Summary:
The Microsoft Dynamics NAV paradigm shift of introducing the role based client and replacing the NAV Database Server option with the Microsoft SQL Server option requires new skills.
This course is specifically designed for MS Navision Partners, covering MS SQL fundamentals to performance optimisation & troubleshooting.
Intended Audience:
The intended audience for this course is partners wanting to learn how to troubleshoot and optimize the interface between NAV and SQL Server.



The class is targeted towards developers, consultants and implementers who need to understand the interface between NAV and SQL Server to be able to develop efficient customizations or maintain existing installations for optimal performance.
