Spring 2014 | 5

What a fantastic year 2013 was for the Microsoft Dynamics AX User Group.

It was great to see the growth in AXUG®,, including events in Rome and

Barcelona, along with the successful launch of the AXUG Collaborate

site. With 2014 well under way, there is no shortage of great programs

for AXUG Members to participate in and gain valuable knowledge to enhance their use of

Microsoft Dynamics AX.

At the start of each year, there are always a few topics Members are talking about: budgets,

taxes, and forecasting the year ahead. So, with those items in mind, we decided to have the theme

of this issue be finance. While finance is a broad topic, you will find great content for not only the

many finance professionals who are AXUG Members, but also valuable content and updates for

those that aren’t ever mistaken as “bean counters.” (I think I can use that term, as I’m married to

one! ) The world of ERP software all started with accounting systems that were built to do more

than just finance, so this theme is a great way to level set the year of AXUG programs, taking us

back to the core in some instances, while at the same time looking to the future and all the new

and exciting ways Microsoft Dynamics AX can support your business objectives.

When it comes to topics such as budgets, taxes, and forecasting, AXUG provides many ways to

network and share experiences with other Users. The Finance, Internal Control & Compliance,

and BI and Reporting Special Interest Groups (SIG) are just one place where many finance

professionals are furthering their knowledge. If you haven’t checked out some of the finance-

related discussions on the AXUG Collaborate site at community.axug.com, you are missing out!

Of course, we have many great AXUG Premium Partners who host webinars and showcase their

products that also play vital roles to enhance your Microsoft Dynamics AX environment. Don’t

forget: all AXUG webinars are recorded, so you can play them back at your own leisure.

As we turn the calendar on a great year for AXUG, I want to personally thank the board

of advisors who provides great leadership for us. We reorganize a new board each year at

Convergence, so to the outgoing board members, a big thank you from me and the entire

Microsoft Dynamics AX community. In the past year we saw a record number of webinars

(147), 1,000 attendees at AXUG Summit in Tampa, and continued growth of AXUG outside

North America with User group day at Convergence EMEA in Barcelona. All of these great

achievements, plus the roll-out of the AXUG Collaborate site, took place under the direction

of the 2013-2014 AXUG board of advisors, leaving large shoes for the new board to fill!

I would be remiss if I didn’t quickly mention Convergence 2014 in Atlanta. If you happen

to be lucky enough to be reading this magazine while at Convergence and are not an AXUG

Member, I encourage you to get involved and join AXUG (www.axug.com/join-axug/). Stop

by the AXUG kiosk in the Microsoft Solutions Experience in the Expo Hall to learn more

about all the great benefits AXUG Premium membership has to offer you and your company.

Finance is just one of the many, many areas that Microsoft Dynamics AX Users just like you

meet to discuss and learn from each other. AXUG provides the best opportunity for you

and your company to maximize your investment in Microsoft Dynamics AX through the

objectives of listening, learning, and sharing. Join AXUG; you won’t be disappointed.

Here’s to a great Convergence!

Christian Gawronski

Tell us a little about Fluidigm.

Fluidigm (NASDAQ:FLDM) develops, manufactures, and markets

microfluidic systems to leading academic institutions, clinical laboratories,

and pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and agricultural biotechnology

companies in growth markets, such as single-cell genomics, applied

genotyping, and sample preparation for targeted resequencing.

Our single global instance of Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 currently

supports 42 Users worldwide. In order to take advantage of product

improvements, we may invest in an upgrade in 2014 or 2015.

What are you looking forward to as an AXUG Board Member?

As I am relatively new to Microsoft Dynamics AX  (two years), I am

interested in strengthening my relationships with other end Users and

decision makers to better understand how Microsoft Dynamics AX is

transforming their businesses.

AXUG® has two new faces on our board.

Please help us welcome Christian Gawronski and Paul Vaughan!

services manager for

Stupp Bros., Inc.

Paul Vaughan

Tell us a little about Stupp Bros.

Our company is in the steel fabrication business.  We produce steel

girders for bridges, oil and gas pipe, and beams and columns for commercial

buildings.

We have more than 100 licenses and 30 to 40 Users and upgraded to

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2 CU6 in early February, with plans to

upgrade another legal entity in March.

What are you looking forward to with board involvement?

I have always been impressed with how the board has constantly sought

to bring diversity and possibilities to Microsoft Dynamics AX Users.  I

experienced this with my very first AXUG Summit in Chicago and have

watched that evolve throughout the years. 

I look forward to continuing that growth and helping AXUG remain a

strong source for every Microsoft Dynamics AX User to turn to for the

assistance and collaboration needed to get the most out of their respective

implementations.

Swamy Narayana, principal PM lead,

has been with Microsoft for the last

six years, starting with development

for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 in

the financials area. He also leads the

development of the product’s public sector industry

solution and supports the Customers participating

in the Technology Adoption Program (TAP). AXUG®

sat down with Swamy to find out what he finds

most rewarding about his job, what his team did

in the financials area of Microsoft Dynamics AX

2012 R3, and his take on the greatest ROI Users

have with Microsoft Dynamics AX.

AXUG: What do you find most rewarding about

what you do?

