How I fooled myself for 5 years…

I’m working quite a long time at a customer now. In August 2013, I was (re)hired to help on a migration from Dynamics AX4 to Dynamics AX 2012. As I had worked at this customer before, I know about some issues related to performance of the ledger balances. Now in AX2012 the update of balances were different. During posting of accounting entries, records in a table called “Dimension set unprocessed transactions” are inserted. A batch job will take care of updating the balances. Now how did I fool myself?

NewYear = 2016 + 1; Info(“Happy new year!”);

On the last day of the year 2016 I was looking back at the past year.  It has been an extremely busy year. Business wise I was mainly working for two customer projects, managed to get our Data Validation Framework ISV solution into “AX7” and did some smaller tasks in between. In private I coached 2 baseball teams of my sons. In addition, I did contribute quite a lot on answering questions on forums and writing some blogs. Together this felt like having work weeks of 60-70 hours. It was the year where I reached 20 years of work experience (all in ICT). In this blog, I will quickly look back at the 20 years and also look back at the year 2016. Read more
