Knowledge: What is the use of FormRef property of a table? 1) As the name suggest FormRef; that actually means reference to a form. 2) FormRef property on the table to determine which form should be opened (a menu item can be specified there pointing the required form). 3) The interesting fact is that even if FormRef is not specified on the table AX will still try to open some form. Actually AX will look for display menu item which has the name equals to the table name. 4) Frustrating part is that if such menu item does not exist the warning will be shown when user click on view details. Note : Warning will be like that: “No object specified on menu item table_name”.
