Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 Business Essentials Edition includes these key features:
Role Centers
Microsoft Dynamics AX and the Enterprise Portal Framework provide RoleTailored access to data, reports, alerts and common tasks. You can personalize your Role Center to monitor and prioritize tasks based on business needs. Tasks are presented visually as document cues that provide information about the workload associated with each activity.
Unified Communications
Use presence information to collaborate easily with coworkers, business partners, vendors and customers whose data is maintained in your ERP system. Communicate by sending e-mail or starting an instant message or phone conversation from within Microsoft Dynamics AX.
User Interface
Quickly find what you need with simple navigation based on the familiar, intuitive interface of the Microsoft Office system.
Flexible Workflow
Use Window Workflow Foundation to create business rules and custom workflows — or use templates - to automate business processes.
Country-Specific Functionality
Expand functionality to help you comply with country-specific regulations.
Multi-Site Capabilities
Use the site inventory dimension across the system to support multi-site scenarios. Streamline multi-site management with the ability to define different costs, prices and cost category rates; set default financial dimensions for sales orders; control delivery dates in different time zones; and run master planning to view bills of material (BOM) items and route data by site dimension.
Business Intelligence
Select predefined performance indicators based on roles and monitor critical business processes in a dashboard view - all from within the Role Center. Ease report generation with predefined RoleTailored data cubes. Use predefined cubes to formulate effective business strategy, monitor performance and analyze results across your entire organization. Spot trends and opportunities faster by generating ad-hoc and analytical reports and then share and modify data by exporting to Microsoft Office Visio and Excel, with the ability to use PivotTable views.
Financial Management
Preauthorize credit card payments for sales orders. Use three-way matching for vendor invoices to invoice a purchase order by packing slip, save an invoice prior to posting, and enter miscellaneous charge codes that were not on the original purchase order.
Additional components for the Business Essentials Edition include:
- Human Resource Management Role Centers
- Integrated Organizational and Workforce Management
- Recruitment
- Absence Management
- Performance Management
- Compensation Management
