Dynamics Nav services: w/e 24/8/18

Only 4 first line support calls / emails last week. Subjects covered included confirmed how to change posting dates allowed [Nav 2013], how to close fiscal year and clear down P&L balances to reserves [[Nav 2013r2], how to amend UK VAT statement for new VAT Prod Posting Group [Nav 2013r2] and how to retrieve licence details [Nav 2009 RTC]. Also confirmed never used bank statement import on Nav 2017 - mainly because copy / paste from Excel must easier and more flexible.
Developments completed last week included a GL data transaction report (export as csv file) [Nav 2009 RTC] and a new BACS export report [Nav 2017].
Bar that a very quiet week.
Starting to look at MTD and implications for Nav clients. Watch this space for more details as we find them. Received PO for Nav 2018 upgrade work on bespoke developments completed for clients off Nav 2009 Classic. Conference call this week to confirm when required for and which edition of Nav 2018.

Dynamics Nav services: w/e 3/8/18

Only 6 support calls / emails last week covering database versions [Nav 2013r2], specifics re different types of user roles for jobs and time sheet implementation [Nav 2013r2], resolved US database tax calc error [Nav 2013r2], mirror company permissions issues [Nav 2013r2], lost page action from recent jobs and time sheets implementation [Nav 2013r2] and resolving VAT Posting Setup error caused by not assigning default VPPG to a GL code [Nav 2013].
So you have probably gathered from common theme for above support calls last week we have started to roll out a jobs and time sheets implementation for a client that uses SQL Sync across 2 databases. Last week we brought all amended / new objects into the live databases from test. This week we will configure permission sets and role centres once the client has confirmed user ids and types. Either this week or next the client will then complete any job / resource data migration using Rapidstart services.[Nav 2013r2].
Completed bespoke customer statement development and delivered to client live database after making some changes to the menu suite and some page actions to run the new customer statement report. [Nav 2015].
Bar that a quiet week. Expecting this week to be the same bar the above comment on jobs and time sheet implementation.
That's all folks.
