AutoSummary field group

The AutoSummary field group is automatically created for each table in Dynamics Ax 2012, and therefore exists on all existing and new tables.

Introduction
This group is used to help define which fields appear in the Summary fields section of a fast tab in Dynamics Ax 2012.

Fast tab summary fields
Although the exact algorithm for determining which fields appear as Summary fields on a fast tab is complex, one of the constraints is that controls bound to non foreign-key fields, which have the FastTabSummary property set to Auto, must appear in the AutoSummary field of the underlying table before they will be considered for inclusion in the summary fields.

For more information on which fields are selected to appear as Summary fields of a fast tab, see the section on fast tabs.
