    You tagged your question with both Microsoft Dynamics AX (current version) (= AX 7) and AX 2012 R3. Which one is correct?

    Yes it is possible, You can create any number of button grids for a screen layout. In each button grid you can design buttons which are required for that grid.

    First you need to design the buttons in a button grid later map the button grid to the screen layout in the designer.

    refer below links :

    You are right, this looks like a limitation. Could you share what is your requirement to add 5 button grids?.

    Hi,

    Looks like 5 button grids are hardcoded on POS form (see picture below).
    You can try to change code to add more grids.

    Why cannot you use 'popup menu' button type to show new grids on button click? (picture below)
