DMF - customization

Hi,

I’m new to DMF. I learnt to do simple import from CSV file.

Have doubt like where should I need to write business logic.

Example:

target table is MyItemTable, it has 3 fields called itemid, item name and cost

My data in csv file is ‘1’, ‘Bottle’, 200

When It is processing , i want to multiply the COST field * 2 so i want 400 needs to be inserted in to my target table.

how to do that? If any one knows please help me to resolve it.

Hi,

If you know the value for the cost field then you can change it accordingly before importing, if you dont then you can write job for updating the records in one shot.

I think there is a way to change the standard class but it may create some problem as the logic is build commonly.

May not be much help (I’m very new to AX), but …

AX 2012 R2 CU7 will move the DIEF into AX itself. In the CU7 version of DIEF, there will be a custom entity wizard. I don’t know much about it, but maybe it would help you … if you can wait, and are on a version of AX where this will apply (note that the updates to DIEF are supposed to be available for CU6 too … or something like that).
