Here is a list of knowledge base articles that were added in januari 2008 for Microsoft Dynamics NAV.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 SP1

I know there is no download on the 5.0 SP1 yet today, but the URL already exists, so you can check once in a while. This release is really going to be quite "innovative" because of the more than 300 improvements in the application and the platform. Amongst them:

  • Introduction of Bulk Inserts and SIFT with Indexed Views.
  • Dynamics Mobile will be part of 5.0 SP1.
  • Also, NAV 5.0 SP1 will be available in all localisations.

A few remarks:

  • Because of the amount of hotfixes that comes out every month, It is quite difficult to keep above table up-to-date. That's why I will try to put only the client updates (new fin(sql).exe, nas(sql).exe, ...) above with the corresponding knowledge base articles. Furthermore, I will always add the links I get to the KB articles that were added in the current month (see link above). Natalie tends to help me on this Smile.
  • I changed the numbering. A major update (like update 1, update 2, ...) is actually a platform update. Usually these are cumulative. A minor update (like update 1.1, update 6.3, ...) are just KB articles which contain a new fin.exe, but is not cumulative. Usually the platform update is still needed to install.
  • The updates in italic are the ones I added since last time.

Any comments are always appreciated Smile.

Any problems with tending to help you? ;-)

As you did not seem to know the page with the latest KB article summary yet, you perhaps don't know this one where I took it from, too:

Hot Topics Navision

mbs.microsoft.com/.../navision

The site looked different until February: there were many KB summaries (for each month back to 2006 or 2007). It is a pitty that MS now has erased all former infos :-/

Is that an abbreviation or something :)?  For World Of Warcraft?  Or Windows on Windows?

Hi Waldo,

Just wanted to say thanks again for this post. I am currently going through some issues with NAV 5.0 SQL 2005, etc. which requires applying some of these updates to try and improve performance.

I know that in order to check if I have applied the correct version I can find the build number (Help, About, Double click on the Version No.) and then Google it to find which update it is. The Google link returns this post. Very useful!

Are you serious?  I wonder if "live" would give the same results Wink.

Actually it's no wonder that you've been found in google ... msdynamics.de is not the only community that links to your blog, quite sure ;-)

Seems to be a new 4.0 version out:

4.0.3.26410 (from KB 950920).

Also, the build of NAV 5SP1 is 5.0.26084.0.

Thanks

Daniel

Yep, indeed.

I'm already working on a new table and will publish it soon.

I have some new interesting links as well that I would like to share.

Thanks for the heads up!
