Hi all,
I am having problems moving base data from a TEST environment to a PROD environment using standard definitiongroups(.dat+.def). I am talking from one company in TEST to one company in PROD.
I have been using this great functionallity since Axapa 3 and it has been working really good.
The problem i have is when I use defninition groups in AX 2012. I have tried a lot of differnt setups when exporting them and importing them. But i have still not found a way to get the data correct in the PROD system. I know that there has been a lot of changes in tha database structure but still...shouldnt it work?
I have heard from collegues that there might be issues with definitions groups in AX 2012 Feature Pack that I am currently working with and that it might be fixed in AX 2012 R2.
To be able to go live in a small installationin a few days i think my choce will be to do a backup/restore of the database from TEST to PROD and the use transaction delete class (slightly modified for AX 2012). I think this might work since its a very small customer not using that many modules.
What is your experience? What other ways do you use to get data from TEST/STAGING to PROD?
Regards
Joakim
