Some days ago, I attended Directions EMEA in Vienna - the annual gathering of many Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central partners. It took me a while to digest my impressions, and summarize my key take-aways. Other than many other Directions EMEA reflections that I read and enjoyed, mine is less product-centric, less tech-centric, but more business model-centric.
As announced in my blog about the new features of the Visual Production Scheduler, here comes the introduction to the innovations that have been implemented with the October release of the VJS. Look forward to some comfortable and powerful new features!
With version 1.2 hardly released, here comes version 1.3 of the VPS already. And though it's only been a month since the last version, also the new one was equipped with lots of handy new features which I'd like to introduce to you in this post. Of course, the Visual Jobs Scheduler is also available in a new version, the enhancements of which I will present in a separate blog post.
Looking for ideas on how to intelligently design graphical planning boards? In my blog series about our Visual Scheduling Add-In Developer Toolbox I not only describe the development background of this product, but also how we use it for our own planning boards for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. In this article you can have a look at functions that we use on a planning board for production scheduling.
As announcend in my last week's blog about the new features of the Visual Production Scheduler here comes the introduction of the enhancements of the VJS, our interactive planning app for visualizing jobs, job tasks, job planning lines and resources. Due to the summer break, I skipped the blog about the July release and now present you with the new developments of both the July and the August release.
Along with minor improvements and fixed bugs, the VJS has some nice new features to offer that you can look forward to.
When you have read the previous 4 blog posts you know that the Visual Scheduling Add-In Developer Toolbox is a unique tool that supports AL developers in creating planning boards in HTML5/JavaScript. Since we "eat our own dog food", we also use the toolbox for our own Visual Scheduling Suite. So I interviewed Frank Köhnen, the product developer of our Visual Jobs Scheduler, and asked him how he uses the toolbox. He shares his experiences here and gives some nice visualization tips.
Sticking to our promise of providing new releases every month, we came up with releases of the VPS (and, of course, the Visual Jobs Scheduler) in July and in August. Due to the summer holidays, there was no special blog about the July release, so that today I'll give you the tour of both VPS releases. The VJS will follow next week.
We recently launched a new product. How did the new product come about? What is the idea behind it? I'm looking into this question in my blog series, for which I have interviewed different colleagues involved in product design, development and overall strategy. For this blog post, I talked to Martin, CEO and Co-Owner about the first steps towards the Visual Scheduling Add-in Developer Toolbox.