Swamy Narayana (SN): As a program

management lead, I have a team that continues

to influence the product in many aspects. I love

getting feedback from Users as to how we can

impact them and their organizations, and I like to

see them delighted with what we have to offer.

AXUG: Your team has been very busy getting

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 ready for

general availability. What was your team’s

greatest contribution to that release?

SN: Right, we’re focused on releasing R3, and our

team was responsible for quite a few changes in the

budgeting area and accounting framework in this

next release.

AXUG: What can you tell us about the financial

changes in R3?

SN: R3 includes the features we did in CU6, CU7,

and more. One of the big things you will see is that

Management Reporter has become an integral part

of Microsoft Dynamics AX functionality. You will

see this in installation set-up components as well

as launching from Microsoft Dynamics AX. There

have been many improvements, such as default

report templates, side-by-side report layouts, and

availability in all languages, making it very useful

to all Users.

All areas within financials, GL, budgeting,

AP, AR, etc., have been enhanced in the last 12

months. This includes one feature that is a very

popular request/feedback item from Customers

and Partners: the elimination of multiple vouch-

ers when a product receipt for stocked items is

posted. This will help accountants and finance

managers to reconcile and identify accounts for

further review very easily. The other common

theme you will see across all areas is performance

improvements.

AXUG: How did you prioritize the list of what

would go into R3?

SN: We look at what we’re already building,

various feedback that comes from Customers

and prospects, and comments from Users via the

Connect tool.

There are three major sources for our product

backlog: feedback from Customers, issues we are

seeing through sustained engineering, and chang-

es happening in the market place or our competi-

tors. Once we have that list pulled together, we

prioritize where we’ll put our focus based on the

most value for our Customers without risking loss

of any current functionality.

AXUG: What kind of feedback are you receiving

from those in TAP?

SN: We showcase all of our enhancements

through webinars to participants of TAP. These

have had great feedback. For example, the Partners

and Customers are excited about the budgeting

functionality available in Microsoft Dynamics AX.

Previously, budgeting was dependent on third-

party providers, but now we have a product that

with other modules of Microsoft

Dynamics AX.

AXUG: What will your team be up to at

Convergence?

SN: We’ll have sessions on financials

and Management Reporter and will also

participate in AXUG sessions. We’re also

working on recruiting more Users for our

Customer Council so that we can reach out

to them periodically to get their feedback

on the product.

AXUG: After all of these improvements,

what do you feel is the greatest ROI for

a User with Microsoft Dynamics AX?

SN: They’re familiar with the User

interface and the technology stack we

use. Microsoft Dynamics AX is more

and more a complete solution for a larger

segment in the market. The improvements

in Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 and

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3 include

a lot of functionality that enterprise

Customers are used to, and we’re able to

provide that now with simplicity and cost-

effectiveness.

AXUG: What are you most looking

forward to with your team and

Microsoft Dynamics AX?

SN: I’m excited to be working on the

next release of the product that will

introduce the modern client and

technologies that our Customers expect

us to deliver on. I’d love to see more

Customers in our Customer Council

program to provide feedback and

validate our approach. AXUG

Whatever the goals are for implementing a warehouse

management system (WMS), many companies

and integrators fail to realize the importance of

including lean material flow principles as part

of their WMS implementations. Companies

implement a WMS with a variety of goals in mind. These can include

replacing a legacy or proprietary WMS, improving inbound and

outbound cycle times, increasing throughput, allowing for real-time

data and visibility, increasing productivity to achieve ROI results, and/

or a combination of these goals or others. Microsoft Dynamics AX

WMS now not only offers all of the above, but is also fully integrated

into the core Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP system, which removes

the need for any type of interface between systems.

Don’t Optimize a Bad Process

Everybody has heard the phrase, “Don’t optimize a bad process.”

This could never be truer than in a WMS implementation.

Implementing a WMS system is a substantial financial investment

in search of quality results. Time and time again, companies remain

inflexible in regards to reviewing storage media, warehouse layout,

process time studies, and even moving product to ensure proper

zoning of product with their WMS. With manual or automatic

suggested putaway logic, Microsoft Dynamics AX WMS allows for

the planning of the layout of product in your warehouse as well as

much additional functionality ripe for additional optimization.

The design phase of a WMS implementation should be based on

a future vision of the optimal processes for your distribution center

rather than the current process flows. The idea of configuring your

WMS around the way your operation is running today is an idea

that assumes that the current facility layout is optimal, SKU levels

will remain stagnant, and both your inbound and outbound order

profiles aren’t going to change over the next several years. This also

assumes that the current slotting in your facility is optimal and the

number of times you replenish forward pick locations is optimal.

With the ability for defined shipments, Microsoft Dynamics AX

WMS offers the opportunity for optimized replenishments and

picking routes.

Optimizing Processes

When thinking of optimizing future processes with a WMS, these

are five commonly overlooked areas:

» What is the five-year forecasted growth for the SKUs, velocity,

and cube in the current warehouse?

