Overview of this book

<p>Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 is an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application used in all kinds of organizations around the world. It provides a great variety of functionality out-of-the-box in different topics such as accounting, sales and purchases processing, logistics, or manufacturing. But it also allows companies to grow the application by customizing the solution to meet specific requirements.<br /><br />"Implementing Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013" explains all you need to know to successfully handle your first Dynamics NAV 2013 implementation. You will learn what the application can do out of the box, how you can extend it to meet any kind of requirements, and how to manage real implementation projects with real customers.<br /><br />This book does not only cover typical topics when implementing the new version of an ERP system; topics that are not found in any previous documentation of Dynamics NAV, such as the implementation process at the customer side, or implementing functional changes on existing Dynamics NAV implementations are included in here. This approach makes this book different.<br /><br />After reading "Implementing Dynamics NAV 2013" you will be empowered with the skills and knowledge you need for successful implementations.</p>
