Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

Queries enable you to ask questions about the data in the Microsoft Dynamics AX database and retrieve information. There are two ways to create queries:

  • Use the Queries node in the Application Object Tree (AOT) to create static queries using a graphical interface. For more information about creating queries in the AOT, see How to: Create Queries by using the AOT.

  • Use the query system classes to create dynamic queries in code. For more information about creating queries in code, see How to: Create Queries by Using X++.