WHAT IT MEANS FOR WAREHOUSE OPTIMIZATION

2012AX

R3

MICROSOFTDYNAMICS

by Bruce Eicher and David Slater

12 | AXUG Magazine

Page 13: 2014 Spring - AXUG Magazine

» Is the warehouse slotted properly? Is the product located in the

correct location based on order profiles, and do the forward pick

locations have the proper capacity to accommodate an optimal

days on-hand quantity?

» Is there a clear understanding of order profiles both inbound

and outbound?

» Do I have the optimal material handling equipment?

» Can relocating product in the facility improve a process with

the implementation of a WMS such as Microsoft Dynamics AX

WMS?

The truth is, if you don’t know the answers to some or all of these

questions before your WMS design sessions begin, you’re leaving

savings on the table.

Understanding the Current Baseline

It is important to understand where you are today so that you can

strategically plan for your WMS future process. Gathering important

large sets of data items, such as outbound orders, inbound orders,

inventory snapshots, locations, and the item master data, is useful to

understand the correct baseline. The analysis of this data produces

several, often eye-opening, results for our Customers. These results

typically include:

» Outbound orders summarized by channel (e-Commerce, phone,

etc.)

» Delivery points by three-digit ZIP code

» Grouping of SKUs together by velocity by unit of measure

» Average units per line

» Order affinity for SKUs

» Ideal size of active/pick locations

» Determination of whether a fixed or dynamic pick location is the

best solution or a combination of the two

Additionally, it is important to document current processes in

detail and provide a time study for each activity. Until it is known

where employees spend their time through observations and time

studies, it is difficult to hone in on the pieces of that process that if

reduced, could make the overall process more efficient.

Let’s use a picking process flow as an example broken down by

the percentage of time a picker spends performing a task. In this

specific warehouse, the picker spends 52 percent of his time picking,

33 percent of his time traveling, and 12 percent of his time tearing

off carton tops. This is sample data from an “each” pick environment

with several hundred Users. A drop of a percentage point in any of

these areas will mean thousands of dollars of savings per year.

This particular Customer picked off of paper and required the

worker to remove box tops at the “each” pick face if the carton wasn’t

already open. If the company moved the removal of the box tops to

the replenishment activity, it would see increased overall savings in

picking.

Another procedural improvement that would result in significant

savings is to direct the User on the proper travel path. There are

lean components that can contribute to reducing the percentage of

travel the picker is performing. These components include slotting

optimization results from the material flow data study. Additionally,

setting up the proper pick sequence in the WMS can assist in

reducing travel.

Implement a WMS Along

with Lean Concepts

The picking example in the previous section is a simple example of

why a WMS won’t completely optimize your warehouse operations.

In that instance, a WMS will take the paper out of a picker’s hands,

direct the User to the next location, and require the User to scan the

location and/or item being picked. This alone will drive a certain

amount of savings. However, the WMS won’t be able to recognize

that the removal of the box tops should be a replenishment activity

instead of a picking activity. Additionally, the WMS won’t slot the

warehouse properly without some initial SKU and order analysis to

slot SKUs and create an optimal pick path.

Summary

A WMS such as Microsoft Dynamics AX WMS provides a systemic

set of instructions to the User which alone will drive a certain amount

of efficiency and tracking. However, without a proper slotting and

procedural analysis, the WMS that you thought would optimize

your entire warehouse can turn into a very expensive data collection

tool. In order to not leave money on the table during your WMS

implementation, perform a detailed slotting analysis and operational

analysis before the WMS functional design sessions. These lean

concepts will significantly increase your ROI when investing in a

WMS. AXUG

SQL Server Reporting –

Third-Party Tool

Is there anyone that has any experience using a third-party tool

for SQL Server Reporting that allows regular users (outside of IT) to

Freight Tracking in Microsoft

Dynamics AX

13 Replies

Hi everyone! I have a question regarding freight tracking within

Microsoft Dynamics AX. Has anyone integrated a third-party

solution for tracking freight? If so, what do you use? We would

like to be able to track things like weight, cost, misc. charges, load

utilization, premium freight, etc. We have discussed using a third-

party logistics company, which would give us access to some of this

information in their reports. However, I would prefer to be able to

track within Microsoft Dynamics AX.

Invoice Delivery –

Email, Fax, Regular Mail

12 Replies

We’re checking alternatives for invoice delivery from Microsoft

Dynamics AX.  Some of our customers are asking for email delivery,

some want invoices by fax, and many still want invoices by regular

mail. What are the best solutions for automating the distribution

among the different delivery methods?  Microsoft Dynamics AX print

management?   A custom solution?   We’re on Microsoft Dynamics

AX 2009, but Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 solutions may also be

applicable. Thanks.

Mass BOM Updates

11 Replies

I’m curious about something. I’ve only been working with

Microsoft Dynamics AX for about nine months. Part of my job is

BOM entry for new products. Sometimes we have a part number

change that may affect anywhere from 1-20,000 BOMs. If the number

is relatively small, I can do them manually. If the number is a huge

amount, however, we submit these to our IT dept for a mass update.

To even begin the latter, it requires a lot of planning and prioritizing.

So my question to you is this: Is there a way that I can change a single

part number across several BOMs at once without involving IT? And

if so, what about effective dates, op sequences, and so on? Any input

on this situation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Johnny Valentine | Propulsys

Security/Form Access by Roles

10 Replies

I’m brand new to Microsoft Dynamics AX, and the company I

work for is also just implementing Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012.

