We are about to use this program and I am wondering for the excess price we pay where are the reference books for the program, it is a proven fact that is a class the purple only can absorb 25% of that is being taught, the rest comes from the books that should be supplied.

That`s really helpful!
If you need books, but you are not sure where to find them, then I can give you one resource. I myself am constantly sitting there when I want to read something, it’s quite convenient, freebooksummary.com/compare-and-contrast-romeo-and-juliet-play-and-movie-72408 is very popular and has a lot different thematic books that you will surely like. You can safely use it, it’s much more pleasant and convenient to read on the site than on others.
Bo,
I forgot to mention that through CustomerSource you can also find instructor lead training for in person learning. I hope this information is helpful.
Hmm. Yes it dosen't sounds good.
I can't really comment on your specific case without knowing how the procurement Contract of your NAV ERP project has been made but let me give you some general advice:
- The software and implementation service is two seperate parts. Microsoft is the owner of the NAV ERP software and your implementation provider is a seperate company doing consultancy.
This means the same NAV ERP Software can be highly sucess full in one company and fail in the next.
- When you implement ERP a company normally look to automate and optimise its business process during the project. (The standard out-of-box + copy what we do now process is not going to justify the ERP investment).
1. The Out-of-box ERP and its std. processes described in the manuals (Or through a class room training) is app. cover 50-60% of what you need. By adding a vertical/Industry solution you can reach 80-90%.
2. In an ERP Project you split the project into multiple phases.
Phase 1: is Basic (Which covers a integrated flow through out the departments with end resoult as reconsile and close month end).
Phase 2: Enhancement. Here you automate and finetune any gaps from phase 1 and extend the over all system/process along with Key reporting. Alse a review of documentation provided and areas like workflow, permission, approvals etc.
Phase 3: Department wise features/Reports. First now the focus are switshed to the end users many diffrent requerements for him/his department.
Phase 4: BI Reportsing, Eccomerce, SharePoint Integration, Selfservice
3. We are talking people when we talk ERP. So you need to look at selecting a very very skilled extrernal Implementation. (You can spot these kind of people by; should be min. 10 Years full time into implementing NAV ERP - Proberly Divorsed - Have a strong personality - In the late 30 or 40'ties.
One of the main advantage with NAV compared with other ERP's is that its simple.... I don't mean simple to use as in marketing terms.
But with NAV you can find People who over the years has so strong expertise that they can master all the functions in diffrent areas like Accounting, Management, inventory, Costing, Sales, Purchase etc. In other ERP's it will be almost impossible to find those kind of people (because the software are much more complex and less flexible) so that means you now will need 3 Implementors + a Project Manager+ to get the same knowhow.
Actually there is always a min. 3 person team - You can't mix these as its diffrent skills and/or roles.
The Senior Implementor who Design workflow, Work with customers about Change Management, provide the Development Requerements, Write the Business procesdure etc.
Then you need a Technical/Developer. And like anything else you need to work hard and long to be good at being a developer... so!
Then a assistant implementor/supporter is needed so the Senior can delegate some tasks.

Bo,
On CustomerSource you can also download training materials around the Microsoft Dynamics products.
Do you have access to CustomerSource? Is your company on a active service plan? If you don't have access to CustomerSource let me know and I can look into this for you.
Please provide me with the following information:
or
Send this information to me at v-nhoban@microsoft.com. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yes, they were supposed to be as far as I know, but in my option, they are wanting in many ways and as I stated at $150,000 form an out of the box program, to me is a rip-off. Sorry Dynamics.
Just another pearl we are expect to go live after 4 classes. is this the norm,
Did you went to a class room training without getting any material supplied?
A bit like buying a washing machine but not considering to get it installed.
Good afternoon. A couple of things that I will mention
1. You can download the training materials from customersource under the training & certifications-download traininger materials.
2. If you are looking for a hard copy, you can order those through your Microsoft Certified Partner or a local Microsoft Certified Partner for Learning Solutions.
3. There is also the e-learning courseware previously mentioned, which is available under the same training & certifications- e-learning.
You also mentioned about the information being taught and retaining the knowledge. Did you receive a formal Dynamics NAV classroom training from a certfied Microsoft Certified Partner for the Learning Solutions?
