are posted against Item Requirements in Axapta, the corresponding Delivery Dates and Tracking information will be replicated to the Planned Resource lines on the ICS Work Order. To achieve this we created many classes & tables in Axapta and external interface is created with .Net framework using C#. Connection to the Axapta from the .Net is achieved through the Axapta Business Connector.
