It’s incredibly rare for a politician to be handed a suitcase full of cash in exchange for a vote. We are much more sophisticated these days. Instead of stacks of cash, we engage people and organizations as consultants adding a veneer of respectability to the process. Theoretically, it makes explaining the wire transfers easier, but not always. Polar Air Cargo Worldwide is a cargo airline jointly owned by DHL and Atlas Air. In April of 2023, the [US brought bribery charges](https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/ten-defendants-charged-decade-long-multi-million-dollar-scheme-defraud-international) against 10 people related to Polar. The list of 10 people includes Polar’s VP of Marketing, VP of Operations, and Senior Director of Customer Service. They allegedly ran a pay-to-play scheme where customers and vendors would pay Polar for shipping and the executives for access. This went on for more than 10 years. From 2009 to 2021 Polar Air’s owners had no idea this was happening. The way the scheme worked was customers would contract with freight forwarders to arrange shipping. Polar Air would quote a great rate or arrange priority for a shipment. To get that rate or move to the front of the line, the freight forwarders had to make an additional payment to one of several other entities controlled by the executives. Polar management would instruct forwarders that the additional “consulting fees” were part of Polar’s normal way of doing business. It was compared to a resort fee, a mandatory fee that is either not disclosed or poorly disclosed but is nevertheless, required. The fee amounts were based on the tonnage of cargo being shipped. As part of the indictment, there is an [8-page spreadsheet](https://assets.bwbx.io/documents/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/r4bfShrjx8ys/v0) with rates for one shipment as an example. Fees were typically paid monthly via ACH to entities controlled by the executives, with a spreadsheet detailing how payments should be split. This scheme applied to vendors too. Polar Air executives arranged favorable terms for vendors secretly controlled by the executives. The situation at Polar was described as “pervasive corruption”. Accountants never want to hear words like “catastrophic failure of internal controls”, but “pervasive corruption” is barely in their vocabulary. FTX was described as “a complete absence of internal controls”, but even it didn’t rise to “pervasive corruption”. [Polar Air is said to have lost as much as $52 million in direct losses and missed revenue. The executives are accused of pocketing about $23 million.](https://www.freightwaves.com/news/former-polar-air-cargo-executives-charged-in-52m-fraud-scheme) So how did they get caught? This is where the story gets even better. One of Polar’s customers, Cargo On Demand paid a total of $1.6 million in kickbacks from 2016-2021 and got tired of it, [so they sued](https://assets.bwbx.io/documents/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/re5PdpnyFjXc/v0) under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO). RICO statutes are often used to target organized crime, which technically I guess this was. As a result, the CEO of Cargo On Demand has also been indicted for paying bribes to Polar Air. This feels a little like calling the police because your drugs have been stolen. --- ## Don’t Default to Excel - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dont-default-to-excel/ - Date: 2021-04-05 - Topics: Excel & Office, Install, Upgrade & Admin, General Ledger & Financials - Type: original article I’m a big fan of Excel. Heck, I’m such a fan I’ve [written a couple of books around it.](https://www.amazon.com/Mark-Polino/e/B003VARZ72/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&linkCode=ur2&qid=1400686241&sr=1-2-ent&tag=polinofamilywebs&linkId=LRBDEIXZ3JXXKYNH) I have a [tool built on it](/historical-excel-reporting/). It is unequivocally the glue that holds financial departments, and in some cases organizations, together. Sometimes though, people take that too far. All too often users lean into Excel because it’s familiar. Instead of learning the application sending data to Excel, they simply export to Excel. Why is this bad? Let me count the ways. 1. **Excel isn’t as good as a dedicated tool.** I see this where systems have tools dedicated to a task and instead of using those tools users choose Excel. A great example of this is bank reconciliations. ERP systems have dedicated bank rec modules. They are designed with appropriate controls, imports from bank records, and math that always works. Still, a fair number of people choose to skip using bank rec modules and do it via Excel. It’s always messy. It’s easy to get the math wrong. It’s also not something that auditors are a fan of because Excel sheets are more prone to manipulation. I’ve seen at least one person fired for this when flaws in their Excel sheet were exposed. 2. **Excel may add work.** This happens when users reflexively export to Excel without understanding the core system. Many times I’ve seen users export data and build a big report from scratch in Excel. This process gets repeated month after month. Later, sometimes years later, they realize that the system actually has the report they needed and they could have avoided all the wasted effort. 3. **Excel can add complexity**. Similar to the last item, I see users export data from multiple reports and pull data together with vlookups. In the process, they build a mess because they don’t understand the underlying data. Just because data can be connected a certain way, doesn’t mean it is connected that way. There may other elements required for an appropriate connection. Explaining the mess tends to be hard on the ego of folks who created the mess. It’s exhausting convincing them that their Excel model is wrong. Excel is not always the best choice for connecting data, that’s why databases exist. There’s a second part to this as well. If you’ve ever inherited someone else’s Excel sheet, you understand how difficult it can be to simply understand, not mention untangle, what they’ve done. 4. **Excel can include errors**. This one is pretty obvious. We’ve all made an Excel math error, formula error, something, heck multiple somethings. Experienced folks build checks and balances into their sheets and that adds another level of complexity. Sometimes this gets overblown, but it takes a lot of work to protect a sheet against errors. I have absolutely nothing against Excel. I use it a lot, but I don’t default to it. Excel shouldn’t be a primary tool. It should be a fallback when a primary tool falls short. Take the time and energy to figure out primary systems and use Excel to fill in the gaps. --- ## Dynamics GP and SOC Reports - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-and-soc-reports/ - Date: 2021-02-22 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article At Fastpath, I occasionally get questions about SOC reports for Dynamics GP. In many cases this results from misplaced or misunderstood auditor questions. The AICPA’s Service Organization Controls (SOC) framework is a standard for controls that safeguard the confidentiality and privacy of information stored and processed in the cloud. Essentially, SOC reports provide a level of assurance such that auditors don’t need to individually audit every cloud provider for every client. The key phrase there is “in the cloud”. Since Microsoft doesn’t host GP in the cloud, it sells GP as an on-premise application, Microsoft doesn’t issue any SOC reports for GP. Indeed, it can’t issue SOC reports because it doesn’t host GP in the cloud. With respect to GP, Microsoft is software vendor not a cloud service provider. If GP is hosted locally by the organization there also wouldn’t be a SOC report required. An auditor would simply test controls locally. Where this gets interesting is when a company hosts GP somewhere else. This could be running GP in a shared data center, hosting GP in an AWS or Azure virtual machine, or using GP in a SAAS environment from a full service provider. In any of those scenarios one or more SOC reports would be appropriate. Microsoft for example, offers SOC reports for Azure and the Dynamics products that it hosts (Like Dynamics 365 Finance and Dynamics 365 Business Central) There are two main categories of service audits based on the SOC framework, namely a SOC 1 and SOC 2. A SOC 1 audit evaluates the effectiveness of a cloud service provider’s (CSP) internal controls that affect the financial reports of a customer using the provider’s cloud services. SOC 1 reports are appropriate in situations where the service provider has access to GP data or other tools that could affect the financial statements. This would include something like Management Reporter, but might exclude an HR product. Despite the sensitivity of HR data, HR data isn’t used for financial statements. A SOC 2 audit gauges the effectiveness of a CSP’s system based on the AICPA Trust Service Principles and Criteria. A SOC 2 evaluates the processes and controls of the service provider. A SOC 2 might be used alone in a scenario where a server is simply hosted in a data center and where the data center is responsible for physical security, but doesn’t control the customer’s server. It might also be appropriate for a cloud provider where the data doesn’t affect financial statements, like our HR application described above. SOC 1 & 2 reports can also be a Type 1 or a Type 2. In a Type 1, the company describes its controls and provides documentation as of a point in time. The auditor’s report is based on reviews of the controls and documentation. A Type 2 report provides a higher level of assurance than a Type 1. With a Type 2 report, the auditor reviews both the design and the operating effectiveness of controls over time. Since a Type 2 SOC takes time, often 6 months or more, many organizations pursue a Type 1 audit until they are able to complete a Type 2. At the conclusion of a SOC audit, the service auditor renders an opinion in a SOC 1 Type 2 or SOC 2 Type 2 report. The report describes the CSP’s system and assesses the fairness of the CSP’s description of its controls. It also evaluates whether the CSP’s controls are designed appropriately, were in operation on a specified date, and were operating effectively over a specified time period. Microsoft has a nice review of SOC reports at this link SOC reports provide a level of assurance for users of a service provider. They also simplify the audit process for users since auditor can evaluate and choose to rely on a SOC report instead of performing their own audit. Choosing a cloud service provider without a SOC report is not generally recommended, but SOC reports only apply to Dynamics GP when it is hosted somewhere. --- ## Underused Software Syndrome - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/underused-software-syndrome/ - Date: 2021-02-08 - Topics: Excel & Office, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Accounting & Career - Type: original article Do you have low level anxiety, a feeling you’re not getting everything you could out of your existing software? Is there a nagging guilt that it’s your fault? Does it seem if only you had more time or training you could really master that piece of software and life would be so much easier? **Welcome to Underused Software Syndrome!** I’ve searched for a term for this phenomenon and not found one so I’ve decided to coin my own. Feel free to set me straight if this anxiety already has a name. I see this low-level fear a lot. The idea that there is something more, some magic, hiding in a piece of software. Finding this magic would result in a life of unicorns, rainbows, and tropical drinks…or so we believe. Part of the challenge is that occasionally we do stumble onto a feature that solves a significant problem or increases productivity. That reinforces the syndrome. Surely the developers added more features like the one we just found if only we had time to look harder. With Underused Software Syndrome, we think software problems are our fault. While it’s right to want to be more productive and to solve problems, it’s wrong to blame yourself. Underused Software Syndrome manifests frequently in business software users. Users of applications like ERP systems (accounting), CRM (sales), and even Office apps like Excel are common sufferers. The software is so big and complex that user’s blame themselves for not being more efficient. This seems to be a form of impostor syndrome mixed with a little FOMO, the fear of missing out. The user feels that despite their knowledge of their job and the relevant software, they don’t know enough and they aren’t good enough. Surely everyone else is getting more out of the software. I’m sure this feeling isn’t limited to business software. Video editing and graphic design software seem more than complex enough to generate Underused Software Syndrome feeling. I just have more experience with business software. In some cases, there’s a financial element to the feeling of Underused Software Syndrome. The idea that software is expensive, and it’s fiscally responsible to use as many features as possible, can sometimes underly the feelings of anxiety. Much like an underused gym membership, people feel guilty if they aren’t fully utilizing it. In other examples, anxiety may manifest itself based on unfulfilled expectations. Users believe that a software package should have a particular feature and that feature should behave a certain way. Features often manifest differently than expectations leaving users with a vague feeling they missed something. Finally, there is the fear of missing out. For example, lots of people use Excel and lots of people use a tiny fraction of Excel’s features. Even if they know a feature is there, they have to remember the feature exists at the time they want to use it. Most people are not experts in a given software and most are not getting more out of it than you are. People like me make this worse. For a long time, I’ve helped people get the most out of the software they own. But that was part of my job. It’s also something I really enjoy, and yet I feel Underused Software Syndrom symptoms about software I deeply understand. I differentiate underused software from shelfware. Shelfware is software that is not being used. The organization may still be paying maintenance or fees for software they aren’t using at all. Shelfware is easier to address. Ignore the sunk costs and cancel any maintenance or monthly fees. Alternatively, revisit why the software was purchased in the first place and potentially put it to use. Underused software is harder. The organization is getting some value from the software, maybe not enough value to match the cost, but value nonetheless. It’s hard to toss out software that is being used. I have a couple of thoughts on options to address underused software and it’s related syndrome: 1. Accept that value is being generated by using the software. Even if it’s only used for a small task, it is still helping accomplish the task. Accept that this software does this task and move one. Sometimes you just need to accept something and move on. 2. Evaluate the value of that task against any ongoing costs. A small task with a big cost is not a good value proposition. In that case, it may make sense to figure out if there are additional uses or if it’s time to switch to something else. 3. Pick one thing to improve and search for that. You’d be amazed at what’s available for any given piece of software. Maybe there’s a need to automate a process or export data, whatever. Someone else has probably already tried it and written about it. At a minimum, you’ll get an answer that something can’t be done. Even in that worst-case scenario, a quick answer makes it easier to stop obsessing and move on to the next thing. 4. Make sure the organization has the latest version. Underused software may be neglected enough to be on an old version. Updating can reveal improvements in features and UI that help resolve anxiety. 5. Get some help. It’s a big world. There are books, classes, training, blogs, videos, you name it, on some of the most obscure software ever made. There are resources to help. Use them. “But I don’t have enough time” is the common refrain. There is a problem, but not a priority. People find the time for a priority. It’s okay if this isn’t a priority right now. When it becomes a priority you’ll make the time. Until then, don’t stress about it. --- ## GP Easy Security Bonus: What’s the job? Really? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-easy-security-bonus-whats-the-job-really/ - Date: 2019-03-05 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Accounting & Career - Type: original article [In this series, we’re looking at quick fixes to improve GP security. ] As users make security changes like the ones described, there are often requests to retain excess access. The key with these is to really consider job being done and ask lots of questions. For example, the CFO role should be an executive job, not a job that involved entering journal entries. In most organizations, that same thinking should apply to the Controller position. A Controller may help shape a journal entry, assist with getting the accounts right, etc, but the Controller should be asking someone else to make an entry, not processing transactions. Executive jobs are not transactional jobs. This trickles through to other roles as well, and it’s important to ask the same questions. What is this person’s job? Their responsibilities? Their role in the organization? What access is appropriate? In many cases users ask for convenience access. For example, a request may be for access to window that is the only place with a certain piece of information. Vendor Maintenance is one example. The Vendor Inquiry window doesn’t contain everything on the Vendor Maintenance window. This is trap. Grant access to a report or SmartList instead. If the user needs the information, the format its delivered in should be less of an issue. If there are alternative ways to accomplish the same result, use those. If not, companies need to consider the risk/benefit of allow excessive access. Requests like these may be made to support or backup another individual, but granting access year-round to back up two weeks of vacation leaves a pretty big hole open most of the year. It’s convenient for the user and administrator to grant this access, but it’s a poor security choice. Is the benefit of not changing security twice a year worth 50 weeks of risk? This series is just a start. It won’t solve all of a companies security needs or plug every hole, but the items we’ve covered can address significant, pervasive issues and provide a solid foundation for long-term security improvement.

Those are easy ways to improve security. The same advice applies to items. It’s important to ensure that users with access to manage items, don’t also have transaction access to inventory, purchasing, sales. A user with access to items and sales transactions could artificially lower an item price and then process a transaction at the reduced price. Access to items and inventory transactions could allow inventory manipulation in the financial statements including the creation and write-on of non-existent inventory. Finally, a user with item and P.O. access could manipulate the accounts assigned to an item and flow that manipulation through the purchasing process. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Screen-Shot-2019-02-01-at-1.41.23-PM.png) It’s not unusual to find warehouse managers with access to manage items and make inventory adjustments. Resist the urge to allow that. There are simply too many ways to commit fraud or manipulate the financial statements with access to items and item transactions. Object: Item Maintenance Task: Card\_0401\* Role IDs: Operations Manager, Poweruser, Purchasing Agent, Purchasing Manager Note that all four of these roles provide access to item maintenance, purchase orders, item transactions and sales transactions. In other words, they are full of item related conflicts. It’s going to be important to split up these roles to properly segregate access. You can find all of the fixes in this series at [GP Easy Security Fixes](/new-series-easy-security-fixes-for-gp). --- ## GP Easy Security: Three Way Match - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/easy-gp-security-three-way-match/ - Date: 2019-02-19 - Topics: Sales, Purchasing & Inventory, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article [In this series, we’re looking at quick fixes to improve GP security.] When people hear “three-way” in a conversation, inventory is usually not the first thing that comes to mind. When someone says “Three way match” in an accounting system, they are typically referring to the purchasing process where the receipt of goods is matched to a purchase order and the invoice is then matched to the receipt, i.e. three matching points so a three way match. The idea behind this process is to ensure that the supplier provides and invoices goods that were ordered, at the ordered quantity and price. If preventing supplier fraud was all that mattered, this would be easy. However, the inventory process lends itself to lots of opportunities to either defraud the organization or defraud investors. The [Crazy Eddie fraud](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Eddie) provides a classic example. ![Crazy eddie logo.png](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/fd/Crazy_eddie_logo.png) Fair use, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?curid=7265482 In the case of GP, separating purchasing, receiving, and invoicing provide additional defense against inventory fraud. For example, if a user has access to create a P.O. and receive goods they could order items for personal use and have the company pay for it via the purchasing process. The problem would wash out as a missing item in the inventory count and as a long as the fraud didn’t occur too often, it might never be found. The inventory process should be full of compensating controls like P.O. approvals, physical inventory control, inventory counts/cycle counts, etc. Often though, these controls loosen up over time, so a regular review of controls is important. P.O.s are controlled via the Purchase Order Entry window. This window is present in the default task TRX\_PURCH\_001\*. The primary receiving window, Receivings Transaction Entry, is in TRX\_PURCH\_004\* and Purchasing Invoice Entry, the main invoice entry window is TRX\_PURCH\_005\*. That seems simple enough except that both TRX\_PURCH\_004\* and TRX\_PURCH\_005\* give access to enter receiving and perform invoice matching. The descriptions on the tasks are deceiving and these tasks are combined in multiple roles. All of this works agains segregating supply chain elements. Separating these elements into multiple tasks and splitting them into individual roles is a great place to start getting control of the purchasing and inventory process. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-31-at-9.48.50-AM.png) There is one more quirk in GP purchasing. The Receivings Transaction Window allows receipt of a shipment of goods, a combined shipment/invoice, or an intracompany transfer. Securing the shipment/invoice process, where a shipment and invoice are entered at the same time is a challenge in GP. Field Level Security is tough to use here because this is a required field, but there are some options. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-31-at-9.41.52-AM.png) To secure shipment/invoice functionality, a password can be applied using Field Level Security that essentially locks the field to shipment. A password is then required to select a different option. This works well, until companies need to receive intracompany transfers and don’t want to give out the password. Other options include using VBA to control selections on this field or Modifier to change the name of shipment/invoice to something else. Changing shipment/invoice to “select to get fired” would probably be mostly effective, but there would still need to be a review to follow through on that threat. This thread on the Dynamics Community site has additional details on the options to control shipment/invoice: You can find all of the fixes in this series at [GP Easy Security Fixes](/new-series-easy-security-fixes-for-gp). --- ## GP Easy Security Fixes: Customer Payments - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-easy-security-fixes-customer-payments/ - Date: 2019-02-12 - Topics: Payables & Receivables, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article [In this series, we’re looking at quick fixes to improve GP security.] *Full disclosure, controlling customer payments is not the easiest fix, but it’s really important.* While most people involved in accounting understand the basic risks around payables transactions, there is also a long history of fraud around receivables. In many cases, this involves intercepting payments and then manipulating the accounting records to hide the missing payments. Two common manipulations are lapping and write-off/discount adjustments. Lapping involves intercepting a payment and then applying future payments, or payments from a different customer, to hide the stolen funds. GP provides extremely flexible options for applying, unapplying, and reapplying payments until receivables transactions are sent to history. Even in history, the RM Transaction Unapply tool present in the Professional Services Tools would allow unapplying historical receivables for reapplication. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-22-at-2.42.57-PM.png) There are multiple places in GP to control applying receivables so the easy fix to prevent lapping is to separate the receipt of payment from the entry of payments. A lockbox, including using GP’s lockbox functionality, is a great way to deal with this. If a lockbox isn’t available, a user should receive checks and either make copies for application or log the checks. A different user should be applying the payment. With write-off/discount adjustments, a user again intercepts a payment, but they hide that payment by writing off the related invoice. The customer doesn’t receive any indication that their check wasn’t properly applied. Identical in concept, a discount could be applied to eliminate the balance instead of using a write-off. Controlling maximum write-offs in GP is one way to reduce the risk of fraud. The maximum write-off amount is per customer and controlled via options in Customer Maintenance so limiting access to Customer Maintenance is crucial. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-22-at-2.32.03-PM.png) Receivables Setup can require a password to exceed the maximum write off, but that assumes the user can’t just change it via Customer Maintenance. Also, that password is a shared password stored in plain text in SQL so it’s not especially secure. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-22-at-2.41.39-PM.png) Separating receipt of payments from write-offs and discounts is still the best defense against fraud here. Additionally, regular reviews of write-offs and discounts to supplement other controls is important. If a user can gain physical access to customer payments there are many opportunities for fraud. These aren’t just theoretical opportunities either. Accounting literature is full of companies who have been hit by receivables fraud.  Don’t let your company be one of them. You can find all of the fixes in this series at [GP Easy Security Fixes](/new-series-easy-security-fixes-for-gp). --- ## GP Easy Security Fixes: Vendor and Customer Maintenance - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-easy-security-fixes-vendor-and-customer-maintenance/ - Date: 2019-02-05 - Topics: Payables & Receivables, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article [In this series, we’re looking at quick fixes to improve GP security. ] Most people involved at all in accounting understand that if a user has access to manage vendors and payments that it is pretty easy to create false vendor records and generate payments to those false vendors. In other words, it’s the fast lane to fraudville. Only slightly more complicated are similar schemes involving customers. Payment redirection fraud can be just as dangerous and harder to detect. All this risk leads to some pretty simple advice, don’t allow users with access to manage vendors to also manage payables transactions. The same advice goes for customers. In GP, vendor and customer access correspond to the Vendor Maintenance and Customer Maintenance windows respectively. That’s it. The end. If only it was that simple. It’s also possible to manipulate a vendor address and redirect a legitimate payment to a different address. In GP, as with many other systems, address records are separate from master record records to accommodate multiple addresses. Additionally, electronic payment setup (EFT/ACH) is also tied to specific vendor addresses to allow multiple options. This adds another dimension of security to addresses since we’re not just talking about redirecting a check, but electronic payments as well. GP’s tasks reflect this connection between master records and addresses. The task Cards\_0301\* provide access to vendors and vendor addresses, while Cards\_0201\* provides access to customers and customer addresses. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-14-at-10.47.22-AM.png) The biggest issue out of the box is that these tasks belong to a large number of roles and many of those roles also provide access to vendor or customer transactions. Simply separating these tasks into roles that can be used to better manage master record access is an easy fix, but there’s one more catch. Often, users need to access the data in vendor and customer cards. The obvious answer is to grant access to corresponding inquiry windows. These are read-only windows intended for users who only don’t need to make changes, but there is one big problem, inquiry windows don’t always include every present on an entry window. For example, the Vendor Inquiry window doesn’t show if a vendor is on hold. Nor does it include the related 1099 address. Vendor Inquiry also doesn’t provide access to accounts to review accounts associated with a vendor, nor is there a way to review email or project settings via the inquiry window. These missing fields are often used as an excuse for granting broad access to maintenance windows. That excuse is a trap. If read only access is required for information not available on an inquiry window, find it someplace else in Dynamics GP. For example, the Vendor Navigation list can identify if a vendor is on hold. SmartLists are also a great option for showing data in a read only format. A SmartList is just as fast as an inquiry screen and provides the necessary information without exposing the organization to the unnecessary risk. Finally, if there is simply no way to separate customer/vendor master records from transactions, consider using Dynamics GP’s Workflow features as a mitigating control. But mitigating controls are not as good a primary controls so companies should make a determined effort to separate these functions before turning to mitigation here.

