Conventions

ERP implementations are complex by nature due to so many moving parts, and leaders are expected to know all the aspects. This book provides a summary of numerous aspects that you need to know (without going through expensive learnings) to make your Dynamics AX implementation(s) successful. We will be jumping into management, functional/business, technical—code examples, infrastructure aspects and that is by design.

In this book, you will find a number of text styles that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "For example, a new class created by the vendor ABC for the sales order import process should be named as AbcSalesOrderImport."

A block of code is set as follows:

  while select * from custTmpLedger
  {
    Info(custTmpLedger.Name);
  }
}

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, for example, in menus or dialog boxes, appear in the text like this: "The following screenshot displays Customer transactions grouped by customers."
