Customer Reviews:

Useful but scarce. Nice quality-price ratio.......2007-02-08

Maybe I was expecting something else. Examples are useful to get a big idea of possibilities. Explanations are short and clear, somewhat poor. Fair as a reference book. Good for consultants and sellers of MS Navision. Not as good for supply chain manager of one specific company implementing Navision. Very good price for what it is offered. Highly recommended to get first contact with the way MS Nav helps to manage the supply chain. Good appendix: useful to handle MS Nav terminology.

The leading world-famed guru in automation of business-processes Scott Hamilton shows us the tendencies and problems of ERP-market. May be he is not so popular as his colleagues - marketing and management experts. But the concept of ERP penetrated in our life not long ago and the professor Scott Hamilton has been investigating ERP10 years more than this term exists. His fundamental knowledge and large experience are priceless. And he is sharing them with the readers openly.

Microsoft Navision Help is better.......2006-01-18

This book is one of the worst IT books i have ever bought in my life. Clicking F1 from any form is better. This book is not worth and it isnt a guide for implementation

A "must have" for non Navision Experts.......2005-09-19

If you are a Navision Expert then this is not the right book for you. However, if you are planning an ERP change in your company and want to understand the basic principles behind Navision and how it can help you in day to day supply chain planning and execution, this is a must have. Scott is an expert in both Navision and making it understandable across the organization.

Know about MRP? Dont buy this book!.......2005-01-28

If you know anything about MRP or you have the instructions that come with Navision, then dont buy this book.
This is a lame rehash of basic instructions on what the individuial fields are and has little or no explination on how to put it all together.
It has no advnced ideas on how to improve the use of Navision.

Scott Hamilton has copied the help files on field names and then put them in a book. There are small sections on how a company may use a section, however these are around six lines of vague text, not of use to anyone.

Basicaly it is a dictionary. The help that come with Navision are of more use.

Unfortunatley I purchased this one, however you may benefit by looking elsewhere for another option.