It’s one of the few regular, independent checks of what goes on in a company. I’ve seen senior accountants get fired for poor bank reconciliation management and I’ve seen awful bank reconciliations as a symptom of deeper problems in a company that ultimately failed spectacularly. As a result, it makes sense to ensure that users who perform bank reconciliations are independent from transactions. A review of bank reconciliations isn’t enough. It’s easy to hide transactions from a review. Bank reconciliation really needs to be performed by someone with an independent attitude not tied to transactions. Ideally, it should performed daily to provide the greatest benefit, but even the traditional monthly reconciliation, but provides and effective control if done right. Finding the right position to reconcile bank accounts can be tough for organizations. Often the person best positioned to perform the reconciliation is also the person in the best position to manipulate the results. In Dynamics GP, the window is Reconcile Bank Statements and it is the only item included in the task TRX\_FIN\_008\*. By default this does NOT include posting, but would allow a user to make adjusting entries, just not post them. Adjusting entries in GP bank rec are designed for things like bank fees or interest, items that are typically first reported on the bank statement, but they can be used for almost anything. Bank rec users should not have access to other types of bank transactions. Additionally, a policy of forcing adjustments to be made outside of bank reconciliation provides another measure of safety. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-09-at-12.08.08-PM.png) Reconcile Bank Statement Task The real keys are to first ensure that this task is not combined into other roles that allow transactions against bank accounts and second to ensure that when a user is a assigned a role with bank rec included, they are not also assigned transactional roles. Bank reconciliation is a core control. Ideally, it’s performed daily, to be as timely as possible, and by someone not involved in transactions for some level of independence.

That means posting transactions in the correct period. Both revenues and expenses can be manipulated by posting them in past or future periods and this results in incorrect financial statements. Getting the dates right in Dynamics GP can be more challenging than it seems. ([We looked at this in our Controller series](/providing-consistency-with-dates/).) But just as important is maintaining control of fiscal periods. GP makes it easy to open and close fiscal periods for various modules. Dig deeper and you’ll see that GP actually provides fine grain control for opening and closing individual transaction types. That’s overkill for most organizations. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-08-at-11.07.49-AM.png) Fiscal Periods Setup The key is that there should only be one or two individuals with rights to open and close periods and those users should not be allowed to create or change transactions. Otherwise, it’s just too easy to open a month and post backwards or open next year and push a transaction far into the future. Fiscal Periods are managed via Administration>Setup>Company>Fiscal Periods. The window is Fiscal Periods Setup and by default its assigned to these roles: - Accounts Payable Clerk - Accounting Manager - Power User The default task is ADMIN\_COMPANY\_001\*. I would strongly recommend removing this task from the Accounts Payable Clerk role right now. I’ll wait… Realistically, the Fiscal Periods Setup window should be segregated into a role without transaction access. For example, a role that allows maintaining the chart of accounts and fiscal periods, but not transaction entry, starts to provide a level of effective segregation without imposing a significant burden. Also, be careful with two other items: access to the Professional Services Tools library and the Allow Posting to History setting in General Ledger setup. The Fiscal Period Modifier tool included with the Professional Services Tools Library can be used to reopen closed years. Imagine posting transactions 10 years back to hide inappropriate transactions. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-08-at-11.07.00-AM.png) Fiscal Period Modifier Similarly,  Allow Posting to History is a setting that allows posting directly to the last closed year if a fiscal period is open for that year. This is a great feature for closing the year while still being able to make final adjusting entries. It’s also dangerous once year end close is complete. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-08-at-11.07.59-AM.png) Posting to History Properly managing fiscal periods help keep closed years closed and current year transactions in the right periods.

If the chart can change, the fundamental nature of the resulting financial statements can be changed. Imagine the damage that could be done simply by reclassifying an income statement account to a balance sheet account? That’s before we get into false accounts and transactions (shudder). Controlling who has access to the chart of accounts via the Account Maintenance window in Dynamics is an easy way to eliminate a lot of segregation of duties issues. Separating account creation and maintenance from the ability to make entries is a great way to improve control and it is easier than expected. Even in a very small finance organization it’s possible to segregate duties by letting the  controller manage the chart and others make journal entries. It’s not perfect, but it’s an improvement. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-07-at-4.27.17-PM.png) Account Maintenance The only really pushback is that sometimes users need to see elements in the chart to confirm that they are using the right number, validate that the account was setup correctly, etc. In Dynamics GP, there is no inquiry window for the chart accounts. Frankly, this is a poor reason to grant access. Both the Accounts Navigation List (Financial>Navigation Lists>Accounts) and the Accounts Smartlist (MSDynamicsGP>Smartlists>Financial>Accounts) can show account information including the description, account type, active status, and user defined information without permission to make changes. By default, the Accounting Manager, Bookkeeper, Certified Accountant, and Power User roles all have access to the Account Maintenance window. Access is provided via the Card\_0101\* task. Reducing the roles with access to this task or moving access to Account Maintenance to separate task and tightly controlling the roles it is assigned to will along way in managing access to the chart. One additional note, the Mass Modify Chart of Accounts feature (Financial>Cards>Financial>Mass Modify) can also be used to create or change accounts. Security to Mass Modify Chart of Accounts is also included in the Cards\_1010\* task and in most case should mirror the access granted to Account Maintenance. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-07-at-4.37.28-PM.png) Mass Modify The chart is the heart of an accounting system and it’s still surprising how often we run into segregation of duties issues where a large number of users have access to make changes to the chart. This is an easy fix, so get things cleaned up today.

This one takes a look at easy security fixes for Dynamics GP. Security gets a lot of attention around year-end, and many companies know that their GP security settings aren’t the best that they could be. There are plenty of good reasons for this, but I’m not here to point fingers, I’m here to help. Realistically, there are lots of things companies should do to setup security the right way in GP. These include understanding processes, mapping processes to job functions, tying job functions to Roles and Tasks in GP and reviewing the whole pile for segregations of duties conflicts. But not everyone understand the incredible value built when you setup security the right way, and sometimes, you just need to make some progress now. This series isn’t about doing everything right, it’s about doing something now that makes you safer tomorrow than you were yesterday. It’s the “I know I should I should eat right and exercise, but how do I lose 5 pounds by Friday?” approach to GP security. In this series I’m going to focus on fast security fixes around: - [Journal Entries](/gp-easy-security-fixes-journal-entries/) - [Account Maintenance](/gp-easy-security-fixes-account-maintenance) - [Fiscal Periods](/gp-easy-security-fixes-fiscal-periods/) - [Bank Transactions and Reconciliation](/gp-easy-security-fixes-bank-reconciliation/) - [Vendor and Customer Maintenance](/gp-easy-security-fixes-vendor-and-customer-maintenance) - [Customer Payments](/gp-easy-security-fixes-customer-payments/) - [3 Way Match](/easy-gp-security-three-way-match/) - [Item](/gp-easy-security-fixes-items/(opens in a new tab)) [Maintenance](/gp-easy-security-fixes-items/) - [Bonus: What’s the job?

Links to each item will be added once the post is up. --- ## GP Easy Security Fixes: Journal Entries - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-easy-security-fixes-journal-entries/ - Date: 2019-01-08 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, General Ledger & Financials - Type: original article [In this series, we’re looking at quick fixes to improve GP security. ] Controlling access to Journal Entries is a fundamental control point. If users can make and post journal entries without any review, they can do just about anything to the final financial statement numbers. In Dynamics GP, there are actually three different ways to enter a journal entry and an easy security fix is to turn off two of them. In Dynamics GP, a journal entry can be created using the Transaction Entry, Quick Journal Entry, or Clearing Entry windows. Transaction Entry is the primary journal entry option. It supports batches for review, approval of batches, and workflow approval by batch. This is what most people think of when they think of creating a journal entry in GP. It’s also the area where organizations are most likely to place controls. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-07-at-3.51.25-PM.png) Quick Journals were designed to be journal entries created via templates where the accounts were similar from month to month, but the amounts  would change. There are a couple of problems with Quick Journals: - They don’t use batches making them difficult for others to review prior to posting - They don’t support approvals - They don’t support workflow - They are rarely used. This last one is actually the biggest issue. Because many companies barely know that Quick Journals exist, they don’t restrict them in security. It’s a journal entry hole big enough to drive a truck through. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-07-at-3.53.20-PM.png) On top of that, Quick Journal functionality can be duplicated using recurring batches in Transaction Entry. The Recurring Batches feature provides equivalent functionality with approval and review options using the Transaction Entry window. There is a simple fix, turn Quick Journals off. In a base GP install, the Accounting Manager, Bookkeeper, and Power User roles have access to the Quick Journal Entry window. It is a part of the TRX\_FIN\_001\* task. Simply remove the window from the task to remove access using Setup>System>Security Tasks. Finally, we come to the odd little feature known as Clearing Entries. Clearing entries are designed to clear the balance of an account (either year-to-date or for a specific period) to a different account, hence the name. The odd part is that these entries don’t show any amounts. Users simply select Year-to-Date or Trx Period and they are left hoping the amount is correct. While a report can be run to show the amount, that’s extra time and effort just to see the amounts on a journal entry. This is another feature that is rarely if ever used. Most users prefer to validate the balance to be moved and then process a regular journal entry. ![](/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Screen-Shot-2019-01-07-at-3.57.56-PM.png) Clearing entries do support batches, but there is so little benefit to clearing entries that most users avoid them. Turning them off is a great way to ensure that they can’t be used as a back door to an inappropriate journal entry. Clearing entries are also part of the Accounting Manager, Bookkeeper and Power User roles and they are a member of the TRX\_FIN\_001\* task by default. Simply remove the window from the task to turn it off using Setup>System>Security Tasks. With just a couple of simple tweaks, it’s easy close off access to alternative journal entry options and focus control on the main Transaction Entry window.

That key is a champion. By champion, I don’t necessarily mean a key executive sponsor, though without that you’ll probably fail. I’m not referring to a strong administrator or a project manager, though they are important, too. For me, a true champion is a user who embraces the system and becomes the go-to person internally for Dynamics GP. The ideal champion in my experience is a mid-level accounting person with a strong technology background. Occasionally it’s a DBA with a passion for business. In a few lucky organizations, it’s someone with prior GP experience. Generally, the best way to find the champion is to walk into a business running GP and ask who writes GP macros–very quickly, you’ll find the champion. A champion is important because this individual finds ways to make the system work within a particular company’s unique culture. He or she can talk to support with a clear idea of the problem and apply the solution. The champion can help users who don’t embrace the system work through issues. Champions figure out little things, like how macros work, to make user’s lives easier. Finally, a champion reduces the involvement of partner organizations. Not only does this save money, but it actually improves relationships with partners. Being called out for an hour to deal with a stuck check back isn’t efficient for most partners and calling for outside help always takes longer than walking down the hall with a question. You don’t hear about champions during project kickoff meetings. Partners talk about project sponsors, the importance of training, the schedule and the team members, but no champions. Perhaps it’s because champions are often born during an implementation and it can be tough to identify one beforehand. That’s because a champion is more about attitude than aptitude. It’s the embracing of the system that makes the difference. The motivation behind that embrace can vary wildly. For some, it’s a chance to be seen making a difference in an organization. For others, it’s simply about being the person who got the job done, and for some, it may simply be old-fashioned resume’ building. Regardless of the motivation, champions are an extremely valuable part of a company’s GP infrastructure that often goes unrecognized. It’s tough to replace a champion and to truly replace one often requires a lot more money than companies think. When I begin an implementation, I usually don’t know who will become a GP champion. I do know that the more quickly I find this person,  the smoother the implementation will go.

Yet a significant number of companies have been slow to adopt it. True there is some setup at both the system and the application level, but it’s worth it. I suspect apathy is still the greatest impediment, especially since Ian Grieve has a [ton of articles](http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/page/3/?s=workflow) and [a small book on everything workflow](https://amzn.to/2RDqHdY) related. Workflow in GP is robust. It allows organizations to formalize a number of key accounting processes with review and approvals along the way. Email delivery and approval links make it easy to review and approve. Workflow allows companies to focus reviews appropriately and ensure that they aren’t getting missed. So much is available via Ian website and Google that I’ll just point you there. If your organization is not using workflow in GP you are missing out.

You really want to avoid having to make statements like Costo did: > “The weakness relates to general information technology controls in the areas of user access and program change-management over certain information technology systems that support the Company’s financial reporting processes. The access issues relate to the extent of privileges afforded users authorized to access company systems.” > > https://normanmarks.wordpress.com/2018/10/06/costco-reports-a-material-weakness-in-internal-control-but-is-it-really/ So how do you fix this in GP? There are a lot of pieces, but we’ll hit the highlights and include plenty of resources. 1. **Control/Limit/Eliminate ‘**sa**‘ & ‘**Dynsa**‘ users, and don’t assign the ‘**Power User**‘ role.** Once the system is up an running, ‘sa’ is really only recommended for installing additional modules and running the GP Utilities APPLICATION (not utilities in GP). Everything else can be done with other permissions. Dynsa is required to exist and own the database. There is no reason for a user to need it. The Power User role simply provides too much access and creates a risk of both intentional and accidental issues. [Fastpath’s Minimizing the Use of ‘](https://www.gofastpath.com/blog/fastpath-white-paper-minimizing-the-use-of-sa-in-microsoft-dynamics-gp)sa’ whitepaper is a great resource for addressing this. 2. **Rebuild & reassign roles in GP.** The roles in GP are designed to complete a process from beginning to end. This works great for testing and violates segregation of duties principles across the board. An AP clerk should not be able to create a vendor, enter a voucher, and process payment without additional controls, but that is what the AP Clerk role allows. The tasks are a great starting point, but they need to be reassigned into new roles. [Fastpath’s free Security Matrix is a good tool to start the role rebuilding process with.](https://www.gofastpath.com/gp2016-security-matrix-0) 3. **Identify mitigating controls.** There are a number of features in GP that can be used as mitigating controls when changing security is not an option. Workflow is a great example. An AP Clerk could be allowed to create vendors, but before the vendor is final, it needs to be approved by a supervisor using GP’s built-in workflow. 4. The first three will significantly improve security. They’ll take some time, but not a lot of additional money. The last step is looking across roles to see where multiple role assignments may have created new segregation of duties conflicts. This is really hard to do without a paid tool. [Fastpath’s Assure tool is the best option for complete segregation of duties management.](https://www.gofastpath.com/by-erp/microsoft-dynamics/dynamics-gp) Links to all the posts in this series can be found at [https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-controller-series-index/](/gp-controller-series-index/) --- ## Lessons from an $8 million fraud - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/lessons-from-an-8-million-fraud/ - Date: 2018-08-28 - Topics: Fraud, Audit & Controls, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I talk to a lot of users of ERP systems and their feeling about security cover the full range. Many are overly complacent, but occasionally I run into the excessively paranoid. Still, it’s important to understand what can happen. This story is a couple years old, but the lessons in it are perfect for medium-sized businesses. The article,[Lessons from an $8 million fraud](https://www.journalofaccountancy.com/issues/2014/aug/fraud-20149862.html) includes accidental excessive approval rights, incomplete segregation of duties, work-arounds to “get things done”, manipulation of multicurrency, and exploiting other user’s passwords. All of this started with an accident. I’ve said before that it’s my opinion that we tend to catch fraud at rough break points. If you don’t catch a fraud at $1,000, your next chance is at $10,000 and then $100k, and finally beyond $1 million. In this case, it started with $1,100. The company had a perfect chance to catch this at around $80k and missed it. There are a lot of little lessons in here and it’s definitely worth the read. --- ## A small security hole in Microsoft Dynamics GP (and a fix) - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/a-small-security-hole-in-microsoft-dynamics-gp-and-a-fix/ - Date: 2018-07-02 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Thanks to some comments by a [Fastpath](http://www.gofastpath.com) user we identified A small security hole in Microsoft Dynamics GP (and a fix). Follow the link for details on MSDynamicsWorld. Why is this a “small” hole? *Primarily because it affects existing users, and only users with access to create GP users. Essentially the Copy Settings functionality available when creating users doesn’t respect security access rights to modify user permissions. If someone is allowed to create GP users, but NOT change permissions, this bug gives them a workaround. They could elevate a user or grant access to other companies by copying access from an existing user.* *Be sure to check out the article for a fix.* Is Microsoft going to fix this? *I ran the problem and a recommended workaround as a fix by the GP team. They agreed that GP works as I’ve described and that the fix described will work. My sense is that they don’t plan to fix this…unless of course there is significant interest from the community on getting it fixed.* --- ## Why Apathy Around Security is More Expensive than Compliance - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/why-apathy-around-security-is-more-expensive-than-compliance/ - Date: 2018-06-12 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article > ![](/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/signing-check_0.jpg) > > Companies need to manage system security, maintain segregation of duties, and perform appropriate security reviews, all in a risk-based framework.

That’s not hyperbole, we started the conversation not long after the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 Cookbook was published. Now our security book is a reality with the launch of the [Microsoft Dynamics GP Security and Audit Field Manual](http://amzn.to/2huGY3u). The problem with security books is that they fall into one of two camps. Security books written by auditors explain good security principles, but don’t offer enough detail for use in a specific application. Books written for applications are often filled with details on boxes to check, but thin on important concepts like mitigating controls. In the [Security and Audit Field Manual](http://amzn.to/2huGY3u), we’ve tried to tackle both. Each chapter addresses a set of security principles and details how those principles can be applied using features in Dynamics GP. The only other security book for GP, Richard Whaley’s excellent T*he Dynamics GP Security Handbook,* has gone out of print, and a topic as important as this really needs it’s own reference. We took a field manual approach to the book’s theme because we wanted something a little different. It’s not that we don’t love puppies and fields of flowers on technology books, but we wanted a book that would stand out because it was dog eared and stained from being in the trenches with GP users and consultants. Dynamics GP MVP Mariano Gomez was kind enough to write the forward and MVP Belinda Allen helped review the manuscript to ensure that it met the level of quality we wanted. Frankly, it was kind of annoying. Belinda kept emailing me about windows in the book that she didn’t know existed in GP, and about how it was making her see segregation of duties issues all over the place. She was kind enough to give me a nice quote for the book, so it evened out. [For those of you who don’t know, Belinda is also a friend, and she doesn’t mind being called annoying if it’s for a good cause.] From Belinda: *“This book is a must read for anyone in charge of Dynamics GP. I learned a lot from it, and I’m sure you will too.”* The [Microsoft Dynamics GP Security and Audit Field Manual](http://amzn.to/2huGY3u) is available from [Amazon](http://amzn.to/2huGY3u) in paperback and Kindle formats. We will have a limited number of copies at Summit and we’re happy to sign them for folks, so stop by the Fastpath booth and say Hi! --- ## Random Thoughts from the GP Security Manual - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/random-thoughts-gp-security-manual/ - Date: 2017-02-13 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I’m re-reading the [Microsoft Dynamics GP Planning for Security manual](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34666) as I work on a GP security book. It’s a great read. I laughed, I cried, and I pulled out some quotes that really stood out for me. - “Single sign-on provides two main security benefits. For a user, the use of a single password or smart card reduces confusion and improves work efficiency. For administrators, the amount of administrative support required for domain users is reduced, because the administrator needs to manage only one account per user.” Page 16, Except of course that GP doesn’t offer Windows-based single sign on. Can you say Fastpath Config AD? Anyone? Bueller? - “When the system administrator (“sa”) logs into Microsoft Dynamics GP Utilities, the application checks to see if the password for DYNSA is either or ACCESS. If either of these is true, the user must enter a new DYNSA password before continuing with the upgrade.” Page 31, context Upgrading from a new releaseThis made me laugh. As an old consultant “access” was a convenient password that you could type with one hand. Apparently it was so convenient that they had to hard code a check for it. - “User accounts must be created within the Microsoft Dynamics GP application to ensure that security is applied to all Microsoft Dynamics GP windows and reports. Microsoft Dynamics GP encrypts the password during the user creation process before it is passed to Microsoft SQL Server. For example, if a user account is created with a password of ‘1234,’ before the user account is created in the Microsoft SQL Server, that password passes through the Microsoft Dynamics GP encryption process and is changed to something like ‘ABCD.’ When this happens, only the Microsoft Dynamics GP application and other applications that use the Microsoft Dynamics GP encryption process have the ability to translate the user’s password before sending it to Microsoft SQL Server. If a user tries to access the Microsoft SQL Server from outside the Microsoft Dynamics GP application, the attempt to log in will be denied because the passwords will not match. For improved security, Microsoft Dynamics GP does not allow a user to change their password to blank or unencrypted.” Page 33 This is really frustrating to explain to DBA’s and network security managers in the context of giving non-sa users rights to add users in GP as explained on Page 35. Chapter 7 (starting on Page 35) is really the holy grail for managing users without using ‘sa’. --- ## Supporting the Dynamics GP Web Client – Get Interfaced; Observations of a Dynamics GP Consultant - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/supporting-dynamics-gp-web-client-get-interfaced-observations-dynamics-gp-consultant/ - Date: 2016-10-03 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article ![](/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2-1.png) From Jamie Harris, info like this is always useful, *Supporting the Dynamics GP Web Client* --- ## Fix Document Attach Issues in Dynamics GP – Boyer & Associates - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/fix-document-attach-issues-dynamics-gp-boyer-associates/ - Date: 2016-02-23 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article > ![](/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/docattach-2-300x228.png) > Document Attach not working in Microsoft Dynamics GP.

