It doesn't necessarily have to be automated, although I do believe that doing it manually is a waste of time. Don't forget that models have version numbers - it's enough for tracking what you've deployed where. As we're talking about TFS, it makes good sense to use TF Build rather than some other build server. You can use either XAML-based builds ( check details here ) or the new build framework . In the latter case, consider using using Powershell tasks based on Dynamics AX Build Scripts or Dynamics AX Admin Utilities . I currently use XAML-based builds, but they're going to be deprecated, therefore I'm not going to use them in future.
