About the technology
ERP core
Microsoft Dynamics NAV is an ERP system for finance, purchasing, sales, inventory, and operations. Companies use it to keep core business data in one place and to manage workflows across departments. In many teams it still appears under the older name Navision.
Typical work
- Finance and accounting workflows
- Inventory and warehouse processes
- Sales, purchasing, and order handling
- Report design and business logic changes
- Data migration from older NAV or related systems
NAV skills
Strong professionals know the NAV object model, AL or C/AL depending on the version, and the Microsoft ecosystem around it. They also understand permissions, posting logic, dimensions, and how custom code affects upgrades and audits. That mix matters more than generic ERP experience.
When to bring help
Companies usually look for freelance expertise when an upgrade is stuck, a partner left mid-project, or a process needs a precise change without breaking live operations. In Berlin, this often fits teams that work across local offices, remote stakeholders, and German-language finance or operations users.
Integrations
Dynamics NAV rarely stands alone. It often connects to CRM tools, e-commerce stores, shipping services, BI reporting, and document handling systems. Good specialists can trace data flows, fix interface errors, and keep custom integrations stable after version changes.
What to check
Look for clear documentation, safe testing habits, and direct experience with the same NAV version you run today. The best professionals explain trade-offs plainly, keep customizations lean, and know when to use standard functionality instead of adding more code.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about Microsoft Dynamics NAV? Start with the answers below.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV is used to run core ERP processes such as finance, purchasing, sales, inventory, and reporting. Many companies still rely on it as the system of record for daily operations. You will also hear it called Navision, especially in older projects.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV is the modern name that followed Navision in Microsoft’s product line. In practice, many companies and specialists still say Navision when they mean NAV. When hiring, it helps to use both names so the right people recognize the stack immediately.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV is the older on-premises ERP that many teams have customized heavily over time. Dynamics 365 Business Central is the newer cloud-focused direction, but the move is not always simple because extensions, data models, and integrations differ. A good specialist can tell you what can be upgraded and what needs rework.
A strong Microsoft Dynamics NAV specialist usually brings SQL knowledge, reporting skills, and solid business process understanding. Depending on the version, C/AL, AL, and Microsoft integration experience also matter. For projects with interfaces, API and data migration skills are often essential.
A Microsoft Dynamics NAV assignment can be small or complex, but it needs someone who has seen the same version and the same type of custom logic before. A simple report change is very different from an upgrade or a data migration. The more business-critical the system, the more you want proven hands-on work rather than theory.
Yes, Microsoft Dynamics NAV work is often done remotely, especially for analysis, customization, testing, and support. On-site time can still help during workshops, go-live periods, or when business users need close process mapping. In Berlin, hybrid collaboration is common when teams want both speed and direct communication.
Look for clear answers about your exact NAV version, the customization approach, and the risk around changes. A good Microsoft Dynamics NAV professional asks about posting routines, integrations, permissions, and testing before touching the system. They should also explain how they will document work so it is maintainable after the project.
The most common problems in Microsoft Dynamics NAV projects are undocumented customizations, weak data quality, and upgrades that are planned without enough testing. Interface issues and broken posting logic can also create hidden business risk. The right specialist spots these risks early and keeps the change scope controlled.