I thought I would tackle that in a post. Frankly, it’s been terrific. It’s a fantastic group of people and a great set of products. I’ve spent a bunch of time getting deeper into the products, helping with training, and doing some writing. There is one part that is still weird for me. Fastpath provides free support and training to customers. When I’m on a web connection with a user and I’m training on Assure or Audit Trail, the meter isn’t running. The constraint is their time and ability to retain the material, not the department’s training budget. This is significantly different from my time as a consultant. I’m not slamming consultants. It’s a tough job and I did it for a long time. I’ve been a controller too and that’s both a demanding and a distracting job. My point is that training now feels more relaxed. If we’re only able to cover a portion of the features because of time constraints, we’re happy to setup a later time to continue. If a company hired someone new, let’s get them trained and do a refresher for existing users at the same time. The constraint switches to just time rather than time and money. Audit related software purchases are often triggered by an event. That could be an IPO, an outcome from an external audit, or any number of other events.  Often companies need to get beyond the event before they decide how to get the most out of what they’ve bought. We see lots of people coming back later to learn how to get the most from Fastpath’s solutions. That makes free training a big deal. It’s still weird for me though. Some days I still hear the meter running in my head. Occasionally, I still wake up sweating, worried that I haven’t submitted my hours for the week. Clearly I’m still recovering from some fundamental damage cause by consulting for so long.

She brought up the central point of this piece, but I can’t find that she ever wrote about it. (If she did, feel free to add a link in the comments).  It’s been long enough that her thoughts have mingled with mine and I want to make sure that she gets credit. [![sql-server sa](/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/sql-server.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/sql-server.png) In most cases logging in as ‘sa’ is not required for Dynamics GP. The exceptions are really installing/upgrading products and possibly troubleshooting a specific issue. The Professional Services Tools no longer require ‘sa’. Third party applications should not be requiring ‘sa’ either. The point is that using ‘sa’ should be a rare exception, not the norm. Admittedly, ‘sa’ is incredibly convenient sometimes. So is parking in a fire lane. That doesn’t mean that it’s a good idea. One place where people are often genuinely confused is creating new users. Any user in GP can be configured to add, administer, and delete users. The ‘sa’ user is not required. The [Dynamics GP Planning for Security](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=34666) document, (Page 35, Creating User Records) offers a number of options for allowing any GP user to administer users. Most of these come down to variations on assigning a user to a fixed SQL Server role. The simplest, and most flexible, option is to assign a user to the SQL Server SYSADMIN role and ensure that the user is a member of DYNGRP (Option 2). When they first see this option, most DBA’s recoil reflexively and default to the word “no”. The other fixed role options generate a similar response. The problem is that DBA’s are missing a piece of the puzzle that is unique to GP. DBA’s hate the idea of assigning a user to the SYSADMIN role because designating a user as a SYSADMIN typically gives them total control over a database, but that is not the case with a GP user. The GP user’s password is encrypted prior to sending it to SQL. This means that the password that SQL sees is not the same as their GP password. When a user logs into GP, their password is unencrypted to allow GP to interact with SQL. Consequently, **GP users cannot directly access SQL with their GP login credentials**. It can’t be done. I’ve bolded that line so that you can show it to your DBA. A GP user’s access to the power of SYSADMIN is limited to those tasks in GP that require SYSADMIN rights. The user is constrained in that they can only interact with SQL within the tasks available in GP. Another indicator of this is that changing a GP user’s password at the SQL level breaks their access to GP. As a test for your DBA, create a GP login with some basic inquiry rights. Set that user as a member of the SYSADMIN role in SQL. Feel free to use your test environment if that makes them more comfortable. Give them the GP login and password and ask them to try to use SQL tools to access the database directly. It won’t happen. Using the ‘sa’ user is dangerous, and not just because it offers total control. It also offers a level of anonymity. If multiple users have the ‘sa’ password, figuring out who used ‘sa’ to perform a task becomes extremely difficult, if not impossible. Once a DBA becomes comfortable that setting a few GP users as SYSADMINs won’t give them unfettered access to SQL, this option makes it much easier to limit the use of ‘sa’. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: 2-Factor Authentication for Email - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-2-factor-authentication-for-email/ - Date: 2016-01-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I was doing some testing with GP Workflow 2.0 today and ran into an issue. Emails wouldn’t send. After troubleshooting I remembered that my test system was setup to use my Gmail account and that I had recently turned on 2 factor authorization. For those of you not familiar with this, when you sign in with 2 factor authentication turned on, a second identifier is required. This usually a code sent via text, a code from physical device or a software code from something like Google Authenticator. There are other methods, but the idea is that this provides an added layer of security for logins. GP (and plenty of other apps) aren’t yet setup for 2 factor authentication. The workaround is that you can get a special password for an individual app that doesn’t support 2 factor authentication. That seemed reasonable in this case so I went that route…with no luck. After a couple of frustrating minutes I realized what was going on, the 2 factor password from Google is 16 digits, GP only supports 15 digits in the password field…grrrrr. I checked a couple of other services and 16 digits seems to be the standard for app passwords, so for now, I had to turn off 2 factor authentication. There doesn’t seem to be another workaround for now. Most of you won’t have 2 factor authentication on for your work emails yet, but Office365 definitely supports it. --- ## Microsoft Power Query: An Excel User’s Dream for Data Extraction and Cleansing – MSDynamicsWorld.com - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-power-query-an-excel-users-dream-for-data-extraction-and-cleansing-msdynamicsworld-com/ - Date: 2015-11-09 - Topics: Excel & Office, SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Make sure to register for Belinda’s new, free webcast, Friday, Nov. 13, 2015 at noon ET. > *Microsoft Power Query: An Excel User’s Dream for Data Extraction and Cleansing* It’s part of MSDynamicsWorld.com’s BI series and highly recommended. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Trigger to Show Workflow 2.0 Final Approver on PO - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-trigger-to-show-workflow-2-0-final-approver-on-po/ - Date: 2015-09-22 - Topics: Sales, Purchasing & Inventory, Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data - Type: original article I needed to show the final approver from GP Workflow 2.0 on a PO. You know, an Approved By box with a name or user ID below. This company was using PO approval, NOT requisition approval. Microsoft support said the tables couldn’t be joined in a way to make it work. Ok, Plan B. I know that David Musgrave has shown how to execute SQL using VBA in Report Writer. David and I went back and forth with this a little, but it looked like more work than what should be required for the request so I set it aside. Plan C. I came back to this with a different approach. I wrote an update trigger on the WF30100 workflow table. When this table is updated with a final approval (workflow action 10) the ‘Confirm With’ field in POP10100 is filled with the approver’s ID. Confirm With is located under the expansion button next to the Vendor ID. This field is easily added to both regular and Word Templates PO’s It’s only an insert trigger since a new record is inserted for each change in workflow. Also, the domain is truncated from the user approval, so instead of Approved By showing ibg\mpolino it just shows mpolino. This seems to work as designed in limited testing. It returns the last, final approver. If a PO is final approved and then recalled or changed it goes through the approval process again. This will show the most recent final approver. Since a PO can’t be printed or emailed if it it’s in an unapproved state, this should work just fine. The SQL to create the trigger is below. Keep in mind, this is for PO’s that go through approval, not requisitions. This would need to be modified if requisition approval needed to be shown on the PO. Create Trigger [dbo].[Update\_PO\_With\_Approver] on [dbo].[WF30100] for Insert as Update POP10100 Set Confirm1=(Select substring(workflow\_History\_User,charindex(‘\’,Workflow\_History\_User)+1,20) as FinalApprover FROM            WF30100 INNER JOIN WFI10002 ON WF30100.WorkflowInstanceID = WFI10002.WorkflowInstanceID RIGHT OUTER JOIN POP10100 ON WFI10002.WfBusObjKey = POP10100.PONUMBER Where  workflow\_action=10  and wf30100.Workflow\_Completion\_Date in(Selectmax(Workflow\_Completion\_Date)from WF30100 Where  workflow\_action=10  )) --- ## Big DynamicAccounting.net Announcement - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/big-dynamicaccounting-net-announcement/ - Date: 2015-09-01 - Topics: Development & Integration, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article On the 9th of September a number of things will happen.

This process is a little bit of black box in that you put in your email and password and GP figures out the rest. For local Exchange servers and Office 365 this seems to work pretty well. But what if you’re on a hosted Exchanged server that is not Office 365? Well, that’s not officially supported so you’re just screwed, move on, nothing to see here. Oh wait. You’re not the type to give up that easily? Well neither am I. If you’re on a hosted Exchange server there are a couple of options. 1) Hit the **Show Advanced** button and put in alternate credentials. When you hit one of the windows where you can set your email information (for example: Administration > Company > Email Message Setup) his the Show Advanced button and input an alternate Login ID. Often these are provided when a hosted Exchanged account is setup.  This is the simplest option. If this doesn’t work, move on to option 2. ![Capture](/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Capture-300x141.png) 2) Add the missing information to SQL. What’s happening is that GP is trying to auto detect the Exchange server. If it fails or your login doesn’t seem to work, you really don’t have any other options via the interface. This is what worked for me recently: - Connect to the user’s Outlook Web Access and ensure that the user can log in. - Once you know that works, grab the URL up to and including the .com (or other extension). - Past that into notepad and add /EWS/Exchange.asmx to the end. Office 365 looks like this for example: https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx. Other providers will have different web addresses but the /EWS/Exchange.asmx seems to be standard. - Open up SQL Management Studio and use this to add the user and Exchange location to the Dynamics SY04920 table. You need the user’s GP login, their email address and the server location with the /EWS/Exchange.asmx piece. The code would look something like this: USE [DYNAMICS] GO INSERT INTO [dbo].[SY04920] ([USERID] ,[Exchange\_Address] ,[Exchange\_Server\_URL]) VALUES (‘jdoe’ ,’jdoe@fakedhostedexchange.com’ ,’https://host6.fakehostedexchange.com/EWS/exchange.asmx’) GO The trick is getting GP to figure out the server. This tells GP what server to use and what credentials to pass. If there are more parameters after the .com extension you want to ignore them. Keep in mind that this process ‘could be a challenge if you are regularly adding users who send out emails and you have to add their email info via SLQ each time. Because of this option 1 is preferred if you can make that work. --- ## When are users logging in and out of Dynamics GP? – Etelligent Solutions- - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/users-logging-dynamics-gp-etelligent-solutions/ - Date: 2015-02-12 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Sheldon answers the question When are users logging in and out of Dynamics GP? --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Workflow Conflicts - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-workflow-conflicts/ - Date: 2015-01-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013, GP 2010 - Type: original article --- Featured Post --- If you use the old SharePoint workflow and then upgrade to GP 2013 or higher and decided to use the new Workflow 2.0 functionality you need to disable the Sharepoint workflow or you can get conflicts. In my case, a company had been sold and was moving from a GP 2010 environment with SharePoint workflow to a new server with Workflow 2.0. SharePoint wasn’t installed on the new server but Workflow 2.0 worked fine in testing. Then we tried to test AP and GP would crash with the message than an error had occurred. After a lot of troubleshooting with MS, the problem was that SharePoint was was trying to create the frame around the AP window and causing the crash either in conflict with Workflow 2.0 or because the SharePoint site had been removed. The fix was a SQL statement to disable the SharePoint workflow like this: Use Dynamics Update sy01500 set WorkFlowEnabled=0 Where CMPANYID=X (where X is the company ID) --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Workflow Delegation Part 2 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-workflow-delegation-part-2/ - Date: 2014-12-15 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article --- Featured Post --- In GP 2013 R2 there are elements to delegating a workflow. The first is the ability to delegate workflow for a period of time. I’ve covered that type of [workflow delegation previously.](/weekly-dynamic-workflow-delegation/) The second type delegation of an individual transaction an that  is controlled via a checkbox in the set up for a particular workflow. Checking the box “allow approver to delegate tasks” lets an approver to delegate individual transactions to someone else for approval. Users get links for Approve, Reject and Delegate. I really only see this as useful for those scenarios where someone is too busy to really review prior to approving something (In a meeting, boarding a plane, etc.). It might make sense to delegate this at that point to speed up the approval. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Workflow PO Total Problem - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-workflow-po-total-problem/ - Date: 2014-11-10 - Topics: Sales, Purchasing & Inventory, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2015, GP 2013 - Type: original article --- Featured Post --- There’s a problem when using the new GP 2013 R2 Workflow with Purchase Orders. When you submit a PO for approval through the new workflow the P.O. total is 0 (zero). This is because PO total isn’t available until the PO has been released, but the PO doesn’t get released until it’s approved. It’s a weird catch 22. I’ve really only found one good work around and that’s to have the user who is submitting the PO put the total in the workflow comment. Realistically you need to add the line items to the email so the approver will see the line items and could add them up to confirm the total. You really need both, a total without detail is really tough for the approver. Detail without a total adds to the approvers work because they have to add it up. I’m hoping this gets fixed in GP 2015 but for now this is the only workaround I’ve found. This is NOT an issue for Requisitions. Totals work correctly with requisitions. It’s only a problem if submit PO’s for approval.

A reminder, GP’s workflow was rewritten from scratch in R2 removing any dependency on Sharepoint. Workflow is an approval workflow and they weren’t kidding when they said that. Here’s a scenario: If Buyer = Joe and Subtotal <5,000 send to Julie for approval If Buyer = Joe and Subtotal is between 5,000 and 10,000 send to Ralph for approval. If Buyer = Joe and Subtotal >10,000 send to Sandy for approval. You’d think that you could do a single branch of if Buyer = Joe as a first step and then do sub-steps for the approval but it doesn’t work that way. If you set it up that way someone has to approve Joe as the buyer before it goes out to the next approver. That’s not what people normally want. You can’t have a workflow step that doesn’t include an approval. What you have to do is setup the steps as described above with each step as 1st step. It works just fine but it is clunky to setup. It’s clunkier too if you have a final approval step for accounting attached to each step too. Workflow works fine, but there is some room for improvement. Just remember, you can’t have a workflow step without an approval. With that you’ll be fine. --- ## Change SQL Server From Windows Authentication To Mixed Mode | azurecurve - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/change-sql-server-windows-authentication-mixed-mode-azurecurve/ - Date: 2014-09-30 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data - Type: original article Ian explains how to Change SQL Server From Windows Authentication To Mixed Mode --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Workflow Delegation - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-workflow-delegation/ - Date: 2014-09-29 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article With the new Workflow 2.0 in GP, approvers can delegate approval. After all, even though you can approve via email on your phone, that doesn’t mean that you want to when you are on vacation. Delegation is assigned in GP in User Preferences>Workflow Delegation. You can delegate all workflow types or specific workflow types and you can set time frames. I’m not sure how you delegate without a GP account. It appears that you can pick who you are delegating for but I wasn’t able to really test that and I managed to lock up the window a couple of times playing with it, so it’s a bit of a work in process. Still, the functionality is pretty cool.

My only disappointment was that the approval email didn’t have line item detail. It’s tough approve a Requisition or a P.O. when you only know what the total is. Fortunately, the team included the ability to add it, it just didn’t make it into the default. Here is how you add line item detail to a workflow email. 1) Administration>Setup>Company>Workflow>Email Message Setup 2) Enter your network password if prompted 3) Select a message ID. I’ve picked the default Requisition named: WF Assign POREQ Approval [![Capture3](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Capture3-256x300.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Capture3.png) 4) Click the Document Lines tab and add the fields you want from the box on the left to the box on the right. [![Capture4](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Capture4-300x158.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Capture4.png) 5) Back on the Body tab, place your cursor where the details lines need to go. 6) In the bottom section pick Document Fields, Select Document Line Fields and hit insert. This insert a placeholder for the document lines that will add whatever detail fields were selected in step 4 above. [![Capture5](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Capture5-300x199.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Capture5.png) 7) Click Save to finish. Now when the approval email goes out, it will look similar to this: [![Picture1](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Picture1-300x227.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Picture1.png) For most folks, this is going to be enough info to decide whether or not approve a transaction and having that detail in the email significantly reduces the friction around approvals. --- ## Management Reporter ‘Bad or missing data…’ error | azurecurve - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/management-reporter-bad-missing-data-error-azurecurve/ - Date: 2014-09-09 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article Ian Grieve covers Management Reporter ‘Bad or missing data…’ error --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Remove Security Records - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-remove-security-records/ - Date: 2014-09-08 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article --- Featured Post --- So you’ve finally updated your security from the automatic security import from version 9, or maybe your business has changed and you’ve consolidated a bunch of security settings and now you need to get rid of some roles, tasks or alternate/modified dictionaries.

I thought I’d give you a quick tip. You have to check the Active box to actually activate a particular workflow. If you don’t activate a workflow, the workflow never kicks in. Also, you can only have one active workflow at a time for a particular area so if you’re testing changes and forget to activate the new workflow you’ll keep getting the old one. You don’t have to think very hard to figure out how I came across this…hint, the hard way. Its just really easy to set all of the other workflow settings and forget to check the box. Ten minutes later you pull a Homer Simpson and realize you forgot to make the workflow active.

It’s hard to report off, budgeting is a nightmare, partners burn a lot of goodwill and hard earned money implementing it, and what most users want is a simple way to tag additional information on to GL entry. Something like Multi Dimensional Analysis (MDA). MDA still exists, it’s technically installed with AA, but Microsoft tried to kill it off a few years ago. When users pushed back, MS relented and gave us back MDA, but with a price. MDA was deprecated, no changes, no fixes. Then when Management Reporter came out, it wouldn’t report off of MDA data. That was nearly another death blow, but MDA lives. We think Microsoft should end the toxic experiment that is AA and give us back MDA. At least give us bug fixes and the ability to report off of it via Management Reporter. Make no mistake, this is an uphill fight.

They’ve also done a good job of highlighting that Power User really isn’t a role, it’s an override. If a user is a Power User the system effectively skips the security check. This also means that Power User doesn’t appear as a user with access to specific items when you run security reports. That can be a problem for the auditors. Also, you can’t limit what a Power User can do. One option is to create your own Super User, and while it’s not hard, there are a few quirks. 1) Clear the SY09400 table. [Victoria Yudin has specifics.](https://victoriayudin.com/2009/03/20/sql-view-with-security-resource-details-for-dynamics-gp-10/) This repopulates the table with the current security resources. There is additional code that runs if the newest version of the Support Debugging Tool is installed to add items beyond just forms and reports. 2) Run the SQL Script below. This adds a Super User role and assigns security to all of the items, even if the description hasn’t been added to the SY09400 table. I still can’t swear that this catches everything, but it should and it worked in testing. Worst case, it’s a whole lot easier to start with this than to check everything manually. You’ll still need to assign users to this role, but now it’s a real role, You can report off of this role and remove specific access as necessary. –Create SUPERUSER Task Insert into SY09000 (SECURITYTASKID,SECURITYTASKNAME,SECURITYTASKDESC,SECURITYTASKCATEGORY,DEFSECTASK,CRUSRID,CREATDDT,MDFUSRID,MODIFDT) Values (‘SUPERUSER’,’SUPERUSER’,’Super User task to replace Power User role’,7,0,’sa’, cast(getdate() as date), ”, ‘1/1/1900’) –Assign all security items to SUPERUSER task Insert Into SY10700 (SECURITYTASKID,DICTID,SECURITYID,SECRESTYPE) Select distinct ‘SUPERUSER’,a.DICTID,a.SECURITYID,a.SECRESTYPE from (select distinct DICTID,SECURITYID,SECRESTYPE from SY10700 union select distinct DICTID,SECURITYID,SECRESTYPE from SY09400) a –Create SUPERUSER Role Insert into SY09100 (SECURITYROLEID,SECURITYROLENAME,SECURITYROLEDESC,SECROLETYPE,CRUSRID,CREATDDT,MDFUSRID, MODIFDT) Values (‘SUPERUSER’,’SUPERUSER’,’Super User Role to replace Power User role’,2,’sa’,cast(getdate() as date), ”, ‘1/1/1900’) –Assign SUPERUSER Task to SUPERUSER Role Insert into SY10600 (SECURITYROLEID,SECURITYTASKID) Values (‘SUPERUSER’,’SUPERUSER’) --- ## SmartList to Excel with the Dynamics GP Web Client - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/smartlist-to-excel-with-the-dynamics-gp-web-client/ - Date: 2014-04-24 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Excel & Office, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Bob McAdam offers some help for exporting SmartLists to Excel using the Web Client at http://community.gpug.com/blogs/bob-mcadam/2014/04/23/bobs-blogpipes --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 March 2014 Hotfix: Void Payables Enhancement! – Etelligent Solutions- - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-march-2014-hotfix-void-payables-enhancement-etelligent-solutions/ - Date: 2014-04-09 - Topics: Payables & Receivables, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Sheldon once again shows off the power of Microsoft Connect with Dynamics GP 2013 March 2014 Hotfix: Void Payables Enhancement! --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Unassigned Security Operations Report - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-unassigned-security-operations-report/ - Date: 2014-03-31 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features, Reporting & BI - Type: original article Sometimes when you install a new product for GP, that product doesn’t have a default security setup.

Features like company color coding, support email with screenshots, one-touch Dex SQL Logs and more are a huge help to those of us who work with Dynamics GP every day. However, we need one more thing from you. **Change the****darn** **name!** I don’t know about Australia, but here in the US, I don’t go around advertising that I “debugger” stuff for a living. Saying things like that will get you arrested in Scotland and the Southern United States. Frankly, the initials SDT aren’t much better either. They make me imagine a conversation like this: [Insert dream sequence transition] *Accountant to her manager:* “Oh my gosh! I am so excited. I went to an offsite meeting on Friday and I got the new SDT. My partner gave it to me. I’m really looking forward to some of the fun things that I can do with it.” [Manager takes a step back] Manager: “What are you planning to do with it?” *Accountant:* “Well I was so excited that I didn’t get it all, but they commented about security and protection, some things can change colors (they showed off a really ugly red), and I can “debugger” stuff. I don’t really remember it all. I do know that the next time someone calls in for support on Dynamics GP I’m going to “debugger” them! Plus I can do it remotely! I just need to make sure that everyone has the SDT. That’s my new mission, spread the SDT! [Manager flees for HR] [Accountant stands there confused] The full name sounds like a tool for coders or experts not a tool for users. Even just the Support Tool is better. Poll the community and get some better names so we can improve adoption and generate some real buzz. I mean let’s face it the Professional Services Tools Library gets abbreviated PSTL and is usually pronounced “Pistol”.  Revenue and Expense Deferrals shortens to RED (a movement to cure AIDS and a really good band).  Both of those are cooler than SDT.  Don’t let the folks in Fargo have all the good names! Thanks again for a great tool. Until you change the name I’ll keep giving people the SDT. [PS. Since it’s technically “Unsupported” why not make “Support Debugging Tool” the code name.

