Why we use virtual companies?

How can we restrict a class to be further extended?

using Final Keyword for ex: public final class <ClassName>

Which classes are used for data import export?

SysDatalmport and SysDataExport

From which table u can get the user permissions stored in Ax?

AccessRightList table

What should we do if we need last record to be active when a form is opened?

In properties of datasource table set the StartPosition property as last.

What is the sequence of events while a report is generated?

Init, Run, Prompt, Fetch, send, Print

What is an index?

An index is a table-specific database structure that speeds the retrieval of rows from the table. Indexes are used to improve the performance of data retrieval and sometimes to ensure the existence of unique records

Define IntelliMorph

IntelliMorph is the technology that controls the user interface in Microsoft Dynamics AX. The user interface is how the functionality of the application is presented or displayed to the user.

IntelliMorph controls the layout of the user interface and makes it easier to modify forms, reports, and menus.

Define MorphX

The MorphX Development Suite is the integrated development environment (IDE) in Microsoft Dynamics AX used to develop and customize both the Windows interface and the Web interface.

Differentiate refresh(), reread(), research(),executequery()

refresh() will not reread the record from the database. It basically just refreshes the screen with whatever is stored in the form cache.

reread() will only re-read the CURRENT record from the DB so you should use it to refresh the form data if you have added/removed records. It's often used if you change some values in the current record in some code, and commit them to the database using .update() on the table, instead of through the form datasource. In this case .reread() will make those changes appear on the form.

research() will rerun the existing form query against the data

source, therefore updating the list with new/removed records as well as updating existing ones. This will honour any existing filters and sorting on the form.

executeQuery() is another useful one. It should be used if you have modified the query in your code and need to refresh the form. It's like research() except it takes query changes into account.

Define AOT

The Application Object Tree (AOT) is a tree view of all the application objects within Microsoft Dynamics AX. The AOT contains everything you need to customize the look and functionality of a Microsoft Dynamics AX application

Define AOS

The Microsoft Dynamics AX Object Server (AOS) is the second-tier application server in the Microsoft Dynamics AX three-tier architecture.

The 3-tier environment is divided as follows:

• First Tier - Intelligent Client

• Second Tier - AOS

• Third Tier - Database Server

In a 3-tier solution the database runs on a server as the third tier; the AOS handles the business logic in the second tier. The thin client is the first tier and handles the user interface and necessary program logic.

Difference between temp table and container.

1. Data in containers are stored and retrieved sequentially, but a temporary table enables you to define indexes to speed up data retrieval.

2. Containers provide slower data access if you are working with many records. However, if you are working with only a few records, use a container.

3. Another important difference between temporary tables and containers is how they are used in method calls. When you pass a temporary table into a method call, it is passed by reference. Containers are passed by value. When a variable is passed by reference, only a pointer to the object is passed into the method. When a variable is passed by value, a new copy of the variable is passed into the method. If the computer has a limited amount of memory, it might start swapping memory to disk, slowing down application execution. When you pass a variable into a method, a temporary table may provide better performance than a container

What is an EDT, Base Enum, how can we use array elements of an EDT?

EDT - To reuse its properties. The properties of many fields can change at one time by changing the properties on the EDT. Relations can be assigned to an EDT are known as Dynamic relations.

EDT relations are Normal and Related field fixed.

Why not field fixed - field fixed works on only between two tables 1-1 relation. And Related field fixed works on 1- many tables.so edt uses related field fixed.

BaseEnum - which is a list of literals. Enum values are represented internally as integers. you can declare up to 251 (0 to 250) literals in a single enum type. To reference an enum in X++, use the name of the enum, followed by the name of the literal, separated by two colons. ex-NoYes::No.

Definition and use of Maps, how AddressMap (with methods) is used in standard AX?

Maps define X++ elements that wrap table objects at run time. With a map, you associate a map field with a field in one or more tables. This enables you to use the same field name to access fields with different names in different tables. Map methods enable to you to create or modify methods that act on the map fields.

Address map that contains an Address field. The Address map field is used to access both the Address field in the CustTable table and the ToAddress field in the CustVend TransportPointLine table
