Kindly can any one help me in integrating Microsoft Project With Navision .

i.e i have defined a project & WBS in MS Project & I want to enter the same in my Navision Database.

As of now i’m using dataport for the same.

can any one suggest any alternative for the same.

Kind Regards,

Kavitha.

Hi Kavitha,

Your best bet for integration to NAV would be using XML. I have seen a Tectura Project vertical that allows import and export between NAV and MS Project. But the Project file has to be saved in XML.

You most probably have to study the xml format in project,and map it back to NAV by creating a XML port in NAV.

An alternative would be to use the API for MS Project from MS and integrate directly.

Or maybe take a look at the add-on created by the Danish company TopSolutions.

Sir,can you kindly let me know the procedure/steps to use the API, to integrate directly between the two.
