Those planning for Upgrade – Some Important Information

Ashwini Tripathi

As per the roadmap which Microsoft has published for Business Central, it shows that the Business Central product name will be continued for future. It means there will not be a Dynamics NAV 2019.

BC Road-map

Looking at your investment in terms of license and annual BREP, it is sense able to upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, whether your solution is deployed in Cloud or on-premises.

Don’t take me wrong I don’t mean to say that Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Dynamics 365 for finance and operations, Business edition are now obsolete.

Microsoft is not closing support to these products, it is still available to them. Only any new updates to these solutions we cannot expect any more.

One important note: New customers will still be able to purchase Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 till 31st March 2019. Same concept of concurrent user license with starter/extended pack.

From 1st April new customers will not be able to license NAV 2018, but existing NAV customers using the solution can still be able to purchase additional licenses as per their requirements if any.

If you missed earlier post do check this Link also.

 

What had changed in license model for Dynamics 365 Business Central

 

One change that a major one is now no more Concurrent licenses, new license purchased will be for named user.

One user one license, however named user will be able to access the application from multiple devices.

As earlier starter & extended pack was available now it will be Essentials and Premium.

Stander version of Business Central is termed as Essentials while with additional modules Service and Manufacturing is termed as Premium.

When comes to licensing you are not allowed to mix and match essentials & premium licenses, it should be from either of them.

Where is Limited user? Don’t worry it have been taken care as Team Member License. Read access throughout the application and write access to maximum of three tables excluding General Ledger entries.

License can be purchased as Perpetual or Subscription basis.

Licenses for Business Central differ from Dynamics NAV licenses in several ways:

  • Dynamics NAV licenses are calculated from concurrent users, where multiple users can share a license. Business Central licenses, on the other hand, are calculated from named users
  • With Business Central it is no longer necessary to have a Starter Pack. As a minimum, you need a Premium or Essentials user
  • It is only possible to have either Premium or Essentials users in your license. You can purchase Teams Members for both Premium and Essentials licenses.

 

What deployment options are available?

  1. Perpetual License – On premises
  2. Perpetual License – Cloud
  3. Subscription License – On premises
  4. Subscription License – Cloud
  5. Software As A Service (SaaS)

 

When you can upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics Business Central?

 

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is now generally available worldwide for cloud, and on-premises deployments. However you can check if it is available for your country from your local partners.

Local Functionality in Dynamics 365 Business Central

You can go-ahead with upgrade planning whenever you want too. Just get in touch with your current ERP provider.

For free lancing upgrade/development tasks you can contact us too at KSD Consultancy Private Limited. We are taking new project booking till 31st March on our old price, could be fixed or hour basis, which ever suitable to you. You can save lot from your local partners cost.

 

What’s on offer for existing customers?

 

Customers up-to-date with their BREP can upgrade to Dynamics 365 Business Central on-premises using LMT Upgrade.

Due to change in licensing model in Business Central. Below you can see exchange rate from perpetual NAV concurrent license to Business Central named user licenses.

If you have purchased your Dynamics NAV with Perpetual Licencing before October 1, 2018, your current NAV licenses will be converted from:

  • One Full User in Extended Pack to two Premium users
  • One Full user to two Essentials users
  • One Limited user to one Team Member

In addition to the converting of licenses, the licensing setup is different. As mentioned, Dynamics NAV licenses are calculated from concurrent users, where multiple users can share a number of licenses. Business Central licenses, on the other hand, are calculated from named users. The total value of your current licenses will remain the same – even after the conversion.

For more details on Licensing please refer here, make sure you always check with latest version of documents or discuss with your partner for current effective offers.

License, NAV 2018, Tip & Tricks

Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 Licenses

Ashwini Tripathi

You have the choice of purchasing Microsoft Dynamics NAV licenses up front, or paying a monthly fee to a service provider.

Perpetual Licensing:

  • You pay affordable upfront starting price, rapid start tools and built in functionality.
  • You license the ERP Solution functionality, and access to that functionality is secured by licensing users.

 

Perpetual License Overview

Service Provider’s Subscription Licensing:

  • You have choice to keep the upfront cost to a minimum through a “per user per month” licensing fee.
  • This helps get started with a low initial cost while leveraging the built-in functionality and rapid start tools.

 

In both licensing models

You have the choice of two Concurrent-user types –

  1. Limited User (Full Read & Limited Write)
  2. Full User (Full Read & Full Write)

Option to give those users access to advanced functionality through the “Extended Pack.”

Starter and Extended Pack License Overview

Starter Pack (Base Pack – Required)

The Starter Pack offers for one price.

  • Core Financials
  • Distributions
  • Professional Services functionality
  • 3 Full User licenses/ Concurrent CALs included
  • Additional Software licenses may be required, like Server, SQL, Office 365, SharePoint. Additional Software must be licensed according to the applicable license terms.

For many businesses, this is the only license component required.

