Yes, with this release Microsoft® included a new module called the “Data export / import framework”. This new module comes with over 90 predefined templates from GL balances to customers and sales orders etc. The framework uses an intuitive user interface that allows users with no knowledge of the table structure and relations to import and update data from excel spreadsheets or other formats.
We recommend reviewing the following to ensure Microsoft Dynamics AX is running optimally:
There are two main factors that can drive the scope of an upgrade. The first one is the upgrade type. Is the upgrade strictly a technical upgrade, meaning that the application, customizations and data will be upgraded using the Microsoft® upgrade scripts, or will the upgrade involve a re-implementation, meaning that the system will be set up from scratch using a new installation?
The second major driver is the amount of customized code. If the application is very heavily customized, a technical upgrade may not be suitable. Of course, there are many other factors, but generally speaking, a technical upgrade with a moderate custom code will require 2 and 3 months whereas the re-implementation approach can take 9 and 12 months or more.
Any new implementations of Microsoft Dynamics® AX 2012 R2 would include at least service pack (cumulative update) 7, which was released in February 2014. Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 was released May 1, 2014. Therefore, the actual time on market between versions is less than three months. In addition, R3 should be considered an evolution of a mature product rather than a revolutionary release from Microsoft®.
This is evident in the similar kernels and technical architecture the two-version share. AX 2012 R2 also supports SQL Server 2014, which helps future-proof your installation. Avantiico can provide a full list of R3 vs. R2 advantages, which can quickly help your organization feel confident in your upgrade version choice.

Yes, Microsoft® requires that all customers be associated with a Certified Microsoft Partner at all times, even if you engage with Microsoft Consulting or Premier Support. The “Partner of Record” is your entry point to Microsoft and should provide you with advice relevant to your Microsoft solutions. Your Partner of Record is responsible for renewing your Business Ready Enhancement or Software Assurance Plan. The Microsoft Change of Reseller form must be used to designate a new partner.
