Hello:
We have three instances of Dynamics AX 2012 R2 CU6: Production, Development and Sandbox. Sometimes the roles, duties and privileges get modified in Production (emergencies) but not in Development. This leads to issues if we try to modify Development and roll it into production if the starting points for both are not the same.
Is there a way that I can create an exact copy of a role from Prod and put it into development, make the changes in Dev, and then roll it back to Prod? We currently export packages of roles. But here's the issue? Let's say that we had to modify the "Accounts Payable" role in production by adding a Duty and removing a permission. This leads to two questions:
(1) If I just package up the Production "Accounts Payable" role, will my changes to the Duty and privilege also be bundled into that package, or do I have to export the duty and privilege also as part of that package.
(2) When the production package is applied to Development, will it make an exact copy, including any deletes?
If you could point me to a technical resource on how this works, that would be a bonus.
Thanks,
Rich Locus
