    Customer Success

    Illustration People Talking

    We have recently completed a project which focused on a custom integration with their Job scheduling software.

    What was completed?
    Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2016 is now integrated with their SharePoint and Time Sheet (Job scheduling) software which is used for support technician scheduling, site visit, and timesheet management.

    The customer is using Job module within Navision. As soon as a new Job is entered, it creates a related directory structure on Microsoft SharePoint and sends Job data with location to TSheet. It captures back TSheet Job ID for seamless integration for future updates on the same Job card.

    What was the benefit?
    This project helped our customer gain greater insight into their Job scheduling, service management, and planning.
