Navision Customization and Reporting – tips for Programmer/IT Specialist
by: Robert Horowitz
Founded in 1984, Navision Software is a leading developer of innovative enterprise business management solutions. Now a part of the Microsoft business solutions family it's a growing force in the mid market space. Unlike other mid-market systems, Navision supplies the same database and business logic to the 2 user installation as the 200 user. This allows your company to grow with the product without the need to force you - programmer/developer to move to more expensive database platform.
Developing in Navision
- C/SIDE (Client/Server Integrated Development Environment) - The core of Navision is the C/SIDE. C/SIDE is the foundation for all the business management functionality of Navision. It is made up of five building blocks, called object types, which are used to create the application. These five object types are shared throughout Navision to create every application area, and give it a unified, consistent interface. This powerful language allows for the internal construction of new business logic and sophisticated reporting. Because of the internal nature of modifications it's highly recommended that you develop all your code in "processing only" report objects and called from the native code base. By grouping all your code in logical units, upgrades and additional modifications are easier to manage.
- C/ODBC and C/FRONT - Both C/ODBC and C/FRONT enable you to easily use information from Navision in familiar programs such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. The Open Database Connectivity driver for Navision (C/ODBC) is an application program interface (API) that provides a way for other applications, such as the entire Microsoft Office Suite, to send and retrieve data to and from the Navision database through the ODBC interface.
- External Tool: Navision Developer's Toolkit - The Navision Developer's Toolkit enables your Microsoft Certified Business Solutions Partner to upgrade your Navision solution to the latest version. It is used to analyze and upgrade customer and vertical solutions
Reporting Options - Aside from the powerful internal reporting tool which requires an in-depth knowledge of C/SIDE to make it useful the other options are:
- Jet Reports- Jet Reports is a complete reporting package utilizing Microsoft Excel. Using Excel you can create reports on any table of data from within any granule in Navision.
- C/ODBC - Using the ODBC driver, the entire Microsoft office suite and programs such as Crystal Reports can access the database. I would recommend using this tool for occasional reporting requests only. If you need to pull data out of the Navision database on a regular basis one of the other options is a better choice.
- Business Analytics (SQL Server Required) - Using Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) from Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000, Business Analytics organizes all of your business data into information units called cubes. Using a familiar Microsoft Outlook®-style interface, Business Analytics presents this information to your desk top where easy to use analytical tools allow you to carry out targeted analysis that is tailored by you, for you
- XBRL - Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) for Navision enables simple and dependable distribution of all a company's financial information and ensures smooth and accurate data transfer. XBRL is an XML-based specification that uses accepted financial reporting standards and practices to export financial reports across all software and technologies, including the Internet

Customer Testimonials on rock
We would never claim to be world authorities on rock but our passion and interest in this area has encouraged us to source out the best locations for rock purchases and products.
We have set a number of important criteria for evaluating rock websites. Among these are (1) secure shopping areas for rock purchases; (2) well documented customer support areas and (3) testimonials from happy clients. Just click on the link below and you will see how these apply:
Customer testimonials are a clear indication that a rock website is doing a good job. People who have purchased rock and received their goods in a prompt and efficient manner are the best advertising a business can have. In short they are saying **Buy your rock here**.
Long established highly reputable rock suppliers will even provide a contact link so that you can talk directly with the customer. This means that they are so confident that their rock customer has had a good experience that they are prepared to put you in direct contact with them.
Ultimately it will be your rock shopping experience that determines how happy you are with the supplier. We'd like to think of ourselves as intermediaries to ensure that your rock shopping experiences are positive ones. Our website is full of solid evidence backing up the shopping links shown above.
