2. Expand
Group Policy: Management > Forest: Contoso.com >Domains > Contoso.com.

3. Right click
Contoso.com, and select Create a GPO in this domainand Link it here.



4. In the Name field, type "Dynamics AX Logon Script", then click OK.

5. Right-click "Dynamics AX Logon Script", then click
Edit.

6. Expand
User Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings >Scripts (Logon/Logoff).

7. In the right pane right click
Logon, and then click Properties.

8. Click
Show Files. This will bring up a file dialog in a logon folder.

9. Right-click the
folder and then click New > Text Document to create a new text document in this directory.

10. Double-click the new file to open it in Notepad.


11. Enter the following script and save the file: D:\Setup.exe HideUI=1
AcceptLicenseTerms=1 InstallClientUI=1
ClientAosServer=Company1 ClientLanguage=en-US
ClientHelpLanguages=en-US


NOTE: The directory path for Setup.exe should be a network path. 

12. Right-click and rename "New Text Document.txt" to "AxInstallClient.cmd", then confirm the change of the file name extension when you are prompted.

13. Close the Windows Explorer menu.


14. Click
Add, then click Browse.

Open.

16. Click
OK.

17. Notice that the script has been added to logon properties, and then click

18. Close

NOTE: This setup can be proven by uninstalling the client, look to verify that the
client has been removed, logoff the Virtual Machine (VM), logon to the VM, and
verify that the client has been reinstalled. It might take several minutes after the
logging on for the Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 to apply.


NOTE: Scripts can also be set to run on the startup and shutdown of a server.
