Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Operations - Number sequence

Number sequence framework in there for a while with the release of AX 2012 however, with the arrival of D365 we need to make a small addition on top of what we have been doing in AX 2012.

Following my previous, post How to generate number sequence for new module in AX 2012 all steps remain same as summarizing below to generate number sequence for the newly developed module. 

1. Create a new class similar to NumberSeqModuleCust but suffix it with your module name e.g. NumberSeqModuleMyModule extended from NumberSeqApplicationModule

2. Added loadModule() method

3. Add numberSeqModule() method with your new added enum value (for your module) in NumberSeqModule_extension (You should create an extension of NumberSeqModule base enum and not customizing it and add new element for your module into that extension)

4. This is an additional step for D365 you would need to perform otherwise it will claim "The value does not exist in the map".

Create a new delegate method to class NumberSeqGlobal which will append the current class to the map that links modules to number sequence data type generators.






[SubscribesTo(classstr(NumberSeqGlobal),delegatestr(NumberSeqGlobal,buildModulesMapDelegate))]  
   static void buildModulesMapSubsciber(Map numberSeqModuleNamesMap)  
   {  
     NumberSeqGlobal::addModuleToMap(classnum(NumberSeqModuleMyModule), numberSeqModuleNamesMap);  
   }  

5. Continue with executing the job to loadAll numberSequences and Generate it from Organization module as mentioned in previous post

D365FO: Entity cannot be deleted while dependent Entities for a processing group exist. Delete dependent Entities for a processing group and try again.

Scenario: There are times when you want to delete an entity from target entity list and when you do so, you face an error message which does not tell you where exactly the entity has been used.  "Entity cannot be deleted while dependent Entities for the processing group exist. Delete dependent Entities for a processing group and try again. " Solution: Browse the environment by appending this part  /?mi=SysTableBrowser&TableName=DMFDefinitionGroupEntity&cmp=USMF   at the end.  For example; if the environment URL is  https://daxture.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com then the complete URL will be https://daxture.sandbox.operations.dynamics.com/?mi=SysTableBrowser&TableName=DMFDefinitionGroupEntity&cmp=USMF Filter for Entity and it will give you the DefinitionGroup where the entity has been added or used in data management import/export projects. Get the DefinitionGroup name and search in the export/import projects under data management and either del...
