Symbol usage guidelines from MS for Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations cross-apps

The symbol font is used by setting the ImageLocation property to "Symbol" and the Normallmage property to a symbol name listed below.

Guidelines for symbol use by location: 

- Navigation Bar: The symbols shown in the Navigation Bar are controlled by the client.
- Navigation Pane: Workspace symbols shown in the Navigation Pane are defined by the corresponding workspace tiles.
- Action Panes/Toobars: Buttons on the Action Panes should be a combination of symbols and text for frequently used actions with an appropriate symbol.
- Action Pane fly—outs: Symbols are not supported on buttons in Action Pane fIyouts.
- Grids can use symbols for status indication (e.g. done, warning, etc...).
- Tiles that initiate actions (e.g. New button tiles) should always use a symbol, whereas other non-count tiles can optionally include symbols. Count tiles are text only.
- Cards may contain symbols in Toolbars (see the guideline for Toolbars), to indicate status, and to denote the type of card (e.g. expense types such as airfare, meal, hotel).
- Buttons can have symbols that match the action being taken. Buttons should either use symbols to the left of the text, text only, or image only.

Look for visual of symbols @ Reference https://mbs.microsoft.com/files/public/CS/AX/DynamicsSymbolFont_Update35_searchable.pdf
