Fast-paced, to-the-point, and created to enable experienced programmers with no previous knowledge of NAV development to quickly learn to create, modify or maintain NAV applications, this book covers the important topics of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 with clear explanations and practical example code. NAV (formerly known as Navision) is a complex Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) application with a unique design structure and a challenging learning curve that sometimes overwhelms developers learning to modify or enhance it for vital business purposes. Like an experienced mentor, this book covers the topics working developers need to know to become productive as quickly as possible: basic NAV terminology and concepts; object construction; tools, including the Table, Form, and Report Designers; using NAV's tools to effectively navigate through the features of objects, including properties, triggers, and C/AL code; developing and testing in the unique NAV C/SIDE development environment.
