Doktool automates time consuming  tasks for Dynamics AX consultants

Create Technical and Functional Documents in minutes! Save 80%

 

The success of an ERP project often relies on the quality of it’s documentation, from scope to gap fit , functional and technical design there are multitude of opportunities for misinterpretation along the way. In busy projects with diverse teams of consultants working often in different locations hitting deadlines whilst maintaining quality and consistent levels of documentation is both difficult and time consuming.

 

Doktool is a structured authoring tool that integrates Dynamics AX into MS Word and Visio. Doktool sends the contents of any Project or Table in AX to MS Word or Visio

in any font style, with a full table of contents creating a document that is 80% finished automatically in minutes. All the consultants then need to do is annotate the document adding their own descriptions of the business logic or development and the document is finished.

Reseller case study

a-solutions a leading Microsoft Dynamics AX reseller in Denmark has been using Doktool™ to win business and reduce costs.

Jorn first saw Doktool™ at Microsoft Dynamics Convergence in Copenhagen and was convinced of its merits almost from the start:

"The biggest difficulty in the sales process for us is estimating the volume of hours required for a client upgrade - we can have a margin of error of up to 200% which can be either a nasty shock for our client or an expensive mistake for us. To mitigate the risk we spend many hours working with clients to get this right."

"Our clients have complex infrastructures, often the current management are unaware of changes made by their predecessors. There can be so many changes that it is impossible to keep track; in my experience they are never documented. Doktool™ is a way to get much more accurate estimates, in a much shorter time which means less cost for me and better prices for my clients." more...
