  • The random events

    Some years ago I was dealing with an issue that was driving me crazy and it took many hours to figure out what was wrong with the code.

    Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 SP1 introduces a new way to handle SIFT. Instead of maintaining totals in separate tables, Dynamics NAV 5.0 SP1 uses a SQL feature called indexed views. Indexed views will automatically be maintained by the SQL Server. With SQL Server 2000, updating an indexed view can be a time consuming process as the SQL Server 2000 might decide to include a clustered index scan as part of its query plan to update the view.