Analytics for GP is a set of pre-built, Excel-based dashboards for Dynamics GP 2013, 2010 and 10. The first offering is a Starter Edition Sales dashboard with options for Excel 2013 and 2010.  The goal behind Analytics for Dynamics GP is to provide an easy, inexpensive way to get started with dashboards. Think of it this way, your first car probably wasn’t a brand new BMW, why? Because you weren’t ready for it. You were just learning to drive. You needed something simple, inexpensive and familiar to learn on. These dashboards are built the same way. Get something inexpensive, built on Excel, and learn what your company needs from business intelligence, before spending a fortune and restarting three times to get it right. The Starter series is designed to be extremely easy to use with setup times under five minutes for most users.  It includes analytics for: ● Top Customers with corresponding costs ● Top Items with corresponding costs ● Top Salespeople, Territories and Sites ● Sales over time with forward-looking projection ● Sales mix over time by item class ● A full range of data filters to control information The Sales Starter dashboard is priced at $249 + $49 annual maintenance. [![Sales Dashboard](/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Sales-Dashboard-300x241.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Sales-Dashboard.png) Annual maintenance includes updates, improvements and fixes throughout the year. Full instructions, screen shots and security is included. Security is managed via the Dynamics GP Excel reports security model to make it easy. Changing the name and logo to match your company is part of the setup. Licensing is per company and companies have full rights to modify the Excel files. There will be more dashboards coming over the next several months for other modules and in more advanced forms.  This is just the beginning.

In GP 2013, there is an option to password protect a Word document when sending it out, but it doesn’t work quite the way you might expect it to. The password doesn’t protect against opening the document. It protects against EDITING the document. Essentially, it’s a secure way to send out a Word document without worrying about someone changing it at the other end. The setting is found in Tools>Setup>System>System Preferences. [![Capture2](/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Capture2-300x227.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Capture2.png) Once you elect to password protect .docx attachments, there is a choice to auto generate a password or assign a specific password. If you auto generate a password, the password is not disclosed anywhere. In other words, you can’t give someone the password to open the emailed Word file because GP doesn’t reveal it. If there is a chance that you want to let the end user edit the document, you’ll need to specifically assign a password that you can send out to edit the document. Remember, either way, the receiver will be able to open the document, they just won’t be able to modify it without the password. --- ## Dynamics GP: Web Client Wednesday – Default Domain - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-web-client-wednesday-default-domain/ - Date: 2013-12-04 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Once the web client is up and running, it gets annoying for users to have to enter the domain name and their user ID to log in to the web client. There is an easy fix for this and the details are in Appendix B of the Web Client Install and Admin guide. To set a default domain: 1. Make a copy of the web.config file. 2. Open web.config  in Notepad 3. Near ear the end of the file, locate the **** element. 4. Within **** element, add an additional key element. The element specifies the default value to use for the domain. For example: **Standard format** CONTOSO”/> This defaults the value CONTOSO. So instead of having to type CONTOSO\mpolino, the user can just type mpolino and enter their password. **UPN format** In this format, instead of the user typing mpolino@contoso.com, they can just type mpolino and their password to log in. **No Value** If the key has no value then user will have to supply the domain when logging in. 5. Save the web.config file. --- ## Dynamics GP: Web Client Wednesday – Hidden UI Elements - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-web-client-wednesday-hidden-ui-elements/ - Date: 2013-11-27 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article We looked a couple of weeks ago at UI differences between the web client and the desktop client for GP. I’ve been spending more time with the web client and want to highlight a few other items. - **Distributions** – on a number of windows the Distributions button has moved up on to the ribbon under the GoTo menu, which has moved as well into the middle rather than the far right. A good example is the Sales Transaction Entry window. It was weird not seeing the distribution button at the bottom. - **Missing elements** – There appear to be some missing elements. Close All Windows is one that I haven’t been able to find, but I have been able to add most missing items to the Quick Links window. Close All Windows works fine when added there. - **Speed** – There are some places, loading lists, where I think the web client is fast. I haven’t put a stop watch to it, but I perceive it as faster. Other times I feel a little lag, maybe changing Area Pages. One the whole, it feels about the same and yet different. I can’t quite put my finger on it yet. - **Screen Size** – I have a pretty small laptop with a  small screen. Occasionally I bump into the need to scroll certain windows in the web client. To avoid that, get more screen room and minimize distractions, my first thought was that Full Screen Mode (F11) would be my friend. It generally is, but I notice some cases where the menu bar drops down in IE’s full screen mode and refuses to go away. I assume that this is because the web client is an application, and the clicks are registering in the application, not at the browser level. Clicking the screen in a normal browser session, causes the menu bar to roll up and disappear. That doesn’t always happen when I’m working with the web client. Right now this appears to be IE specific. I haven’t spent enough time with Firefox to confirm this. I can replicate this if anyone at MS is interested. The easiest way to get used to the web client is to use it. It’s a little addictive once you start to play with it. --- ## Field Level Security - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/field-level-security-2/ - Date: 2013-11-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Adam MacIntosh explains Field Level Security.

I’ve got an early recommendation for getting the most functionality out of the web client with the least amount of work: Stick it behind a VPN Here is my reasoning. If you just want people to work in GP, key entries, run basic GP reports, use SmartLists and export SmartLists to Excel, the web client runs fine with direct internet access. Its secured via SSL, reconnects well and generally works like GP. No VPN needed. It gets tougher with SSRS reporting and Excel reports. You CAN expose SSRS to the internet, but there tends to be a mix of issues, technical and political, that keeps most organizations from exposing private reporting to the internet. Excel reports require 2 things to work, access to the ODC connector file and a pass-through connection to SQL. Excel reports can be deployed both centrally and locally, but even with a  local deployment, you’re still assuming that this is a work computer. You have push out the local deployment at some point. (Local deploys go the user’s My Documents area) While away for the holidays, an employee can’t hop on Aunt Sallie’s computer and run Excel reports with a basic web client deployment. There are also going to be concerns with the SQL pass-through need. More so when you consider that the end user isn’t on a PC connected to the domain. My argument is that if you put this behind a VPN, the user would have access to a shared location for the ODC connection and a more secure tunnel for the SQL access. It’s entirely possible to connect via a VPN from Aunt Sallies house or Starbucks or the airport. The IT department has less work to do because they don’t have to secure all of these pieces individually. I’m also not convinced that SharePoint makes this any easier. All the companies I see using SharePoint, provide remote access behind a VPN. The bottom line is this, right now, if you need remote access for users in far flung places the web client works just fine over a direct internet connection. If you need those remote users to be able to really analyze data, the simplest and easiest route is to use the web client behind a VPN. --- ## Dynamics GP: Web Client Wednesday – Interface Differences - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-web-client-wednesday-interface-differences/ - Date: 2013-11-13 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article A couple of weeks ago, Mariano touched on [User Interface Differences](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2013/10/web-client-wednesday-user-interface.html) with the web client and I wanted to add a few more. **SmartLists** As Mariano noted, the awkwardly named MS Dynamics GP is gone from the web client. The main SmartList menu has moved to Administration>Reports. It makes some logical sense, but most users will never find it there. I created a Quick Link and that seemed to help. [![Capture2](/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Capture2-300x208.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Capture2.png) The MS team is open to suggestions on where to put this so if you have ideas, hit up MS Connect and send me the link. I’m happy to vote for ideas. SmartLists are also available in the Lists at the right by module where they are listed as SmartList Favorites. I just don’t think most users grasp the concept of a default SmartList really being a prebuilt favorite. This may be a tough user behavior to change. [![Capture3](/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Capture3-300x241.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Capture3.png) **Shortcuts and Quick Links** Shortcuts seemed to be deprecated in the web client. My existing Shortcuts in the desktop don’t show up and I can’t figure out how to add any. I’ve since learned that existing shortcuts not showing is a bug and the team is working on it. I’m still not sure if you’ll be able to add them, but again, Quick Links offer much of the same functionality and they work fine in the web client. **Look and Feel** I like the look and feel of the web client. The Ribbon like interface is a nice improvement. A few of the web client icons seem washed out or pixelated and the spacing seems larger between items on the area pages. This is both good and bad, some items stand out better but the Area page sections end up with more white space, resulting in more scrolling. Also, when I switch between the web client and desktop client, the desktop client seems much brighter.  I think this is really just a result of color choices between the two products. These items will get refined over time. [![Capture4](/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Capture4.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Capture4.png) **The Verdict** These are all quibbles. I’m still amazed every time I fire up the web client and it just works. I’m working on some heavy duty data entry and other items to really find the edges, but --- ## Tips to Incorporating New Service Packs into the Dynamics GP Client Installation Package – Boyer & Associates | Boyer & Associates - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/tips-incorporating-new-service-packs-dynamics-gp-client-installation-package-boyer-associates-boyer-associates/ - Date: 2013-11-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article Jack Boyer offers Tips to Incorporating New Service Packs into the Dynamics GP Client Installation Package --- ## The Dynamics GP Blogster: Web Client Wednesday – Browser Support - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-blogster-web-client-wednesday-browser-support/ - Date: 2013-11-06 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Mariano embraces [Web Client Wednesday with a look at Browser Support](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2013/11/web-client-wednesday-browser-support.html). My experiences with cross browser support are a little different so read Mariano’s post and then come back here. …waiting… Hey! you’re back. I have the web client running just fine on Firefox 25 with Windows 8.1 so this may be a an issue specific to Mariano’s machine. Safari is more of a mixed bag. Safari on Windows hasn’t [been updated by Apple in a year and half](http://9to5mac.com/2013/09/19/farewell-windows-safari-as-apple-excludes-from-icloud-bookmark-sync/)and appears to be headed toward abandonment. With Safari on a Mac, the web client seems to work just fine. I tested it on a newest generation (Intel Haswell I5) 13 inch MacBook Air running OS X Mountain Lion and everything seemed to run fine. I’ll test it with OS X Mavericks at some point soon. Maybe I’ll go to an Apple store, install Silverlight and run the web client just for fun. As Mariano notes, the Connect pane is actually a browser window and most browsers don’t allow a browser in a browser. That’s why IE requires a specific level of trust and why it doesn’t run on Firefox, Safari or IE. One more note, browsers that don’t support plugins can’t run Silverlight, so they can’t run the web client. This includes the Windows 8 Metro style browser, Safari and Chrome on IOS and Chrome on Android. Also there are rumors that the web client seems faster on Chrome. I’m not a big Chrome fan so do with that what you will. --- ## GP2themax – Helping users get the max from Dynamics GP: Extended Pricing – which Price Sheet Rules? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp2themax-helping-users-get-max-dynamics-gp-extended-pricing-price-sheet-rules/ - Date: 2013-11-04 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Frank answer Extended Pricing – which Price Sheet Rules?. --- ## Dynamics GP: Web Client Wednesday – Repair - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-web-client-wednesday-repair/ - Date: 2013-10-30 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article I started DynamicAccounting.net to record things I had learned about GP that I didn’t want to lose. I still find myself searching the site for things I know I’ve covered at various times. Now I’ve got the web client bug. [Mariano Gomez](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com) and Kevin Racer convinced me that I could do it and now I’ve got it up and running on Azure. As I play with it, I find that I want to document things I learn, so I’m starting Web Client Wednesdays. This won’t be every Wednesday, but I will keep the web client stuff on Wednesdays, to avoid cluttering up the Weekly Dynamic tips. My first tip on the web client is around the install. I managed to screw up the install once. Then I decided to rework my domain and went through the install again. Plus I had to fiddle with the pieces to get everything where I wanted and not end up with an unwieldy we address. In the process I learned about “Repair”. The web client installer takes a long time, so if you decide to redeploy, it’s a time sink to uninstall and reinstall. There is a utility for the web client, but all it looks at is the database connections. If you run into a problem and need to reset ports, change the account being used or assign different certificates, run a repair in Windows Programs and Features. It gives you access to almost all of the install settings and it’s much, much faster. I think there is one screen with a user and password for each client that I couldn’t get to via repair. I ran into this when I changed my domain. That time I actually had to a remove and reinstall. There may be a way to get there, but I couldn’t find it. There you have, repair is your friend, remove and install is not. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Dynamics GP Web Client - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-dynamics-gp-web-client/ - Date: 2013-10-28 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article At the 2013 GPUG Summit, Mariano convinced me that I could setup the web client to play with and Kevin Racer showed me how to make it happen. So I went home and played with it on Friday night and work out the Azure idiosyncrasies on Saturday morning. Before Kevin was back in Fargo, I had the web client up on Windows Azure. Once I got it up it was a weird anti-climactic experience. Once the login screen came up, everything just worked. In other words, either nothing comes up and you’re probably still working through security/certificate issues or it works. There isn’t much middle ground. So now I’m really playing with the web and I have to say, it’s good. It’s really good. It’s familiar enough that most users will be fine. There are some differences, so if you’re still hooked on the old style menus at the top, get over yourself. They are gone. I’ll cover more UI items separately once I feel like I have a pretty good list. I do have a couple of deployment thoughts. A single server deployment with 8 gigs of ram is expected to allow about 60 connections, roughly double that of Terminal Server. An awful lot of companies using GP will be just fine with less than 60 users so I won’t be surprised to see a lot of single server deployments. This may also help adoption because single server deployments are pretty straightforward Once you chose a scale out deployment with more than one server, it seems to make sense to leave enough capacity to take a server down. For example, if I have 100 users, that sounds like 2 servers, 50 users per server. But if I add a 3rd server, I’m down to 33 users per server and I have the capacity to take a server off line for maintenance and still let all of my users login. Also, the deployments scale pretty well with additional RAM so that could be a scale out option if necessary as well. Finally, buy a real, wildcard (\*)  certificate from GoDaddy, VeriSign, etc. You can test with a self signed one, but it’s not worth the effort installing certs in production. GoDaddy is like $100-$200 /year, VeriSign is more like $600, but even at that level,  you’ll spend that in time just trying to get user certificates installed. I’m thinking we should just roll the cost of a cert into the consulting charge for the deployment. The documentation for installation is really good. End user usage and UI documentation still needs some work, but maybe I just haven’t found the right document yet. Bottom line, the web client is in extremely good shape and we need some folks using it to tease out the improvement. --- ## GP2themax – Helping users get the ‘max’ from Dynamics GP: Completed Sales Orders not Moving to History - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp2themax-helping-users-get-max-dynamics-gp-completed-sales-orders-moving-history/ - Date: 2013-10-21 - Topics: Sales, Purchasing & Inventory, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Frank Hamelly tackles a problem with Completed Sales Orders not Moving to History. --- ## Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2: Web Client Short Cuts – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-service-pack-2-web-client-short-cuts-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-10-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article More cool stuff in Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2: Web Client Short Cuts --- ## Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2 Recap – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-service-pack-2-recap-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-10-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article The GP team has a nice Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2 Recap --- ## Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2 Feature of the Day: SmartList UI – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-service-pack-2-feature-day-smartlist-ui-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs-2/ - Date: 2013-10-03 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article New from MS: Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2 Feature of the Day: SmartList UI You can now hide the SmartList selection pane giving you more room to play with.

The built in macro process to import fixed assets is one example. Other times, companies find that macros allow them to avoid security hassles and data concerns by not loading directly to SQL tables. We cover how to build macros for importing data in [both the GP 2010 and GP 2013 Cookbooks](http://www.amazon.com/s/?_encoding=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&field-keywords=dynamics%20gp%20cookbook&linkCode=ur2&tag=polinofamilywebs&url=search-alias%3Daps). It’s also not unusual do load data via a macro using Terminal Server or Citrix. There are a couple of things to be aware of though. If you run a macro from your computer with GP installed on the computer, you are effectively typing (really fast and automatically but still typing) into GP. You won’t be able to use your computer while the macro is running. Most people get that instinctively. With Terminal Server, you are actually running the process on a server somewhere. It’s a different computer so you should be able to use your local computer while it’s running and just keep an eye on it, but it doesn’t always work that way. This is how you make it work. - If you run Terminal Server in full screen mode, when you minimize to move to your local machine the macro will stop. The answer is to run Terminal Server in a window, then start the macro. This will let you tab off and do other things while the macro is running. In the corner of the window is a dash, a framed box and an X. Click the framed box to pull TS out of full screen mode. - If you run the Terminal Server session in a window, your local screen saver won’t make any difference. If the terminal server session has a screen saver you’ll want to disable it. If it kicks in it will stop the macro. I’ve seen cases where the TS screen saver is controlled by group policy and can’t reasonably be turned off. Someone has to sit there and shake the mouse every 10 minutes or so. It’s not ideal. See if you can get it disabled. There are times when a macro makes sense and there are times when you need to use other tools like Integration Manager, SmartConnect or SQL. It’s helpful to know how to get the most out of all of the tools. . --- ## Weekly Dynamic: SOP Void with Password - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-sop-void-with-password/ - Date: 2013-07-15 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features, Sales, Purchasing & Inventory - Type: original article We’ve covered the idea of this before, but I want to reiterate because it’s easily missed. Many of the settings in GP have a checkbox for on or off, so everyone thinks that those are the only to options. In many, many cases there is a password box to the right of a setting giving you a “sometimes” option. For example, I ran into someone who uses a lot of recurring SOP orders. Each month they change some elements on orders and send them invoices. They rightly prevent deleting and voiding an order because they don’t want a recurring order to disappear because it was voided. However, they have other orders that are not recurring or the recurring order get’s cancelled and needs to be removed. This is a perfect case for a password. Allow voids, but password protect the void. To void an order, a user has to ask someone authorized to review and void the transaction using the password. With SOP documents there is an additional control because settings can be different based on the ID (Order ID, Invoice ID, etc.) [![Capture](/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Capture1-300x206.png)](/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/Capture1.png) --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: How to Modify a Security Role - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-faq-how-to-modify-a-security-role/ - Date: 2013-07-03 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Sheldon explians Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: How to Modify a Security Role. --- ## PSTL within Dynamics GP Web Client | Dynamics University - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/pstl-within-dynamics-gp-web-client-dynamics-university/ - Date: 2013-06-20 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Randall Mayer looks at PSTL within Dynamics GP Web Client. --- ## How to Setup Security for a New SmartList | Dynamics University - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/how-to-setup-security-for-a-new-smartlist-dynamics-university/ - Date: 2013-06-19 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article Julie Jensen of Integrity Data writing at Dynamics University explains How to Setup Security for a New SmartList --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 Upgrade: Are you still using converted security roles in your GP security? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-upgrade-are-you-still-using-converted-security-roles-in-your-gp-security/ - Date: 2013-06-19 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Sheldon asked a great question for the Dynamics GP 2013 Upgrade: Are you still using converted security roles in your GP security?.

Most admins hate this and don’t use it because its fundamentally unsecure. However, there are a couple of scenarios where it makes sense. Specifically, if you’re doing auto login for Integration Manager or one of the auto posting inv solutions this can be a good fit in those cases. Just because we don’t like a feature don’t mean that there aren’t scenarios where that feature is useful. --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: How to Run File Maintenance. – Etelligent Solutions - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-faq-how-to-run-file-maintenance-etelligent-solutions-2/ - Date: 2013-05-29 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Sheldon tackles Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: How to Run File Maintenance. --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: How to Run File Maintenance. – Etelligent Solutions - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-faq-how-to-run-file-maintenance-etelligent-solutions/ - Date: 2013-05-22 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Sheldon offers a Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: How to Run File Maintenance. . --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Make sure Debug is temporary - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-make-sure-debug-is-temporary/ - Date: 2013-05-13 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration - Type: original article I got burned by debug mode twice last week. In the first instance a chart of accounts integration that worked previously succeeded but the account type was missing once integrated. The client had left the debugging options on in Integration Manager so every time it ran the windows showed in GP. No big deal except for slowing down the integration. In this case however, that was actually breaking the integration. Turning off debugging fixed the integration. In the second case, a client effectively had debug mode on permanently in their test company. Again, shouldn’t be a big deal. It’s a test company. We were testing electronic bank reconcile and getting an odd error. Searching the error turned up…you guessed it…debug mode. Turning off debug mode fixed the problem. I’m not ragging on debug mode. I’m simply saying use it for what it’s intended for, debugging a problem, and then turn it off. --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 FAQ: Adding New Users - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-faq-adding-new-users/ - Date: 2013-05-08 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Sheldon explains Adding New Users in GP2013. --- ## New version of Dynamics Business Analyzer Windows 8 App has been published to the Microsoft Store. – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP – Site Home – MSDN Blogs - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/new-version-of-dynamics-business-analyzer-windows-8-app-has-been-published-to-the-microsoft-store-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-05-06 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article From the GP team, the New version of Dynamics Business Analyzer Windows 8 App has been published to the Microsoft Store.

