Unlock Your Dynamics AX 2012 Data with Modern OData v4 APIs
Bridge the gap between proven ERP reliability and modern cloud innovation — replacing heavy WCF/AIF SOAP services and connecting Dynamics AX 2012 (R1, R2 & R3) straight to Dynamics 365 CRM, Slimstock Slim4, B2B e-commerce, and Power Platform with full X++ integrity.
Your Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 environment runs complex global operations, rich inventory and warehouse management, and multi-company financial governance. Yet connecting it to modern cloud applications via legacy WCF/AIF SOAP services or raw SQL queries across dozens of split database tables is slow, fragile, and expensive for your teams to maintain.
DEAX2012 brings configurable Data Entities and secure, standards-compliant OData v4 REST APIs directly to your existing AX 2012 environment — automatically flattening internal record IDs and financial dimensions while delivering live data in seconds without requiring a premature ERP migration.
Why Businesses Choose DEAX2012
Elevate AX 2012, Keep Value
Connect your existing AX 2012 system reliably and fast to modern CRM, purchase planning, e-commerce, and financial platforms — while keeping 100% of the proven business logic, trade agreements, and financial dimension rules built into your core ERP.
Real-Time Speed & Sequence
Eliminate WCF timeouts and overnight file import delays. Customer orders arrive in seconds and are served strictly in sequence so the first order always gets served first. Sales reps never wait for live customer balance info, and planners work with real-time stock.
Scalable & Industry-Standard
Replace rigid SOAP/WCF ports with enterprise-grade REST APIs. Every integration built with DEAX2012 is scalable under peak load, reusable across cloud apps, secure (Microsoft Entra ID / OAuth 2.0), and based on industry-standard OData v4.
What DEAX2012 Enables for Your Business
Instant Ecosystem Connectivity
Connect AX 2012 out of the box with Microsoft Power Platform (Power BI, Power Automate, Power Apps), Dynamics 365, Slimstock Slim4, Azure, Salesforce, Shopify, Magento, 3PL warehouses, Boomi, and MuleSoft via standard OData v4 REST APIs.
Sub-Second Non-Blocking Reads
Retrieve live ERP records in milliseconds without WCF SOAP overhead or locking database tables — automatically translating AX 2012's internal record IDs and financial dimensions into clean, readable business fields.
Rock-Solid X++ Data Integrity
Our staging-based write pipeline runs AX 2012's genuine business logic, trade agreement pricing, and posting rules inside a supervised 64-bit worker pool — ensuring external applications never bypass your ERP controls.
Lightweight Delta & Change Sync
Connected applications can request only newly created or modified records instead of pulling full table dumps, drastically cutting network traffic, database load, and synchronization times.
Multi-Company & Role Security
Built-in legal entity (`dataAreaId`) and partition support works hand-in-hand with granular user-level permissions, restricting every connected app and user to only the companies and data entities they are authorized to access.
In-ERP Integration Dashboard
Give your operations and finance teams a clear visual dashboard right inside AX 2012 to view incoming information, staged data, and human-readable validation messages side-by-side without calling IT.
Configurable & Metadata-Driven: Built for Your Customizations
Unlike rigid AIF document services that require custom X++ classes and long CIL compile cycles, DEAX2012 is 100% metadata-driven.
Configure Without Custom Code
Define new data entities, calculated fields, and multi-table joins through clean configuration inside AX 2012 rather than writing and maintaining custom AIF document classes from scratch.
Expose Custom Tables Fast
Easily include your custom AX 2012 tables, industry-specific add-ons, and bespoke fields. Once you map the fields, DEAX2012 automatically generates the OData v4 schema, queries, and write pipeline for you.
Zero-Downtime Maintenance
Adjust field mappings, financial dimension rules, and security permissions on the fly — with zero CIL compilation downtime and no AOS server restarts.
Ready on Day One: Out-of-the-Box Business Entities
