Hi,
I am using AX 2012 R2, I am looking for some help to get the Best Deployment Protocol for the below scenario. I have even mentioned other details as below:
I googled out and even went through the Deployment document provided by Microsoft. But I am still not clear on the Deployment Protocol for the changes that one would be doing from the Dev environment to the client’s UAT Environment and then finally to the client’s Production Environment. [i.e. 1. Our Dev Environment → 2. Client’s UAT environment → 3. Client’s Production environment.]
I was reading about various ways of deploying like using XPO, Models, Model stores. But our problem is that besides us one more company is providing the solution to the same client. So this might be little risky as we will not be aware of the changes that would be done by the other company.
My Question are:
- Should we do the customisations on the client’s UAT environment directly? Once verified by the QA, how should we move the customizations to the client’s production environment i.e. Using XPO or Models or Model Store ?
Note: Please provide the details too along with the method you would be suggesting as the Best Deployment Protocol so the changes done by the other solution provider are not affected by our deployment protocol.
- Should we do the customisations on out Dev environment [ Our system will NOT be same as the client’s UAT system].
Once verified by the QA, how should we move the customizations to the client’s UAT environment and then to Client’s Production Environment i.e. Using XPO or Models or Model Store ?
Note: Please provide the details too along with the method you would be suggesting as the Best Deployment Protocol so the changes done by the other solution provider are not affected by our deployment protocol.
I would appreciate for your sincere help ASAP.
Thanks & Regards,
