Best Practice: Table Extension Framework (SysExtensionSerializer...)

Posted on by 2,174 Super User 2024 Season 2

In D365FO, is the Table Extension Framework (SysExtensionSerializer…) introduced in AX 2012 still recommended when adding a lot of fields to a standard table?

I see it still exists, and I have it working using only extensions and no overlayering, but is it still necessary to use this when adding say 20 fields to a standard table? If not then why?

    I think all you need to be answered is here:

    community.dynamics.com/.../691769

    but in short:

    - you can add 20 fields but it depends if it is necessary. (another table with foreign key?)

    - you can still use SysExtensionSerializer but you dont have to
