I am researching ways to integrate 4D with Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. I feel pretty sure what I need to do can be (or should be) easily accomplished using 4D ODBC and SQL. But I've not done an integration with AX before so you never know, right? Looking for a sanity check.
A key concept in this project will be exchanging data with something AX people call "data cubes" or just "the cube" which is apparently an intermediate summary MS Sql DB/or data warehouse feature of Dynamics AX. As I understand, "the cube" is a periodically synchronized copy of certain kinds of AX data configured in a way that is simpler and more accessible than how it is stored in the production SQL server database. This is apparently part of the API that Microsoft Dynamics AX provides to third party apps for report generation and data extraction for BI functions, etc. If this concept sounds familiar to any of you would you please let me know? Any comments, encouraging, DIScouraging, etc are welcomed. Even better, can anyone confirm for me that 4D has been successfully integrated with AX in this way?
