Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017 Adds Cortana Intelligence

The addition of Cortana functionality is another example of Microsoft’s commitment to continuous improvement and development of Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017. This Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2017, is a robust business solution from Microsoft that continues to be enhanced which is quick to implement, easy to use and has the power to support your business ambitions. Dynamics NAV 2017 is so popular because of it’s powerful integration and simplicity. This latest release offers significant enhancements to the core application including new demand forecasting tools from Microsoft Cortana Intelligence.

4 Exciting Cortana Intelligence Benefits 

Built-in Cortana Intelligence takes advantage of historical data and improves your insights into your predicted sales, helping you manage your stock and respond to your customers. Based on the forecast, the Sales and Inventory extension helps create replenishment requests for vendors, saving you time.

You can be confident that you are working with the best predictions, because the system uses different machine learning algorithms and compares the results, returning the predictions with the highest quality. Cortana can help your company:

1. Predict Potential Sales - Manage your business effectively using the potential sales predictions from historical data.
2. Be Prepared of Expected Stock-Outs - Gain a clear overview of expected stock-outs, based on current inventory and predicted sales.
3. Select the Best Choice - Get the best predictions, because the system uses different machine learning algorithms and compares the results, returning the predictions with the highest quality.
4. Gain Transparency - View the accuracy for small and mid-sized businesses of each prediction and specify the quality you want, excluding the predictions that do not meet your specifications.

Furthermore, Partners can help customers find business-critical information hidden in their database using the Time Series Library generic API, which enables Microsoft Dynamics NAV developers to create their own functionality and bring machine learning to their solutions.
