Microsoft Dynamics NAV is a multi-lingual, multi-currency business management solution that organizations use to manage their accounts, supply chain, sales, payroll, and HR. It is an ERP tool for organizations that is fast to implement, easy to configure, and simple to use. It is widely used because simplicity is a part of its development, product design, usability, and implementation. This book will help you to master, analyze, and deliver the most challenging reporting requirements in Dynamics NAV 2015. The book starts by explaining report development and it's different phases such as data model, layout, and testing you go through. It introduces you to RDLC and the different controls in the toolbox, such as the Tablix, in its many forms. You will learn to use expressions to make your layout dynamic and to overcome typical problems. Moving on, the book will teach you to visualize data and be able to understand and read a report as it is intended. You will also learn to use Microsoft Word to create a layout for a report.

Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 Professional Reporting by Steven Renders.Excellent book that worth every penny.Switching from NAV Classic to NAV RTC report is not a easy job. This book give me a very solid information to start write reports in NAV RTC.I highly recommend this book if you want to learn or increase your NAV reporting skill.

Alain Krikilion Nov 13, 2015

Let the title NOT fool you! When I saw the title, I was immediately thinking: a book about how to write RDLC reports. After seeing the Table of Contents, I realized it is much more than that.Well, the title does NOT say it only about RDLC reports. Does it? No. It is about reporting in general.Who is this book for? Mostly for NAV Developers. But also for the everyone who works with NAV. Just to know what are the possibilities to do reporting with NAV. And most of these tools come for free! With these tools you can dazzle your customers with the beautiful reports you can create! And with some explanation, you can offload some report-creation to the customer too!The book starts with the first 7 chapters about RDLC reporting as expected. It starts with the basics and which each next chapter, it is going more in-depth. We see the basics, Tablix, Expressions, Data Visualization Techniques, Document Reports, Tips&Tricks, performance.With chapter 8 we Word Reporting and how to manage them.Chapter 9 had a lot of surprises for me with Power BI. I knew about Power BI, that the word "Power" isn’t there for nothing. But I was really surprised with all the "Powers" it has!Chapter 10 is about SQL Server Reporting Services. I have been studying that for a short time before RDLC was not it the NAV dictionary but stopped with it because I wouldn’t be using it in a short time, so I would forget it. Yes, SSRS (=SQL Server Reporting Services) uses RDLC too, but has a whole other range of possibilities that NAV RDLC reporting doesn’t have. There is the word "Service" in it! And no, I am not going deeper into this. I leave that up to you to discover.And then, the final chapter is about Charts in Dynamics NAV. We all know there are charts in NAV, but have you ever used them? Do you know how to use them? If no, than this chapter is for you!

I am a new NAV developer, and I have been watching Steven's videos and reading this book really helps me a lot. Thank you

I am a NAV developer who works with classic client and interested in learning the RTC version. My experience with RDLC reports has been pretty frustrating. I can say Steven Renders' book helped me to gain great deal of knowledge related to NAV RDLC reporting data-model and I feel more confident with the RDLC reports. The book actually gives more information that I expected (especially chapters 8, 9, 10 and 11). The screenshots in the book are exceptionally clear. I enjoyed the conversational narration with tips and warnings. I find it easy to read and examples are easy to apply in NAV.* Chapters# 1,2,3: I believe developers,like myself, who upgrade their skills will benefit the most from these chapters. Some examples were exemplary that I learnt stuff that I thought it was impossible to do in NAV. The book gives a good line of examples from simple report design to advanced row-column groupings with totaling and visually appealing reports with great, interesting tips and tricks.* Chapter 6,7 have plenty of good tips and design guidelines. I think the tips in this book are kind of tips and tricks that you can apply to most of your reports.* Chapter 4 (data-visualization techniques), Chapter 8 (Word-layouts) and Chapter 9 (Power BI): So far I have worked with classic client, excel reports and SOAP web services. I am not sure if I will work with Power BI but I really liked seeing the possibilities in RDLC reports. I'll probably come back to these chapters for a review.Overall, I definitely recommend this book to developers who struggle with the new report design in NAV and looking for a good start to learn it. If you are an expert in RDLC reporting and looking for reference related to Word Layouts, Power BI and Reporting Services, please check other users' comments.
