Data Import Export Framework - Problems with shared working directory

Recently I had issues with access validation of the shared working directory for the data import export framework (alias data migration framework).

If the validation is telling you that the service is not able to access the directory you should check on the SQL Server

• if the data import export service is running
• which account is used to run the service
• is this account able to write into that shared dirctory

If the service is not running AX is alsojust telling you that the service account is not able to access the folder. even though the user has the right credentials.
