In my blog last week I documented the fact that Microsoft is Killing Navision. That has led to a lot of comments, both here and in many other blogs and on LinkedIn. But I think that many people didn't read all of my blog post, as many thought that I said that they where killing Navision because it...

When implementing NAV in manufacturing companies, I’ve sometimes heard complaints that the type of manufacturing supported in NAV doesn’t fit the customer needs.

A short while ago I informed you about an important hotfix for Navision 4.0 SP3 and 5.0 SP1. At one of my larger customers in Germany we implemented this build. It is really working great and solves a lot of problems caused by the Dynamics cursors introduced in build 26410. However we have managed to...

This tip is about the SQL Server Management studio again. Many Dynamics Nav customers and consultants are very new to SQL and the programming language T-SQL. The SQL Server has solved that with introducting tons of wizards for common tasks like backing up databases and creating users. Let's look...

If you like me thought that a career working with Navision, or Dynamics NAV as Microsoft likes to call our system, would be a career for life then I think you need to start and rethink that option. Microsoft is slowly but surely killing Navision without replacing it with Dynamics NAV! Take a look at...

Are you planning to invest in Microsoft Dynamics NAV or did you already invest in Navision? Do you want to know what Microsoft is planning do with Dynamics NAV until 2017? As Waldo wrote in his recent blog post then Microsoft has just released their new statement of directions for Dynamics NAV. The statement...

During the MiBuSo conference 2009 in Mechelen we had one presentation, where all attendees could see the future of NAV development environment, which will replace the C/Side from classic client. For others, which are not there, I have some pictures I made with my mobile (sorry for the poor quality)....

Yesterday, I attended the first Mibuso conference. I say "first", because I hope there will be many to follow. I was quite surprised how one man could organize such an event by his own… . Which man: this one. Luc Van Dyck: Sorry, Luc, for the bad picture. Blame my iPhone ;°). Now...

The new Statement Of Direction has appeared, and what a show! There is a roadmap until 2017 with features, goals and new stuff that will be added in the next 4 (four, vier, quattre, …) releases… . Well, Microsoft, pardon me to be a little bit sarcastic about this … but being able...

Often you don’t even notice how quickly time goes by, except for a few milestones, which happen once a year and remind you that another one’s over.
WinDays conference is one of such milestones, and I’ve barely published a handful of posts here since the last time it was the most discussed topic in Croatian...
