    Using the compare tool. Compare between your xpo file and your layer in which you are importing this xpo file. You should see red/blue color to indicate the differences between xpo file and the layer. You will then get the option to merge your changes from xpo to your current layer that you are importing to. You must select individual objects to do the comparison. For instance, only check the classes object and click on compare to use the compare too. This is just an example. You can do this for each node/objects within the file/project that you are importing. Hope this helps.

    Hi,

    If it's only project name then even if you import it again it will not cause any issue as project is just hierarchical structure of objects.Later you will have two projects in your machine.Also I feel you can simply rename your project and no need to import it again.Is there any reason you to perform import.

    Hi,

    Is it a custom or standard form?When you say blue color you mean is it during comparison using comparison tool (or) something else?

    To Import The XPO File:

    Launch the Dynamics AX client.

    Click CTRL+D to open the Development Workspace.

    Select Command > Import.

    From the Dynamics AX AOT Import window, browse to the XPO file for your version of Dynamics AX (in the directory where you extracted the files from the Scribe Jumpstart for Dynamics AX to Dynamics CRM.zip file):

    For Dynamics AX 2012 R3: JumpstartFramework_2012R3.xpo

    For Dynamics AX 2012 R2: JumpstartFramework_2012R2.xpo

    For Dynamics AX 2012: JumpstartFramework.xpo

    Accept the import options and import the XPO file.

    XPO Import Messages

    Errors may display in the compiler output when you are importing the XPO file. When the import is complete, the output should be error-free.

    If you see the following message:

    <Object> <objectname> already exists in another layer. Proceed with import?

    Select one of the following options:

    Yes — Overwrite the specified object. Any customizations previously made to this object are lost.

    Yes to all — Overwrite all modified objects. Any customizations previously made to any objects are lost.

    No — Skip the import of the specified object. Carefully review the changes in the XPO and manually update the object with the changes needed for the jumpstart.

    No to all — Skip the import of all objects that exist in other layers. In this case, carefully review the changes in the xpo and manually update objects with the changes needed for the jumpstart.

    Cancel — Cancel the import process.

    If you see either of the following messages:

    Table does not contain a valid time state key. A unique index needs to be marked as a valid time.

    path: Data dictionary\Tables\DirPartyLocation

    or

    Field ValidTo does not exist.

    path: Data dictionary\Tables\DirPartyLocation

    Update the ValidTypeStateFieldType property, as follows:

    Use the AX AOT Data Dictionary to locate the DirPartyLocation table.

    Right-click the DirPartyLocation table and select Properties.

    Update the "ValidTypeStateFieldType" property setting to None.

    Save and close the DirPartyLocation table.