What I’ve been asked to look into is how to configure Microsoft

Dynamics AX to allow and disallow access to forms based on role. For

instance, we don’t want a purchasing manager to be allowed to work

with the Vendor Groups form under Setup on the Area Page, but we

do want the accounts payable manager to work with that form. Both

their profiles have the “Enable vendor process” duty attached which

contains a privilege named “Maintain vendor groups”. What I’ve been

able to figure out is I can modify the access level of the “Maintain

vendor groups” privilege to “No access”, and that will restrict the

Purchasing Manager from seeing the link on their Area Page, but this

access level change appears to be global and is also having the same

impact to the accounts payable manager.

Hopefully the example is clear as to what the issue is and what I’m

hoping to achieve. Just thinking aloud, but would something like this

situation require creating a new duty without the “Maintain vendor

group” privilege? Or can this be done through the AOT? Or can the

privilege itself be configured to apply with specific roles only?

Any help would be appreciated. Please let me know if further

details are required, and I’ll try to answer them.

Training for Microsoft Dynamics AX

2012 R2

10 Replies

As we are preparing to implement Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

R2, what is the best way for our internal team to learn the base

functionality of Microsoft Dynamics AX (out of the box with no

customization) and train our developers?  Our Partner will provide

training later during the assessment phase, but I would like our core

team to start understanding what is available prior to engaging the

Partner.

Has anyone located any training material that has been helpful

understanding Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2: Websites, printed

material, or even training classes? Are there any consulting firms that

have delivered exceptional training?

I am seeking power User training as well as training for the internal

development team. The development team members are .NET/C#

developers.

We are new to Microsoft Dynamics AX, so we have no experience

with the prior versions. During the sales cycle, for the most part,

they presented Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009; however, we opted to

implement Microsoft Dynamics 2012. We are an industrial distributor

with plans to implement the financials, warehouse management,

procurement, forecasting, and order processing (all modules related

to order to cash).

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 On

Hand Form – Performance

10 Replies

We are about a year into our implementation. At times (becoming

more frequent), the form can take minutes to load. It does not affect

all Users. When this happens, it does not always affect the same

group of Users. My role is not technical. I’m in the materials group.

Our technical people cannot explain or correct the issue. They have

reported it to our implementation Partner and Microsoft. No result

that I am aware of. Though intermittent, the condition appears to

becoming more frequent and widespread. This seriously impacts

productivity. Is this anything anyone else has heard of or experienced,

and is there a fix?

Production Orders – End

We have occasions where we end up completing a route card

journal where the entire quantity of the work order is put in as error. 

Microsoft Dynamics AX will not allow us to roll these orders to

Report as Finished or Ended.  Has anyone encountered this, and if so,

is there a workaround? Thanks, Julie

Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Shared

Global COA with Different Rules by

Legal Entity

9 Replies

Dear all, We are implementing the full ERP solution of Microsoft

Dynamics AX 2012, and as part of this, we would like to have a global

COA shared by all of our legal entities, but have different rules by

legal entity.  But we are encountering some challenges around this

topic.  Please see below:

Just as a quick summary of our challenge: We

would like to have a centralized COA shared by all of

our entities in our Microsoft Dynamics AX instance.

- But we would like to have different rules by entity - As of now

(information keeps changing), we are being told that if we share COA

for all entities, we have to create rules by ledger/main account, and

this rule for each ledger/main account has to be shared by all entities

(if they are using this ledger/main account).

So we are hoping to find a way to have a centralized shared COA

but be able to create different rules by entity. If anyone has had any

experience with this issue that could share how they overcame this

challenge, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Best regards;

Founded in 1989, I.B.I.S., Inc. provides

distributors and manufacturers with

next-generation supply chain solutions to

maximize their profitability. A winning

combination of industry and supply

chain expertise, world-class supply chain software

developed in partnership with distributors and

manufacturers, and 25 years of successful Microsoft

Dynamics implementations has culminated in

making I.B.I.S., Inc. a preferred Microsoft Dynamics

Partner and solution provider for distributors and

manufacturers worldwide.

AXUG: Tell us a little bit about your company.

Dominic Telaro (DT): I.B.I.S. has been around

for 25 years, starting with Great Plains and then

with Microsoft. We have been a Gold Partner

and Partner of the Year, and we’ve built our VAR

business with Microsoft Dynamics GP, Microsoft

Dynamics AX, and Microsoft Dynamics CRM.

Our background is in distribution and

manufacturing, so the majority of our practice

focuses on Microsoft Dynamics AX and Microsoft

Dynamics GP. We also have a strong SharePoint® and

Microsoft Dynamics CRM presence, which provides

a complete Microsoft experience for our Customers.

AXUG: What do you offer Microsoft Dynamics

AX Users?

DT: In addition to our expertise in selling and

implementing Microsoft Dynamics AX, we are also

familiar with the ISV side of things. Just six months

ago, we were named a Global Distribution and Supply

Chain ISV by Microsoft for our Advanced Supply

Chain Software. Understanding the Microsoft

requirements for coding, efficiency, integration, and

more really sets us apart and helps us provide the

very best for Microsoft Dynamics AX Users.

