Create new config file for specific layer in AX 2012



Today I will be discussing how to create a new config file for a specific layer in AX.

The following steps are required for the creation of new config file.



Step 1) Search Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Configuration in windows and run it as administrator. It will open Microsoft Dynamics Configuration Utility.



Step 2) Right-click on the Manage button and select create configuration option.











Step 3) Now enter your config name here and click on the ok button. Your new config file will be created.

















Step 4) Go to the connection tab.


  • Select the add button if no aos server name is given and provide all details.
  • If you want to verify  AOS server name information then go to the edit button and click it.





















Step 5) Go to the Developer  tab. Here you will be able to select your layer. In my case its var layer.


















Step 6) Go to the connection tab and click on the refresh button in order to update the configuration.


Step 7) Click on the Manager and select the export configuration file option. You will be able to save your config file on the desired path. Now you can use your newly created config file.
















Thank you,
