==============

Consider a scenario where you are using IDMF 2.0, and you want to work with InventTrans and LedgerTrans data, but you cannot find any archive templates for these tables? It is possible to archive InventTrans and LedgerTrans, but the 'ByFiscalPeriod' template is not enabled by default, and this blog post will show you how to enable it. In the example below, I am working with IDMF 2.0 running on AX 2009, but the AX version I am using is not really relevant.

1. Documentation links

As mentioned in my previous IDMF blog post, the main online documentation can be found here:

2. Enabling the 'ByFiscalPeriod' template

As mentioned above, you have to actively turn this functionality ON yourself. Until you've done this, you won't see the 'ByFiscalPeriod' template in the list of Archive templates:



You must fully understand the possible consequences of using it before doing so (see the Warning text below, which you can find in the .config file you need to edit):

---------------------------------------------------

ShowByFiscalTemplate



1) Go to the IDMF install location:

%systemdrive%\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX Intelligent Data Management Framework\AXDataManagementTool.exe.config

e.g.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX Intelligent Data Management Framework\AXDataManagementTool.exe.config



2) Open the file in a text editor (e.g. Notepad) and search the file for "ShowByFiscalTemplate"



3) Change the value of "ShowByFiscalTemplate" to "true" (the default is "false") and save the file



4) Restart the IDMF console and the 'ByFiscalPeriod' template should appear under Configure / Archive templates

---------------------------------------------------

Once you’ve done that, you will see the template in the IDMF console:



You will see a tab for LedgerTrans and one for InventTrans once you’ve selected the ByFiscalPeriod template under Configure / Archive templates:

// LedgerTrans



// InventTrans
