Hi Readers,

Let's continue what we are discussing from Last two weeks.

To understand the content of this article and use the pattern we are about to discuss in this article you need to go through old articles.

If you haven't read the Part 1 and Part 2 below are the links for same.

Part 1 - Send Email from Navision using a Pattern provided by Microsoft in New version.

Part 2 - Develop a Word Layout for Sales Shipment Report.

In this last article, we will discuss how to use the Pattern & Word Layout for sending an Email.

The idea is Simple - Using word Layout for the Email Body and then use Email Pattern to send Email.

Without Further Delay, let's discuss how we can configure & customize same in NAV 2017.
Thanks to Mohamed Zayed and hope this solves your issue.

** What we are customizing is already part of standard NAV. The article is just for an explanation how to customize if required to be added in some other NAV areas.

Hi Readers,

Continuing Email From NAV Part 1.

Today I would like to discuss a simple feature that Microsoft introduced in standard NAV for developing word Layout for a Report.

We will use this article in next part.

The Pattern in Developed and Enhanced from Microsoft starting NAV 2015. In today's article, we will discuss how to develop a simple word layout for Report - 208 Sales Shipment Report.

Your comments are awaited for future articles.

Hi Readers,

Today I would like to discuss a simple feature that Microsoft is working to be a part of standard NAV or I would say developed a Pattern for, but most of us are still using the old customizing ways which are hard as well as confusing to other developers.

The Pattern in Developed and Enhanced from Microsoft starting NAV 2015. In today's article we will discuss how to use the pattern if we want to send an email from NAV and the in the future article we will discuss other enhancements which can be used instead of customizing NAV.

The idea is Simple - Using base approach and Customize Less, Saves Cost to Customer and hassle for other developers.

Your comments are awaited for future articles.

** This pattern is available from NAV 2015 onwards but for demo, we will be using in NAV 2017.

Hi Readers,

I left the decision with you that the topic that we are discussing today is a feature or a bug which I found out recently in NAV 2017.

To Me, It's a feature but with my discussion with some professional, I think it depends on customer business how they want to consider this.

For some customers, it might be a feature but for some, they might want to remove it.

Hi All,

As With Release of New Version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017, we also need to look into the possibility of Upgrade Our Customer Base to it.

In this article, I will share my experience from a Mock Migration From 2016 To NAV 2017.

** Steps remain same if you plan to upgrade from 2013 or later.

So if something that you would be interested in Reading Please go Ahead.

Hi Readers,

Today I would like to discuss ApplicationArea Property with NAV 2017 and Dynamics 365.

As per my understanding (which can be wrong) this is a feature which is built in for Dynamics 365 but it does not make sense for Dynamics NAV.

With that I feel that - When we look a new feature in the product starting 2017! we need to think about it use not only for NAV but also in perspective of Dynamics 365!

The new enhancement available can be a feature of Dynamics 365 but it's of no use in Dynamics NAV.

Hi Readers,

In this article, we will discuss steps to Enable Outlook Add-in for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017.

This is one of the most requested articles, sorry for the delay and I hope this answers all questions.

For Enabling outlook add-in with Microsoft Dynamics NAV
(in-prem only) we require -

• SSL Certificate.
• Certificate Thumbprint.
• Web Client Installed.

Hi Readers,

I am back with steps to Create an SSL Certificate after so many e-mails from my readers.

The Reason behind having this as a separate article, because SSL Certificate is a pre-requisites for so many setups which will be seen in future.

** Make Sure  -
1. This article list down steps for creating a certificate for Test / Demo Environment.
2. For Product Environment, Please purchase an SSL Certificate from the certification authority.
3. Please follow all steps as specified.

Keep a Safe Copy of Certificate thumbprint Generated in - Step D.
and Keep a Safe Copy of Certificate Generated in - Step I.

We will need it in future for setup and Configuration.

As we are discussing new features in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Today we will discuss a cool feature that I found out in Dynamics NAV 2017.

For Already Published Articles about NAV 2017, Click Here.

As there are some great video tutorials available online on you tube that can be used by the customers when they implement Dynamics NAV. But the problem is information is so scattered that you end up suggesting multiple channels on you-tube that they can look for.

With Microsoft Dynamics NAV, that is no longer a problem.

Hi Readers,

** For the Demo I am using Network Service account. Suggested to use a Domain account to run Navision services.

** These steps need to be done for the account that is used for Running NAV Service Tier.

Hi Readers,

Yes, you read the title correctly it says, Database Locks. There are some pretty cool changes in terms of Identifying Locks that may occur during our code execution in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017.
