Microsoft Dynamics NAV for multi-site and international organizations

Microsoft Dynamics NAV for multi-site and international organizations

Multi-site and international organizations (MIOs), face unique challenges when choosing and deploying a business management solution. Microsoft Dynamics NAV readily integrates with the parent company’s system while meeting the varying needs of different sites, regardless of size, location, or type of business.

The challenge for multi-site and international organizations

Integrating the IT systems of MIO locations is critical for effectively sharing information, supporting common needs, and functioning successfully as one entity. However, individual sites typically don't require the same level of complexity in their business management solution as the parent company, and they may not have the resources to acquire and maintain a system designed for a larger company.

The ideal solution for the MIO business model is a strong core platform and solution that has the flexibility to meet the unique needs of local sites, regardless of their complexity, specialization, or location.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV: designed for your sites
Microsoft Dynamics NAV is a business management solution with the flexibility to support the varied needs of multi-site and international organizations, regardless of size, location, or type of business. Designed to meet the needs of small and midsize organizations, it is easy to use and maintain for a low total cost of ownership (TCO).

Microsoft Dynamics NAV can help MIOs by supporting processes and integrating the information of local sites with the parent company's systems.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV can support multiple sites.

An MIO must consider the following four key challenges when choosing a solution for deployment:

• Meets the needs of complexity. Sites may have the same level of business complexity as the parent company, but on a different scale and without the same IT resources. The solution that is best for the parent company is often too big, complicated, cumbersome, and costly for its sites, and it may not address the local requirements or specific business needs of the local sites. Microsoft Dynamics NAV helps MIOs balance the need for complexity without requiring a large IT staff or extensive user training.

• Meets the needs of specialization. Sites with specialized functions have key industry and vertical requirements that may differ widely from those of other sites and the parent company. More than 57,000 customers worldwide in a wide variety of industries have already customized and deployed Microsoft Dynamics NAV to accommodate their individual needs, and more than 2,700 Microsoft Certified Partners currently deliver these customizations.

• Meets the needs of locations. Sites located in different countries need a solution that meets local regulatory and market requirements as well as industry- and location-specific practices for bookkeeping, reports, and financial statements. With more than 40 localized versions that include multicurrency and multi-language capabilities, Microsoft Dynamics NAV adapts to local legislative and market requirements.

• Meets the needs of flexibility. MIOs must strike a balance between deploying worldwide standardization and allowing customizations to support business procedures at the local site level. Microsoft Dynamics NAV is easy to customize and configure, and it can scale to support changing needs as a company grows.

Top 7 benefits of using Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Microsoft Dynamics NAV solution for MIOs can benefit business in seven key ways:

1. Meets the individual needs of sites, regardless of their size, location, or type of business.

2. Improves workflow efficiency for financial consolidation.

3. Gives you clear business insight with integrated analytics.

4. Offers an efficient means of exchanging data.

5. Can reduce costs by helping you share responsibility for services.

6. Promotes a more efficient supply chain.

7. Helps you respond proactively to business conditions.

Six common integration scenarios

If you are part of a multi-site and international organization (MIO), find out how your company can benefit from integrating Microsoft Dynamics NAV with another enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution at the parent company—in these six common scenarios.

• Scenario 1: Consolidating financial data. To run your business and meet increasingly demanding international standards, such as Sarbanes-Oxley and International Accounting Standards (IAS) 2005, parent organizations must get a consolidated view of finances from local sites. At the same time, the sites may have to answer to local financial standards and reporting requirements.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV can help save time and effort by enabling you to consolidate financial statements for a series of business units. You can transfer from different accounting structures, including financial statements in different currencies.

• Scenario 2: Gaining business insight. To maintain control over your entire organization, managers at the parent level need access to data located in individual site systems. This information may range from sales reports to inventory figures. And you need to receive information in a format that is easy to understand, analyze, and share.

With Business Analytics in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, site employees can create online analytical processing (OLAP) cubes based on full access to stored local data—without the need for extensive IT support. Controllers at the parent office can access reports using Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services, Microsoft Office Excel, or other familiar tools. The result is clear visibility into the entire organization with faster and more efficient reporting.

