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!

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!
enterprise information
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-

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
» 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

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.

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?

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
adopters as a true upgrade from Microsoft FRx.
Several of the benefits of moving to MR from Microsoft FRx are listed below. These are just some highlights;
there are many more benefits, and Microsoft continues to add new functionality with each update, so the gap
will continue to widen. So, if you have been putting off upgrading to MR, now may be the time.
Updated Architecture
» Microsoft .NET and C# with SQL Server Integration
» Support for Native 64-bit and current operating systems
» Security: Windows authentication across multiple applications with secure access to reports, report
folders, and dimension data
Improved Collaboration and Report Distribution Capabilities
» Organize building blocks and reports in folders
» Attach comments to generated reports that are visible to other Users
» View previously generated report versions
» Display charts and graphs for improved data analysis; add logos and graphics to reports
» Group multiple reports to run independently on a pre-defined schedule
» Provide secure access to reports via the report library, web access, and SharePoint
» Email reports via SharePoint or as a URL link
Enhanced Integration with Microsoft Dynamics AX
» Automatically integrate company information from Microsoft Dynamics AX
» Drill back to Microsoft Dynamics AX via report and web viewers including budget data
» Report on Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 budget funds available and Microsoft Dynamics AX attributes
» Utilize Microsoft Dynamics AX organizational hierarchies in report design
» Multi-currency reports utilize Microsoft Dynamics AX currency translation features
» Update Microsoft Dynamics AX to include Microsoft Forecaster budget data utilizing the Microsoft
Forecaster Data Transfer Tool
Get Up to Date
Make sure you are on the latest version of MR to take advantage of the latest updates and new features. Microsoft
has been releasing three to four updates each year and continues to add new features to the product, not just bug

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.

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

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

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

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
