Set up integration with Microsoft Office Add-ins [AX 2012]
Microsoft Dynamics AX can be integrated with Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. If your organization uses the Office Add-ins for Microsoft Dynamics AX, users can create Word documents and Excel workbooks that are linked dynamically to the tables in Microsoft Dynamics AX. Integration for the Office Add-ins must be set up before users can use the Office Add-ins to create files.
Use the following procedure to configure data sources for the Office Add-ins.

1. Click Organization administration > Setup > Document management > Document data sources.
2. In the Document data sources form, click New.
3. In the Module field, select the Microsoft Dynamics AX module from which a user can open and create files. For example, select Sales and marketing to enter the settings for a sales quotation.
4. In the Data source type field, select one of the following options:
* If the user wants to create files that other users can modify, select Service.
* If the user wants to create files that only the user can modify, select Query.
5. In the Data source name field, select the applicable data source.
6. Select the Activated check box.