AXUG: How is I.B.I.S. improving Microsoft

Dynamics AX for distributors?

DT: Microsoft Dynamics AX is a great product

for manufacturing, retail, and government, but

the distribution side of things hadn’t been paid

enough attention until just recently. Distributors

buying Microsoft Dynamics AX had to buy more

software, make expensive customizations, and

create workarounds to get the functionality they

needed. As a global ISV, I.B.I.S. is building that

green field area of the distribution supply chain

and is dedicated to proper product development

and meeting Microsoft requirements, so that

Microsoft Dynamics AX Users don’t need to

miss out on important supply chain functionality.

With our software and expertise, Users can now

expect more functionality enhancements that tie

the whole business together, from the board room

(planning) to the warehouse (operations).

In summary, I.B.I.S. is helping develop Microsoft

Dynamics AX for distribution and in turn, helping

Microsoft Dynamics AX Users and Partners run

their businesses to meet margins and objectives.

The efficiency and profitability of our Users are

the most important things and are the true driving

force for us every day.

AXUG: What have you found valuable in AXUG

interactions?

DT: I attended AXUG Summit last year and

absolutely LOVED getting in touch with Microsoft

Dynamics AX Users. It was a pleasure talking to

Users and seeing the excitement on their faces

when they saw the functionality we had created

for Microsoft Dynamics AX. Understanding how

Users made the system work without our software

was also invaluable. We can always sit down with

consultants, industry experts, and our Customer

advisory board, but without a direct look into how

the User sees things, we can’t create a product

that hits every mark. Thanks to AXUG Summit

and the Regional Chapter events, we can expand

our offering to provide everything Microsoft

Dynamics AX Users need. AXUG

While many consider Management Reporter (MR) to be a new product, Microsoft actually

began its development in 2004. The original version of MR was released as part of the

Microsoft Office PerformancePoint Server business intelligence suite in late 2007, with plans

for a separate release to Microsoft Dynamics ERP. Microsoft shelved PerformancePoint

Server in 2009 but continued with the release of MR (V2) to the Microsoft Dynamics AX

community as a replacement for Microsoft FRx. In actuality, MR was always intended to take over the reins

of Microsoft FRx, as is evidenced by the many similarities in the two products. The early versions struggled

to match the capability of Microsoft FRx in some areas, however the current version, Management Reporter

2012, has been on the fast track with frequent updates since its May 2012 release and is seen by many new

Check Your Work!

While MR has enhanced features to

allow you to find missing or duplicate

accounts in your reports, it is always

a good idea to be proactive to prevent

inaccuracies in your financial reports. Try

adding a (non-printing) check row at the

bottom of your income statement Row

Definitions. The row should include a

range that encompasses all P&L accounts

in the Link to Financial Dimensions

column. Add a calculated row (OUT OF

BALANCE) below it that will subtract your

check row balance from your Net Income.

If the balances match, you are golden. If

not, you may need to update your report to

include a newly added account or remove

a duplicate. As a further suggestion, assign

a BOLD or RED font style to your OUT

OF BALANCE row to make it pop when

there is a discrepancy in the report. If

the row displays a zero balance, it will be

suppressed and will not be visible when

viewing the generated report.

A Star is Born

In Microsoft FRx, when dealing with

dimensions that have IDs of different

lengths, it was necessary to use multiple

wildcards (???) to bring those together in

one row. This was difficult and sometimes

didn’t produce the desired results. In MR,

you can still utilize the (?) as a wildcard as

you have before, but you also have the option

to use an asterisk (*). For example, if you

have accounts that can be either four or five

characters in length, and you want to display

all accounts that begin with 4, you can use

4* in your “Link to Financial Dimensions”

column to display all accounts beginning

with 4, regardless of the length of the ID.

Drill-Back to

Microsoft Dynamics AX

Drilling back to Microsoft Dynamics

AX from MR takes your report analysis

to another level. When viewing a report

in MR Report Viewer, drill down to the

account level and select the balance (actual

We asked AXUG® Members to weigh in on the biggest challenge their departments face due to all the regulatory changes in the past year.

1 | Andy SnookFastpath, [email protected]

One of the biggest challenges we have seen this year surrounds

the renewed focus on manual journal entries.  Because they have

an immediate impact on financials and are susceptible to data

entry errors, these entries present a high risk for companies. 

In order to mitigate this risk, companies need to review these

transactions on a periodic basis.  Identifying, extracting, and

reviewing this data can be extremely time-consuming, and

intensive.  In order to assist our Customers with this challenge,

we developed an analytics tool that simplifies identifying

potential issues with manual journal entries.  Our Customers

have the confidence they are getting visibility into the right data

and a repeatable process they can use going forward.

2 | Brian CatesCopper State Bolt & Nut [email protected] than 300 Users running Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009

As a privately-held company, we aren’t as susceptible to some of

the regulatory issues public companies may face, though we have

certainly addressed such challenges as the capital lease versus

operating lease requirements, GAAP level reporting versus

management/internal reporting, and coordination with our CPA

auditors.  At Copper State, we’ve consolidated four companies

into one reporting entity, which isn’t so much a challenge induced

by regulatory changes, but by our own operational needs.

