Good day,
I'm currently on 3.7 and I'm thinking of moving to 4.x or 5.0.
Other than the fact that 3.7 is no longer supported by Microsoft why would I want to move to 4.x or 5.0?
What are the key new features/benefits?
I am primarily using General Ledger, Sales & Receivables, Purchase & Payables, Inventory and Manufacturing.
Any quick insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much.

The final item could be basically a box with several items on it. Kitting is the right solution for this.
They've made a lot of improvements in 5.0 for costing.
Prepayment is another feature. Approval process for sales and PO.

On the other hand, if you generally consider Navision as a development environment, continuously making changes, then just stick to technical upgrades I think. It's a question of how you relate to NAV business logic - if you use it mostly as it is then do upgrade, but if use some bits of it when they seem useful but usually just develop your own then don't.
I have these concerns too. Vista is certainly something to consider (I think the biggest reason we might upgrade).
We also do a fair amount of development, so I am a little apprehensive to do so at the same time. I'll figure it out though.
I did see a demo movie on the MS site a short while back about setting email notifications. The example was 'If a Purchase Order wasn't confirmed, etc. etc., send an email notification'. It looked really simple to set up as well.
Can anyone tell me...
Is this standard functionality in any specific version or is it an add-on and what is it called?
Thanks again.

I would like to clarify one thing.
Is 'Business Notifications' a granule that you have to purchase or can you use it for any module (S&R, P&P, etc.) that you already have licensed?
Thanks again.
