Foreword

The history of the Dynamics NAV application started with a small accounting

product called "PC-Plus" back in 1984. The idea was to create an application suitable

for bookkeepers who had no knowledge of computers. It was done by copying

real life artifacts like paper journals, orders, and invoices and it even had a copy

of a Canon table calculator! "PC-Plus" was an overnight success – but soon a huge

demand for customizations and verticals started developing. After the "PC-Plus"

team developed a vertical for auto repair shops called "Auto-Plus", they realized

that if they had to create all the functionality themselves, their business would never

scale. Therefore, they got the idea to create a product including a base application

and a set of tools suitable for others to build exactly the functionality they wanted.

That was the start of Dynamics NAV as we know it today.

Over the years, the base application evolved. When "PC-Plus" was created, people

loved it for its core G/L functionality—but soon the same people wanted the

same simple solution to help run more of their business and eventually manage

their entire business. This meant that the Dynamics NAV application grew from

being all about inance management to cover manufacturing, distribution, service

management, projects and CRM and is today a fully-ledged ERP solution. Even

though the application has grown, it is still simple and consistent, which makes it

possible for a single developer to overview it, understand it, and build exactly the

necessary functionality.
