Oh and the 38K didn't include purchasing of the software at a nominal 5K, which we have already done and the only import routines they could show us was via Excel..... DOH!
Talk about profiteering!!!! Think I'll use this to become a NAV developer if that is what they are charging!!! <grin> Dave -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dave Crozier Sent: 15 April 2015 18:10 To: ProFox Email List Subject: [NF] Microsoft Dynamics NAV Our new parent company have thrust upon us that we have to migrate to Microsoft NAV Dynamics in order to product the accounts. From what I see of it, it is fairly complex and obviously is related back to Great Plains Accounting system which I actually did some work on many years ago. The language used to do development is called C/AL and seems to be a wrapper around T-SQL. Anyone had any exposure to either the product or the Language? Also, do ew need (and can we get) a C/AL development kit without undergoing all the M$ training and expense etc. Our big problem is that we need a basic General Ledger set up with daily sales import from VFP .... (no problem there!!!) but it needs to be up and going before the end of April ....<GULP> so we are up against a tight timeframe. We just had a quotation to install it on our hardware for 5 users (only one of which is needed at the moment) with standard company ledger templates for 38K Sterling... I nearly dropped corklegged and this stinks of SQP where the end user seems to be seen as a cash cow because nobody can go anywhere else. Ideas folks??
