Random Navision: What does ZUP stand for?

matttrax

I assume something User Preferences, but just wondering if anyone knows the real answer.

A long time ago I was told that "zup" meant "user" in Danish. I have no idea if that is really true or not.

I think, zup is a acronym for Setup (loudspeaking).

In the zup-File Navision (MS Dynamics NAV) stores the Positions of the application windows, filters, columns ...

Im certain zup doesnt mean user in danish

But i always thought it was Z-up like in set-up

I'm glad someone cleared that up. I had always wondered if that was true. At the time it seemed like the Navision employee that said it was BSing their way through an answer. I had just heard it a few time. I guess it sounded like a good answer so it just spread.

That is the case - the "Z" is pronounced as a UK English "Z" (as opposed to the more soft US English without the "t" sound) and therefore it becomes Z(et)up . . . .

Always fun with a little NAV trivia . . . .
