Export Form

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

The Export form enables you to export selected application objects from the Application Object Tree (AOT) or to export objects from a selected layer. To export all objects from a layer, make sure that the root node is selected when you click Export.

The Export form can be opened from the shortcut menu or from the Command menu, when one or more nodes are selected in the AOT.

Note

You can select more than one object for exporting, but the file name displays only the name of the top selected node. All other nodes selected for export will be included within this node.
