AX 2012 - How to avoid to restart AOS for cache refresh on deployment of new objects e.g. SSRS

Sometimes on deployment of new objects, one has to restart AOS to refresh the cache on Server. This one is not good on production server. In order to avoid it, there are four Action menu items, which can be duplicated and set to RunOn: Server in property and then run to cause cache refresh on server. The names of menu items are as below:

\Menu Items\Action\SysFlushAOD

\Menu Items\Action\SysFlushData

\Menu Items\Action\SysFlushDictionary

\Menu Items\Action\SysFlushReportServer

The property RunOn: Called from, can be changed to Server on all of these menu items.

Aging period definitions (form) [AX 2012]

Use this form to set up and manage user-defined aging period definitions.

You can use aging period definitions to analyze the maturity of customer accounts and vendor accounts, based on a date that you enter. That date, together with the unit and interval information that you enter on the Periods tab in this form, is used to calculate a date interval for each aging period (column header) in the aging period definition.

Each aging period that you set up for the aging period definition corresponds to a column on the list page or in the form or report when the analysis is performed. The aging periods are shown on the list page or in the form or report in the order in which you set them up in this form. You can change the order of the periods by selecting an option in the Printing direction field.

Rename Product Dimensions To Match Your Business

Product Dimensions within Dynamics AX are great because they give you four extra elements that you can use to segregate out all of your products, and you can start reducing the number of base product codes that you use. By default the main three dimensions are named Size, Color, and Style, but if you think of your product dimensions in different terms, don’t disregard this feature, because you can rename them to be whatever you like.