• Scenario 3: Sharing master data. Your parent company and sites may share certain critical business information, such as vendor records, price lists, and customer data. However, this information is often maintained in different systems that may use different formats, which can lead to inconsistencies and wasted time. If your parent company wants to share master data with sites that use a different ERP system, you have to connect the systems.

Microsoft tools for electronic data exchange enable the entire organization to share master data. One such tool is XMLport, which is used to create XML documents that can easily be read by multiple applications.

• Scenario 4: Sharing responsibility for services. MIOs may decide to share services with local sites; customers may wish to receive consolidated invoices reflecting interactions with multiple sites; you may need to divide tasks based on specific competencies at site levels; or you may want to centralize payroll or procurement to obtain efficiencies or bulk discounts.

With Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you can facilitate shared services through electronic exchange of data based on BizTalk Server or functionality for intercompany postings.

• Scenario 5: Enabling interdivisional transactions. Sites sometimes need to interact with one another to redistribute inventory or complete workflows. For example, one site may act as distributor of another site's product, or divisions of a government agency may need to interact to complete a workflow.

You can set up Microsoft Dynamics NAV to treat interdivisional transactions as normal sales and purchase transactions. The sites can interact among themselves using either a BizTalk Server and Commerce Gateway or the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Intercompany Postings solution.

• Scenario 6: Responding proactively to business events. Your parent organization and sites comprise a supply chain, and although the role of each may be quite varied, all are interdependent. When a manufacturer relies on another site to deliver raw goods, delays can affect the entire supply chain.

Companies can set up alerts using the Business Notification feature in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, which will automatically generate e-mail messages about critical business conditions at their various sites, divisions, or supply chain partners.

Microsoft Dynamics for the sales professional

Microsoft Dynamics for the sales professional

Meet customer needs, drive more sales, and build strong customer relationships

The success of a company relies on the business and revenue it generates. Maintaining happy customers while pursuing new relationships is essential to this task. The Sales department not only drives future growth but also shapes the direction of the company and enables it to meet its goals through the customer relationships created by sales engagements.

Sales representatives must have available to them the most accurate company data, including up-to-the-minute product and service pricing as well as information about clients. Success for the sales department depends largely on immediate access to business-critical information, which helps them respond to customer needs. Customer relationship management (CRM) software can give the sales team a strategic advantage and make information that can be hard to find or that resides in disparate systems more centralized and readily available.

People

Kevin, a Sales Manager

As a Sales Manager for a midsize company, I am responsible not only for the performance of our Sales Representatives and our company's relationships with its customers but also for setting goals, providing resources for the sales staff, and maintaining the image our company wants to project. For me, building a solid sales team and strong relationships with our customers is key.

With my busy schedule, I often work long hours. Microsoft Dynamics business management solutions help me to account for both the sales team's progress on converting new leads to sales as well as our actual sales results. With up-to-the-minute data, Microsoft Dynamics CRM lets me respond to any sales concern, determine pricing policies, and track individual as well as team performance. Thanks to Microsoft Dynamics, I always know how well we are doing.

I am also the point of escalation for the customer service and sales teams. When I need to take a call from an unhappy customer and leave the person content, Microsoft Dynamics CRM provides me with a full account history and all the information that might help me in that conversation.

Michael, an Account Manager

As an Account Manager, I am responsible for maintaining the relationship with existing customers and for providing customer service, and Microsoft Dynamics CRM is crucial for me to do my job well. If a customer has a question, I only have to go to one place to get the history of both the customer and the deal. I'm also responsible for the overall customer experience. With a complete customer record, nothing falls through the cracks. This lets me provide the kind of experience our customers want—and expect.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM lets me stay focused on growing the accounts because it's easy to keep records of all my contacts and activities. I don't have to work to remember what I said to the customer the last time we spoke; it's all in the customer record.

Processes

The Sales team is at the front line of your company. You must be able to accurately gauge their performance as well as effectively plan, execute, and take advantage of sales opportunities. Microsoft Dynamics CRM lets you view, manage, and track the work of your Sales team, see how fast the Sales team converts new leads to prospects and sales, and evaluate performance changes over time.

