Is there a way to find what users are doing in AX before restarting AOS just to make sure?

Thanks in advance.

    Go to System Administration>Common>On Line Users you will see all ax users on line.

    Thank you for your answer. I would like to know if AX has capability to show more detailed information such as which screens/menus users are currently using and whether users are running something like posting, etc.

    Nope, AX 2020 maybe. You will only have the capability to have some historic audit trail report to show access trails by users.

    If you use AX2012, look at Client Access Log. You could implement something similar in older versions too, if you really want.

    Check activity monitor in SQL server management studio. It does not give the details you asked for but you can see if there is any activity on the ax database. Check process details for used tables, their names can give you a clue which ax processes are running. Also consider using following query to see which queries are running at the moment:

    SELECT

    req.session_id,

    sqltext.TEXT,

    db.name as "database",

    req.status,

    req.command,

    req.cpu_time,

    req.total_elapsed_time

    FROM sys.dm_exec_requests req

    CROSS APPLY sys.dm_exec_sql_text(sql_handle) AS sqltext

    join sys.databases db on req.database_id = db.database_id

    regards,

    Peter