After some questions I thought it would be easier just to tackle them on the blog. - How do I setup Excel? For the basic, free usage you need four columns. Account, Debit, Credit and Distribution Reference. If you all you have are positive and negative amounts, put them all in the Debit column but you still need a blank Credit column. - How do I install the free version for GL? Download and open the zip file. Copy the two DLL files to the Add Ins directory where GP is installed. - When I launch GP 2013 after installing the DLL’s GP crashes and closes. What do I do: 1. Make sure you download and install the latest version from the website. 2. Make sure both files are NOT read only. 3. In properties, unblock each file. 4. I you unblock a file and it’s blocked again when you reopen it or if there is no unblock button run the script from this website:[http://dotnet.dzone.com/articles/unblock-files-windows-8-using](https://dzone.com/users/login.html "http://dotnet.dzone.com/articles/unblock-files-windows-8-using") Because these are DLL’s from the internet some versions of Windows block the files as a security precaution. ![](https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false&continue=https://mail.google.com/mail/?ui%3D2%26ik%3Ded440c70ad%26view%3Datt%26th%3D13df174dc083dc88%26attid%3D0.4%26disp%3Demb%26zw%26atsh%3D1&scc=1<mpl=default<mplcache=2&emr=1&osid=1) --- ## Ms. IBIS on Professional Services Tools Library & Software Downloads | Dynamics Care Services - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/ms-ibis-on-professional-services-tools-library-software-downloads-dynamics-care-services/ - Date: 2013-04-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Ms. IBIS tackles Professional Services Tools Library & Software Downloads --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Account Maintenance User Defined - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-account-maintenance-user-defined/ - Date: 2013-03-25 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin, General Ledger & Financials - Type: original article The Account Maintenance window in Dynamics GP has four user defined fields on it. They don’t get used for much, but I’ve got one use case that I think is pretty good. Pick one of the UDF fields and use it to identify the employee responsible for reconciling that account. For cash accounts this is the person responsible for bank rec and reconciling to the GL. For other balance sheet accounts its the person preparing the monthly rollforward. This makes it easy to run a COA based on the user defined field and get a reconciliation checklist for month end. You’ll want to use an integration tool like Integration Manager or SmartConnect from eOne for the initial load and for mass changes (like when an employee leaves or changes jobs). --- ## deFacto Performance Management | MSDynamicsWorld.com - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/defacto-performance-management-msdynamicsworld-com/ - Date: 2013-02-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Make sure to check out the deFacto Performance Management product sheet on MSDynamicsWorld.com --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Drill Down Troubleshooting - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-drill-down-troubleshooting/ - Date: 2013-02-25 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features, SQL & Data - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2010 - Type: original article We had a scenario where someone was testing GP drill downs on a test server. The database had been copied from production but Excel reports had not been deployed in production. They were in the test environment.  The user kept getting a drill down error that indicated that they weren’t logged in to the right company. When we double checked the drill down links, the links were trying to connect back to the production server, even though the Excel reports were properly getting data from test. That was new and thanks to some help from Microsoft we have a fix. Fortunately, it’s a pretty straightforward fix: 1. Log everyone out of GP. 2. Access the Database Maintenance Utility with Start > All Programs > Microsoft Dynamics > GP2010 > Database Maintenance 3. In the Database Maintenance Utility, select the SQL server name for the test environment. 4. Choose the company DB to recreate Views and Procedures for and click Next. 5. for the Product, choose all modules. 6. Select both “Functions and Stored Procedures” and “Views”. 7. Hit Next on the confirmation window. The reason that this occurs is when the stored procedures are created on installation, the drill down link is populated with the server name. Recreating the Stored Procs and Views fixes this issue. --- ## How To Install Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Web Services Runtime - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/how-to-install-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-web-services-runtime/ - Date: 2013-02-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Ian Grieve explains How To Install Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Web Services Runtime --- ## 1000 Downloads of Windows 8 Microsoft Dynamics Business Analyzer – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP – Site Home – MSDN Blogs - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/1000-downloads-of-windows-8-microsoft-dynamics-business-analyzer-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-02-04 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Reporting & BI - Type: original article Clearly we are seeing demand with 1000 Downloads of Windows 8 Microsoft Dynamics Business Analyzer --- ## SQL settings causing GP performance issues | Dynamics University - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-settings-causing-gp-performance-issues-dynamics-university/ - Date: 2013-01-29 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Danny Rose looks at SQL settings causing GP performance issues --- ## IM error: Could not load file or assembly ‘Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms’ | Dynamics University - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/im-error-could-not-load-file-or-assembly-microsoft-reportviewer-winforms-dynamics-university/ - Date: 2013-01-28 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration - Type: original article Dynamics University looks at IM error: Could not load file or assembly ‘Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms’ --- ## Dynamics GP 2013 Web Client – Connect on Home Page displaying an error | Dynamics University - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-2013-web-client-connect-on-home-page-displaying-an-error-dynamics-university/ - Date: 2013-01-22 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article Dynamics University tackles the Dynamics GP 2013 Web Client – Connect on Home Page displaying an error --- ## What is included with the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Web Client in Phase One – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP – Site Home – MSDN Blogs - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/what-is-included-with-the-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-web-client-in-phase-one-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-01-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: original article What is included with the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Web Client in Phase One? Follow the link to find out! --- ## Real Demo Data Needed – Can Your Company Help? – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP – Site Home – MSDN Blogs - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/real-demo-data-needed-can-your-company-help-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-01-08 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article Jay Manley puts out a call for Real Demo Data Needed – Can Your Company Help? --- ## Upcoming Web Client Training Opportunities! – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP – Site Home – MSDN Blogs - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/upcoming-web-client-training-opportunities-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/ - Date: 2013-01-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article As if Dexterity training wasn’t enough, we also have Upcoming Web Client Training Opportunities!

But I digress. I’m skipping the vote this week to reflect on all of the cool stuff we asked for that made it into GP 2013. Things like depreciation undo, printer selection, P.O. prepayments and clearing unit accounts at year end. Oh and there is better SSRS integration and tolerance handling and…there I go again. So I thought that I would leave you with a short tale (I mean story, tail is the thing that wags) that I’m certain, is probably not very true, mostly. This conversation almost certainly didn’t take place in a unnamed hallway in an out of way building on Microsoft’s Fargo campus between an unnamed program manager and an generic Dexterity developer, when Dynamics GP 2013 was merely a gleam in Marketing’s eye. **Program Manager:** So the world is moving to the cloud and so are we. We need to make the future of Dynamics GP cloudy. **Developer**: Um, you mean like MAS 90? **Program Manager:** No, I mean that we have to build a web client for the next version of Dynamics GP. **Developer**: Funny you should mention that. In what little work time I have left after reading all of Mark Polino’s blog posts every day, I had lunch with a robot space alien that gave me a magical box that turns Dexterity into HTML…or maybe I wrote it myself and you’re just not paying me enough. Either way, I live in Fargo so it’s all good, eh. **Program Manager:** That’s great! But we can’t just ship a web client. Users will want more than that. It’s not like we’re Oracle and we can keep raising enhancement fees without delivering any value. Besides, Polino already suspects that Musgrave uses alien technology for the Support Debugging Tool. We’re going to need to add more features as a diversion. But where do we get them from? **Developer**: Hey, what about [Microsoft Connect](https://connect.microsoft.com/dynamicssuggestions)? You know, that website where users can suggest and vote on new feature for the next release of Dynamics GP. **Program Manager:** I keep talking about that but I didn’t know that anyone actually uses it. Dust that off and see what you can find. I know that we need some Fixed Asset stuff. People whine at me about Fixed Assets all the time. Maybe some more reporting thingies. Reporting is like Chinese food. People want more 20 minutes after you give them something great. Oh and we need name for the new product. Something Marketing can’t say no to. Maybe ‘Dynamics GP Super ERP Software of Greatness…with Bacon’? You can never go wrong with bacon. ———— This was definetly, assuredly not how Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 probably got all of those great new features that we’ve been asking for. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Prevent Posting - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-prevent-posting/ - Date: 2012-09-24 - Topics: General Ledger & Financials, Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article This has come up a couple of times recently so I thought I would cover it here. The scenario is a company wants users to have the ability to enter journal entries but only allow certain users to post to the GL. One answer is to prevent transaction and series posting and require batch approval with a password. This works but requiring an approval requires approval for ALL GL posting including posting from subledgers. Another way is to control posting through security. Security to posting is controlled via the “Series Posting Permission” type in Security Tasks. By default GL Posting is included in the TRX\_FIN\_003\* and ADMIN\_COMPANY\_11\* tasks. Yeah, you didn’t see the ADMIN\_COMPANY\_11\* task coming did you? It also includes batch recovery so more users may have this than you think. [![](/img/blogger/0ee64405f297f03f.png)](/img/blogger/2ed16b9efab5421a.png) This why I recommend that you don’t rely on the default tasks and roles. You really need to know what in there.

Until now, it seemed that companies were selecting one of numerous options to meet their EDI mandates, but after hearing a lot about what EDI is not doing for their company, I’m seeing a shift in what they are looking for when it comes to [Dynamics GP EDI](http://www.datamasons.com/dynamics-gp), especially now that we’re on the cusp of the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 release.  With pending future upgrades in consideration, companies are also thinking about how they can best manage EDI now, while also setting themselves up for a potential upgrade down the road, cost-effectively killing two birds with one stone. **From the discussions I’m having out in the community, I understand that GP customers are discovering more and more about what EDI should be delivering to their business. What was once acceptable is no longer the case, as technology has changed to support evolving business needs and Microsoft’s development strategies. Here are the latest trends in what GP users are looking for when it comes to EDI:** **#1 – End to end automation** Pushing a button to integrate a transaction used to be great as it saved time over manual entry.  But now users are asking, “Why do I have to push a button and who is going to do it at 2am?” They want automation of key EDI process that gives them the flexibility and security they’re looking for. **#2 – Manage EDI by exception** GP users don’t want to deal with every transaction, only the issues that need attention. Managing by exception lets the transactions without discrepancies continue without interruption and eliminates unnecessary manual touch points. **#3 – Leverage standard Microsoft integration framework** Writing directly to tables and bypassing business logic is not best practice. By leveraging integration tools such as Microsoft’s e-Connect, users can avoid custom routines that populate data and bypass standard business logic. **#4 – Deeper and broader integrations** Users need more advanced logic, such as touching specific values in a sales order or handling advanced three-way matching logic.  They also need broader document integrations so they can get new documents integrated quickly and easily to avoid jeopardizing trading partners relationships. **#5 – Avoid transaction fees** EDI data is a lot like email – would you pay to send an email? Right, then why pay for transactions when you don’t need to, especially when your trading partners support direct connect? **#6 – Audit the transactions** Too many companies complain about the lack of tools available that can identify issues before they become problems. They wonder why they can’t find out that an invoice was not transmitted and/or received by a partner before it is overdue. They would rather receive an email alerting them when a document has failed. **#7 – Guaranteed support turn-around times:** In the world of EDI where delays and errors can result in unnecessary and costly expense, organizations don’t have the flexibility of waiting for support responses. Responding to these trends is an [innovative EDI technology model](http://www.datamasons.com/technology) that GP users are rapidly adopting. Users are looking to an EDI solution that is based on leveraging the native integration framework of the GP platform while providing all of the EDI transaction functionality outside the application¸ an alternative to other EDI technologies that provide similar functionality inside the application**. With this approach, companies can:** 1.     Implement a single, plug-and-play, truly integrated solution that doesn’t utilize 3rd party translator tools; 2.     Leverage a fully-automated EDI solution with predictable ownership costs; and 3.     Benefit from a non-embedded design and XML data storage within SQL that avoids ERP requirements and customizations, simplifying daily use and providing flexibility when managing ERP update/upgrade projects Learn more about this growing trend in Dynamics GP EDI and what you can gain by expecting more out of an EDI solution. Take a look at how other GP-based companies have successfully implemented a new strategy to increase the impact EDI has on their business and how they have exceeded their expectations in simplifying EDI integration and compliance.

Here is the background. A client was moving terminal servers. Old server and new server were both pointed to the same Dynamics GP source. Users would log in to one terminal server and everything worked fine. When they logged into the other terminal server, GP would lock and their password needed to be reset. It didn’t matter which terminal server a user logged in to, the first one they logged into worked fine, the second one hung and required a password reset to use that terminal server. I know, what does the terminal server have to do with a GP password? Well Dynamics GP uses the User ID and the server name in the ODBC connection as part of the hash when encrypting the user password for the first time. In our case, one of the terminal servers had the SQL Server as a fully qualified domain name and one just had the server name. So the weren’t exactly the same and it broke the ability to decrypt the password. This is also why user logins are case sensitive. The ASCII characters are different for upper and lower case letters so different information is passed when encrypting upper case vs. lower case passwords for the first time. To solve our little problem we made both server names identical in the ODBC setup and then we reset the passwords of the affected users. Huge thanks to Rob Mitchell of I.B.I.S. for the background behind this. He is the one who actually solved this issue.

The last several months have seen a number of unrelated items all point to Fastpath’s products for users of a Microsoft Dynamics ERP system. For those of you not familiar, Fastpath makes security related products for all of the options in the Microsoft Dynamics line. For Dynamics GP specifically they offer: **Config AD** – Single sign on and security management tied to active directory. Yes you can log in to GP using AD. **Audit Trail** – Transaction auditing. **Assure** – Separation of Duties evaluator for Dynamics GP. This doesn’t get enough airtime but for risk junkies it’s pretty cool. **Audit View** – Audit/Security report scheduling and delivery. It all started with the July issue of Journal of Accountancy which profiled ten years of Sarbanes-Oxley. I thought, hey, SOX generates plenty of Audit Trail and Assure work for Fastpath. Thought drifted away into the ether. Then my much anticipated August J of A arrived (they are all much anticipated, don’t read anything to the August part) . Lo and behold, it’s all about fraud and we’re back talking about security control, auditing and separation of duties. [Sidebar: For fun, checkout this this fraud, [described at CFO.com](http://ww2.cfo.com/risk-compliance/2012/08/a-peek-inside-a-forensic-fraud-investigation/), that included the CEO colluding with the HR manager because the CFO “always demanded proper documentation”.] Finally, [MSDynamicsWorld.com](http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/microsoft-retire-dynamics-gp-risk-management-suite-concur-integration-december?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld/news+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) is reporting that Microsoft is killing the native Audit Trail module in Dynamics GP. Frankly, MS bought this functionality and doesn’t appear to have ever spent a dime improving it. I think they got tired of trying to support it.  So in a couple of months span, Fastpath has two J of A issues, not just articles, dedicated to needs and problems that their products help solve and a major competitor exits the business. (By major competitor I really mean inertia and the idea that “It’s included so let’s try to use it”.) Yep, they’ve had a couple of good months. If they are smart, they’ll leverage these marketing gems for a long time to come and hope for September J of  A hat trick. --- ## GPUG – Microsoft Dynamics GP User Group – Jacksonville 8/22/12 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gpug-microsoft-dynamics-gp-user-group-jacksonville-82212/ - Date: 2012-07-31 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article August 22nd is my birthday and I’m going to spend it in Jacksonville with the GPUG – Northern Florida Users Group.

Coming off of the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 sessions at Convergence, and anticipating the GP technical Airlift event in September, I’m with all the other GP professionals anxiously awaiting the expected product launch in December 2012. One of Microsoft’s key goals with this release is to position GP as a more competitive and flexible ERP solution for the SMB market. For these organizations, hopefully GP 2013 will transform their business practices by building a strong foundation that supports growth, increasing operational efficiencies and significantly lowering the burden on IT. But for organizations looking to implement GP 2013, it’s important to not only look at the new web client release and the other 150+ features, but also the other opportunities that come along with a new ERP platform implementation. A critical step during any ERP implementation is to ask the question, “Do my ISV solutions align with Microsoft’s own strategy with the ERP?” I sometimes refer to it as the “like father, like son” approach. If the two solutions don’t align strategically, then I encourage you to take a look at other technology options, for both short and long-term success. When it comes to EDI for Dynamics GP specifically, it’s 100% possible to integrate a solution that aligns with Microsoft’s strategy – a “like father, like son” scenario that: 1) scales to support business expansion, 2) increases processes efficiencies and 3) eliminates unnecessary IT hassles. To achieve this synergy between solutions, whether evaluating your current EDI technology or considering EDI integration at the time of ERP implementation, it’s critical to understand the most frequent approaches to EDI and their impact on your business: 1. Customization – the client / partner develops a one-off, non-commercial solution utilizing a set of tools and custom ERP code. Result: Reliance on a tool set, not an all-in-one solution¸ which creates long-term compatibility and upgrade pitfalls, and challenges scalability to support business expansion. 2. Web-based application – accessible via Internet connectivity and typically requires a lower initial investment than other technology models. Result: Often **requires manual data entry using web-forms and/or websites to make EDI work end-to-end.  Long term cost of ownership can be extreme when factoring in transaction fees, manual entry labor and errors resulting from the duplicate keying of information**. 3. Commercial ISV solution built inside Dynamics – solution is built with full integration inside Microsoft Dynamics GP. Result: GP platform integrity is jeopardized by database and code changes to accommodate each and every EDI request.  Compliance mandates and new partner integration can force unplanned customization and/or GP version upgrades which can disrupt ERP activities, delay new business relationships and trigger potentially costly fines. 4. [**ISV solution leverages the native integration framework of the ERP platform while providing all of the EDI transaction functionality outside the application**](http://www.datamasons.com/vantage-point-edi-overview) **Result: Eliminates unnecessary ERP customizations to enable EDI integration and compliance while simplifying daily use and ERP update/upgrade projects.** The first three approaches have their obvious challenges, especially the customization of Dynamics GP. Applying service packs and version upgrades will be a challenge plus, the addition of other necessary solutions can be compromised.  Only the fourth option – an ISV solution built outside Microsoft Dynamics – aligns with Microsoft’s strategic focus in releasing GP 2013 as a more agile platform to drive real value into your business execution.  Some business challenges are truly opportunities to help improve your company’s competitiveness.  Integrated EDI is a perfect example – taking something that could be a daunting question mark and turning it into a huge labor and cost saving win!  By selecting a well-architected solution that tightly integrates your business relationship transactions without customization – you can be a big winner.  The long-term relationship between your ERP and EDI solution will only thrive if you walk in your “father’s” shoes and embrace the strategic value proposition to which Microsoft has committed themselves with GP 2013. --- ## New Book: Solving the Social Media Puzzle for Microsoft Dynamics End Users - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/new-book-solving-the-social-media-puzzle-for-microsoft-dynamics-end-users/ - Date: 2012-05-31 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article Jon Rivers of Data Masons is out with a new book.

So here goes. When the Support Debugging Tool is installed it adds a camera icon to the Standard toolbar. Clicking this captures all the open windows in Dynamics GP. Other options for triggering screen capture include MSDynamicsGP | Tools | Capture ScreenShots and hitting CTRL-S. When Capture Screenshots is triggered by any of these methods, a window pops us showing the captured windows. Users can choose which screens to include or exclude. Administrators can choose whether to include the Set file and Dex.ini settings by default in the setup. After a user captures the screenshot and select the screens to include, the next step is to click email. There are a number of setups that can determine the behavior of the email, including setting a default email account, the type of email to use (Outlook, CDO, MAPI) and whether or not the user gets to review the email before it goes out. The bottom line is that in just a couple of clicks a user can capture a screen shot of problem and send it off for support. --- ## GP Security Tasks are not always what they are said to be! » Summit Group Software Blog - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-security-tasks-are-not-always-what-they-are-said-to-be-summit-group-software-blog/ - Date: 2012-01-25 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article The Summit Group reminds us that GP Security Tasks are not always what they are said to be!

The problem is that the next user gets changed automatically by Dynamics GP. In Terminal Server or Citrix environments this is a pain because users rarely see their own name. With the Support Debugging Tool this can be changed during login to a blank user, a specific user or even a non-user if you want to leave a 15 character message. In the Support Debugging Tool pick Options | Dex.ini Configuration. - In the Setting or Search String box key SQLLastUser. - Leave Silent checked - Uncheck Log - Add the user or message in the value field.

In the GP interface when you open a Payables Transaction it reserves a voucher number. Once the voucher is saved the number can’t be reused. If the voucher is discarded, GP will reuse up to 1,000 numbers back and properly manage the numbers to avoid wasting discarded voucher numbers. If this gets screwed up you get duplicate PM\_Key errors.The fix is easy enough, run checklinks on Payables and increase the next voucher number in Payables setup. But we ran into a scenario where this kept recurring and it seemed to be related to an integration but we couldn’t pin it down. We sent the details off to Microsoft and they figured it out. GP manages the next voucher and econnect also manages the next number. What seems to have been happening is: - A user would reserve an voucher number in AP - An econnect based integration would bring in more than 1,000 payables transactions. - The user would discard their voucher and release the voucher number - GP would then reset the next voucher number to the discarded voucher resulting in duplicate PM Keys and our error. The kicker is the 1,000 record limit. This seems to be hard coded in GP.  If this happens with an integration of less than 1,000 records, GP works correctly. Additionally, in our scenario, the main AP processing takes place on the east coast and many of the large AP integrations are run from a west coast office. This means that often the timing of the integrations worked to prevent this error. That’s why it was so sporadic. Microsoft doesn’t have a great fix, don’t run large econnect integrations while processing AP or keep AP integrations below 1,000 records. We chose to manage AP voucher numbers ourselves via econnect and not use the econnect process to get the next voucher number. --- ## Using Management Reporter to connect a demo company in Dynamics GP – Dynamics GP Support and Services Blog - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/using-management-reporter-to-connect-a-demo-company-in-dynamics-gp-dynamics-gp-support-and-services-blog/ - Date: 2011-10-17 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article From the Dynamics GP Support and Services Blog comes a look at Using Management Reporter to connect a demo company in Dynamics GP --- ## Support Debugging Tool Customization #7 – Receiving Unit Cost Threshold Validation | Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/support-debugging-tool-customization-7-receiving-unit-cost-threshold-validation-interesting-findings-knowledge-sharing/ - Date: 2011-10-12 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Sivakumar adds to his Support Debugging Tool Customizations with Receiving Unit Cost Threshold Validation --- ## Mohammad R.

Interestingly, we got this error in a number of different places, some folks got it when logging in, others got it while working with GL transactions. When I went to review the issue, I got two messages: GPS Error: 85 and SQL Server Error 1101. The GPS Error 85 can be cause by a number of things but looking up the SQL Server Error 1101 kept bringing me back to tempdb being out of space.

First MSDynamicsWorld chimed in with [Microsoft Dynamics GP 12’s Silverlight Plans Unchanged Despite Windows 8 Plug-In Limitations](http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12s-silverlight-plans-unchanged-despite-windows-8-plug-limitations?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld/news+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) Then Microsoft clarified with Microsoft Dynamics GP 12 Our Windows 8 Vision. Here are my thoughts: - It’s not unusual for the Windows team to be way ahead of everyone else. Even the Office team has gotten caught in the past. - There is a lot of confusion in the marketplace around what will run on a Windows 8 Desktop vs. a Windows 8 Metro UI interface and what will run on an Intel tables vs. an ARM Tablet (and possibly a phone). - If every team at MS changed course mid stream every time a new direction was announced nothing would ever ship and to quote Robert Scoble “Shipping is a feature”. The classic example of this is of course the video game Duke Nukem Forever which took a whopping 14 years to release because they were “Forever” chasing the latest and greatest game engine only to see the release immediately panned. - I think Silverlight is a good choice for GP 12. It’s also kind of funny that after years of picking on Dexterity for being old we now see folks picking on Silverlight for not being new enough. Frankly, with what I have seen of GP 12 so far, it’s going to do 2 things: - Totally rock when released - Well position the product to move forward --- ## SQL Reporting Services Error- Maximum request length exceeded - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-reporting-services-error-maximum-request-length-exceeded/ - Date: 2011-09-19 - Topics: Reporting & BI, SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article iSolutions digs into SQL Reporting Services Error- Maximum request length exceeded --- ## Management Reporter: “Cannot connect to the Management Reporter Server.

So, I figured a quick recap was in order for everyone. The newest certifications are: **[Microsoft Certified IT Professional](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/default.aspx#tab3)** - Applications - Installation and Configuration Candidates are required to pass one to two core exams and two to three elective exams, depending on the product and knowledge area selected. This is the more stringent of the two certifications and there are two variations. It replaces the Microsoft Certified Business Management Solutions Professional certification (as best I can tell. MCBMSP is still listed in Partnersource but the links take you to the MCITP site). The big change is that the Report Writer, Field Service and Modifier with VBA exams have been retired. Since the latest exams for these areas are for version 9.0, users who passed them previously can apply them toward these certifications but the exam is no longer open to new candidates. I find this strange since Report Writer and VBA haven’t changed appreciably since 9.0 so a version 9.0 competency should still be relevant. I think MS should at least update the version number on the test and keep offering it. [**Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist**](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/default.aspx#tab2) Candidates are required to pass one certification exam to become a Technology Specialist. This is not a difficult certification to achieve. We’ve got folks straight out of college achieving this in 30 days. **Notes for You** - The whole certification site is woefully out of date still showing GP 10 in most of the overview sections. GP 2010 specific certifications are available for: - Financials - Inventory and Order Processing - Project Accounting - Installation and Configuration - There is no Management Reporter exam, you’re stuck with the FRx certification - The “Dynamics GP Certified Master” certification is long retired. The requirements never measured up to say a [SQL Server Certified Master](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/learning/default.aspx). I still see occasionally see people using this and what it tells me is that their certifications aren’t up to date. - An MVP is not a certification. It’s a recognition award and it is reviewed and potentially renewed annually. *“With the MVP Award, we thank these inspiring individuals for representing the voice of thousands in the community through the powerful and independent feedback they give us, and for helping our customers maximize the potential of their software.”* --- ## Support Debugging Tool Customization #6 – Removing Voided Documents from Customer Statement | Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/support-debugging-tool-customization-6-removing-voided-documents-from-customer-statement-interesting-findings-knowledge-sharing/ - Date: 2011-08-22 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Payables & Receivables - Type: original article Sivakumar continues to use the Support Debugging Tool in interesting ways.

What happens if year end comes an goes and you missed taking bonus depreciation? Hopefully the accountants will catch it when preparing the tax return and now you’ve got to fix in GP. Some of the obvious solutions won’t work because once you’ve closed the year, resetting the year’s depreciation only works in the current year, not last year. This came up recently and this is best solution I’ve come up with. - Set the date in GP back to the previous year - Open the Tax book for an item that didn’t get bonus depreciation. - Change the LTD depreciation to be the depreciation as of year end from the tax return for that asset PLUS the YTD depreciation. For example: 1,200 asset, depreciation with bonus should have been $700 as of 12/31. YTD is $50. New LTD would be $750. - GP will book the transaction as of the GP date and will reflect the date of the change in the Financial Detail window Bonus depreciation is tax only so this shouldn’t change the ledger. Bonus depreciation should only apply to assets placed in service during the year, not all assets. Don’t forget to change the GP system date back when you’re done. I haven’t found any way to get GP to recalc the bonus depreciation and after I thought about it, you really want GP to reflect what was on the tax return right or wrong. --- ## Recommending to apply the Dynamics GP 2010 June hotfix release if using Project Accounting – Dynamics GP Support and Services Blog - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/recommending-to-apply-the-dynamics-gp-2010-june-hotfix-release-if-using-project-accounting-dynamics-gp-support-and-services-blog/ - Date: 2011-07-11 - Topics: Sales, Purchasing & Inventory, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2010 - Type: original article From Pam Peterson of the Dynamics GP Support and Services Blog, on of the official GP blogs, comes a Recommendation to apply the Dynamics GP 2010 June hotfix release if using Project Accounting There are at least 15 hot fixes for Project Accounting that are resolved in the June update.

This is set in Tools->Setup->Posting->Posting and can be controlled differently for different transaction types. The vast majority of consultants I know (including me) recommend posting by batch, but it’s not always clear to user why so here are my reasons. - Batches allow users to save and review transactions prior to posting. - Batches allow printing edit lists to identify errors prior to posting. - Batches can require approval and/or verification. - Batch posting provides better control over the posting date. For transactions, this defaults to the transaction date. It can often be changed with the arrow on the date field but few users figure that out. - Some transactions like Inventory Adjustments require batch posting to really work right. - Batches can provide another reference or grouping point for searching or reporting. - Batches recover better from errors via Batch Recovery than directly posted transactions. This is a personal observation and I don’t care what anyone says. I’ve more hard to fix errors resulting from transaction posting than from batch posting. Something will go wrong so you might as well have the best chance at recovery. This leaves the average users with two simple options. Ignore all the advice and experience of a bunch of GP consultants and pay us ton of money to fix it when something goes wrong or use batch posting. I’m not worried, plenty of folks will choose option 1.

Usually this means that they make a copy of production and create another company on the same server using the same Dynamics database for both. While this is OK for testing some types of features and transactions it presents a set of problems that companies of don’t realize because a test company on production database shares many elements with the production company and is running in the production environment. For example, changes to reports and forms in the test company can inadvertently affect production. Executing a long running query or testing a new process can bog down the production server as well. Installing an ISV solution in test can make that solution available to production causing significant problems if it’s not properly setup. Finally, if someone foolishly gives out the ‘sa’ password to install something in the test company, they’ve now given unfettered access to the entire system. I’m not saying that companies shouldn’t have a test company on the production server, it has it’s place. But firms should also have a test SERVER with a test companies to play with. Isolating the server makes it easier to test in a truly separated environment with no risk of affecting production. --- ## Friday Fun: Practical Jokes You Can Play With Dynamics GP. - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/friday-fun-practical-jokes-you-can-play-with-dynamics-gp/ - Date: 2011-06-03 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Warning: Playing practical jokes with Dynamics GP can get you fired.

Troubleshooting security errors is simple IF you do a little prep work. Here is all you have to do to resolve security errors. - Install the [Support Debugging Tool](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2011/12/01/support-debugging-tool-at-decisions-fall-2011-and-more/) - Give everyone access to the MBS Debugger User Role - Under the Support Debugging Tool Administrative settings, set Automatic Open Mode to Open on Errors and Warnings. What happens now is when access is denied to a window or a report, a user gets details of what resource is being denied. - The user can click export to send this file to a security Administrator. - The security admin can import the file in to the Support Debugging Tool to see exactly what was denied. - The security admin can drill back to review and set security from the imported file. Once the Support Debugging Tool is setup this is quite simply the easiest and simplest method of figuring out security access issues. --- ## Updated SQL Script for fixing Primary Key Errors in Analytical Accounting | Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/updated-sql-script-for-fixing-primary-key-errors-in-analytical-accounting-interesting-findings-knowledge-sharing/ - Date: 2011-05-31 - Topics: General Ledger & Financials, SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Over at Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing, is an Updated SQL Script for fixing Primary Key Errors in Analytical Accounting --- ## New DynamicAccounting.net Android App! - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/new-dynamicaccounting-net-android-app/ - Date: 2011-05-25 - Topics: Development & Integration, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article The [DynamicAccounting.net](/) Android app has been updated and is completely new. Now you can get the latest news from [DynamicAccounting.net](/) on the go and you have access to all of the Dynamics GP product blogs (like Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP or Developing for Dynamics GP). Plus you get access to all of the GP MVP blogs from folks like Mariano Gomez and Frank Hamelly along with a bunch of other Dynamics GP sites from influencers like Dwight Specht. Additionally, access to  MyGPSearch has been rolled in as a feature as well. The DynamicAccounting.net Android App is 99 cents in the Android Market or you can use the bar code below to get it directly on your phone. The app has be rebuilt from the ground up. Unfortunately, that means that there isn’t an upgrade path for existing users. Sometimes you have to break things to move forward. For now, I have a list of all of the users who have purchased the old version. If you want a refund on the old application to purchase the new one, [email me with this link](mailto://mpolino@mpolino.com) or at the email address on the blog and I’ll refund your Google account.The old version will continue to work just fine but you won’t be able to update or re-download it. Rebuilding the app gave me the opportunity to easily create iPhone or Windows Phone 7 versions but I’m not sure that the demand is there to cover the much higher developer fees from Apple and Microsoft. If you are interested in an iPhone or Windows Phone 7 version [email me](mailto://mpolino@mpolino.com) so that I can gauge demand. --- ## Management Reporter – “An error occurred while retrieving balances from the source system provider.” » Summit Group Software Blog - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/management-reporter-an-error-occurred-while-retrieving-balances-from-the-source-system-provider-summit-group-software-blog/ - Date: 2011-05-23 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Reporting & BI - Type: original article New from the Summit Group is an issue with Management Reporter – “An error occurred while retrieving balances from the source system provider.” along with a hot fix from Microsoft. --- ## GP 12 Web Client Architecture – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-12-web-client-architecture-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp/ - Date: 2011-05-19 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Jan Manley adds a some additional information around customized templates for the GP 12 Web Client Architecture , adding to Mariano’s posts on that subject. --- ## Can’t connect to the Management Reporter server - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/cant-connect-to-the-management-reporter-server/ - Date: 2011-05-17 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article iSolutions also looks at when you Can’t connect to the Management Reporter server --- ## Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing » Missing Object Explorer in SQL Server Management Studio - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/interesting-findings-knowledge-sharing-missing-object-explorer-in-sql-server-management-studio/ - Date: 2011-05-16 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Over at Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing is a look at Missing Object Explorer in SQL Server Management Studio. --- ## System Requirements for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 R2 – Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/system-requirements-for-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2010-r2-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp/ - Date: 2011-05-12 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2010 - Type: original article Over at Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP Pam Misialek looks at the System Requirements for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 R2. --- ## Interesting Findings & Knowledge Sharing » Rebuilding Corrupt Resource Descriptions in Dynamics GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/interesting-findings-knowledge-sharing-rebuilding-corrupt-resource-descriptions-in-dynamics-gp/ - Date: 2011-05-10 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Sivakumar looks at Rebuilding Corrupt Resource Descriptions in Dynamics GP --- ## Mohammad R.

I wanted to weigh in with my own thoughts on out of the box support tools: - SmartPhones today can easily take screen shots of a computer and email them  (or send them to a company Twitter account) for support without a special app, but yeah, an app could be cool. - As Andy suggested, a Smartphone video (or Flip camera) could record the whole process leading up to and including the error and then get emailed for support. - Free screen cast tools like Screen Castle could be used to record and show the whole process as well. No registration just start a session from the web and get a screen cast back. - Of course, the [Support Debugging Tool](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2011/12/01/support-debugging-tool-at-decisions-fall-2011-and-more/) also lets folks take screen shots and email them for support with a single click. We’re installing this on all new GP implementations and upgrades but too many folks still aren’t using it. [DynamicAccounting.net](/) already has an Android App and Mobile site to help people keep up with Dynamics GP. MyGPSearch.com also launched with an Adroid App and Mobile site to help users looking for self support. Anyone else want to chime in on creative options for Dynamics GP support? --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Increase the number of password tries - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-increase-the-number-of-password-tries/ - Date: 2011-01-31 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article By default in Dynamics GP, if you type your password wrong 3 times GP closes.

This doesn’t change any SQL based lockout parameters, it simply keeps GP from closing after 3 tries. --- ## Microsoft Dynamics GP US Payroll Version 10 Releases Service Pack for FICA changes and Tax Updates » Summit Group Software Blog - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-dynamics-gp-us-payroll-version-10-releases-service-pack-for-fica-changes-and-tax-updates-summit-group-software-blog/ - Date: 2011-01-27 - Topics: Payroll & HR, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article The Summit Group is all over the new Payroll Service Pack like auditors on an unsupported entry.

Here is the background. A client was moving terminal servers. Old server and new server were both pointed to the same Dynamics GP source. Users would log in to one terminal server and everything worked fine. When they logged into the other terminal server, GP would lock and their password needed to be reset. It didn’t matter which terminal server a user logged in to, the first one they logged into worked fine, the second one hung and required a password reset to use that terminal server. I know, what does the terminal server have to do with a GP password? Well Dynamics GP uses the User ID and the server name in the ODBC connection as part of the hash when encrypting the user password for the first time. In our case, one of the terminal servers had the SQL Server as a fully qualified domain name and one just had the server name. So the weren’t exactly the same and it broke the ability to decrypt the password. This is also why user logins are case sensitive. The ASCII characters are different for upper and lower case letters so different information is passed when encrypting upper case vs. lower case passwords for the first time. To solve our little problem we made both server names identical in the ODBC setup and then we reset the passwords of the affected users. Huge thanks to Rob Mitchell of I.B.I.S. for the background behind this. He is the one who actually solved this issue. --- ## FIX SQL Orphaned Users (Create SQL Users exists in a restored database in SQL Users) - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/fix-sql-orphaned-users-create-sql-users-exists-in-a-restored-database-in-sql-users/ - Date: 2010-12-20 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Mohammad Daoud has a new post with SQL code to FIX SQL Orphaned Users (Create SQL Users exists in a restored database in SQL Users) --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Print to File Bug - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-print-to-file-bug/ - Date: 2010-11-29 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2010, GP 9 - Type: original article A client recently pointed out an odd bug when printing some reports to file in GP 9. I’ve confirmed that it exists in the GP 2010 RTM release so I thought that I would cover it here. The issue is that for at least the Checkbook Register, if you set a report option to print to file, print the report, click X to leave the window and then accept the save option, the file name changes don’t save. The easy work around is of course to click Save before exiting the window. To replicate this: - Open the Checkbook Register demo option. - Set the destination to File and a local destination. - Click Save and close the report. - Reopen the report option, change the file name in destination and click OK. - Click print to print the report to a file. - Click X to close the report and pick the save option. - Close the window and reopen the report option. - Click the Destination button and see that the new destination file name didn’t save. --- ## Weekly Review: Managing GP Security Without SA - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-review-managing-gp-security-without-sa/ - Date: 2010-11-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article Many firms don’t want to distribute the SA password used with Dynamics GP and for good reason. Sometimes there are other applications on the same server. Sometimes its simply the exercise of a best practice or the desire to monitor who is doing what. Yet, SA is still important in administering Dynamics GP. So what are the alternatives to allow SA type access without using SA? - Make any user a member of the SYSADMIN fixed role in SQL Server and ensure that they are a member of the DYNGRP in the Dynamics DB - Assign the built in DYNSA user to the SECURITYADMIN fixed server role and use DYNSA instead of SA. - Make any user part of the SECURITYADMIN fixed server role and also put it in the DB\_Owner database role for the DYNAMICS DB. In this scenario, DYNSA must be the DB owner of all Dynamics GP databases - Make any user part of the SECURITYADMIN fixed role and add them to the DB\_AccessAdmin and DB\_SecurityAdmin roles in Dynamics DB. In this case again, DYNSA must be the DB owner of all Dynamics GP databases. More detail is available in the Planning for Security guide for Dynamics GP. This section starts on page 37.

To be fair, it’s not a bug, it really is a feature, but that didn’t make the bite feel any better and “bit by a feature” is a confusing metaphor. If you accidentally turn on “Account Security” in the Company->Company setup window all kinds of mayhem ensues. See, account security is designed to work with the Organizational Structure feature to limit access to certain accounts. The idea behind this is that some organizations have a very complex account structure and it makes picking the right account easier if you limit a department to only be able to see their own accounts. But if you haven’t setup Organizational Structures (a pretty common occurrence), turning on Account Security will wipe out everyone’s ability to see and interact with the chart of accounts. Oops. It sounds like a good thing to turn on. I had this happen at a client recently and was stumped as to what had changed. I remember this scenario but it had been a long time. The client is new to GP and so they are not sophisticated enough to have found and turned off security to the Chart tables in GP10. Heck, I’m not sure if I could find that without some digging in Version 10, I certainly couldn’t stumble across that accidentally. A quick trip to Partnersource reminded me of this issue and a checkbox later, we were good to go. We didn’t have audit trails on yet so I’m not sure (nor do I really care) who turned it on but we’ll be adding that to the audit trail list.

It’s your machine.) 5) Blow that screwed up install of FRx a big kiss goodbye before you do a reinstall.

The goal of this feature is to highlight third party solutions that can make a difference in your business. I’ve highlighted [WilloWare’s free Spellcheck](http://willoware.com) before but today we are looking at their [GP PowerPack](http://willoware.com/products/gp-powerpack/) collection. The [GP PowerPack](http://willoware.com/products/gp-powerpack/) is a massive collection of enhancements for Microsoft Dynamics GP. There is a core set of features that include highlights like pop-up sticky note alerts for master records, AP templates for complex AP transactions and bin to bin transfers. In addition there is a set of very reasonably priced tweaks. Again, this is a massive collection of little improvement, all it takes for a couple of these items to be critical for your business to make the PowerPack worthwhile. Visit the site for the full list, they do a great job of highlighting the major features but I want pick out a couple of minor features that can have a huge impact. - **Next Number Generator** – This comes up a lot and it’s easy to write custom code to do this but upgrading a 3rd party product is often easier than maintaining custom code over time. - **Lock Notes Field** – Again a common request is to be able to lock down notes fields. - **Posting Controls** – Set an allowed maximum dollar amount that a user is allowed to approve/post.   Posting Controls are set on a per-user, per-document basis, and are available for virtually every window in Dynamics GP with a Post button. - **Vendor Approvals** –Vendor Approvals can be used to make sure that new Vendors are automatically placed on Hold.  Administrators can specify which users are authorized to remove the Vendor Hold.This is a huge control point to prevent vendor fraud and will make auditor’s smile. It’s also a great way to control 1099 setup. Without 1099 information, an AP supervisor can refuse to release the vendor hold until the information is provided. This will become a critical feature since most vendors will now get a 1099 starting in 2012 and the fines for missing information are going up. The beauty of a suite like this is that a couple of features justify the price and a ton of other enhancements come along too. The list of features is just too long to show here. Hit the [WilloWare GP Power Pack website](http://willoware.com/products/gp-powerpack/) for all of the specifics. --- ## Weekly Review: Process Server - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-review-process-server/ - Date: 2010-06-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article If you find that certain areas of processing really slow down for you in Dynamics GP, consider adding a Process Server. This is just a dedicated machine(s) that allow GP to offload the processing from the client to these machines. So if you find that AP posting takes forever because of the number of transactions, you can easily setup a process server to process just AP posting and immediately free up the workstation for other tasks. Setup is pretty easy. You simply install the GP client on the process server and then use Tools-Setup-System-Process Server to tell GP what process servers are available and processes you want to offload to the Process Server(s). You can have more than one process server and different machines specifications are fine. The process servers don’t have to be dedicated machines but it’s better if they are. There is basic load balancing and the ability to track start and stop times for processes to improve load balancing. Often companies have a few spare PC’s lying around so if nothing else, this is relatively painless to try. Certainly it is easier than upgrading your server and client machines to better handle the load. No, Process Servers aren’t a panacea and they can introduce problems of their own but it’s important to know that Process Servers are an option. For more information, the Dynamics GP Help file actually has a lot of really good information. Simply search for Process Server and start there.

We didn’t have 3 million feet of bubble wrap on hand, but if we could have gotten that for $1,100 it would be a steal. So the value is right, the quantity is wrong and I’m staring at this trying to figure out how to adjust the quantity without affecting the GL (because $1,100 is the right value) and without screwing up anything else. Then it hit me, write the whole thing off. Bring the count and the GL value to 0 and then write the whole thing back on at the correct unit of measure and the same value. It worked perfectly. No SQL adjustments, no inventory transactions that didn’t post to the GL to explain to the auditors. Last cost is correct. FIFO layers are correct.

Now I’m happy to announce the availability of the [Excel based table reference for Dynamics GP 2010](https://app.box.com/shared/duvbizv2m5). This version is in the Excel 2007 and up XLSX format since most people upgrading to the latest version of Dynamics GP will be moving to newer versions of Microsoft Office. There are viewers and converters available if you are on an earlier version of Excel. If you desperate want an XLS version send me an email and I’ll send you one. As before, this tool shows all of the tables in Dynamics GP based on their Module and Series. This versions gets a few enhancements. Specifically, each of the lists already has filter handles, better identification is provided for modules in the core Dynamics dictionary and modules in the Dynamics dictionary get their own tab in addition to having a tab for each series. Some people really get this tool and some don’t. Yes, all of this information is available in Dynamics GP | Tools | Resource Descriptions. Yes, it’s all available in the SDK and the [Support Debugging Tool](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2011/12/01/support-debugging-tool-at-decisions-fall-2011-and-more/). But there are time when I’m writing reports or code and I don’t want to take the time to open Dynamics GP just to find a table name. There also times when I’m not sure what table I need and the search functions in Excel are a huge help. I have to give a big thanks to David Musgrave. New features in the [Support Debugging Tool](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2011/12/01/support-debugging-tool-at-decisions-fall-2011-and-more/) made compiling this file significantly faster. It’s still time consuming but it’s hours not days. Enjoy! --- ## Slashdot Gets it Wrong – No Security Hole - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/slashdot-gets-it-wrong-no-security-hole/ - Date: 2010-05-21 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article I’m starting to get questions on a recent article about Dynamics GP that got picked up by Slashdot. The actual article is at http://www.christopherkois.com/?p=448. Here is the Google cache if the site is down from the Slashdot effect http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http://www.christopherkois.com/%3Fp%3D448&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=lR&sa=G&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&strip=1. In the article the author claims that Dynamics GP use weak encryption and the system is easily broken. The problem with this article is that much of it is ether flat out wrong or wildly overblown. The author appears to have confused the System password in Dynamics GP with the System Administrator and jumped to a number of conclusions because of it. It’s also clear that he doesn’t understand the function of the System password in Dynamics GP. As the article claims, the System password is not heavily encrypted and this has been commented on by a number of folks. I don’t even use the word encrypted when referring to it, I use the term masked. The same scenario does NOT apply to the encryption of user logins between GP and SQL. As noted by [David Musgrave](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2008/10/01/why-does-microsoft-dynamics-gp-encrypt-passwords/) and referenced in the article, the algorithm was even enhanced for v10 as part of Microsoft’s Trustworthy Computing Initiative.  It’s clear to me that the author confused a number of articles and didn’t really understand how they related to Dynamics GP security. (Although David Musgrave’s was really straightforward and well written.) To set the record straight, here is what you need to know: 1) The System password is an OPTIONAL component of GP security. It is recommended, but it is not a primary layer of defense. If security access isn’t granted to a resource through the application, knowing the system password won’t help you. 2) SQL access is required to use the method described to figure out the System password. The article falsely claims that a basic GP user can get access to the Dynamics DB via SQL. That is simply wrong. A GP login cannot be used to access SQL server directly for any of the supported versions of GP. It can’t be done with their GP password and it can be done with the substitution cipher shown on the website. In some older versions of GP this was an option. It’s not even an option today. The only exception is of course the sa password which is fundamentally a SQL password and designed to work that way. If you are giving users direct access to SQL you have bigger issues than them getting the system password. 3) A number of people including myself have shown how to reset the system password. It’s even in my upcoming book so it’s not a big secret as the author contends. As I’ve said, it’s an optional component designed as second layer of defense. I’ve responded on Slashdot and on the author’s post. The author moderates comments and hopefully he is big enough to put my comment through. In case it doesn’t happen or it takes a long time I’ve decided to clarify things with this post. Feel free to email questions about this to me. Nothing like dealing with someone spreading  fear, uncertainty and doubt with false statements to get me worked up on a Friday afternoon. Update: The author has posted updates clarifying some of these points. Sadly it’s unlikely that Slashdot will pick up the corrections. Update 2: [ComputerWorld](http://www.computerworld.com/article/2469282/cybercrime-hacking/oops--microsoft-dynamics-gp-s-huge-security-hole--update--not-.html) picked this up and corrected themselves very quickly. Perhaps now that the original post has been corrected this can die. Kudos to them for the fast correction.

There are a number of shortcomings with this version but I know that most of those have been loudly expressed to the GP team. Most notably, most if not all 3rd parties can’t currently be updated via this methods. This means you still end up touching every client for third party installs and 3rd party updates or service packs. Having said that though, the push parts that work, work pretty well. Given all that, I’m going to keep this topic pretty narrow and just look at rolling down service packs and hot fixes via Client Updates. Before you start, the applicable update needs to be downloaded from CustomerSource and placed on a shared drive accessible to all the users. We’ll start with Tools-Setup-System-Client updates. - Start by giving the update a name, like Service Pack 1. - Check the box to Update Clients at Next Use. This turns a particular update on or off. You can have multiple active updates like a hot fix and a service pack. However, you’ll want to turn off an update if a new, comprehensive update is going to be used. (Turn off SP1, when SP2 is available) - Lookup and select the location where you stored the update. Again, this needs to be on a shared drive accessible to the users. Now, when a user logs on, GP will check to see if the update is installed. If not, it informs the user and gives them the option to apply the update. When they say yes, the update installs. You’ll still want to warn your users with an email, especially since some of these updates are quite large. You’ll also want to manage this a little bit. Nothing like accouting coming to a screeching halt during month end because everyone is updating GP at once. We used this to push out SP1 as part of our upgrade to 9.0 and it really worked well. Very seamless for the service pack. Of course, we still had third parties to add on but hey, nothing is perfect. Speaking of not perfect, Blogger is not letting me add a screen shot so I’ll try to add it later.

I’m working on a set of prebuild maintenance macros for registered users to be available in the near future. As promised in the Macros weekly feature, to schedule a macro to run: - Start GP, don’t log in. - At the Welcome window hit ALT-F8 to start recording. Name the macro and save it to a location where you can find it. - Log in as you normally would. (The macro will record your password. You may want a separate, maintenance only login for automatic macros) - After you are logged in, leave macro recorder running and either perform all the functions you want scheduled or run another macro that you’ve prebuilt that has all the functions you want. This second options adds increased flexibility. You can separate the scheduling macro from the macro used to perform maintenance. - When done, pick Tools->Macro->Stop Recording. - Almost Done. Open the macro (mac) file in notepad. Remove the # DEXVERSION line. (This removes version specific info from the file and makes it more version generic so you don’t get burned by a service pack) - Add the line: Logging file ‘macro.log’ to the top of macro. (This turns off macro dialog boxes) To fire this macro off you need 3 pieces. The dynamics.exe location, dynamics.set location and the macro location. The line to run your macro from a windows shortcut looks something like this: “C:Program FilesMicrosoft DynamicsGPDynamics.exe” “C:Program FilesMicrosoft DynamicsGPDynamics.set” “C:usersmpolinoDesktoplogin.mac” Quotes are required. Create a shortcut with these locations and use the windows scheduler to fire off the shortcut. After that your macros will run as scheduled. Any error dialogs are logged in the macro.log file. Now you can run those maintenance macros while you are at the beach! *Originally Posted by Mark [11/18/2005 01:03:00 PM](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2005/11/weekly-feature-schedule-your-macros.html "permanent link")* --- ## Weekly Review: Setting Up Users Without SA - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-review-setting-up-users-without-sa/ - Date: 2009-08-13 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article In v8.0 and higher you can add users to Great Plains without being logged in as SA. Unlike previous versions, there is an option to create Non-SA administrators and get some separation between database and application security. From page 27 of the MBS Planning for Security in Great Plains guide: *2. Assign the specific Great Plains administrator(s) SQL login account to the SysAdmin fixed serverrole using SQL Server Enterprise Manager.* So by assigning and existing GP user to the System Admin role in Enterprise Manager they can add users without being SA. The full document can be found at [https://mbs.microsoft.com/downloads/customer/GreatPlainsSecurity.pdf](https://corp.sts.microsoft.com/adfs/ls/?wa=wsignin1.0&wtrealm=urn%3ambs.microsoft.com&wctx=https%3a%2f%2fmbs.microsoft.com%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252Fdownloads%252Fcustomer%252FGreatPlainsSecurity%252Epdf) if you’re a customersource member. Is this perfect, no. It requires a SQL security setting and most likely, the help of your resident DBA. Also, the user would still have elevated access to the underlying SQL tables. BUT they wouldn’t have access to non-GP databases on the same server. So the control is at least restricted to within Great Plains, whereas giving SA access, gives System Administrator access to any databases on that server installation.

I’m afraid that we’re going to have to agree to disagree on Extender. Go ahead and start the hate mail. Extender demos really well. I’ve never seen clients so excited about an add on. It addresses a common pain point, simple modifications. It’s easy to use and good number of partners hate it. Not because it takes away customization revenue, it really doesn’t. An awful lot of clients come back for customizations after butchering their data with Extender so really, partners are getting paid twice. The most common problem is that companies really need something else like Project Accounting or Field Server but don’t want to admit it so they hack together something with Extender only to find out that it doesn’t meet their needs. At one large client “use Extender” has become the running joke for how not solve an issue. They make the joke, not us. What doesn’t come out in the demo: 1) The data doesn’t move between modules. If user add notes or features via an Extender window in a Quote in Sales Order Processing those items don’t transfer forward to an Order or and Invoice and they don’t transfer backward to Back Order or Return. 2) Reporting is a giant pain to get right because of the way Extender stores the data. 3) If you delete an Extender window, it deletes all the underlying data. Yeah, it’s a potential audit problem in addition to a data problem. One of my issues with the whitepaper is the “Try it, it’s easy” mentality. It’s too easy to try it, enter a bunch of a crucial information, decide you’d really like a better design, delete the window, poof! all that data is gone. Insert explative here. I like the idea of Extender but it’s still to easy for users to hurt themselves with it. --- ## FastPath Security for Dynamics GP – What it Can and Can’t Do - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/fastpath-security-for-dynamics-gp-what-it-can-and-cant-do/ - Date: 2009-07-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I recently completed phase 1 of a large Dynamics GP Project Accounting implementation. One of the complicating factors was that the client chose to introduce a rebuilt security model at the same time. This meant that we had to deal with new functionality and new security issues at the same time. The biggest hurdle was realizing that the SA user’s security had been significantly locked down. The client uses [FastPath’s Configurator](http://www.gofastpath.com/)for security setup, [Configurator AD -SSO](http://www.gofastpath.com/) for Active Directory based sign on and [Audit Trail](http://www.gofastpath.com/) for security audits. There was some confusion about what FastPath’s security does and doesn’t do so I thought that I would clarify some of those points in this blog post. Configurator – FastPath’s Configurator lets companies setup GP security. It provides an interface to setup security outside of Dynamics GP. This means that a security administrator can setup security without needing a GP login. The interface is also a lot nicer than GP’s interface and it support security settings import and export. The key thing to understand is that Configurator sets GP security. Configurator can’t do anything with GP security that can’t be done from inside the interface. So if there is a security problem, it’s still a setting in GP security. It’s  a security setup problem, not a FastPath vs. GP security problem. Configurator AD – SSO – Configurator AD connects GP users to Active Directory allowing an AD security administrator to assign AD users to roles inside of GP. It doesn’t provide options to change the tasks in the roles only to assign users to roles. Configurator AD – SSO also provides options for Active Directory based single sign on for Dynamics GP, which frankly, is just wicked cool when you see it in person. Audit Trail – Audit Trail provides auditing options on GP tables along with audit reporting options. One of the advantages over GP’s Audit Trail module is that FastPath’s Audit Trail application can audit virtually any SQL application, not just Dynamics GP. That provides the option to leverage an Audit Trail investment across the organization. Despite the confusion our phase 1 go live was amazingly painless. The few issues we had were resolved so quickly that I got to go home early. I don’t get to say that very often so a big congrats from me to everyone involved. --- ## Do You Know…Security? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/do-you-know-security/ - Date: 2009-07-06 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article Security is the latest topic on Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP and their weekly Did You Know series.

This is set in Tools->Setup->Posting->Posting and can be controlled differently for different transaction types. The vast majority of consultants I know (including me) recommend posting by batch, but it’s not always clear to user why so here are my reasons. - Batches allow users to save and review transactions prior to posting. - Batches allow printing edit lists to identify errors prior to posting. - Batches can require approval and/or verification. - Batch posting provides better control over the posting date. For transactions, this defaults to the transaction date. It can often be changed with the arrow on the date field but few users figure that out. - Some transactions like Inventory Adjustments require batch posting to really work right. - Batches can provide another reference or grouping point for searching or reporting. - Batches recover better from errors via Batch Recovery than directly posted transactions. This is a personal observation and I don’t care what anyone says. I’ve more hard to fix errors resulting from transaction posting than from batch posting. Something will go wrong so you might as well have the best chance at recovery. This leaves the average users with two simple options. Ignore all the advice and experience of a bunch of GP consultants and pay us ton of money to fix it when something goes wrong or use batch posting. I’m not worried, plenty of folks will choose option 1.

There’s even a video. The Monitoring and Analytics portion of PerformancePoint has been swallowed by Sharepoint. Planning will get SP3 in the summer and ongoing support but it’s life support and that’s all. So what’s going to replace FRx Forecaster? No idea. Convergence would be a perfect place to ask that question! Management Reporter is supposed to still be alive, but PerformancePoint as a standalone product is toast. Business Scorecard Manager and ProClarity Desktop are also officially toast. The other Proclarity bits migrate to Sharepoint and Excel. Someone one was kind enough to send me [this PDF with FAQ’s about the change](https://app.box.com/shared/24ihty4ssd). I’ve been unable to find it on the web, but it’s marked external so I’m putting it up here. Update: found another site with the PDF link here. I’m disappointed with Microsoft’s moves around Performance Point. They put out a good 1.0 product but it was full of promise for future. Then the update got delayed and our hopes were dashed. Now parts of it are dead. I don’t know what this means for other products that were marked as end of life due to PerformancePoint. Do products like FRx Forecaster and Enterprise Reporting get a new lease on life or not? Is FRx 6.7 going to live forever? (I hope not!) I did hear that is seemed like MS did a keep/kill analysis with all of their products. The Dynamics products seem to have made the keep list but PerformancePoint didn’t.

This window is typically accessed via the expansion arrow on the account number. It is NOT the window used to create or change an account in the chart of accounts. That is the Account Maintenance window. I can sure see how that could be confusing! So it’s safe to give this window to most users.

Sometimes there are other applications on the same server. Sometimes its simply the exercise of a best practice or the desire to monitor who is doing what. Yet, SA is still important in administering Dynamics GP. So what are the alternatives to allow SA type access without using SA? - Make any user a member of the SYSADMIN fixed role in SQL Server and ensure that they are a member of the DYNGRP in the Dynamics DB - Assign the built in DYNSA user to the SECURITYADMIN fixed server role and use DYNSA instead of SA. - Make any user part of the SECURITYADMIN fixed server role and also put it in the DB\_Owner database role for the DYNAMICS DB. In this scenario, DYNSA must be the DB owner of all Dynamics GP databases - Make any user part of the SECURITYADMIN fixed role and add them to the DB\_AccessAdmin and DB\_SecurityAdmin roles in Dynamics DB. In this case again, DYNSA must be the DB owner of all Dynamics GP databases. More detail is available in the Planning for Security guide for Dynamics GP. This section starts on page 37.

Yesterday, I was working at a client (a public, very well known company running Dynamics GP as a financial package) that has a very complex internal environment on which they wished to run Analysis Cubes for Excel (ACE). We had: 1. A GP transactional Server running in a remote data center 2. A SQL Cluster with two physical machines and two virtual nodes setup in overlapping active / passive cluster (A is active, B is passive but B is also active with A as passive). The SQL Cluster would serve as the second tier in the ACE installation running both Analysis Services and storing the Data Warehouse. This means SSIS would also run on this machine. 3. Both were 64 bit OS 4. Several TSE machines, all 32 bit. 5. No domain priviledges, no sa user access, but my doman user id was granted access as sysadmin to the GP transactional server and to the SQL Cluster. 6. And, lastly, the SQL Cluster Virtual Machince (node) which would run the data warehouse, SSAS and SSIS was a named instance rather than a default instance. One thing: I am not a MCSE, nor do I have tremendous amounts of hardware/infrastructure/high performance clustering background, so forgive me if some details around the clustering don’t make sense to a more educated reader. As you know, you cannot install ACE on a 64 bit machine. To compound matters, ACE, by default, won’t install into a cluster because SSIS is not cluster aware. This causes a problem with the ACE install when it tries to create the SSIS packages – you get a “login timeout” error. You can replicate this by going into Management Studio and trying to expand the MSDB folder under the SSIS service on the virtual server. The error is the same. To solve the first problem is pretty easy: Just install the server configuration utility onto a 32 bit workstation or TSE from which you can make a connection to the SQL and Analysis Servers. In this case, we installed the Server Configuration utility onto a TSE running Windows 2003. To solve the second problem is tricky – you basically have two options: **1. Make SSIS cluster aware:** This allows you to have SSIS run as a cluster service and manage the SSIS packages from Management Studion on any cluster node. The best source for understanding how to do this is here: [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345193(SQL.90).aspx](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345193(SQL.90).aspx). However, YOU MUST read the correction entitled “Corrections for registry keys and file system paths” at the bottom of the page – if you don’t it won’t work. There’s one with pictures at: [http://sqljunkies.com/WebLog/knight\_reign/archive/2005/07/06/16015.aspx](http://www.drdobbs.com/database/) Honestly, we couldn’t get this to work yesterday. I think because we didn’t apply the registry entry from the correction and because we had a named instance, we had some problems. Also, DCOM security settings seemed to get in the way. So, we dropped this in favor of option 2. **2. Make SSIS Manageable from the Cluster Node but Not Cluster Aware:** You do this by updating the MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file on each physical node of the cluster to point to the various virtual nodes in the cluster. The best link for this is here: [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942176](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/942176). Basically, you edit the MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file found in %ProgramFiles%Microsoft SQL Server90DTSBinn. Under the Folder node of the xml file, you’ll find an entry for MSDB (that’s the name child node) and “.” (that’s the Server Name child node). Change the value of the server name child node to the fully qualified instance name of the virtual server on which you will run the SSIS packages. For example, SERVERNAMEInstanceName. By making this change, you are telling SSIS that it is running on that particular virtual node and instance, so you can then manage SSIS from Management Studio from that node. Personally, I like this last option better as it is less work and I don’t see where ACE really needs to be part of a high availability fail over scheme for most companies. If the failover occurs, you would probably need to reinstall the package files manually to get the system back up and running. By they way, if you ARE using a named instance of SQL Server and NOT using a cluster, the same technique works to get ACE to install on the named instance. The only problem we had was as follows: we have two virtual machines in the cluster and so created two entries in the MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml file, one for each machine, both with the name MSDB (see the above link and you’ll get a sense for what this would look like). The odd thing that happened inside Management Studio was that I could connect to the SSIS service under virtual server A and see two folders for MSDB, both showing the same package list from A. If you refreshed the service, I then saw the packages on B. Refresh again, and I saw A. Basically, it toggled back and forth. I think that’s because I named them both MSDB, but haven’t finished the testing around that. Once the above is done, you can now run the ACE Server Configuration utility. However, DEFINITELY use the SP2 version of ACE available on partnersource or you may get an error around the creation of the linked server entry on the GP transaction server. Use the cluster virtual server node fully qualified name (SERVERNAMEInstance) as the Analysis Cubes and Data Warehouse server and you should be good to go. I’d love to hear comments, feedback or your experience with this. --- ## SQL Server 2008 Is In the Can - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-2008-is-in-the-can/ - Date: 2008-08-06 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Microsoft announced today that SQLServer 2008 has been shipped to manufacturing.

To be fair, it’s not a bug, it really is a feature, but that didn’t make the bite feel any better and “bit by a feature” is a confusing metaphor. If you accidentally turn on “Account Security” in the Company->Company setup window all kinds of mayhem ensues. See, account security is designed to work with the Organizational Structure feature to limit access to certain accounts. The idea behind this is that some organizations have a very complex account structure and it makes picking the right account easier if you limit a department to only be able to see their own accounts. But if you haven’t setup Organizational Structures (a pretty common occurrence), turning on Account Security will wipe out everyone’s ability to see and interact with the chart of accounts. Oops. It sounds like a good thing to turn on. I had this happen at a client recently and was stumped as to what had changed. I remember this scenario but it had been a long time. The client is new to GP and so they are not sophisticated enough to have found and turned off security to the Chart tables in GP10. Heck, I’m not sure if I could find that without some digging in Version 10, I certainly couldn’t stumble across that accidentally. A quick trip to Partnersource reminded me of this issue and a checkbox later, we were good to go. We didn’t have audit trails on yet so I’m not sure (nor do I really care) who turned it on but we’ll be adding that to the audit trail list. --- ## Mary Jo Foley says SQL Server 2008 in August - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/mary-jo-foley-says-sql-server-2008-in-august/ - Date: 2008-07-09 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Mary Jo Foley is reporting from Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference that SQL Server 2008 is due to ship in August at the same price as SQL Server 2005. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Budget Wizard Bug in GP10 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-budget-wizard-bug-in-gp10/ - Date: 2008-07-01 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, General Ledger & Financials, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article We came across 2 bugs in The Budget Wizard for Excel function recently. Partnersource was being very unreliable so we finally had to give up and ask for help. This issue does occur even with SP2 in GP 10. If you create an Excel budge file using the wizard and then try to import it back in an error message occurs indicating that the number of columns in the sheet doesn’t match the number of columns in GP. Even if you export a blank budget sheet and try to import it immediately back in, it won’t work. The items to review to fix this are: 1) You need 3 lines at the top of the sheet. Two that can be blank and the column header is the third line. 2) If you have renamed your periods to something like January, Feb, etc. they come in to the budget file as dates. We didn’t have any success renaming these as text. What did work was renaming the headings in the Excel sheet as Period 1, Period 2, etc. You don’t have to rename them in GP, just in the Excel sheet columns. Interestingly, changing the column titles to text January, February, etc. didn’t solve the problem either. It had to be non-date related. Our issue was number 2 on the list. It was really frustrating to export a budget and not be able to import it right back in and the error message was really no help. But now we have an answer and so do you. --- ## Performance Point SP1 Has Shipped - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/performance-point-sp1-has-shipped/ - Date: 2008-06-05 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Service Pack 1 for Performance Point is now available for download.

