Sizing for Dynamics NAV

(0) Share

Posted on by Community Member

Hi to all,

We need to know if NAV is capable to manage a company that makes between 80,000 to 100,000 transactions per day (considering purchase orders, sales orders, payments, receivables, etc. and if there's any documentation about the sizing of the server (or multiple-servers) that the customer needs to buy.

Thank you very much in advance and waiting for reading you comments.

Best regards,

Gabriel Guerrero

in that case you‘ll need need inhouse servers, no hosting solution. high speed network. sql server enterprise cluster. multiple nav service instances. mass processing of purchase lines e.g. via journals or use batch posting running in background processes.

for server sizing follow mbs.microsoft.com/.../MicrosoftDynamicsNAV2013R2SingleTenantOnPremiseSizingGuidelines.pdf

Agreed with Jonathan. As a product Dynamics NAV will be able to cater such a level of transaction load. You will have to have a very good and solid infrastructure to back the solution.

Hi Jonathan,

Sorry for the delay in my response. Thank you for your guidance an comments.

Does it makes a difference if we are talking about 100,00 transactions per MONTH not per day?

Sorry but it was my mistake. It is not per day. Is per month.

Best regards,

means about 3000 transactions per day. no problem for nav, no problem for sql server. for you that means, you can use a quite "normal" infrastructure, but you should work with multiple nav service instances (2 or 3) and a sql cluster (2 databases). also think of the client pcs, the nav windows client (rtc) needs quite high quality hardware and high speed network, so that the employees do not have to wait a lot. you should at least use one nav service instance to process the transactions, which should be processed automatically. for the end users use a different nav service instance to prevent locking scenarios.

If this is per month, there should be generally no problem with the posting of those amounts. Agree with Jonathan re infrastructure. Also, consider you can put posting processes to a batch job to be run in the nights.
