About

I am a solution architect and senior developer stationed in Denmark, implementing solutions all-over the world, specializing in advanced manufacturing combined with master data replication and Intercompany solutions.

I first saw Navision in 1984 at the beta testing program of PcPlus. I started implementing manufacturing solutions in 1983 on IBM S/36 systems. Since the Dynamics NAV manufacturing module was released, I have implemented at least 50 Manufacturing solutions in all kinds of different businesses. Starting as an accountant in a production company and moving on to implementing systems, I have both the accounting, the development and the implementation background.

As a Microsoft Certified Trainer, I have conducted courses the last 10 years in topics like Dynamics NAV programming, installation, finance, trade, warehouse management and manufacturing. During the 10 years, I have had around 150 courses with at least 800 participants in 14 countries. I maintain a blog in Mibuso.com where I writes about both programming, installation and application topics. Usually topics discussed during courses or customer implementations.
