In August 2006 after I just started in my job at ISS I wrote about my worries about Finding the right model for our global Microsoft Dynamics NAV solution. Since then 2.5 years has gone by, so I thought it was on time to write a little about what has happened since then. One Global Database The model...

My first full year (January-December)of writing on my blog has passed. When I saw this post on the "NAV Developer's blog", I just thought: "hey, that's a good idea to end this year of blogging. Let's make an overview of my blog as well". And here it is. I was quite surprised...

This is an important message for everyone using this hotfix. A bug was introduced causing messages and errorboxes to maintain locks. This issue was also in 3.70 and solved in build 19868 back then. I won't get emotional about this bug but dissapointed describes my feelings best. Please read this...
In 4.0 SP3 update 6, C/SIDE enables indexhinting by default. This is quite a hot topic in the community at the moment: Mibuso Sustained engineering team Blog And also some things on my blog... . Now, it is quite easy to go to the old situation , where indexhinting was not default. What do you need to...
Review: One of the discussed new features in update 6 is the fact that the new client (build 24143), is creating indexhints by default. The official hotfix article (which you can find here ) doesn't explain much: "The SQL Server Option for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0 Service Pack 3 does not provide...
The KB article has been released. You can find it here . Nice thing to know is that this hotfix accumulates all previous hotfixes . Here is a list of most important problems that are corrected: NAV crashes when emailing from contact card (office2007) Printing a large report with image in the header:...
There is still no official KB article available, but Mark Brummel and Hynek found out that indexhinting is enabled out-of-the-box. I want to refer to Mark's post on Mibuso: http://www.mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20831 . This would mean that you don't use the power of SQL Server .. it's...
This week Microsoft released update 6 for Navision 4.0 SP3. Mainly a lot of SQL fixes, or so they say. At first I thought that it was a combination of update 1, 4 & 5 but that seems not to be the case. What they seem to have done is enable indexhints out of the box. This was already possible in older...
Allthough I'm still waiting for the official announcement to know what has been changed and what has been solved, you can already submit a request to get the update. It is all about Hotfix 940718 and you can obtain it through this link: http://support.microsoft.com/contactus2/emailcontact.aspx?scid...
In my old job we were using Dynamics NAV 3.70 and the database and the user setup just worked fine. Now in my new job at ISS we are using Dynamics NAV 4.00. We started up with Service Pack 2 last year. But here came the big surprise. Every time we added a new user or changed te users permission we had...
