What’s new in cumulative update 7 for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2

What’s new	Description
Regulatory features for France	The primary address of the organization no longer has to be in France if you want to use the French public sector accounting rules. Instead, you must select the Use French public sector accounting rules check box in the Budget parameters form. Organizations that don’t use French public sector accounting rules should disable the French regulatory license configuration key (under the Public Sector license configuration key). By disabling this license configuration key, you remove any unusable menu items when the Use French public sector accounting rules check box is cleared. In versions of Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 before cumulative update 7, only the Public Sector configuration key must be selected. However, the primary address of the legal entity must be in France.
Dispose of fixed assets	You can now dispose of more than one fixed asset at the same time. This feature saves time and reduces the risk of errors. For more information, see Likwidacja środka trwałego — informacje.
