We have been struggling with random client crashes in our AX2012 r2 deployment. Our partner suggested we apply CU6, which we did and still have the random crashing. We are accessing AX via W2008r2 RDS.
Perhaps someone else has had the same challenges and could lend a hand?
Here are the details :
· The condition is that the client will hang, and may show the ‘Processing’ message, and then will crash.
· Problem seems to be centered around a few different forms such as the purchtable form.
For example using the purchtable form, the condition is when the user selects a purchase order and then clicks Line Details – the system hangs and eventually issues ‘stopped working’ message :
· This hang and subsequent client crash also occurs after the line details opens and the user makes changes or navigates through the tabs of the line details.
· This hang occurs on different purchase orders and not always with the same purchase order. So does not seem to be data related.
The problem from the Purchtable form is intermittent; although a similar crash is easy to recreate from the Signing Limits Policy Form :
In <company>, go to Organization >Setup >Signing limits >Signing limit policies
Highlight the <“Goods & Services”> policy and click “Edit” on the ribbon
Expand the “Policy rules” fast-tab, highlight the current effective policy (dated as of 4/24/2013) and double-click to open it
Maximize the window that pops up (for the default signing limit rules policy)
This displays the active approval limit policies for regular PR’s and supply chain PR’s. If you wait about 10 seconds, the application will crash.
Someone references a possible fix in the below link, but I cannot find the KB:

When the above mentioned hang and crash occurs with the Signing limit policy form (in TEST), the following messages are being logged in the windows application log of the rdp/aos server from where the client is running:
