[Scenario] Three different companies

JTPro · 2006-03-28

Hello all,

I need your opinion and sugestion.
I have a following situation. Three companies in a three different countries. These companies are financially separate, so each of them has to be represented in a Navision as a different company. But there are some common fields, like orders, customers, vendors. Two companies should work with functionality of a version W1 and other one with PL. All employees from all companies is about 70.
My idea is to put Navision on the central server, with functionality of PL version (that includes functionality of W1) and allow all client to connect to the server using VPN or something else. Each company will contain his own licence. Database of course SQL Server. Set some tables common for all companies.
Is it a good idea? Do you think that this might be worked?

I am indebted to you for your answers.

Best regards

Technically, it's a good solution.

However, each country has their own localized version of Navision to be compliant with the local tax laws. You'll probably need to take that into consideration as well.

You can have one database with a common object base, in which case you will have to merge localizations from three countries into one set of objects, and you would have one database to maintain. This has been done (although I don't know for sure for the particular countries in your situation). You can also have three separate databases, in which case you don't have to merge localizations, but you have three databases to maintain.

A lot of this will depend on your preference.
