LS Retail Achieves Certified for Microsoft Dynamics NAV
LS Retail from Landsteinar Strengur Achieves Certified for Microsoft Dynamics NAV – Microsoft’s Highest Standard For Partner Software Solutions.

Landsteinar Strengur announced today that Microsoft has certified its LS Retail NAV 4.20 to its highest standard for partner developed software solutions, making LS Retail one of the select software solutions to meet the new Microsoft standard.

LS Retail is an end-to-end integrated retail solution that covers POS to back office and head office functionality. The setup can range from a single store with one POS to a complex, multistore environment that integrates with your overall business operation.  LS Retail is built on Microsoft Dynamics therefore, the POS, back office and head office all use the same application. This makes it possible to track individual transactions from the POS to the General Ledger, which maximizes your business value. It integrates data and information from across all divisions of an organization and helps you to analyze, find trends and hence helps you make more profitable decisions.

LS Retail is adjustable from the smallest outlet to a large multinational organization. The same application can be used all the way, from headquarters to POS terminals, without the risk of error in transferring files between different systems. The Multilanguage feature in Microsoft Dynamics NAV makes it possible to use the same setup in various countries and switch between languages as needed.

The solution is flexible so that it can grow with the company, and covers most areas in retail like food, general stores and fashion.  Together with the ease of use and flexibility of Microsoft Dynamics NAV, LS Retail is an ideal solution for both individual stores and in a multistore environment.

LS Retail achieved certification by passing the new Microsoft Dynamics software compatibility test and securing recommendations from at least ten customer references. Certification also required Landsteinar Strengur to be a Microsoft Gold Certified partner and to have a Microsoft Support Plan service agreement.

“Landsteinar Strengur has always been committed to software excellence and achieving the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics NAV is a reflection of that commitment” said Ingvar Kristinsson, MD of product strategy and development Landsteinar Strengur. ”The requirements to become Certified for Microsoft Dynamics reflects LS Retail’s passion for serving our partners, clients and prospects, and emphasizes the importance of working with Microsoft to meet these needs.