3 | Richard DraperAXMentor [email protected]

Our solutions architect, who is a finance specialist, has the

perspective that compliance and transfer pricing (in Europe) are

the biggest challenges. AXUG

Jet Reports has been providing solutions for

business intelligence (BI) and reporting in the

Microsoft Dynamics market for 12 years. The

organization has more than 10,000 Customers

around the world, which helps to demonstrate

the level of testing, functionality, and stability

that comes with its products’ performance.

AXUG: BI is definitely a topic of discussion

these days. What’s a misconception people have

about BI?

Jonathan Oesch (JO): People tend to think of

business intelligence in terms of it being a piece of

software or a technology – and it’s really not. It’s

not a tool, a framework, or even a platform.

BI and reporting are a way to engage with data

and tell a story, which then helps an organization

figure out what to do in their business. The data

is sitting there, waiting to give answers to your

questions. It’s sitting there, yes, but it’s probably in

an ERP or other system where the data structure is

unfit for human consumption. The challenge is to

change the structure of that data in such a way that

the average business User can make sense of it.

I also believe that BI and reporting are not ERP.

ERP – or any source system of data – is meant

to enforce a process on data intake and build a

workflow around the things that a company does.

Those rules of doing business, that process, that

workflow, it’s a fairly static thing; it’s something an

organization needs to think about and carefully

consider because it will live in that format for a long

time. BI is different. Data that ends up in a BI system

helps an organization figure out what to do with

the dynamic parts of its business: How are sales

trending? What is driving that? How does that affect

inventory costs? How do salespeople, vendors, and

warehouse locations all contribute to the mix? BI

needs to be nimble to react to the changes that will

inevitably hit every company over time.

AXUG: How does your flagship product, Jet

Enterprise, help Users be nimble?

JO: Jet Enterprise is a combination of a financial

reporting tool and a BI environment. The strength

of our offering is the ability for us to take a User’s

data – in whatever format it exists – and very

quickly configure it in a way that allows the User to

run his/her business. We really see BI and reporting

as a data management challenge. Can you combine

all the data sources you own? Can you organize

it in the way that makes the most sense to your

company? Simply put, we approach the challenge

with the mindset of this: How effective can we

make you at using your data? Speed is important

to us, too – none of this is of any use if it takes

forever to deliver.

AXUG: What’s the implementation process like?

JO: That is a touchy topic because delivery is where

I think BI gets its black eyes. We’ve all heard those

nightmare stories about the implementation that

took 18 months and went way over budget. The key

differentiator between us and our competitors is

our thoughts around implementation. Our whole

goal is to minimize the risk that occurs within a BI

deployment over time. Most people come in and

do a scoping exercise, and then go off and build the

product that they think they heard the company

describe. This doesn’t work with BI because when

you come back six months later, finally ready to

implement, the User’s business may have changed,

and what was right six months ago may not be

relevant now.

We work with our Partners on our methodology,

which treats BI like an Agile software development

project. They come in and conduct an exercise to

see what people do in their jobs and how they’d

use the software – if you know Agile then you’ll

recognize this as a “User story”. From those stories

we develop a ranked list of priorities from the

organization.

When we have that list of priorities, we look

at #1 and determine the amount of time it will

take to develop. We then build that first piece and

deliver it in a way that can be used by the business

immediately. Then we start on the new priority #1,

and you would be amazed at how often the order of

the priorities on the list gets shuffled in the process.

“When we were evaluating options for BI, our main criteria was ease of use for

the technical team and time-to-value for the business. Jet Enterprise gave us

the ability to make sense of the data in our Microsoft Dynamics AX system in a

surprisingly short period of time. I now have the dashboards and reports that I

need to drive the business daily.”

– John Bauersfeld, vice president sales & marketing, Ariens Company

Doing this means that the client is getting individual items of value

that they can start to use right away. We like to say that we deliver fast

and deliver often. It’s a really flexible way to do it instead of locking

people in to what they asked for a long time ago.

AXUG: This is a very different way to look at a project! When did

you start this methodology?

JO: In 2007 or so when the “Agile” method of software development

came into vogue, we realized it was a powerful way to build software,

giving a ton of visibility and flexibility into the project. It made so

much sense on the development side of our business that we started

to implement that process with our Partners – the people that bring

our software to the Microsoft Dynamics AX community. We are now

at a point where our Partners can deliver BI environments in a very

rapid, very usable manner to their Customers.

AXUG: What’s the biggest obstacle for Microsoft Dynamics AX

Users regarding BI and reporting?

JO: There are two main things. Microsoft Dynamics AX is a fantastic

tool, and one of the reasons it’s so strong is how it normalizes the data:

splitting it up into a seemingly endless array of tables and fields. This

provides the flexibility to wrap the application around your business

instead of the other way around. But, if you’re somebody who has

to consume data, you don’t want to look through all the thousands

of data points sitting in thousands of tables and fields to get to what

you need. It’s an overwhelming challenge for 99 percent of the data

consumers out there.

There’s also the philosophical challenge of how an organization

decides what data is most important and how they’re going to use it.

