Looking for a D365 F&O development tutorial

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 20

Hello,

I'm new to developing in D365 but not new to developing in DAX & X++, I've been a developer on AX2009 for many years. I'm looking for a tutorial to guide me through the process of making a change and walking it through to a stage/test environment where a user would UAT it. I currently have a DEV environment, can RDP on the VM, run VS 2015 and see all the objects in the AOT, but now what? I'd like to start with something simple like moving a field on the CustTable form and seeing it in stage with the test data we currently have. Is there such a tutorial and if so can someone point me to it?

I have the same question (0)

    The option is available on your project not on table.

    I didn't have the option when "right-clicking" on the tables but did from the "Dynamics 365" menu. The form is working for me correctly.

    On project right click and do Sync project . Another option is go to D365 menu in VS and Click sync database option.

    That is what one would do to correct this error in previous versions of DAX but I couldn't find an option to do the same in D365, neither on the project or the AOT. Any idea how I should do the sync?

    Sorry, I just found the menu option to sync the database. Thanks for pointing this out.

    Did you synchronize the database after adding your two fields ? if not perform that action first.

    Thanks for the reply, this link pretty much had exactly what I needed to know: dhruvrthakar.blogspot.com/.../customization-of-form-and-table-in.html

    I followed the steps having a real-life example of adding 2 fields to the CUSTTABLE table and form. I built the project and when I view the customer data from the UI I get an SQL Server error about one of the new columns I added to both objects being "Invalid column name" so it seems that the form was built but not the change to the schema. The webpage didn't mention anything special that I needed to do so I have no idea what I should do next. Anyone have any idea(s)?

    There are also courses for developers on Dynamics Learning Portal.

    Most of the documentation is is present on developers home page.  When you say you want to see that form in stage , do you want to do deployment of changes in some other environment ?

    Hi James,

    Developing new forms is different from standard forms customization.

    You can read the MS DOC to learn more about developing of D365:

    docs.microsoft.com/.../developer-home-page

    And I think the Extensibility is what you need to focus on.

    The following steps detail the process of developing different forms

    For customization of Inbuilt form and table, you can check this link.

    dhruvrthakar.blogspot.com/.../customization-of-form-and-table-in.html

    For creating new forms like list Page, simple form and table please check this link.
