Quick tip - How to acivate demo data for Fleet Management in AX 7

Greetings!

Fleet Management is a custom module introduced in AX 7 for demo and training purpose and we have some tutorials around fleet management.

The other day I was putting up a quick demo around reservation management workspace and found the workspace empty with no data in it.

A quick way to activate Fleet Management with demo data is to go to

Fleet Management > Setup > Fleet Setup > Create sample customers, rentals and vehicles

Happy Daxing!