The first one is easy to solve; that’s what our product does. The

hard part is getting an organization to agree on what business terms

they’ll use, how to calculate certain metrics, and which hierarchies to

put their data in. BI is less about technology and more about people,

process, and methodology. To get all three to work together takes

extreme communication and good planning. It’s not that people can’t

do that, but more that they don’t understand how important it is. As

soon as they realize the importance, maybe after a problem within

their organization arises, the light bulb goes off, and they understand

that a working BI environment is not something you can just throw

a piece of software at and expect it to work. Once that realization

occurs, everything becomes smoother.

AXUG: What is your organization focused on for future

innovation?

JO: Jet Mobile. We have a suite of mobile solutions coming out that

will deliver data in a way that Users want and need to consume it. For

example, if a User is looking at data on a laptop in a hotel room, it will

need to be displayed differently than if he/she were using an iPad on

an airplane or a mobile phone on a golf course.

We have solutions coming to display and distribute that information

differently depending on what Users are viewing it on and how they

want to see it.

AXUG: What do you like most about the Microsoft Dynamics AX

community?

JO: The vibrancy of the people. Every time I go to Convergence or

an AXUG Summit, I’m super impressed by the way people show up,

ready to learn. I see it again and again, people coming to town willing

to learn and change. I saw it again last year in Tampa, people came

to the conference ready to learn and to trade ideas. Then they leave

eager to bring that knowledge back to the office. I’ve worked with

other ERPs in the past, and it’s just not the same there. AXUG

Page 34: 2014 Spring - AXUG Magazine

On new budget implementations, I most often walk into a situation

where a budget administrator has pushed Microsoft Excel® to its

limits for budgeting: There will be 50 budget managers that all get

their own Excel budget templates. The budget administrator has to

make all of these budget templates and email them out to the budget

managers, and all the managers inexplicably keep their Excel files

until the day of the budget deadline before finishing anything.

Managing that type of situation is a budgeting nightmare for anyone

assigned the arduous task of managing a budget. Inevitably, all the

other budgeting-with-Excel hurdles come with that same situation:

Changes to budget templates require new Excel files to be emailed to all

budget managers; all of the Excel budget files have to be consolidated

into a single budget file; revisions to the budget require new Excel files

emailed out to the budget managers; headache after headache after

headache. This is why I have been implementing Microsoft Forecaster

for clients for more than 10 years and still appreciate the control and

flexibility that it provides as a budgeting solution.

I have clients that email a notice to their budget managers that

their budget input screens are available in Microsoft Forecaster, and

So You’ve Outgrown Budgeting in Excelby Noah Moseley

that they have one month to input their budget numbers and submit

them for review. Their budget managers log into Microsoft Forecaster

using a Microsoft Forecaster web page, select their input screen for

their department or departments, enter their balances, and save the

screen. The budget managers can come back later and change those

numbers or add to those numbers at any time. Each time they save

the web page, their balances are stored in the Microsoft Forecaster

budget database and posted to the same account numbers used

in their accounting system for actuals. At some point, the budget

managers log into Microsoft Forecaster and submit their budget for

review using Microsoft Forecaster’s built-in workflow option which

sends an email to the next manager letting him/her know that the

submitted numbers are ready for review. The next manager will then

review the balances and approve or reject that department’s budget.

The entire time, the budget administrator can log into Microsoft

Forecaster and check the status (in progress, submitted, approved, or

rejected) for everyone involved in the budget process for the entire

company…all on one screen.

Once the budget deadline arrives, the budget administrator sets

t t&TIPS & TRICKS

34 | AXUG Magazine

Page 35: 2014 Spring - AXUG Magazine

everyone’s access to read-only and gets ready for the budget review

process. The budget administrator does not have to worry about

combining everyone’s budget numbers into a single consolidated

budget. That was done automatically by Microsoft Forecaster every

time a budget manager clicked the save button on his/her input

screens. In fact, the budget administrator can check the consolidated

budget in Microsoft Forecaster at any point during the input process;

there is no waiting for files to be emailed back and then consolidated.

Microsoft Forecaster has done all of that work for them using roll-up

definitions for all of the dimension, segment, and account codes.

On top of this, Microsoft Forecaster comes with a lot of other

great features to make budgeting easier. The solution has detail input

screens to handle budgeting for payroll, new assets, and revenue.

These come with any installation and are optional to set up, but most

budget managers find them very useful. Allocations can be defined to

spread budget balances across multiple segments or departments, and

they process in seconds. Budgets can be input as local currencies and

automatically converted to a reporting currency each time a budget

manager clicks “save”. And changes to input screen calculations or

accounts are easily rolled down to budget managers using Microsoft

Forecaster’s web page input screens.

