This article lists cumulative updates which have been released for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018. A cumulative update is a cumulative set of files that includes all hotfixes and regulatory features that have been released for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018.

The Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 architecture comprises three core components as well as various additional tools and components. Use Dynamics NAV Setup to install all components.

The Dynamics NAV Three-Tier Architecture

For every deployment of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 you must install the core components, which are the three tiers that make up the Dynamics NAV architecture.

1. The RoleTailored client is the client tier, which includes a Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows client and a Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client.

   In addition to the RoleTailored client, Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 also supports additional client types, including web service clients and a NAS services client for programmatic access. For details on the various client types, see Client Types.

2. Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server is the middle or server tier, managing all business logic and communication.

3. SQL Server, augmented by Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018 database components, is the data tier.

   If you deploy Dynamics NAV in a multitenant deployment architecture, the data tier consists of an application database and one or more tenant databases.

Important

When you install Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2018, all components must be from the same version and build of Dynamics NAV for the software to run correctly.

You can have multiple instances of any of the core components in a production environment. The following diagram shows a simple installation with two Microsoft Dynamics NAV Windows clients and a Microsoft Dynamics NAV Web client connecting to a single Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server computer, which in turn connects to a computer with SQL Server and the Dynamics NAV database components.

Some common configurations are:

• All three components on the same computer. This is the configuration for a demo install, and is also typical for a development environment, so that a developer can work on Dynamics NAV applications without worrying about network connections and inter-component security. See Walkthrough: Installing the Demo Version.

• RoleTailored client and Microsoft Dynamics NAV Server on the same computer, data tier on a separate computer. This scenario is described in Walkthrough: Installing the Three Tiers On Two Computers.

• Each of the three tiers on a separate computer. This scenario is described in Walkthrough: Installing the Three Tiers on Three Computers.

Additional Components

In addition to the three core components, there are additional components that enhance or supplement the core components.

There is a ton of information coming out about what is new in the Dynamics NAV 2018 release. The most thorough piece I have been privy to is this Directions webinar, where Microsoft engineers reviewed all the changes. My summary follows.

Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2018 Web Client

Heavy R & D Continues

Microsoft has continued heavy investment in Dynamics NAV and NAV 2018 is no exception. We have been hearing for several months now that Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, Business Edition, Microsoft’s cloud ERP offering, will have all of the breadth of Dynamics NAV on premise functionality moving forward. This is the solution that will be getting a new name at some time in the future, likely by the second quarter of 2018. Dynamics NAV 2018 R2 is due for release this spring.

Application Changes

Jannik Bausager, Group Program Manager, reviewed the application changes for us.

Setup and Extension

Everything needed to set up Dynamics NAV 2018 for the first time is all in one place with assisted setup and wizards to make it very easy to get started. Manual setup requirements are provided in one place.

User Tasks

In each role center there is a user task queue to create system-wide tasks, assigned to any user, track due dates, create recurring tasks and gives user their own task list. Any overdue tasks are highlighted in red for easy identification of what needs attention.

Employee Ledger Entries

You can now create journal entries directly for employees. There is no longer a need to create vendors for employees. Only local currency is supported for this. You can also define the default posting group (account) for employees and access this information on the employee card. We can make payments to employees in the payments journal and apply payments to open employee entries in one shot, linking the payment to the employee journal and closing both. Further, one can easily correct mistakes with the “un-apply” payments option. Payment Suggestions provides a list of all outstanding employee payments. These capabilities are exposed through APIs, allowing ISV partners with expense management systems to use this new functionality.

Image Analyzer

In NAV 2017, machine learning was introduced for inventory and sales forecasting, as well as cash flow forecasting. NAV 2018 expands on these capabilities by using cognitive services so you can take a picture of people and products. For Contacts, it will automatically detect age and gender from photos. For Items, it will identify item category and attributes of an item from the picture including type and color. The Image Analyzer will by default only show the suggested item category and attributes with an 80% or higher confidence level, but you can select “View All” to see all suggestions, even those with low confidence. This setting can be modified in setup.

Dynamics 365 for Sales Integration

Integration with Dynamics 365 for Sales was introduced in previous versions. However, improvements have been made with a setup wizard for synchronizing Dynamics 365 for Sales (CRM) users with NAV 2018, guiding you through the coupling of users in both applications. Additionally, synchronization of the two applications now runs in the background.

You can also send a sales quote without having to set them up as a customer first. Sales orders from Dynamics 365 for Sales now can be created in Dynamics NAV automatically without manual intervention (no longer requires “commit” in Dynamics NAV).

Sync Vendors to OCR

OCR recognition is much better if you enable Kofax ICS within OCR service setup. It can recognize vendors that already exist in NAV when scanning invoices and purchase documents.

