    Dynamics NAV - Solutions or Industrial Distribution
    Global competition, shorter product lifecycles, lean economic conditions, increasing customer demands—these and other challenges put enormous pressures on industrial distributors. The escalating requirements of large customers present a particular challenge. Demands for lower prices, improved packaging, specifi c labeling, and tight delivery requirements create tough conditions—especially for any distributor still tied to conventional supply chain systems and processes. These large customers want value-added supply chain services such as collaborative planning and vendor managed inventories. In some cases, the demand for Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) can force industrial distributors to implement new business processes on top of old systems that do not provide adequate support

    Dynamics NAV - A Technology Review
    When reviewing any accounting software solution, I think that it is important to understand how the product is different from its’ competitors. All products are developed with different tools, different philosophies, and with different objectives in mind. All products are targeted towards different sized customers, and different industries. When evaluating products, it is easy to get bogged down in the overwhelming complexity of the systems. The reality is that all accounting systems have a general ledger with account numbers and financial reports; they all have an average accounts payable module that works fine; they all have a bevy of standard features. Studying these common elements of an accounting system will get you nowhere.

    Dynamics NAV - Generating Profitable Growth with a well tuned ERP Solution - A Prostrategy White Paper
    A lean supply chain is a set of organisations and processes that are linked in a continuous flow of products, services, finances and information that interact collaboratively to reduce cost and waste. Most people in manufacturing are familiar with the idea of “lean” manufacturing. In its simplest form, lean supply chain means producing goods with less, as it applies fewer resources to the production process without affecting the quantity or quality of the goods produced. Demand management is easily the most critical component of the lean supply chain because inappropriate production of goods is the source of much waste and expense. The key to effective demand management is to define customer value.

    EVALUATING FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE …Is it time for a change?
    Financial management software is the backbone of every organization and the foundation that helps a company manage and gain insight into the most important parts of their business. These applications streamline processes to help an organization manage business-critical functions such as accounting, project management, payroll, and human resources. When the financial management software of an organization becomes disjointed or broken, the implications can certainly impact the success and profitability of that organization. Evaluating financial management software can be an overwhelming task as there are many factors to consider. Some of the typical questions to ask about your system include: Does your financial system provide the latest and greatest functionality available? Are your users able to generate adequate reporting with the software’s reporting tools? Is your system completely integrated or are you required to enter the same data into multiple places and multiple systems? Do you spend more time finding the data than analyzing and responding to it? Do staff members spend a lot of time entering the same data into multiple systems to allow them to extract and analyze that information.
