Dynamics AX (Ax7) Layout

Here is how it looks with RTW (Release to Web) for Dynamics AX

Search

Tiles

The tiles are the main component of the office themed layout where you can put the links to your own workspace and also filter the tiles based on the role assigned to user.

Collapsible Menu

The collapsible menu lists all the Modules, Workspaces and recent browsed pages for quick access. The menu can also be pinned down to make it stick.

The Layout as a Whole

Hope this gives some technical resources more appetite to look at this new amazing Microsoft’s AX release.

Enjoy !!!
