Cost Control is please to announce that we have added “Pivotier” as an additional reporting tool for Dynamics NAV.

How it Works?

  1. Pivotier queries are defined by IT or power users to handle the joining of tables and fields. Queries handle the interpretation of NAV flowfields and other data nuances automatically by generating Transact SQL statements at run-time. Queries also provide a level of data security and optimization of data reads to your SQL Server database.

Reporting Options in NAV

Posted by: Rick Baxter | Comments (0)

Who writes reports at your office? Reporting is not something your NAV Consultant is required to you. You can do it! Reporting tools are available to every NAV End-Users, but that doesn’t mean the end-user has to learn how to use the tool.

What is available to end-users?
a.  Built in Report Designer – Classic
b.  Built in Report Designer – RTC
c.  Pivotier – Tool to generate RDL Reports
d.  Jet Reports – Tool to generate Excel Reports
e.  Business Intelligence (Optional Tool Built in NAV)
f.  Business Intelligence (Advanced 3rd Party offerings)

The key to successful roll out of any Reporting Tools falls squarely on the shoulders of the end-user. If you are a NAV End-User, then step up and learn the tools. Actually, learn the tool, singular. Management should select the desired level of reporting needed, and then the staff needs to learn to fully utilize that tool.

Most Reporting Vendors offer class. Take the class! For some of the advanced reporting tools it might be as much as 5 days of class, but the results will be dramatic. You should no longer have to rely on a NAV consultant to create your reports, you know your company the best and the data that is desired on the reports. Just to be sure you know Cost Control Software provides Report Writer Training on CD, so you don’t even have to travel and you can re-watch as often as you like.
