Dict types usage in AX

Dict types are used to manage EDT’S. They are used to fetch the properties of an EDT.

Below code helps You in finding out the label name of an EDT used to generate a Number sequence ‘Inve_77′.

static void Dicttypes(Args _args)

{

                dicttype dictype;

                NumberSequenceReference NumberSequenceReference;

                ;

                select firstonly NumberSequenceReference

                where NumberSequenceReference.NumberSequence == ‘Inve_77′;

                if (NumberSequenceReference)

                {

                                dictype = new dicttype(NumberSequenceReference.DataTypeId);

                }

                info(dictype.label());

}
