Creating a development folder

When developing your integration, consider creating a separate “development” folder. To this folder you will add a copy of the Dynamics dictionary, which will become your development dictionary. Using a separate development folder has the following benefits:

• It keeps the core dictionary for the Microsoft Dynamics GP installation in its original state, which is important for testing your integration in a runtime setting.
• The additional files generated, such as Resource Explorer temporary files and reference information files won’t clutter the application installation folder.
• The path for accessing the development folder can be much simpler. For example, C:\Develop.
• Build operations, such as creating a dictionary chunk for your integration, can be performed in the development folder.
• It’s easier to make backups of your work.
