Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 – Shortcuts

By Eric Meissner | June 10, 2015

This post is meant especially for new users of Microsoft Dynamics AX. I think it is important to be aware of different shortcuts that are available to help your speed and ease of navigation in AX. Below is the start of a list that I have been exposed to. Finding and using these shortcuts can make save time and make your work day a little easier. My hope is that others can add to the comments in the source blogs to help make people aware of others. Then, people could create a list of shortcuts that are most relevant to them, print, and hang up for reference. As an AX developer I've included below a select few from the larger list that have been most useful to me. Each user might want to create their own list of favorites to more quickly reference the short cuts you use most often.

The comprehensive list is posted on TechNet at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa571220.aspx for Application Workspace and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa623612.aspx for Development Workspace.