 

Extended Pack (Optional)

The Extended Pack enables customers to integrate core financials and distribution management with broader functionality extensions such as:

  • Manufacturing to support and control the manufacturing environment
  • Warehousing to manage the warehouse to support operations
  • The first three Full Users included in the Start Pack and coming users get to access to all of the incremental functionality.
  • Starter Pack is the prerequisite to the Extended Pack

 

Packaging of Functionality

A Microsoft Dynamics NAV customer can choose whether to deploy the Starter and Extended Pack through the

  • Microsoft Windows client for Microsoft Dynamics NAV
  • Web client for Microsoft Dynamics NAV
  • Microsoft Dynamics NAV Portal framework for Microsoft SharePoint (also known as the Microsoft Dynamics NAV SharePoint client)

All through the same User types.

Working with Partner Translation Toolkit

Ashwini Tripathi

In my earlier post I have given the overview of Managing Multilanguage support in Navision continuing from same today I will discuss about how to create Language Module for the Languages not available from Microsoft.

Although still we will not be having direct support for all Languages but using this process you can create one.

To be very fair it will not be easy task for all Languages but for few it could help you much to get you work done with little ease.

See few helpful links which will help you getting done your task:-

Platform strings maintained in managed assemblies and fin.stx and fin.etx files

Configuring Microsoft Dynamics NAV Help Server

To work with Partner Translation Toolkit you will require below, make sure you have all before you start with using this Tool:

  1. Visual Studio
  2. WiX Toolset
  3. Microsoft Translator for ResX
  4. Azure Data Market account
  5. Microsoft Translator data service subscribed
  6. Your NAV License File
  7. Finally your efforts

Visual Studio:

If you don’t have make sure you install the latest version of the same.

WiX Toolset:

You will require the WiX Toolset to start with you can download from here. Install WiX Toolset version 3.8 or 3.9

PTT-1

Install the WiX Toolset according to the instructions. In my case it is already installed on my system so getting option for Uninstall.

Building the project you require that you have the WiX Toolset version 3.8 or 3.9 installed on the computer.

Microsoft Translator for ResX:

See my previous post for more details here.

Azure Data Market account / Microsoft Translator data service:

See my previous post for more details here.

Steps to get ready for Translation tool:

See my previous post for more details here. 

Let’s start with building our project:

Step -1:

Run the “Microsoft.MCSUK.RESXTranslator.exe” Tool

See my previous post for more details here.

Step -2:

Run the “Visual Studio” with opening project solution PartnerTranslations.sln

PTT-8

You will see all the projects discussed above is having their own folder in this solution.

Add your all the translated resx files obtained in Step-1 post Translation to respective projects.

PTT-9

Right click on the project folder and choose Add and then Existing Item.

Select the resx file which we translated in Step-1.

In my case I select “Common.Language.Lang.hi-IN.resx”

Similarly you will add these translated files to your all other projects. Be cautious few may have 2-3 files add them all.

PTT-10

The properties of the installation determine which folders are created during the installation of the language packs and what files are placed in the folders. The properties can be found in the Locals.wxi file located in the root directory of the translation kit. Open the Locals.wxi file and change the following properties:

• CountryRegionCode, to one of the country/region codes in Globals.wxi or create a new.

• ModuleLanguage, to the language of your choice.

• LocalLangFolder, to the .Net culture of the satellite assemblies.

• LocalIsoFolder, to the three letter ISO code for your language.

PTT-11

PTT-12

Step -3:

Build the project PartnerTranslations.sln

To build the PartnerTranslation solution from inside Visual Studio, choose Build Solution from the Build menu. This will pick up all translated artifacts, and create three installer files (.msi):

  • Server.msi – Located in the Server\Bin\Debug folder.
  • RTC.msi – Located in the RTC\Bin\Debug folder.
  • WebClient.msi – Located in the WebClient\Bin\Debug folder.

Step-4:

Copy your Language Module Files and install on desired Server & Client

PTT-13

Install – Add your language pack to the W1 version

If have not already done so, install the W1 version of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016 from the product media.

Install the new language Pack

Next, install the new language pack on the same computer. To do this, select and click each of the three .msi files listed below, one after the other. The order is not significant:

  • Server\Bin\Debug\Server.msi
  • RTC\Bin\Debug\RTC.msi
  • WebClient\Bin\Debug\WebClient.msi

Each installer quickly shows a dialog, which disappears when the installer has completed.

The language pack is now installed, but you must make some final configuration.

I will comeup with more details in my next posts.

 

Development Tips, License, Multitenancy, Server

Uploading License to Tenant in Multitenant Environment

Ashwini Tripathi

When we deploy solution for Multitenant Environment ever Tenant will be required a Separate License. Depending upon the License agreement with Microsoft every Tenant will either share same License or individual License.

Assume we are implementing Distributor Management System. Where every Tenant is a different Business entity linked with the Parent Group.

In this case the Server & Network is provided by the Parent Group and other Business group will share information but they will use their specific License to use the system, doesn’t matter who pays for fee.

In any case we need to upload License to each database in Multitenancy.
