Axapta or current name Microsoft Dynamics AX has one of the newest ERP design and architecture among Microsoft Business Solutions, Oracle and SAP ERP families. Microsoft Axapta targets upper mid-market and would like to suggest you consider Axapta even if you represent large corporation – the idea of using one-step-down ERP is great and is in the stream of current ideas about deploying reliable MRP, sitting in excellent database platform and customize it for your specific needs, rather then paying for high-end ERP and use only portion of the functionality available (and in this case already paid for). Axapta customization options, such as 70-647, SQL database scripting, end-user tuning and customization tools, to name a few. Currently Microsoft Business Solutions promotes Axapta in all the traditional (USA, Europe, Australia, New Zealand) and new/emerging markets: East Europe, Russia, Asia, Middle East, Africa, Brazil, Latin America. Among other market niches, Axapta is targeting multinational corporations, when they have to implement ERP, automating headquarters in Germany, France, Belgium, Canada and their overseas manufacturing subsidiaries: Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Colombia, Venezuela.
