Development Environment

You use the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Development Environment to develop Microsoft Dynamics NAV applications. This component, which was also an end user client in the earlier versions of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, was formerly known as the Classic Client.

When you open the development environment, the Object Designer opens, which gives you access to Microsoft Dynamics NAV objects. You can use the Object Designer to modify the application or to create new application areas.

You can also use the development environment to create and manage Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016 databases to create and manage Microsoft Dynamics NAV companies and to upload or change Microsoft Dynamics NAV licenses.
