So basically what you are saying is that rather than offer better business functionality by enhancing processes within Nav they are going to make links to other Microsoft software such as SharePoint and CRM so that they can get more licensing fees out of us. Hooray for bank reconciliation. Wow, some serious R&D money spent here. I am a business user and Nav 7.0 WASN'T my idea.

Why provide integration to Dynamics CRM when there is a perfectly good module already sold with the product? (Talking specifically about NAV). Nothing revolutionary in this version. Thankfully there are serious add-on developers around who are moving the product forward.
