Now you really can get more done faster – with Microsoft Dynamics® NAV 5.0

Microsoft have just released the latest version of Microsoft Dynamics® NAV 5.0 and the way it integrates with other Microsoft technology is a huge benefit for Managing and Financial Directors who want to optimise their workforce. By integrating seamlessly with Microsoft Office, SQL Server, Biztalk and Windows Live search it helps employees make better use of their time and get more done faster! So how does it do it? It works fast in Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheets Integration with Microsoft Office Excel makes everyday tasks much simpler and less time-consuming. There's no need to jump from one application to another. For example, let's say a sales manager needs to hand out a customer list to his team, but wants to modify it in Office Excel first. The sales manager can click the Export to Excel icon in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Then the sales manager can use Office Excel as usual, adding columns and inserting comments with additional information, such as the responsible account manager, a priority number, and other information about each customer. It enables you to use Microsoft Office Word formatting when you need it. It's just as easy to export data to Microsoft Office Word as it is to Microsoft Office Excel. If a salesperson wants to send a customer a letter, for example, the salesperson can export all the necessary information from the customer card in Microsoft Dynamics NAV directly into a sales letter style sheet in Office Word. The salesperson might also want to export information that requires a calculation, such as a price list with availability of products. Once the data is exported, the salesperson can continue to use Office Word formatting as usual, including adding headings, making text bold, inserting images, and so on. It helps save time and hassle by synchronising with Microsoft Office Outlook. Any field from any table in Microsoft Dynamics NAV can be synchronised with Microsoft Office Outlook. The only limitations are the restrictions your administrators place on a given user. People can schedule meetings, manage contacts, and send e-mail messages in just one program, and the data will automatically be updated in both Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Office Outlook. It facilitates cost-efficient exchange of data with Microsoft BizTalk Server. Tight integration with Microsoft BizTalk Server helps you reach out to new trading partners. You can exchange data cost-efficiently, regardless of the system a trading partner uses or the standards they require. Information sent or received is automatically updated in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and significantly increases data accuracy. It creates links to control and share unstructured data. Companies often have a lot of relevant information they need to refer to in unstructured formats and sources such as e-mails and Web sites. In Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you can add links to any Web site or file stored on a document management system, such as Microsoft Office SharePoint Server. For example, you could create links from an item in Microsoft Dynamics NAV to a product Web site, a video demo of the product, images of the product, or to other documents created in the Microsoft Office system. Links can be created from any form in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. It helps find maps and directions directly from the program. Integration to Microsoft Windows Live Local Search gives you access to a valuable, time-saving function. You just click a button next to the relevant address in Microsoft Dynamics NAV on the customer card, for example, and then follow the simple driving directions on the screen. You can also print out a map and step-by-step directions. You can view, print, and get driving directions between any two addresses stored in the system. It helps you make decisions confidently with built-in business analytics. With tools such as online analytical processing (OLAP) enabled by Microsoft SQL Server, you can draw upon table relations within Microsoft Dynamics NAV for a multi-dimensional view of data (for example, how a particular product is performing in a certain region in a given time period). You can access the cubes in a reporting application tool, such as Microsoft Office Excel or the Business Analytics Advanced Viewer. It ensures you get the right information to the right people You can easily store and share information from Microsoft Dynamics NAV. For example, if a manager wants to make weekly sales reports available to salespeople in the field, the manager can maintain the list in just one place. The relevant salespeople (who have been given access rights) can then view the sales report using Microsoft Dynamics NAV Employee Portal. Employee Portal connects Microsoft Dynamics NAV to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server to give people a simplified view of important business data on their own personalised intranet home pages without having to be trained on Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
