User Guides/Manual for Microsoft NAV

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 320

Hi,

I am new to Microsoft NAV and am looking for user guides for Microsoft NAV ERP. I have an Oracle ERP background and I am accustomed to easily getting a hold user and configuration materials, but have no luck with MIcrosoft NAV.

 

Any help or advice would be appreciated as to where I could find this material.

 

John

    Hi Willie,

    It's actually not permitted in the Microsoft license agreement to publish or distribute those manuals online.  This is why the other posters suggested looking on PartnerSource or CustomerSource.

    Regards,

    Rob

    Hi,

    You could download the demo version and look at the on-line help. You will be limited if you cannot access CustomerSource / PartnerSource.  There is also a number on communities with documentation.

    Hi there, is there a way to access the resources of CustomerSource if I am not a customer or a partner (and neither is my company)? I want to work as a Dynamics NAV consultant, but the resources for this solution are so scarce. Your advice is much appreciated.

    Manuals found on Customersource are certification manuals. They go into very detail and may be overkill for most businesses.  

    You can also the refernce guide by simply pushing F1 in NAV. It's actually pretty comprehensive and will guide you step by step on what to do.

    Using Customer source will be your best option. You can find classes, material to download as well as white papers. (they have even made it searchable by interests.
