Set Up a Company With RapidStart Services for Microsoft Dynamics NAV

You can set up a new company in Microsoft Dynamics NAV with RapidStart Services for Microsoft Dynamics NAV. RapidStart Services is a tool designed to shorten deployment times, improve quality of implementation, introduce a repeatable approach to implementations, and enhance productivity by automating and simplifying recurring tasks.

RapidStart Services helps you gain an overview of the setup process of your new company by providing a worksheet in which you can set up the tables often involved in the configuration process of new companies. As you do this, you can create a questionnaire to guide your customers through the collection of setup information. Your customers have the option of using the questionnaire to set up application areas, or they can open the setup page directly and do the setup there. Most importantly, RapidStart Services helps you, as a customer, prepare the company with default setup data that you can fine-tune and customize. Lastly, when you use RapidStart Services, you can configure and migrate existing customer data, such as a list of customers or items, into the new company.

You can use the following components to speed the setup of a new company:

  • Configuration wizard

  • Configuration worksheet

  • Configuration packages

  • Configuration templates

  • Configuration questionnaire

You can find the tools in the RoleTailored client in the Application Setup area.
