notification templates to deliver the value of the functionality quickly

Microsoft Navision Business Notification includes out-of-the box functionality, mainly to enhance your supply chain management. These are the six templates you receive:

§  Purchase order — Ensure Delivery of Goods: Send notifications to selected recipients—for example, your suppliers—to remind them of upcoming deliveries.

§  Purchase Order — Vendor Confirmation not Received: Send a notification to suppliers or recipients, when you have not received an order confirmation from them.

§  Purchase Order — Goods not Received from Vendor: Notify selected recipients, such as a supplier or someone in your company, when you have not received expected goods on the promised day.

§  Production Order — Production Delayed: Send notifications to selected recipients—for example, an account manager in your company—to inform them when production has not started on time or will end later than planned.

§  Inventory — Item Quantity Status: Control your inventory level. You can set up the system to send a notification to selected recipients, such as your supplier, when the quantity of a selected item has reached a defined level in your inventory.

§  Production BOM — Items Updated: Send a notification to your purchase manager or other recipients when a bill-of-material has been modified.
