(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 56

Hi all,

as discussed in my previous thread "https://community.dynamics.com/ax/f/microsoft-dynamics-ax-forum/392706/new-label-file-for-japan/1056538#1056538"

i have successfully deleted the unwanted label languages from label file GDJ in DEV server.

my question is

i did some developments and created few label ids with @GDJ* . It's  working fine in DEV server.

I wants to import my developments in TEST server for testing. 

before doing this, should i first import GDJ label file in to TEST server ? if not, then i will not get label ids in to TEST server which i have created in DEV SERVER . i guess

please give me more shed on this,

I have the same question (0)

    Please don't create duplicate threads - you already have the one named How to move label file from one instance to another instance in AX 2012 R3. Please read the replies you've already got there and either mark the question as answered, or ask follow-up questions if needed. Ignoring what people told you and starting the whole discussing from the beginning makes little sense.

    HI @rp@n,

    You can try to import file by using create from file.

    Or you can use either Windows PowerShell cmdlets or the AXUtil command-line utility to export models to model files.

    As Martin pointed out that you have mentioned in another thread, label files are part of a model.

    Hi @rp@n,

    Yes, you need to import twice, because each language label file is separate.

    It should not be imported into DMF file, it should be a new file.

    Have you tried that? any errors?

    Hi @rp@n,

    You have to import twice if you want to import label file for 2 different languages.  It will create the DMF folder if label files belongs to that DMF model.
