AX 2012 R2: Visual studio tools on Visual Studio 2012

Posted on by 725

Hi Experts,

I am having issue on visual studio development tools of AX 2012 R2 on VS2012. The installation was successful but when i open VS2012, i don't see the Dynamics AX project template and Application explorer.

Is vs tools supported in VS 2012 or not? do i need to do anything extra?

Regards,

    Visual Studio 2012 can be installed

    side-by-side with Visual Studio 2010,

    but Visual Studio 2012 is not

    supported for Microsoft Dynamics AX

    development.

    Please validate system requirements for dynamics ax 2012 r2 guide provided by microsoft

    AX 2012 isn't compatible with VS2012.

    You have to use VS2010. I think the licence for VS2012 also covers VS2010 so you just have to install it and you should be good to go.
