    Hi all,
    I cannot tick your answers as verified, because of this Website issue. It has been going for loading for a long time....

    Hi,
    In addition to the official documentation, you can also check blogs about macros in AX to learn more. Apart from this, you can also search for videos about AX macros on YouTube.

    First of all, check out the documentation, namely Macros in X++. Just note that the remark about constants and SysDa framework doesn't apply to AX 2012; these are features introduced by F&O.
     
    You can find many examples in the standard application, but the most common case are these two:
    1. Definition of constant values. Either your own, or you can use constants defined in Microsoft macro libraries, e.g. #MillisecondsPerHour in #TimeConstants.
    2. Field lists in pack() and unpack() methods used in RunBase framework.
