Blog Post: Do you have a value, Mr. BLOB?
To check if a BLOB field has a value, you call its HASVALUE function. For example: IF Item.Picture.HASVALUE THEN; In older versions, earlier than NAV 2009, you had to call CALCFIELDS before you could check HASVALUE, which – if you think of it, did not make much sense. This was changed in NAV 2009, so ever since that version you can check HASVALUE before you decide to call CALCFIELDS first. It makes all the sense – you don’t need to pull up to 2GB of data over just to see if anything is inside. If you are an old-school guy (or just old, as me), and you CALCFIELDS first, HASVALUE next, maybe it’s time for you to reconsider it. Rembember – the pattern is: IF Field.HASVALUE THEN Rec.CALCFIELDS(Field); Read this post at its original location at http://vjeko.com/blog/value-mr-blob , or visit the original blog at http://vjeko.com . 5e33c5f6cb90c441bd1f23d5b9eeca34 The post Do you have a value, Mr. BLOB? appeared first on Vjeko.com .

Forum Post: RE: Choose the topic for the next NAV SCM Webinar!
How about data entry - best methods? I just entered an 18" stack of invoices, a thousand invoices (1,356 to be exact), in 5 hours, using our current system. Let's call it 240 invoices per hour, 4 per minute. This includes selecting a vendor, entering the invoice number, invoice date, receipt date, and the account level breakdown for the invoice. I can't get our current consultants to release a 'working' NAV environment to test data entry in, so, how does this input speed compare with others' experience? What recommendations would be made to either speed up entry in basic NAV or modify it to speed up entry? I'd enter this topic on your poll, but I'm not registered on Twitter.

Forum Post: Mail 397 - using Newmessage but being able to select a user profile
I am using Mail codenuit (397)'s newmessage function to be able to create a new Outlook Message and have users review the message before sending. This is working well and good. However, I want to be able to automatically select a user profile as the sender. Can I do this programmatically? E.g., in my Outlook, I actually have two user profiles. I want my recipients to know that email came from a specific email address. if I can hardcode this in Nav, it's okay too. Please advise.

hi, one option: use a strmenu dialog to select the sender mail before executing newmessage msdn.microsoft.com/.../dd339017.aspx another option: add a new field "Email 2" to the table "company information". develop a logic to use one of the email addresses from the company information as sender mail address.

Raokman, well done. Welcome to the party pooper club ;) But I think it's a valid entry anyway. I know some people who reach this speed with NAV Classic Client, with a few customizations. But I highly doubt that you will reach the same speed in RTC (any version). The UI just isn't designed for speed. Even if you know every code from memory, know all keyboard shortcuts, the UI is too slow for this. By design. :(

so I tell the CEO he has to triple/quadruple/quintuple? his data entry headcount? I was just helping out for a person who'd been out 2 weeks sick and got curious. I am by no means the fastest at data entry. Most of the clerks average 10,000 invoices per week. What do you mean the UI is "slow by design"? ??? !!???

Forum Post: RE: Fixed Quantities on BOMS
You can also customized the Calculation Formula in Production BOM Line and add a new one (ie. you can call this Calculation Formula= "Static"). This is what you later will used when calculating expected quantities in components. This is now being done in the OnValidate of Calculation Formula from Prod. Order Component table (T5407). Currently, it shows: CASE "Calculation Formula" OF "Calculation Formula"::" ": Quantity := "Quantity per"; "Calculation Formula"::Length: Quantity := ROUND(Length * "Quantity per",0.00001); "Calculation Formula"::"Length * Width": Quantity := ROUND(Length * Width * "Quantity per",0.00001); "Calculation Formula"::"Length * Width * Depth": Quantity := ROUND(Length * Width * Depth * "Quantity per",0.00001); "Calculation Formula"::Weight: Quantity := ROUND(Weight * "Quantity per",0.00001); END; "Quantity (Base)" := Quantity * "Qty. per Unit of Measure"; VALIDATE("Expected Quantity",Quantity * ProdOrderNeeds); So, I guess the above should be easy to modify with a new Calculation Formula.

Hi Jonathan. I like the option 2: add a new field to use as sender mail address. However, in the Mail 397 codenunit, using NewMessage function doesn't give me the option to change the sender mail address. Please advise. I really like the NewMessage function as I want users to review the message before sending. However, this function doesn't give me the option to select a sender mail address.

Forum Post: Connector for Microsoft Dynamics NAV
I am trying to setup the NAV Dynamics Connector but keep running into the same issue. Under "MS Dynamics NAV Settings" I enter the URL as: http://xxxx-db01:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS Then a "Test Settings" results in the following error: If I browse to the same URL in a browser this results in a "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error". I can however browse to http://xxxx-db01:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS/SystemService and http://xxxx-db01:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS/Services and both return correct XML responses. I have tried using both of these URLs instead on the connector but the same error remains. When I browse to http://xxxx-db01:7047/DynamicsNAV/WS this does generate the following event log: Service: User: Type: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException Message: startIndex cannot be larger than length of string.

