How to: Select a Server and Company

  • Article

In Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you may have to change the company that you are working with from time to time. The companies that you work with can be stored in the same database or in different databases. If the company is stored in a different database, then you must select the server before you can open the company.

To select a different server and open a company

  1. On the Application menu Microsoft Dynamics NAV Application menu, choose Select Server to open the Select Server window.

  2. In the Server Address field, enter the URL of the server that you want to access.

    Important

    The URL must have this format: servername/DynamicsNAV where servername is the name of the computer on which the service is installed.

  3. In the Available Companies field, select the company that you want to open.

  4. Choose the OK button to open the company.

    The next time you open Microsoft Dynamics NAV, the database that you were using last is opened.
