Is there a way to add a menu entry to each system menu in the system?

The system menu is described here.

Rationale: provide easy access to recurring logic.

Out-of-the box using regular Dynamics AX development techniques, I don't think it is possible. I also think you shouldn't, it certainly is not best practice.

Consider:

  • Using favorites
  • Overwriting the task method on a form to capture shortcuts (you could create hotkeys for your functions or launch a form with functions to perform)
  • Add a toolbar to your forms, similar to what workflow does, see SysSetupFormRun.init where workflow controls are added to forms.
