You can import a class, and execute methods within it without user interaction by starting Microsoft Dynamics AX from the command line with an XML file as input parameter. The XML file specifies the class and methods to use. The result of importing and executing is written to a log file or shown to the user in Infolog.

Executing with no user interaction is useful for any automation of customer tasks, in particular during the test phase.

Create an XML file

  1. On the Microsoft Dynamics AX client computer, create an XML file.

  2. Add tags to the XML file specifying:

    • The Microsoft Dynamics AX version.

    • The name and location of the log file.

    • The XPO file that contains the class to import.

    • The method to run.

      Note

      The XML file syntax is described in the documentation for the SysAutoRun Class.

  3. Open a command line window and type

    ax32.exe -StartupCmd=AutoRun_ c:\folder\filename .XML

Sample XML file

The following example shows an XML file that can be used to import data silently.

<AxaptaAutoRun version="6.0" logFile="AXAutoCreateClass.log">
  <XpoImport file="d:\share\CreateClass.xpo" />
  <Run type="class" name="CreateClass" method="main" />
</AxaptaAutoRun>
