Output menuitem property "LinkedinPermissionObject" not visible in AX7

Hi AX Guys,

Need quick help.

I was recently making some changes in the existing RetailLabel report. I was creating a new design for my customized report format. After finishing the design, when i move to creating a new output menuitem for this new report design to be available in the AX menu, i simply create a new output menuitem and assign the relevant controller class to its object property. Now i need to set its "LinkedinPermissionObject", "LinkedinPermissionObjectChild", "LinkedinPermissionType" properties respectively so that my newly created design will be available upon generating the report, since this report is dynamically loading the report design at run time based on the above mentioned properties. But the issue is that these properties are not visible on the menuitem properties page. The properties and the values are visible if we just select that output menuitem in the AOT explorer window as shown below.

But when i open the menuitem in designer to change its properties, these properties are not visible, so how do i set the values for the above mentioned properties.

Is it a Bug of AX7 or some configuration that i am missing? Any help will be highly appreciated..

Hi Muhammed,

How did you overcome this problem ?

@Sohaib Cheema

I've tried editing the XML file for a new output menu item , but the properties not showing up in the AOT. Build , rebuild , clean solution has been done. Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance.

I am not sure about reason of issue. will try to look into reasons later.

But I remember couple of times, when I faced such issue.

To continue with my work, I used the xml file from disk to add required properties. you can give a try to that. i.e open xml file for this menu item which will be located either on J:\ drive or c:\ drive under packages and you can add required stuff directly in xml file.

No.. basically i have created a new model say "TestModel". and in that i have created a new project say "TestProject". Now i created a new output menuitem say 'TestMenuItem'. now when i select this menuitem in the AOT explorer view, it is showing the above mentioned properties but they are in disabled state. i.e i can't change/enter in that. When i open this menuitem in designer to set is property values, these properties gone invisible and not showing any more in the property window. So how do i set those values since these values need to be set in order to run a functionality based on the set values.

Hope you get my point.

What I understand from this is you have created a new model and in that model you are trying to reference an object which is in system model likely in application suite.

Let’s retrace the steps this is how it should be done

Go to Dynamic Ax model management-> create model name your model select exiting package this bit is important your model should be in same package where you want to overlay or customize. In our case I will select application suite and next select other depended package model you thing might be involve application foundation is mainly important to select

Hi Faheem,

May be that's the issue, but the thing is that i am creating a new output menuitem in my newly created model and still these properties are not visible on the menuitem... Now both objects exists in the same model..but still i am unable to set those properties..

Any idea what is causing this?

Make sure your current model is same in which the object exits. For example if your report is application suit make sure to go into that model then add what you want.
