As long as you have a compatible device and internet connectivity, you’ll have all access to your business data at any given time. This improves productivity and control of information.

With Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you have the flexibility to adjust the number of user licensing according to your fluctuating business needs, which makes ERP considerably easier and more effective. The subscription fee is charged per user per month, so you can increase or decrease this number as needed and subsequently save money thanks to this scalability, as you no longer need to pay for unused licensing.

Integrates with software

You’ll be able to directly integrate your Microsoft Dynamics NAV system with other software programmes used in your organisation, for example Microsoft Office. This allows employees to create invoices and reports using Microsoft Word and Excel templates, as well as make changes yourself while working in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV system.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV offers simple bank integration that allows bank statements to be imported into this ERP system or exported to electronic payment files as required by your bank. It also allows you as a user to import bank transaction data into a dedicated user interface while automatically opening entries representing the relevant customer and supplier documents.
