How do you initialize AX 2012 R3 for Retail without Contoso Data?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by RyanC 655

I am trying to initialize my AX 2012 R3 setup for retail without Contoso data and I noticed that the Default inventory journal, kit kournal and catagory journal don't have the choices in them to initialize the system for retail.  These are all included in the Contoso data but we do not want to use that to set up this system.

Does anyone have any instructions on how to do this?

Remember this system has NO contoso data.

Thanks,

    Constoso is just like you said, demo data - has nothing to do with real-life setup and implementations. For those a properly prepared functional consultant would do the setup.

    For starters, right click on the field > View details, then enter the information required. After that you may select values in the dropdowns.

    Hey Vilmos, I did figure it out.  I created an inventory counting journal (Inv Mgmt > Setup > Journals), a trade agreement journal (Sales & Marketing > Setup > Price Discount) and a number sequence (Organization administration > Common > Number sequences).  Then I enabled finanical components:

      - Bank

      - Cost Accounting

      - Currency

      - Fixed Assets

      - General Ledger

      - General Ledger - Advanced

      - General Ledger - Advanced II

      - Payroll

      - Procurement I

      - Procurement II

      - Project I

      - Project II

      - Project III

      - Public Sector

      - Retail

      - Sales and Marketing

      - Service Management

     - Trade

     - Trade Agreements

    Could probably enable less but this worked.
