Upgrade procedure to Dynamics NAV 2009 is not very different from upgrade procedures we had in previous versions, but some differences do apply, depending on what we want to achieve with the upgrade. First scenario is executables only upgrade, which is the same as traditional executables upgrade in NAV...

The discussion of the changes starting with Microsoft Dynamics NAV version 5 regarding the use of Dynamic cursors has already been addressed in the article titled "Cursor Types" on the SE Blog - http://blogs.msdn.com/microsoft_dynamics_nav_sustained_engineering/ However, we are seeing more...

Some partners use the Merge tool in the NAV Developer Toolkit to attempt to merge the FULL set of objects from the old and new versions. This is not necessary and often will cause more problems than it is worth. For the purpose of discussion, let's say that you are upgrading a database from version...

I know it's a little late to write my last post from Convergence 2008 EMEA in Copenhagen, but I have been thinking a lot about what I should write. So this post is not really about Convergence, just inspired by the last day. Of cause with the announcement of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 most of the...

This post describes one scenario in which this error occurs. There may be others. In the late 4.0 versions of the NAV executables, all tables in NAV had a clustered index created on SQL for the primary key (Index 0).

Recently we completed a very complex upgrade from version 3.10 to 5.0. This project was done together with Liberty Grove Software in the USA. The company involved has a period where they are extremely busy. In that period the performance was terrible. It was holding up the business. We examined the database...

That's the question. It's about two years ago since I started working with Liberty Grove Software, a certified upgrade service center. I've helped them establish a european office. Since that time we've done about 12 upgrades together. Upgrades has always been a problem in the Navision...

On the one hand, NAV 5.0 SP1 has lots of improvements regarding SQL performance (Indexed Views, Buffered Inserts, etc.), on the other hand there are other issues and problems (slow FlowFields, lacking SQL 2000 capability,...

Upgrading Dynamics NAV (database upgrade) is a timely task, but the time to upgrade (transfer data) can be somewhat reduced on sql option by taking few simple steps. Due to large transaction volume and amount of indexes and sifts, transfering data (running upgrade toolkit codeunits: step 1 and 2 ) can...

This will only apply if the following is true: 1. You're upgrading from 3.x or 4.x to 5.0 2. You're using average cost 3. You have the Avg. Cost Calc type to Item&Variant&Locatoin IF you are using Average Cost and IF your Average Cost Calc. Type is Item & Location & Variant, when...

This is a very common question these days, mainly because of the "big" 5.1 release scheduled end of this year. Many of us have been looking forward to having a more fancy looking client for a long time, especialy sales people since other ERP products are starting to become mory flashy. For...
