Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step is the prescribed methodology for deploying Microsoft Dynamics AX. The Sure Step application provides product-specific and general project-based templates, workflows, process maps and tools to assist the implementation partners. Sure Step is currently available as an online tool or for download from PartnerSource.

The Sure Step methodology is divided into the following phases:
