History: Since 2001 DycoTrade HGH BV and her predecessors have been developing, selling, implementing and maintaining the DycoTrade Commodity Trade solution. Development started in 2001, based on Axapta 3.0 and later on Axapta 4.0, MS Dynamics AX2009 and (in recent years) MS Dynamics AX AX2012. As per April 1st 2013 all activities for Commodity Trade have been transferred to DycoTrade HGH BV. Creating more focus on Commodity Trade, DycoTrade HGH BV has experienced a strong growth in 2013 and 2014. This growth contains elements in Functionality, Markets, Sales, Staff and Consultancy. DycoTrade ™ always has been fully integrated with Dynamics AX, the leading ERP application by Microsoft™. With huge research investments Microsofts Dynamics AX has become a leading ERP application, with a worldwide channel of resellers. From the early days Dynamics AX (Axapta) has provided a very strong development suite, to allow (customer based) amendments and additional functionality fully integrated in the Dynamics AX Application. As such, also DycoTrade ™ is fully integrated in Dynamics AX, NOT a front end application, NO interface driven solution, NO web-based application, but FULLY integrated in Dynamics AX, using all existing objects for best possible stability and performance.
Layer structure. Microsoft Dynamics AX is based on a layered system, in which the core (broad) ERP functionality, used worldwide by a variety of businesses is placed in the lowest layer. Microsoft is responsible for maintaining the broad (often country specific) functionality. With an enhancement plan, (annual fee applies) Customers gain access to patches and newer versions of this software. Whether your company is working with (US) Check payments or German SEPA payments, Dynamics AX will take care of that. On top of this strong “core” application, DycoTrade HGH created a DycoTrade Layer containing all Commodity Trade functionality. For any customer specific changes and amendments another layer is reserved, as DycoTrade knows from experience that changes to the standardized (parameter driven) software might be applicable, even on user-level.The DycoTrade application is certified for Dynamics AX by Microsoft.