Qualifying leads and closing the deal. Extensive research, effort, and time are necessary to maintain customers, manage a team, and qualify sales leads. Sales Managers rely on key sales information, such as staff performance data, budget and expense information, and product pricing, as well as information on potential customers, including intelligence that helps determine a customer's market and financial position. The contact and opportunity management features in Microsoft Dynamics let you maintain detailed profiles of your sales contacts, move the sales process along, and pursue all actionable opportunities. And Microsoft Dynamics CRM offers integrated, flexible customer relationship management (CRM) tools that enable the tracking and reporting of sales results and events on customer accounts.

Easy access to data to improve sales processes. The Sales Manager must have up-to-the-minute business and industry data, and you must also be able to quickly and effectively access, share, and analyze that data. With Microsoft Dynamics CRM, you can document and manage your customers and prospects; create, view, revise, and distribute financial reports; and assign tasks to your team and ensure their completion. Microsoft Dynamics solutions maintain information from throughout the organization in a single repository, so you always have a complete view of factors that affect your business. And Microsoft Dynamics solutions work with and like other Microsoft products. For example, you can export and analyze data in Microsoft Office Excel, create reports in your preferred format, and make them available through business portals built on Microsoft SharePoint technology.

Microsoft Dynamics for the IT professional

Microsoft Dynamics for the IT professional
Reduce costs, connect systems, empower people, and deliver business results

IT teams are responsible for the computers, networks, and software applications that manage a company’s operations, track financial transactions, and enable people to communicate and collaborate throughout the company. Without a smooth flow of information through a company’s IT systems, operations would not be efficient or even possible in some cases. IT managers need to monitor the day-to-day health of complex systems while simultaneously tracking innovations in technology that might create competitive advantages.

People
Tim, an IT manager
As the IT manager, my job is to keep our company’s network and computers up and running and see to it that everyone has the information and tools they need to do their job. My goal is to select, deploy, and manage our company’s IT investments so they become strategic assets to help the company reach its business goals.

The obstacles I face include the fact that we have many departments using systems that aren’t connected, leading to data duplication and sometimes multiple versions of the “truth.” It’s not enough to keep machines and applications running; I have to make sure that critical information can move through these siloed systems and reach the right people at the right time.

Processes
Microsoft Dynamics ERP and CRM solutions make the job of connecting systems and exchanging information easier for IT professionals, and in many cases, it happens automatically. Microsoft Dynamics enables your end-users to access information by themselves, so IT professionals can concentrate on higher-value tasks.

Reduced costs. Microsoft Dynamics solutions are built on a standard Microsoft platform, which helps your company reduce costs. You may already use many of the supporting technologies, such as Windows Server, Microsoft SQL Server, or Windows SharePoint Services. If so, you won’t need special licensing or costly, time-consuming retraining to benefit from Microsoft Dynamics solutions.

Familiar user experience. Microsoft Dynamics solutions operate like other familiar Microsoft applications, such as Microsoft Office. The RoleTailored user interface provides access to the data and insights needed for individual roles or departments, making Microsoft Dynamics easier to learn and use and helping to reduce IT support requirements.

Responsive to change. With a flexible and standard architecture that takes advantage of Microsoft .NET components such as Windows Workflow Foundation, Microsoft Dynamics enables you to quickly and easily add features and update workflows to respond to changing business conditions. This helps ensure that your business software is adaptable to your changing business needs.

Simpler end-user reporting. Microsoft Dynamics helps make important business information more widely accessible in your organization, giving the right people access to the right information at the right time. By using Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies, you can provide straightforward access to information via a Web browser. And because Microsoft Dynamics is built to work with familiar Microsoft Office programs such as Outlook and Excel, your people can use familiar tools to perform additional analysis.

Flexible deployment. Microsoft Dynamics ERP and CRM solutions are available either on-premise or via a hosted model (partner-hosted or Microsoft-hosted in the case of Microsoft Dynamics CRM), providing you with flexible and cost-effective deployment options.
