Dynamics 365 for Operations once known as AX-7 gets a new name starting 07/01/2017; to better reflect its capabilities, it will be called Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations.

Whatever the name of Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, I am excited to share the functionality of the software to help [manufacturing](https://info.clientsfirst-ax.com/365-manufacturing-fact-sheet?__hstc=4800236.5ef416d1ff18b4e3d2799893a2b676ad.1641953497195.1641953497195.1641953497195.1&__hssc=4800236.85.1641953497195&__hsfp=2406870324) and distribution businesses solve issues through the use of ERP software that is customized and implemented  for your unique business conditions.