" I would assume company might prefer to use an E-system to automatize this manual task and focus they employee in other added-value tasks." The reason we can enter invoices at the current rate is because we already have scanned them, printed their summary forms from our PO system, and are finally just slamming them in. We've tried OCR, but there are too many problems to use it reliably...we spend more time tracking down the problems than entering the invoices. A clerk's day is basically opening and distributing the mail, matching the scanned PO documents to their invoices, making any notes and/or changes to their invoices, sorting their stack by vendor (which speeds entry as we have shortcuts to bring up the previous vendor's information for each invoice), and then pumping the invoices in. I would be very interested in your "e system". Tell me more. Sorry for the apparent hijack of the thread, but I don't know what "SCM" is? Is that some other version of NAV? I'm just a user having this dumped on me, told to "make it work". Sorry all around.

Blog Post: Establishing stakeholders in an ERP implementation
There are a lot of key players in an enterprise resource planning implementation. When a software suite covers much of a company's business operation, there are many people that will want input on what is being put in place. As a consequence, there will likely be a lot of chatter as a manufacturer develops an implementation team to select and install the program. Realizing the benefits of a new ERP system, such as Microsoft Dynamics NAV, means talking to a lot of people in the firm to ensure the overall success of the operation. At the same time, knowing who the stakeholders are can help filter out the noise and help ensure that a successful strategy is deployed. A matter of representation Stakeholders are often seen as the people most likely to not to be directly involved with the implementation team, but are still using the software directly and indirectly. As Galena IT describes it, a stakeholder is an organization or person that has influence in a company. They have the ability to request project changes and can affect operations that impact the business overall. Stakeholders are also the people most directly impacted by the transition. They include individual employees that have a voice among others in their departments, managers, suppliers of parts and raw materials and customers. Groups of employees can also qualify as they are likely the end users of the software overall. All in all, they represent specific interest groups that are affected by an ERP implementation and they have a stake in the outcome and performance of the project, according to consultant Fabia McLean Bourda. These stakeholders serve several roles that give them a specific vantage point in terms of affecting the installation. For example, they can be the people that implement the changes needed to complete the installation. They can also release the money and technological resources necessary to finish the job, as well as approve any changes. This makes them powerful enough to bring down the entire transition if the team responsible fails to work with them. Identification and involvement With this much influence to bear, the ERP implementation team should go out of their way to appease them. The first step is to identify the stakeholders in an attempt to engage with them. Lumenia Consulting points out that this requires special analysis of the ERP solution itself, even if it's an update to a Microsoft Dynamics implementation. Companies should be able to determine how the new software will directly affect the entire operation. From there, companies are able to see that transitions will affect not just employees and management, but customers, unions, suppliers, regulators and distributors. After the stakeholders are identified, the ERP implementation team should figure out their overall involvement. Some, like the employees, should have a direct line on engagement with the implementation. Other groups such as customers and regulators will probably want to know information that may affect them directly. From there, a plan for managing all the stakeholders can develop, making the transition more seamless.

Forum Post: RE: Requisition planning / logic
Agree with Saurabh. Also, you need to analyze why you are getting a reorder point replenishment in the past: - is the reorder point properly calculated? - is the lead time accurate? - did we have an earlier replenishment which we did not carry out? - are we running planning often enough to ensure reordering is done? Having action lines in the past should not happen frequently in NAV unless we have an issue in our process or setup.

With E system I am just suggesting any Electronic Invoicing or Billing system which allows you to automitaze this process. It can be used to Exchange documents in any format (EDI, XML, CSV, ...) or by uploading these through web, FTP, ... http://www.mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=45710&view=previous At the end, I am suggesting that it might be time to focus on how that manual process (scan, print, enter) can be switch to a more added value one. It might be time to invest in a E system and use your sales personnel to other process (ie. promise orders, marketing, ...)

Forum Post: RE: Choose the topic for the next NAV SCM Webinar!
That sounds wonderful. What I want to know is a specific system, name, contact info, etc. One that will handle 1,000's of suppliers, many of them ma and pa operations that submit handwritten invoices, riddled with math errors because they don't use computers, just add things up like in grade school. Hopefully your system will adapt to multiple product types, food, equipment, services, supplied to us from literally around the globe in multiple currencies and languages. We have already invested heavily in automating the processes involved in getting our vendors paid. NAV is just the latest (but, in my opinion, maybe not the greatest) in a long line of investments. I know all about EDI and FTP, but honestly, for the volume we deal with, logging onto the FTP sites or just downloading EDI invoices from a constantly increasing number of sources doesn't really sound more efficient, honestly. We do EDI with some of our larger sources who provide a fairly consistent set of products and who have the resources necessary to deal with the process, but, for the most part, our vendors aren't EDI-types. I guess what I'm saying is we deal in the real world. I did once do some work for the type of operation you think we should be? A repacking operation that bought a (very) limited set of ingredients from a (very) closed set of suppliers. They mixed the 12 or so ingredients in large tanks, then used the mixture to fill a steady line of detergent containers marching along a conveyor. The containers were then packed in cases, palletized, and held for pickup by the company contracting for the detergent. A private-label packaging operation. Billing consisted of sending out one invoice once a month. Payment was made to less than 24 vendors counting utilities and maintenance-types.
