IMPORT A MODEL IN D365

Below are the steps to import a new model in D365 Finance and operation

1) Copy model files with .axmodel in any folder preferably in c: \Temp

Install a model in a development environment

To install a model file in a development environment, use the ModelUtil.exe tool and the -import directive.

Console

ModelUtil.exe -import -metadatastorepath=[path of the metadata store where model should be imported] -file=[full path of the file to import]

If the model already exists in your development environment, you must first delete it by using the -delete directive.

Console

ModelUtil.exe -delete -metadatastorepath=[path of the metadata store] -modelname=[name of the model to delete]

Sample Example : Model name is Vikas

ModelUtil.exe -import -metadatastorepath=K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory -modelname="Vikas" -file=c:\temp\Vikas.axmodel

Note : in this case the path is K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory

and the model name is : Vikas

and the path from which it will import the model file is "c:\temp\Vikas.axmodel".

So you will have to first save the model file @c:\temp\ folder....you can keep any other folder too as per your wish :)

If the model is imported successfully you can see a folder named Vikas at the below path K:\AOSService\PackagesLocalDirectory .

After the model is imported do a full build with Synchronization.

After that check for below in menus

Dynamics 365>Addins > Create project from conflicts select the model.

click ok .

In case of any issues then fix the points.
