I need to know if it exists a QV template to connect to NAV and use the related tables in an efficient manner. Other BI vendors provide a specific accelerator for NAV applications.
I'm not only referring to connect to the SQL Server db for a NAV application but to connect and load data from a set of table organized by area or scope or other way. I repeat that other vendors have a specific accelerator to create a BI solution for NAV.
there is another NAV Connector "NAV2QLIK" for QlikView from QlikView Solution Provider prisma informatik GmbH located in Germany.
"The preparation and connection of ERP data from Microsoft Dynamics NAV into QlikView usually means a tedious and time consuming task to end users.
To simplify this process and to reduce the preparatory work to a minimum, prisma informatik has developed the NAV2Qlik Toolbox. On the part of users, neither profound QlikView knowledge nor elaborate support by the internal IT department is necessary during the ETL process. The NAV2Qlik Toolbox comes with the N2Q Script Generator, which generates the required QlikView Scripts for data modeling automatically. Further components are the N2Q Grouping Function and the N2Q Templates, which provide various options for interface design in QlikView.
Especially the customizations within their ERP data are particularly valuable for users of BI software. For this reason and unlike other connector solutions, NAV2Qlik delivers no pre-built script, but can generate the QlikView data model automatically direct from the specific NAV environment. That way, NAV2Qlik enables the transfer of any custom-built extensions and modifications within Microsoft Dynamics NAV - no matter how individualized the database is. A separate number range without modifying standard objects allows a conflict-free integration into the ERP environment."
