Microsoft Unveils New Functionality for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 will deliver on software-plus-services vision and include CRM integration and online payment service.
PRAGUE, May 19 -- As part of Microsoft Corp.'s commitment to providing leading enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions to midrange organizations worldwide, the company today unveiled Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 at Directions EMEA 2010. Because of the investment in architecture for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009, customers are able to take advantage of the benefits of the software-plus-services vision through the R2 release more quickly than scheduled, including built-in integration with Microsoft Dynamics CRM and online Payment Service. Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 customers will benefit from the following:

-- Microsoft Dynamics CRM integration. Today's fast-paced business
environment demands instant access to customers and vendors. Microsoft
is providing built-in integration with Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
Benefits of customer relationship management (CRM) integration include
eliminating redundant data entries, keeping information up to date in
both ERP and CRM solutions, and providing salespeople with the ability
to quickly access detailed business information about contracts,
pricing and product availability. Customers can choose between
integration to on-premises Microsoft Dynamics CRM or Microsoft
Dynamics CRM Online with the option to migrate to either option over
time.
-- Online Payment Service for Microsoft Dynamics NAV. This enables
customers to process payment transactions from the Microsoft Dynamics
NAV interface across multiple channels, including e-commerce, point of
sale and call center transactions. The Payment Service works with
leading payment processing services and all major credit cards.
-- RoleTailored interface access for remote or roaming users. Microsoft
Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 supports direct access from the Microsoft
Dynamics RoleTailored experience over the Internet. This allows for
remote or roaming users to take advantage of the richness and
Microsoft Office integration of the RoleTailored interface and the
many integration features connected to local resources, such as the
operating system and Microsoft Office. This reduces the complexity and
overhead compared with using other applications such as Citrix Systems
and Terminal Services, especially for hosting partners offering
cloud-based Microsoft Dynamics NAV deployments.
-- Microsoft Application Virtualization support. The Microsoft Dynamics
NAV 2009 R2 RoleTailored interface can be deployed using Microsoft
Application Virtualization (App-V) technology, which is relevant for
both on-premise and hosted solutions. This provides a better
experience for the end user as all integration with local applications
is done on the desktop. It also cuts IT costs by centrally managing
Microsoft Dynamics NAV client installations with automatic deployment
to the desktop after an update.
-- Windows 7 user experience improvements. Through Microsoft Dynamics NAV
2009 R2, jump lists can be used to open recently accessed customers
and vendors for increased business productivity and efficiency, and
the icon overlay functionality provides information on system events
and status streamlined with the Windows 7 user experience.
-- Treemap visualization. Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 showcases the
possibilities around business data visualizations abilities in
Microsoft Dynamics NAV through rich ad hoc data visualization. It
provides treemap analysis that enables the comparison of any two
values, for example sales and profits, which increases business
productivity and business insight. The innovative client extensibility
framework used allows partners to extend the user experience of
Microsoft Dynamics NAV to integrate visualizations into any end-user
scenario.
"We're delivering this release in response to customer and partner feedback," said Crispin Read, general manager of Microsoft Dynamics ERP at Microsoft. "Microsoft is committed to continuously bringing forth innovation in our ERP solutions, including the integration with cloud services. These latest enhancements to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 are an important step in delivering solutions that drive real business productivity."
"The new features in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 improve our business opportunities and benefit our customers. The fact that Microsoft is able to deliver faster than planned reaffirms our decision to build our solutions on Microsoft Dynamics NAV," said Christian Sega, managing director at agiles Informationssysteme GmbH, an industry solution provider and consulting company specializing in horizontal workflow solutions built on Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 R2 will be available in the fourth quarter of 2010.