If you are dreading your budget process using Excel, seriously

consider switching to Microsoft Forecaster. It is a purpose-built

application for budgeting intended to solve the problems that come

from outgrowing Excel. And if you’ve just finished a budget in Excel,

now is the perfect time to get Microsoft Forecaster set up while the

budget process is fresh on your mind. Check your Microsoft licenses –

you may already own plenty of User licenses for Microsoft Forecaster

and simply need to get it set up. I’ll be glad to talk with you about

it; email me at [email protected]. For Partner firms,

I am available as a resource if you do not have in-house Microsoft

Forecaster experts and you have clients in need of a budgeting

solution. AXUG

For several years, the Minnesota Chapter of AXUG® has made an

annual trip to the Fargo, North Dakota campus of Microsoft. It is a

trip that everyone looks forward to and is not limited to Minnesota

Chapter Members – all AXUG Members are welcome!  Th is year

we met for two days of sessions and networking in mid-September.

Th ere were more than 80 Microsoft Dynamics AX Users in

attendance – the largest turnout we’ve had to date.  Outside of

AXUG Summit, this was the largest AXUG-sponsored event of

the year.  Microsoft did an outstanding job of hosting us at their

Executive Briefi ng Center on the Fargo campus.  Lunches were

included, and we enjoyed a reception with dinner one night.

Because we met at the Fargo campus, many Microsoft Dynamics

AX engineers and product managers were available to give us a

number of excellent presentations. Th e presentations were divided

into two tracks: technical and functional.  In all, there were more

than 20 presentations given by Microsoft and Partners on a large

Wolters Kluwer, CCH is a

leading global provider of

tax, accounting, and audit

information, software, and

services. It has served tax,

accounting, and business professionals since 1913

and celebrated 100 years of serving Customers last

year. The company is dedicated to providing the

most relevant feature set on the market for sales

and use tax solutions, backed by the most respected

subject-matter authority on tax.

AXUG: Commerce Clearing House (CCH) has

been around for 100 years. How have you

evolved since 1913?

David Kelly (DK): CCH came to be when income

tax started in the U.S., publishing research that

reported changes in business law and taxation.

Wolters Kluwer purchased CCH in the ’90s, which

allowed for the seamless transition into serving the

corporate market with sales and use tax services

and solutions.

Starting as a research company known for

producing the most up-to-date tax publications,

it makes sense we transitioned with the times to

create integrated compliance software and services

to meet the exact needs of businesses. So, we have

committed to moving forward with developing

advanced technology in addition to offering those

publications that corporations and accounting

professionals use daily.

AXUG: What type of solutions do you offer

Microsoft Dynamics AX Users?

DK: Our solutions for Microsoft Dynamics AX,

Sales Tax Office and Sales Tax SaaS, streamline

the front-end (sales and use tax calculations at the

transaction level) and back-end (sales and use tax

return remittance and disbursement) to managing

either process on-premise or in the cloud.

When it comes down to it, tax law changes

frequently, and companies need faster and

more accurate information. We touch on three

components with our software and services that

help make that a reality:

Content: Content drives it all. Companies

need to have accurate information and precise

calculation. It is important they know where they

are getting their data. If data isn’t updated and/

or isn’t being provided by a reliable source, then a

company can be in trouble.

Compliance: Staying in compliance regarding

sales and use tax is a tedious and ongoing process,

but Wolters Kluwer offers a turnkey compliance

service that ensures tax returns are remitted

accurately and timely.

Consulting: In addition to making solutions

work for content and compliance, we offer

consulting services that walk our clients through

the most complicated processes.

AXUG: What type of companies benefit most

from your solutions?

DK: Tax is very complicated and ever-changing.

Being actively involved in the events

year-round and developing relationships along

the way has made me really love the

Microsoft Dynamics community.

There are always changes in tax law, and for any company, this can

become a huge headache. We work closely with manufacturers,

distributors, retailers, professional services, rental companies, you

name it – but taxes do affect us all.

AXUG: Why is Wolters Kluwer, CCH the right company to work

with when dealing with the ever-changing, complicated tax

world?

DK: Our biggest differentiator is that we have a dedicated team of

full-time researchers in-house that keep up with the changes in sales

and use tax. This expertise is available in-house and therefore, relayed

to our internal development teams so we can create the best tax

software out there today. Our customers can feel comfortable with

us because we can – and do – live up to our motto, “When you have

to be right.”

AXUG: What do Microsoft Dynamics AX Users love most about

your solutions?

DK: We are literally a one-stop shop where clients can easily find

answers to their questions. From taxability research to development

to professional services to support, we have your back. We even offer

specialty services, such as when you know you’re not collecting tax

correctly and want to divulge that information to become compliant

or if you’re breaking into a new vertical and need taxability research

studies conducted for quality information.

AXUG: What does Wolters Kluwer, CCH have in store for

Microsoft Dynamics AX Users in 2014?

DK: We’re excited to be releasing a new product for Microsoft

Dynamics AX called SureTax. This is specific to the telecom and

utility industries where taxation is extremely complex. We are one

of only three companies that provides content and calculations for

this industry, and being able to provide it at such a granular level is a

strength we are very proud of. We will be sharing more information

about this release at Convergence Atlanta.

AXUG: What do you like most about working with the Microsoft

Dynamics AX community?

DK: Being actively involved in the events year-round and developing

relationships along the way has made me really love the Microsoft

Dynamics community. It is extremely engaged and willing to work

together to grow Microsoft Dynamics offerings. I always get a great

reception from this community, and I am excited to see what’s around

the corner in 2014! AXUG
