Management Reporter extends the proven functionality of Microsoft FRx and enables people to quickly and easily create, generate, help secure and publish professional-looking financial statements, such as profit and loss statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports, and will also allow them to take advantage of the following:

• Custom reports without IT assistance. These reports reduce the burden on the IT department by empowering the finance team to create its own financial statements.

• Deep cross-functional analysis. Management Reporter provides easy and accurate financial reporting, intercompany reconciliations and eliminations.

• Reduced training time and increased productivity. A familiar user interface and reporting tools minimize training time since users will easily be able to transition from Microsoft Office applications to the similar navigation pane and toolbars in Management Reporter.

• Strong data integrity and report accuracy. Management Reporter supports regulatory requirements, such as generally accepted accounting practices and international financial reporting standards.

"Management Reporter is like Microsoft FRx on steroids — it takes the familiar building blocks of Microsoft FRx and revolutionizes the way reporting and business intelligence can be delivered," said Les Wright, senior consultant, BDO Canada LLP, a Microsoft Dynamics partner. "This is something customers have been asking for and provides even more value to their Microsoft Dynamics ERP solutions."
Microsoft FRx customers making the transition to Management Reporter will experience a variety of new features including the following:

• Direct integration to the Microsoft Dynamics ERP general ledger. This integration aids in simplified, real-time reporting with greater accuracy.

• Reusable building blocks. Blocks of Report, Row, Column and Tree definitions can be mixed and matched to produce a wide variety of boardroom-quality reports.

• A Report Library. A Report Library is where reports can be secured, stored, and viewed

Management Reporter is available for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 customers at NO ADDITIONAL COST and will be available with future releases of other Microsoft Dynamics ERP solutions.

To assist customers currently using Microsoft FRx make the transition to Management Reporter, a migration tool, detailed guidance and information is available at

Upgrade from NAV 5 to NAV 2009 SP1 – A QUICK GUIDE

Regardless of the version from which you are trying to do the upgrade, the whole process can be divided into two main phases as Object Upgrade and the Data Upgrade. Let’s first look at the Object Upgrade. In Object Upgrade, you have to identify all the customizations done in the current live version of the customer database and implement the same in a new 2009 SP1 database. Please remember that there are no short-cuts for this process. This is entirely a manual process, but you can make use of the existing tools such as Developer Toolkit. Using the Developer Toolkit you can compare/merge the original version 5 db and the current customer database wherein you can identify the differences between the two databases and implement the modifications in a new 2009 SP1 fresh database. Once you complete this process, you are through with the phase no 1. Remember that this is the most time consuming phase in an upgrade project. If you make any mistakes then you have to suffer lot in the subseque...

MS Dynamics NAV – Setting up an Application Server (NAS) In MS dynamics NAV, there are lots of discussions about NAS and its behavior & functionality and also about installing NAV correctly. Lets’ first see what is meant by NAS? What is NAS? Navision Application Server is a middle-tier server that runs as a service. It is designed to provide access from external clients to the MS Dynamics NAV Navision database. The database could be either MS SQL Server or Native Navision Database Server.
