Jobs

Manage each phase of your jobs and projects with flexible planning, budgeting, and accounting capabilities that help ensure business success every step of the way. Jobs in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 provides a single view of current and planned projects so you can understand the true costs of your projects and get an accurate and detailed view of profitability.

With Role Centers in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you can quickly access RoleTailored job and project performance data. From actual or planned costs and sales totals, you can easily analyze underlying details, all the way to the source, putting you in complete control. The Project Manager Role Center provides personalized access to the data, reports, alerts, and common tasks you need to work effectively and secure on-time and on-budget delivery of projects.

With powerful business intelligence capabilities, you can view key performance indicators (KPIs) on actual and budgeted sales and costs; run ad-hoc reports to calculate the value of work in progress (WIP) for accurate company financial statements; and export the data to Microsoft Office Excel® to easily share it with coworkers. With built-in tools, you can easily manage multiple job types, including projects based on time and materials, fixed price, and cost and time. Tight integration of job costs and consumption with the general ledger and item tracking help you understand the big-picture impact of each job decision.
