Summary: Know about MRP? Dont buy this book!
Review: If you know anything about MRP or you have the instructions that come with Navision, then dont buy this book.
This is a lame rehash of basic instructions on what the individuial fields are and has little or no explination on how to put it all together.
It has no advnced ideas on how to improve the use of Navision.
Scott Hamilton has copied the help files on field names and then put them in a book. There are small sections on how a company may use a section, however these are around six lines of vague text, not of use to anyone.
Basicaly it is a dictionary. The help that come with Navision are of more use.
Unfortunatley I purchased this one, however you may benefit by looking elsewhere for another option.

Summary: An Indispensable Learning Tool
Review: This book is indispensable for all Navision manufacturing consultants and sales people...
I've bought copies for our clients and have told them that if they read this book thoroughly they too could become Navision manufacturing consultants. For the prospective Navision buyer it will help them understand just how effective the product will be for their company. A few hours invested by salespeople in reading this book could increase their bookings significantly. The case studies (never present in manuals) allow the concepts to come alive and stimulate us to understand how we can apply them to our own supply chain workplace. The concepts themselves are first placed in the book's framework and then explained in straightforward language free of sophomoric jargon. It offers a holistic view of the interrelationship of manufacturing, E-commerce, relationship management, service management and accounting. Manufacturing is seen not as an island unto itself but as just one of the many determinants of the entire DNA structure of the supply chain. We understand that what happens even in one part of the process will reverberate throughout the entire structure. Does a better job in explaining the Navision in several hundred pages than the lengthier manuals...Even manufacturing neophytes will come away with competency.

Summary: Missleading title
Review: To understand what ERP can do to support your business supply chain, you need to understand basic concepts which are clearly explained by the author.
I was disappointed not to find more focus on Navision as the book title lead me to believe. Occasional references are made to Navision but not enough to justify the character size of this title's last 3 words on the cover.
