Navision Financials was the first version of Navision which was
based on Microsoft Windows. It was released in 1995 together with
Windows 95.
When Navision Financials was released it was perhaps the only
financial application which lived 100% up to the requirements in
Microsoft's design guidelines made especially for Windows 95. In fact
Navision made a long list of areas where Microsoft didn't apply to
their own design requirements.
Navision tried to apply the same and very strong requirements to
their new add-on certifications program. In the period the program
officially was in effect in Denmark they only got one program
certified, a Danish payroll application, that after only one year had
to shut down. The requirement was too difficult to fulfill.
The name Navision Financials was used until 2001 with the release of
Navision Solutions which even before it was released in most
countries had it's name changed to Navision Attain.
