| Microsoft | Legacy | Microsoft Dynamics NAV | ERP Financial | ERP | n/a | 2015 | 2015 |
In 2015, Dreams implemented Microsoft Dynamics NAV as its ERP Financial platform to centralize core accounting and distribution finance workflows. The deployment focused on finance and distribution functions, providing a single system for general ledger control, month end routines, and management reporting used to issue daily and weekly reports to executives and wider business stakeholders.
The implementation configured Microsoft Dynamics NAV to support general ledger reconciliation, accruals and prepayments processing, capital expenditure recording and reporting, and stock reporting improvements tied to risk team reviews. Finance staff used Microsoft Dynamics NAV for creating accruals and prepayments as part of month end routines, producing P and L review packs, and preparing analytical models for proposed new business activity.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV was integrated into the budgeting and planning landscape through operational linkage to Cognos budgeting software, with Navision feeding financial positions and budget variances. Operational coverage included the Finance department, Distribution leadership, and Risk management, and the budgeting process documented in the notes covered 500 employees across 16 sites, utilities budgeting, and distribution budget ownership.
Governance and workflow changes centered on establishing a recurring month end reconciliation cadence, formalizing reporting deliverables for senior management, and embedding financial review procedures into distribution planning meetings with Heads of Distribution. The implementation emphasized standardized general ledger reviews and routine reconciliation tasks to surface financial risk and opportunities for stakeholders.
