A classic problem with ERP-systems running in multinational enterprises is the formatting of amount fields in a report. One aspect of this is that the different currencies in which the different national companies of an enterprise operates can vary a lot with regards to number of digits in the amount. E.g. the exchange rate between a danish kroner and an indonesian rupiah is (at time of writing): 1 DKK - 1524,75 IDR. This would for an amount of 1 million danish kroner yield an converted amount of 1,524,750,000.75 IDR. An amount of the size can result in the Dynamics AX core returning Today I was asked by a customer, to come up with a prototype for user enabling the setting of widths of fields on a report The class that formats Real fields can be found here: http://www.fasor.dk/blogspotattachments/Class_ReportFieldControlFormatter.xpo
My thoughts on Dynamics AX application development. I have been working as a consultant with Microsoft ERP-technology since 1994. Currently I work at Optimate A/S. My main focus is customization and application development. This blog is merely my place to put stuff that I want to remember. If anybody can benefit from reading this, that's great :0). Feel free to use any code snippets posted - but accept that you do this at your own risk!!!
