When you set up a recurring export to a file
in DIXF, the file name is always the same. A
unique file name is required for subsequent
export files.
KB 4032447
A setting is added to the DIXF service to
enable generation of an XSD file where
optional fields can be missing from the XML
file.
Note that DIXF doesn’t support the import
of XML files that have missing elements,
even if a field is optional.
KB 4032504
What’s new in CU 13 for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3
Description of enhancement
The changes in the hotfix introduce a new method in the
DMFExportEntityDetails table to generate the new file path. This
method is named replaceFilePathPlaceholders, and you can extend
it by using pre-method event handlers. Therefore, overlayering isn’t
required. You can then add new placeholders as you require. By
default, the following placeholders are supported:
● <guid> – This placeholder is replaced by a new globally unique
identifier (GUID).
● <RecId> – This placeholder is replaced by the export record’s
RecId value.
● <localdate> – This placeholder is replaced by the date in the
current Microsoft Windows time zone. The default format is
yyyy-MM-dd.
● <localdatetime> – This placeholder is replaced by the date and
time in the current Windows time zone. The default format is
yyyy-MM-dd_HH.mm.ss.ff.
● <localtime> – This placeholder is replaced by the time in the
current Windows time zone. The default format is HH.mm.ss.ff.
● <utcdate> – This placeholder is replaced by the date in
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The default format is
yyyy-MM-dd.
● <utcdatetime> – This placeholder is replaced by the date and
time in UTC. The default format is yyyy-MM-dd_HH.mm.ss.ff.
● <utctime> – This placeholder is replaced by the time in UTC. The
default format is HH.mm.ss.ff.
The changes in the hotfix add a new
AllowMissingElementsInXsdForOptionalFields configuration
option in the DIXF service’s DMFConfig.xml file. If this option is set to
True, elements for optional fields in the XSD file will be set to
minOccurs=‘0’ and maxOccurs=‘1’. Therefore, the elements don’t
have to exist in the XML file.
This behavior applies only to the XSD file. DIXF still won’t accept XML
files that have missing elements. You can use this XSD file to validate
an XML file before you include the missing elements.

DMFConfig.xml file:
● UseMigrateLock:
● True – Limit both imports and exports to one operation at a
time by locking on an object in the DIXF service. This lock
applies only to Excel files. The lock is ignored for all other data
types.
● False – No locking occurs. This behavior is the default
behavior.
● UseIsolationLevel:
● Process – Most issues that we have with Excel and Microsoft
SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) appear to corrupt
memory in the current process, such as the DIXF service. This
option starts a new process for each import or export
operation for an Excel file. This option should prevent in-
process memory corruption.
● AppDomain – Use a new AppDomain instead of a new
process. This option should provide better performance.
However, its performance compared to process-level isolation
is uncertain.
● None – Do everything in the DIXF service process. This
behavior is the default behavior.
The changes in this hotfix include support for SQL Master Data
Services 2016.

Microsoft has been developing the Z3 solver since 2008. The Z3
solver has now reached a level of maturity where it can match and, in
some cases, outperform the Microsoft Solver Foundation (MSF)

Furthermore, the Z3 solver is an open source project that has an
active community that is continuously evolving. Therefore, for
product configuration in AX 2012, you have an opportunity to take
advantage of the Z3 solver to provide better performance and, in the
future, new solving capabilities for product configuration.

● The existing Auto insert flex-/absence field has been split
into two fields. The existing field was renamed Auto insert
flex. When it’s selected, it shows the absence code that the
Absence Group the Reduce flex property were selected for.
● A new field, Auto insert absence, has been added. The drop-
down list for this field includes the selection Absence code,
for which the Absence Group property, Reduce flex, isn’t
selected.
● In the Absence group form, the control removes the ability to
change the Reduce flex property if the related absence code is
set in the Auto insert flex or Auto insert absence fields.
● In the Approve/Calculate form, when a worker’s time is
calculated in the Calculate or approve form, the system should
insert the absence code that was set up in either the Auto insert
flex- field or the Auto insert absence field. If the Flex allowed
option is set for the worker, the absence code in the Auto insert
flex- field should be used. If Flex allowed isn’t set for the worker,
the absence code in the Auto insert absence field should be

The packing station experience has been improved to help guarantee

improved:
● The setup experience is better aligned with the rest of Warehouse
management.
● The packing station is now seen as a location. When warehouse
workers sign in at a packing station, they will see and work on
only shipments and containers that are present at that specific
packing location.
● Work can now be generated to bring goods from the packing
station to the staging and bay door locations.
● The concept of container groups has been introduced to enable
multiple containers to be moved out of the packing station in one
operation.
● A new packing policy has been introduced to give warehouse
managers more flexibility about how containers should be
handled in the packing process.
● The concept of manual manifesting has been introduced to
enable a loosely coupled integration with external transportation
provider systems.
● The user experience for packing and container processing has
been improved.
This fix implemented an enhancement that was added to a more
recent version of the product.
Purchase orders in an inbound process can now be updated from
