Dear team,
 
Can we use version control in AX 2012 R3?
 
If yes, pls let me know how to install it and how it's worked. Because there is no concept of Azure DevOps.
 
Kindly advise pls.
 
Thanks in advance.

    You may want to check AX 2012 documentation, namely Version Control System. You can also find various blog posts or videos on the topic.
     
    As you see, version control is supported and you even have several systems to choose from. In practice, you'll choose either MorphX VCS or TFVC (Azure DevOps)
     
    MorhpX VCS is a very simple system storing versions directly in AX DB. While it doesn't support many more advanced features, it may be a good choice for you learn a bit about VCS. Just don't forget to think about the storage when doing operations like DB restore.
     
    TFVC is much more powerful, but it requires more knowledge and management. Also, Microsoft doesn't support sharing the same DEV box by several developers when using TFVC. Workarounds exist, though. If you want to learn more about Azure DevOps, you'll again find a plenty of information on internet.

    Thanks for the reply.
     
    What I understood, TFS is the best approach for the Version control.
    So, we need to think few things like :
     
    1. To install TFS
    2. To configure TFS to use AX
    3. Needs to configure developer workspace 
    4. Add objects to the Version control 
    5. Check in
    6. Synchronise with Version control 
     
    Am I correct with above points?
     
    Kindly elaborate me point no.2 & 3
     
    Thanks in advance.
