How axapta converts date to hijri?

Posted on by 70

Hi everybody

as all you know , dynamics ax 2009 supports hijri and um al qura calendars and date system

i want to know how dynamics converts georgian date to hijri

i mean is there any class in AOT that is responsible for this job?

there is a class in AOT named calendarconverter but its just responsible for calendar lookup form and axapta converts georgian date to hijri in another way.

its really important for me and my job to know and find this class if exist

thanks for your care

    Hi Vbnet

    thanks for your care but

    as you can see i wrote about this class in my first post

    i should repeat that this class is just responsible for calendar lookup , NOT DATE CONVERSION SYSTEM.

    even when you change calendar lookup form to another calendar like jalali , when you choose a date in that calendar , it will write hijri date in your selected field

     i want to know axapta date conversion mechanism itself
