TFS 2010 configuration with AX 2012

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Hello All,

   We are working on configuring TFS 2010 with AX 2012. We have multiple development mahines with AX install. We have installed  TFS 2010  on one machine. We are able to configure the project collection and link it via the connect to Team Foundation Server.

  I have read on view forum posts that we need a Team server id.  Please point me  to the location how we can download it for TFS 2010. Also how to do we configure this with AX 2012.

How to  we restrict  AX 2012 object so that it is checkout to only one machine. Seems like we are able to make changes to the same objects on mulitple machines.

Having a MSbuild error when performing a Build definiation for a AX object. 

Thank you for your assistance.

    Hello,

    Team Server is no longer needed with AX 2012.  In prior versions, the Team Server was used to allocate object id's in the environment.  This is no longer needed in AX 2012.  Version Control System information can be found here:

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../aa639568

    I hope this helps.

    Best Regards,

    if you do not need a team server,  that is fine, but   I do not understand how we make sure the object is not checked out multiple times to different development clients.. Also how would you deploy the objects to different development machines so that all the machines are  in sync with the central object code.

    Thank you

    Isn't that part of what a versioning system is made for?

    Yes. it is. Team Foundation Server meets your requirements.

    If an object can be checked out exclusively only is decided by a setting on TFS itself, not in AX. I wouldn't recommend to to enforce exclusive checkouts because you'd get in trouble with the label files. It's better to allow multiple checkouts and do merges if necessary. I think that is what Microsoft recommends, too.