Additional Application Improvements

• Item charges. You can now distribute by volume and weight.
• Direct transfer orders. You no longer need to use an in-transit location.
• Update name based on VAT numbers in EU.
• Master data addresses for customers and vendors can be updated from sales and purchase documents (a notification surfaces asking if you wish to update the master data).
• Help search results now available along with in-product search.
• Automation of IC Outbox and IC Inbox. No longer need to manually send and receive.
• Bulk Invoicing. You can now select more.
• Posting Groups. Now providing suggestion of accounts when creating new posting groups.
• Print G/L register report with “show details” options, which will print descriptions from related posted document lines.
• New reports include Received, Not Invoiced Purchase Orders and Shipped, and Not Invoiced Sales Orders.
• Check printing. You can now print three checks per page.
• Payroll Import with QuickBooks.

Integration with Microsoft Flow, Power BI, and Microsoft Office

Chad Sogge GPM at Microsoft announced improved integration with Microsoft Flow, Power BI, and Office.

Microsoft Dynamics Nav 2018 Training

Microsoft Flow Embed Experience

Using the new connector, you can create, edit, and manage your Flows directly from Dynamics NAV 2018. You can even connect and monitor “non” Dynamics NAV data. It’s also easy to manage approvals as well as modify, notify, and update data automatically. Lastly, you can select which Microsoft Flow environment in which you want to work.

Power BI Reporting

Power BI reporting is now embedded in NAV 2018. The content packs have been updated to support the latest Power BI functionality with direct navigation to content packs within your organization as well as to the general public. Setup is easy with all necessary connection information available in a single page, and the connector has been updated.

Create Contact Interactions in Outlook

NAV 2018 boasts the work that has been done with the Outlook add-in, which now provides more features with contact interactions. You can now use NAV templates to create emails in Outlook and track those interactions on the contact card within NAV.

Preconfigured Excel Reports

Excel Reports that are now found in the ribbon menu are Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Cash Flow Statement, Retained Earnings Statement, Trial Balance, Aged Accounts Receivable, and Aged Accounts Receivable Excel reports.

Company Displayname

Company name is “burned into” the table names and changing the company display name throughout the system was cumbersome and time consuming. Now, when you key the new display name in the Companies table, it is perpetuated throughout the UI and reports instantly.

Report Preview

When previewing reports, you no longer need no need to install a pdf viewer to render the report in pdf format. This gives a much better experience for the user.

It is everywhere (all supported browsers, all supported mobile platforms), embedded (directly in the client, no need to download and install viewer apps), interactive (toolbar, mouse, keyboard, select and copy text, hyperlinks), and modern (a new foundation to continue to build on the report preview functionality).

PowerShell

The PowerShell cmdlets for server start / stop have been renamed. Now they are simply:

• Start-NAVServerInstance
• Stop-NAVServerInstance
• Restart-NAVServerInstance

There has also been a change of server properties:

• What
  • Dynamically change the amount of tasks that the server will process in parallel
  • Change the trace level to diagnose the performance issue
  • Will add more properties as needed
• Why
  • We should avoid stopping the service if we can
  • We can turn on further diagnostics on ‘problematic’ clusters for a limited period of time
• How
  • Server settings can be marked as dynamic allowing you to set them through management endpoint
  • Event is raised allowing the server to react to the change

Upgrade for Dynamics 365

The schema synchronization is now done with users online; Extensions’ costly uninstall and reinstall has been totally eliminated; per-tenant data upgrade can be done with other users online; upgrade can be done in a single transaction and rolls back on failure. The bottom line is that upgrades for customers using Dynamics 365 for Financials take less time.

Web Client Personalization

This is currently available for Dynamics 365 Financials and is coming soon for NAV 2018! You decide what you see and where in your role center. We’re talking drag and drop, sorting data how you see fit for your work, and even adding fields is easy and all preferences are saved to your personal user account.

Dynamics NAV 2018 Improvements for Developers and IT Professionals

Jasper Hedegaard Bojsen, Principal Program Manager at Microsoft, ran through the development environment changes for Dynamics NAV 2018. Jasper notes that not only is NAV 2018 the best on premises NAV version to date, it is also the stepping-stone to the cloud future and NAV Tenerife release this coming spring.

Integrating and Extending

Connected Apps connect another service with Dynamics 365 for Financials and Operations, for instance a third party payroll or eCommerce system with APIs. Add-On apps enrich the D365 functionality through Extensions 2.0, such as taxation applications. Embed apps provide an end-to-end solution for an industry or micro-vertical via Extensions 2.0, apps, etc. Fantastic four version.

NAV 2018 will offer a total of 44 APIs out of the box in the areas of company, finance, sales, purchasing, and reports. New APIs can be created as well. This means that you can create integrations to third- party systems without having NAV development experience.

Working with APIs is not new, it is just new to Dynamics NAV.

Extensions 2.0 and Modern Development

Even though we now have APIs, you can still extend Dynamics NAV from within the product. Extensions v2 are improved and will be portable to upcoming releases. You can make changes via the In-App Designer or Visual Studio Code. In most cases, you will likely be using both. Microsoft is making AL coding fun and productive. They also referenced the NAV Development Preview Anniversary Update on the Dynamics NAV Team Blog.

Investments here will prepare you for the cloud and Tenerife. C/SIDE will still be available, but look for it to be sunset in the future.

Extensions to the language include .NET replacements: Bt voyager 210 adsl driver.
