How to create custom module for Microsoft Navision

1.7k views Asked by At

I'm a .Net developer and I'm trying to figure out how is it possible to build custom module for Microsoft Navision. The Navision community seems to be be a small and close one. I didn't find a lot of informations except from the mibuso.com website.

  • Do you know other good source of informations ?

After some search it appears that there is two possible way to create custom module on an existing Navision installation:

  • Create dll that will be integrated in a way into Navision ? Any documentation ?
  • Create external web applications that will access Navision data through WebServices ?

Did someone have informations about that kind of development ?

You are right that open information on Nav development is rather scarce, and mibuso.com is probably the most active community you can find on the Internet. Development documentation is distributed mostly through the partnersource , but it requires a partner's account to access. Now a lot of documentation is published on msdn, so you could look there. It is not as rich as .NET library, still quite useful.
