How Do I Count the Number of Pages and Documents in an AppXtender Application?

The following queries need to be executed on the production AppXtender(AX) SQL Server and it is strongly recommended to make sure you have a database backup before performing any database activities are performed. Also, as we are going to run SQL Count commands, consider the production system impact and perhaps run them outside of business hours.

The AX App Table Structures
All AX apps have an appid which is referenced throughout the database. All the appid is stored in the ae_apps table. The following screenshot is what the AX Demo database looks like:



The above table shows the relationship between the appid and the dtname (the document related information) and the dlname (the document page related information).

Therefore to count number of documents and pages you would use the following queries:
