Week ending 16/12/16

Client on site visit today so apologies for the delay in publishing this. By contrast no client visits at all last week and no more planned for this week.
Definitely getting quieter though a little too quiet on one client front re a Jan 2017 go live on Nav  2016. No doubt emails will flow later this week.
Work completed last week included put away report development changes [Nav 2009 RTC], creating MISSING permission set to accommodate missing permissions (specifically My Customer access on Nav 2013R2) and various changes to accounts schedules [Nav 2013R2]. No major plans for this week so expecting a much quieter week.
That's all folks.

Week ending 9/12/16

Another week goes by. Only 2 client visits last week and now only 1 this week. Must be getting close to Xmas.
Work completed last week: 2 client visits providing on site support including accounts schedules and column layout creations against requirement [Nav 2013r2] and change of configuration as a result of new chart of accounts [Nav 2016] - changes included amendment to various posting  matrix. Set of Nav 2009 RTC developments approved so we started this last week and delivered 2/3rds to the client for testing. The remaining 1/3rd will be completed this week. Also assisted in posting general journals for a client remotely re a finalising Nav to statutory accounts.
Felt busier than it looks above.
This week only 1 client visit but a lot of work to complete re developments (as noted above), changes to email smtp sending in Nav 2013, Nav 2016 implementation support (completed the training for the January 2017 go live a month ago) re set up data and SEPA export testing and other bits and bobs.

Week ending 2/12/16

Much quieter week last week on on site client visit front.
Came across a really useful Excel function when getting data from another legacy application in Excel format to Dynamics Nav via Rapidstart. CLEAN removes all invisible printing / formatting from an Excel cell including carriage return line feeds. Saves the day that one.
Work completed this week included:
Completed data migration for extended texts from legacy application to Dynamics Nav 2016 via Rapidstart. See note above re Excel CLEAN function.
Completed US sales tax pages for a client to report on sales pre sale tax and actual sales tax collected by month from the start of trading. [Nav 2013r2].
Development quote for 4 days [Nav 2009 RTC] approved by a client so we will start by requesting relevant object exports from the client and then start.
This week's plans include 2 client visits (both on site support - 1 for Nav 2013r2 and the other Nav 2016) and getting on with 4 day PO sign off re developments.
That's it for this week folks. Xmas is getting closer. :)