Well, now the list is on Partnersource and I can give you some highlights. - Office Excel Report Builder – A part of Smartlist Builder, I’m now sure how this differentiates from simple using the Office Data Connector that is part of the native Excel reports but you can’t complain that you don’t have reporting options! - Historical Inventory Trial Balance – The promise is that now you’ll always be able to tie your Inventory to GL regardless of your inventory method. I want to believe in this one. We’ll leave it at that. - Contracts – There’s a bunch of additions to the Contract portion of Field Service. - Project Accounting – A couple of nice new features for Project Accounting - “Rapid” stuff – This category has improvements to deployment, configuration, configuration templates and the all important Quickbooks migration tool. These tools may ease new deployment but until I see them, I don’t know how valuable they will be to existing customers. - Performance Point – The connectors for Performance Point are in this release so I’m looking forward to that. - Security – previously released security sychronization tool used to link up security across products like GP, Business Portal and Sharepoint is included in here. - SQL Server 2008 – Feature Pack 1 adds compatibility for SQL Server 2008. There’s a few more things but those were the biggies. Last I heard this was due in the June 2008 time frame. That still seems reasonable. --- ## Big Summer Coming - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/big-summer-coming/ - Date: 2008-04-21 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article There’s a lot coming out this summer. GP is releasing it’s feature pack that include the Quickbooks migration. I was ambivalent about this but I’m hearing good things about the QB migration. One thing I’m hearing is that the templates could be used for other migrations but we’ll see once we get our hands on it. GP 10 is due to get a Service Pack in the not too distant future. This will make sure that GP 10 plays nicely with SQL Server 2008 among other things. Also due out this summer is SQL Server 2008. I think that this is an important release because it’s evolutionary. Folks have had time to digest the significant changes in 2005 and the tools improve in 2008 but not as radically. Perhaps a few more 2000 boxes will get retired now. There is also a service pack due out for Performance Point soon according to [Charlie Maitland’s blog.](https://charliem.wordpress.com/2008/04/18/performancepoint-service-pack/) It’s going to be a big summer for software updates and I’m looking forward to it! --- ## XBRL, FRx & Performance Point - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/xbrl-frx-performance-point/ - Date: 2008-04-10 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article AccMan is reporting that it’s increasingly likely that XBRL (the xml based financial statement/reporting language) is going to be mandated by the SEC for all large cap filers after years of “encouragement”. (That would be “encouragement” Chicago mafia style for those of you still on your first cup of coffee.) I know most of the Dynamics GP group doesn’t fall into the large cap filer group but expect a trickle down to small public filers over the next several years if it happens. I can also see institutions mandating XBRL for private companies to streamline line things like loan covenant enforcement. We’ve this type of trickle down with Sarbanes-Oxley, so I expect it with XBRL too. I still find it odd that FRx supports XBRL, and has for some time, but the first version of Performance Point Management Reporter doesn’t. It’s slated for the next release of PPMR but I got the impression that even that was iffy. It’s time to step it up PPMR! --- ## Early Thoughts on Dynamics GP and SQL Server 2008 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/early-thoughts-on-dynamics-gp-and-sql-server-2008/ - Date: 2008-03-25 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data - Type: original article I haven’t played with the SQL Server 2008 Community Technology Previews but I’ve read and listened to a lot about the upcoming release and a few things really stuck out as being helpful to DBA’s supporting Microsoft Dynamics GP, even without any tweaking of the application for SQL Server 2008. The items that hit me were: - **Resource Governor** – this allows a DBA to define workload limits on the SQL server. For example, if GP shares the server with another application and you want GP to be primary, you could limit the other application to 20% of the processor power and grant GP 80% of the processor. A user on the other app gets 100% of the processing power until someone starts using GP. Then it throttles back to 20%. This scenario solves a couple of problems. Availability is ensured for both applications. Neither one will block the other completely. Also, each application gets full processing power when the other is not in use, so you’re not wasting unused cycles when using only one application. There are lots more applications for this. This is just an example. - **Security Auditing –** SQL Server 2008 is introducing built in security auditing. I doubt that this will be as easy to setup and use as [Fastpath’s Audit Trail](http://www.gofastpath.com/) but it is nice to see a built in option and it will audit Select, Insert, Update, Delete and more at the row/user level. As an aside, Dynamics GP has been criticized in the past for using SQL Logins for security. This is different than say, Dynamics SL where there was a single SQL user and all logins were housed within the app. The benefits of the GP approach come through here. By having users at the SQL level, you can easily audit transactions by user without having to worry about the structure of the application. - **Date and Time** – SQL Server now supports separate date and time data types. Yipee! Don’t expect to see changes in the way that GP deals with dates and times anytime soon but this could be a huge help with reporting down the road. You should be able to transform GP datetimes into more useable date and time data types for SSRS or Crystal Reporting. - **Nulls in BI** – Null values in a data warehouse take up the space of the largest allowed data size defined in the column, meaning that they waste a lot of space. SQL Server 2008’s Sparse Columns allow null values to be stored without taking up physical space. This can significantly reduce data warehouse sizes - **Speed** – It’s faster. How much faster depends but I’m hearing numbers in the 15-20% range. I wish my morning commute was 20% faster. --- ## PerformancePoint - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/performancepoint/ - Date: 2008-03-19 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I’ve spent quite a bit of time with PerformancePoint at Convergence and I thought I’d share a few thoughts. PerformancePoint Server is Microsoft’s next generation Business Intelligence product. The “Server” name is something of a misnomer at this point. Think of PerformancePoint as more of a system or suite of products around information and analytics. It’s closer to a bundle of products (that currently can’t be unbundled) than a server. The “server” part is really driven more by SQL Server and Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007). The core PerformancePoint Server product is geared around Analysis Services in SQL Server and requires MOSS 2007. This is the evolution of analysis cubes and allows organizations deep drill down and analysis of their organization’s data. It’s not limited to financial information. PPS can work with any data that you can get into a SQL Server cube. Obviously the focus around Microsoft Dynamics GP will probably be financial data, but you’re not limited so this could be used to analyze customer growth, headcount or even the performance of your server. To build Key Performance Indicator/Dashboard type views, there is a PPS designer that’s very Office like and should be easy for people to pick up. Items built in the PPS designer will generally be published to MOSS for distribution. There are other options but this is going to be a long overview anyway so I’ll hold off on that for now. The Planning portion of Performance Point allows building scenarios and analysis in Microsoft Excel 2003 or 2007 with a Pivot Table like interface. The connection to Excel includes all of the security from PerformancePoint to allow fine grain control of security within the flexibility of Excel. Finally the Management Reporter is what will be the ultimate replacement for FRx. There’s no sysdata file and it’s all SQL based. Management Reporter IS geared exclusively to financial reporting like FRx. MOSS 2007 is not required to run Management Reporter. GP’s analysis cubes can be imported into PPS as a starting point for your own cubes. However, the team is working on a GP specific import connector due out in the June 2008 timeframe. The AX connector is already available. Similarly, Management Reporter today doesn’t have the GP connections that FRx does. That is also expected around June 2008. Version 6.7 is definitely the last version of FRx but it will be supported for some time to come with service packs. It’s not going away, it just won’t be enhanced. The interface for Management Reporter is much cleaner than FRx but familiar enough that you’ll be comfortable. If you want an overview of PPS take a look at this MS site. If you want in depth info including a trial option, go here. Plus, you can read about how Infoworld liked it. The BI Blog says the folks at CFO Rising get it too. Those are the facts, the rest of this is speculation, opinion, gossip and reading between the lines. Currently PPS is only available as a bundle with all of these pieces. Starting pricing in the $20k range which is steep for some companies in the GP space. However, I’ve also been repeatedly told that they are working on separating PPS to make parts of it, like Management Reporter, more affordable. Expect to see that by June 2008. I’ve heard that there are gaps in the current functionality between Management Reporter and FRx. I had lunch with [Jan of FRxBuzz](http://www.frxbuzz.com/) and she mentioned that some of the gaps are pretty big right now. Little things like no XBRL. Wouldn’t companies that can afford PPS be more likely to need XBRL? I’m just saying. [Jan](http://www.frxbuzz.com/) will have more on the specific gaps in a little bit. She’s the FRx expert so I’ll leave that to her. Ultimately, Forecaster will get the PerformancePoint treatement as well. The Forecaster team is now part of the PPS team but I don’t have a timeframe for that transition. You’re going to hear lots of BI/BS comparisons a la the Infoworld title. I’ve resisted that for now, be thankful. With MS there’s very little middle ground. FRx was pretty simple, but had a shaky core that made it erratic. And Analysis Cubes often seemed like an afterthought. PPS is a bigger beast with a solid infrastructure, but you have to manage that infrastructure. PPS should go a long way toward making cubes and analytics accessible to a lot more people and ultimately, I think it’s got a great future as a replacement for FRx. I’m off to read my Performance Point book now. --- ## Business Portal Security Sync Utility - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/business-portal-security-sync-utility/ - Date: 2008-03-06 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article Via the Dynamics UK GP Blog, there is a Security Synchronization Utility now available for GP 10 and Business Portal.

In the end, his solution sounds a lot like a the way to deal with GP on Vista, install it outside of the Program Files folder. I recently did a test install on a box with Windows Server 2008 RTM and I installed it outside of the Program Files folder to help avoid UAC issues. Of course, it’s my box so I just turned UAC off for my testing needs but it seems that this process may solve other issues as well. --- ## Performance Point Blogging - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/performance-point-blogging/ - Date: 2008-02-10 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Patrick Husting is blogging about Perfomance Point over at the Microsoft Business Intelligence blog.

Well, VS2008 is available now, Windows Server 2008 is due any day and SQL Server 2008 is…delayed until Q3. But that won’t slow the launch events and with everything I’ve seen SQL Server 2008 looks to have a lot of nice goodies in it. But let’s face it, most of you aren’t experts with SQL Server 2005 yet. Many of you are still running 2000. If you wait until Q3, you can be a whopping 8 years behind. Actually that says a lot about how good SQL Server 2000 really was. --- ## GP 10 Security Upgrade Helpers - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-10-security-upgrade-helpers/ - Date: 2008-01-21 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article Ok, you should know by now that upgrading security in GP 10 from 8.0 or 9.0 has been a less than pleasant experience. The new security model is considerably better but has introduced pain into the upgrade. Here’s a small roundup of tips: - SP1 seems to have helped the process go from nada to something - Consider rebuilding security despite a working upgrade. You ultimately wont’ be happy with the results long term results of the upgrade but it will get you live. Resist the urge to put a security rebuild in the terminally delayed Phase 2. Stick in the upgrade plan! - Turn on activity tracking for failed access to windows and reports. This will at least give you an indicator of what access failed post upgrade. - Update: I missed one! From Jim on our [IBIS help desk](http://ibisinc.com/), there is a TASK (not a role) a TASK called defaultuser. Out of the box, the defaultuser task has rights to enter and edit accounts in the chart of account. We’ve seen cases where folks are setting up roles and adding tasks. They add the defaultuser task not realizing that it has chart of account modification priviliges. - Update: Ok I missed two! There’s no security settings import/export so you can’t build your dream security in test and easily migrate it to live. At least not that I’ve seen yet. I have a couple more but they’ve either come from priviledged sources or I need to verify more info. [Cindy Mikeworth](http://www.tas-in.com/site.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/default.aspx) was kind enough to pass along some of this info from the GP Private Newsgroup. I’m careful about what I post from there but her information was generic enough to be useful without violating any agreements. Thanks Cindy! --- ## Code to Force Inventory Adj. Posting to GL - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/code-to-force-inventory-adj-posting-to-gl/ - Date: 2007-12-16 - Topics: Development & Integration, General Ledger & Financials, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article The MBS Guru did us all a favor and [dropped the VBA code](http://mbsguru.blogspot.com/2007/11/using-vba-to-mark-inventory-batches-to.html) to check the “Post to GL” box for inventory adjustments in GP on his website. As he readily admits, this code is common knowledge, I think most of us have written it or something similar. Now though, you can use your brain for something else and just download this code. There is also supposed to be a chunk (CNK) file available for free from GP that does this as well (ask your partner). The bigger question of course is “Why isn’t this included in GP to begin with?”. This issue has been there forever. If you have Dex code and VBA code, you know how to fix it, just make it a check box in the app and be done with it. Don’t add it to the next survey, just fix it in the next service pack. Heck make it 10 only for all I care. Everybody who needs it pre v 10 has one of these workarounds available but fix it for good. I’ll add a permanent link to the code in the Dev Downloads on the right. --- ## SQL Server 2008 Virtual Event - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-2008-virtual-event/ - Date: 2007-12-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article SQL Server Magazine is offering a free virtual event covering SQL Server 2008 on January 24th. I think they mean that it’s an actual event , conducted virtually but what do I know? I do know that the event is free and that one of the free tracks includes Business Intelligence and the integration of SSRS with MOSS. Another track covers SQL Server 2008 performance tuning. (Acronym police: SSRS is SQL Server Reporting Services, MOSS is Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server, not the receiver for the Patriots.) There’s a lot of interest in the Dynamics GP space around BI. The fact that BI means so many different things to different people doesn’t stop folks like me from talking about it. You might also benefit from anything related to MOSS. It is already inextricably intertwined with GP 10 and you’ll only see more with new releases. Your best bet is to embrace and extend it into your organization. (Long time MS watchers will appreciate that last line.)

She posted about built in views in GP that would allow straightforward queries like: Select \* from employees. No, it couldn’t be. But sure enough, there’s a bunch of views in GP 10 with friendly names like ItemQuantities. These views are NOT present in my GP 9 installation but are present in Chic Geek’s v9 install. My GP 9 installation has been through numerous upgrades and I can’t be sure that whatever would install those views was installed. My GP 10 is a vanilla install of everything on CD1. The Chic Geek speculates that these may be Smart Tag related and I doubt we installed the Smart Tag parts with our original 7.0 install. Which means we wouldn’t have upgraded them through 7.5, 8 and 9. Certainly the views are not Smartlist related or they would be in my v9 install as well. This is a good thing for basic reporting. Certainly views aren’t as fast as Stored Procs but they will make report building easier for lots of users. Also, a view should be faster than doing a bunch of joins from within Crystal or SSRS, both in terms of building and running the report. Perhaps now we will finally be able to tell people how to easily find data for reporting. Wouldn’t that be cool! --- ## GP 10 Table Reference is Done - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-10-table-reference-is-done/ - Date: 2007-11-05 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article Lucky for you, the day was full of good football games and I was able to finish up the [GP 10 Table Reference](https://app.box.com/shared/jc90kdsh2k) while watching the games. This is similar to the [9.0 Table Reference](https://app.box.com/shared/hht58tdas1) but bigger. Essentially this should be all the tables from a full install of CD1. Everything is broken down by product and series including temp files. It weighs in at just under 3,500 tables references. If you need a quick reference for reporting or development this should be much faster than using Tools->Resource Descriptions. The file is in Excel 97-2003 format and has the tables both split out by product for easy reference and aggregated for easy searching. It’s Excel, hack it up in whatever way works for you. This is version 1.0. If you find any mistakes please let me know. Building this file is a really time intensive process and there can be mistakes. The previous Table and Column list for GP 10 has now been replaced by this reference in the download links. Enjoy! --- ## AssureBuy and CC Processing - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/assurebuy-and-cc-processing/ - Date: 2007-10-29 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I saw a nice demo recently from the folks at [AssureBuy](http://assurebuy.com/). They have very nice app for processing Credit Cards and other types of payments. The app is dexterity based and doesn’t modify any existing GP tables, so it should be pretty robust at surviving upgrades, service packs and customizations. I asked the questions I thought you would ask and yes it masks the CC info after the initial entry, yes it supports payment acceptance only after shipping as option and yes it supports reusing the same card without reentering the info. Also available are web options for CC processing (if you have a mobile sales force or for occasional items like trade shows), web presentation of invoices to clients and electronic check processing to reduce those trips to the bank. If you’ve been thinking about adding Credit Card processing to your GP solution, take a look at AssureBuy’s offering. AssureBuy is part of credit card processor Blue Pay, a top tier CC processor so they can provide their own gateway and end to end CC solution if that’s what you needs. --- ## Can We Get a Defibrillator for Dynamics Live? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/can-we-get-a-defibrillator-for-dynamics-live/ - Date: 2007-10-05 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Payables & Receivables, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article The Dynamics Live community went, well live, at [Convergence this year.](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2007/03/convergence-catchup.html) That would be March 2007. There were splashy headlines around “MySpace for Finance Professionals”. I [complained in May](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2007/05/dynamics-live-team.html) that they were off to a slow start, averaging one post per month. Now six months later, it still feels like Microsoft is talking at us and often at the wrong level. The experts columns are all focused on larger business issues that we can get in a dozen places. Articles about leveraging hardware, the importance of an MBA and accepting credit cards in your business are nice, but there’s nothing unique here. How about expert columns on how to use and leverage our existing system without buying new stuff and without focusing on the next upgrade? Maybe best practices on how to translate typical business practices or industry norms into a GP or an AX solution? That would be useful. The forums are dead too. Customers aren’t participating with customers despite a poll on the homepage indicating that more than a third of those who responded want to build an online network of peers. This was by far the largest response in the poll. Somehow I don’t think that MySpace looked like this, even 6 months in. All the action is in the [Newsgroup](http://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32). But a [Newsgroup](http://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32) is harder to use than some of the new forum tools available. You have to use [Google Groups to follow via RSS](http://feeds.feedburner.com/MicrosoftpublicgreatplainsGoogleGroup) and that just seems wrong. I think that ultimately, it’s cheaper and less frustrating for the community to learn from each other. But it’s harder for Microsoft to control the message. We even saw it at the road show with folks asking each other questions across the room. The reality is that the community already exists. It needs two things, a better online home and lots of promotion from MS. Not a big splash then go away promotion. Just a regular, steady monthly push to get users to look for help from other users. So how about it Microsoft? Can we revive the Dynamics Live patient and rebuild it? Update: A member of the Dynamics Live team contacted me this weekend to assure me that the site is alive and well. A few things have just taken longer than expected. Fair enough. I assured him that MS is not doing enough to promote the site. We are hoping the patient pulls through. New Update! The Dynamics Live site is going to be just fine. It has evolved into the Microsoft Dynamics Community site. My look at the sites ability to thrive, not just survive can be found on [MSDynamicsWorld](http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/dynamics-ax/put-away-defibrillator-microsoft-dynamics-community-site-has-pulled-through).

MarcB wanted reports printed to a file to be automatically named by GP. This would ease the naming and archiving burden. Well, there is a way to accomplish the end result, just not with the same method. In Tools->Setup->Posting->Posting you can specify that you want a report to always print to a file and name the file. This will give you a report with the same file name every time. This gets you part of the way there. Next you’ll need a little [VBScript (or something else but for this we’ve got a VBScript app)](https://app.box.com/shared/2ebrxpeoxg) that will run regularly and rename the file. For this I’ve built a little VBScript app that simply takes the filename and appends the date and time to the end. So TrialBalance.txt becomes TrialBalance-2007-10-02-12-31-01.txt (October 2, 2007, 12:31 and 1 second). The file simply renames the original and puts it in the same location, so a network location is preferred. Setup the VBScript file to run regularly using Windows Scheduler. This could be every 5 minutes, hourly or once a day. Whatever matches a reasonable frequency for your organization. You can combine multiple files in one VBScript app with just a little copying an pasting. Basic error handling is included so if there’s no file to rename, you won’t see any error messages. Instructions on where to change the file name and path are included in the file along with notes on how to rename more than one report. The script file can be [found here](https://app.box.com/shared/2ebrxpeoxg) or in the Download section on the right. It’s free and you’re welcome to make changes for your organizations. Yes, it works in Vista and not it’s not limited to GP related files. You could use it with anything.

This week we’re looking at some of the settings in the Dex.ini file. This file holds a number of key GP settings. Many of them are available via the program interface but some are not. This is NOT intended to be a comprehensive list of every possible Dex.ini line. But if you think I missed something, add it to the comments and we’ll build a full list together. - SuppressChangeDateDialog=TRUE – Turns off the Date Change dialogue that opens at midnight - Synchronize = TRUE – Forces a synchronization of the chart of accounts format - OLEPath=\serverfolderole – Sets the path for linked and embedded files. This is often set up inconsistently in the initial setup. You’ll need to include your path in place of [file:////server/folder/ole](file:///folder/ole) - NoPrintDialogs=TRUE – Suppress the print dialogue box - ShowResids=TRUE – Make resource ID’s visible in Dexterity - SQLLogSQLStmt=TRUE SQLLogODBCMessages=TRUE SQLLogAllODBCMessages=TRUE – Turn on Dex SQL Logging (all 3 lines) - ShowAdvancedMacroMenu=TRUE – Turn on the Advanced Macro Menu - C:DPS1DEX.INI DPSInstance=1 C:DPS2DEX.INI DPSInstance=2 C:DPS3DEX.INI DPSInstance=3 – Run multiple process servers on a single machine.

(5/1/08 would be 050102008). That should get us started.

The good folks at AirTran were kind enough to host the event and they did a fabulous job. I have to say, the tour was very cool! Thanks Kim! The Dynamics GP Users Group is an organization designed around bringing users together to help learn from each other. Yes, they let in resellers, we can learn from them to, but resellers are not the key, users are. GPUG also functions as a lens to give focus to Microsoft on customer issues. My little voice crying in the wilderness can only go so far but a couple hundred customers makes some real noise. GPUG is one of those megaphones to Microsoft. The central Florida group is small but growing and includes some very talented folks. They are willing to let me join, though, so I worry about their standards. They’ll need a lot more talented folks to make up for letting me in. 😉 ![image](http://www.drivehq.com/secure/DFLogon.aspx?errcode=6&price=0.05&errmsg=The+file+owner%27s+account+has+reached+maximum+download+bytes+for+this+month!&gotoURL=/file/df.aspx/publish/mpolino/dynacct/GPUG_E846/image.png) We had some productive discussions today. A few things that stuck out are: - Excel still rules as a budget tool despite auditor and vendor pushes. Tools like Forecaster and Budget Maestro offer better control but lack the simple familiarity of a spreadsheet. One member mentioned that they are going back to Excel and I’ve been considering it. - There is an inconsistent issue with GP10 upgrades. Security is not migrating to the new security model and security is in fact being wiped clean. For one reseller they are batting 0 for 3 on security migration for GP 10 upgrades. I know what you’re thinking, that’s very consistent but MS insists that it’s not happening with all upgrades, there’s just no pattern yet. If you are going to GP 10 soon, test the heck out of the upgrade. - Upgrades aside, GP 10 rocks. There’s a learning curve from 9.0 but on the whole, it will be worth it. Just don’t do it yet if have many users or complex security. - LOTS more people are heavily using integration manager than I realized. Nobody’s ever written an IM book. Every time I think about doing it realize how much work it would really be and then the desire passes. Maybe I need to revisit that or release pieces as a serial rather than a book. - Resellers again confirmed that support for version 8 is being extended to October 2009. That’s enough for me. I don’t know when we’ll see official confirmation but this one is real in my mind. Oh, there was a lot more, but well, you missed it. You had to be there. Too bad! If want to join the conversation for help, advice, ideas or just because you have an opinion, give the [GPUG folks a shout](https://www.gpug.com/) or attend the GPUG summit in Redmond in September. You don’t have to be in central Florida, groups are springing up all over. Update: The GPUG Summit will be providing CPE credits for those who attend. This is always a subject close to my heart and my wallet. --- ## You’ve Got Another Year on SQL Server 2005 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/youve-got-another-year-on-sql-server-2005/ - Date: 2007-07-12 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Mary Jo Foley is reporting that while SQL Server 2008 is “launching” February 28, 2008, it won’t actually be released to manufacturing until Q2 of 2008.

The article is full of holes so I’m not sure if this refers to new clients only. (Someone in the article is upgrading from the non-existent version 8.5 and if your partner is open on Sunday somebody let me know.) I suspect it’s new clients only with upgrade disks shipping soon. The [Dynamics website](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics/default.aspx) is touting GP10’s enhancements but doesn’t discuss availability. The Solomon guys appear to be getting the shaft again. GP 10 is touted on the Dynamics main page and the new SL 7 isn’t mentioned until I logged on to Customersource. GP news has been light lately as we build up to the release of Version 10 and I took that time to go on vacation. I’m back now, rested and ready to give the site a good kick start. Update: Mary Jo Foley says it’s loose. She also reminds us that GP is going to an 18-24 month release schedule. That means that you’ll have time actually apply a service pack or two before the next upgrade. But what will they talk about at Convergence? --- ## SQL Server 2005 Performance Dashboard - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-2005-performance-dashboard/ - Date: 2007-06-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data, Reporting & BI - Type: original article For those of you looking to tune the SQL performance of your GP installation, take a look at the new [Performance Dashboard](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22602) from Microsoft. This is a free add on to SQL Server 2005 but you have to be running SP2. So what is SQL Server 2005 Performance Dashboard? I’ll let the MS folks tell you: *The SQL Server 2005 Performance Dashboard Reports are Reporting Services report files designed to be used with the Custom Reports feature introduced in the SP2 release of SQL Server Management Studio.* *The reports allow a database administrator to quickly identify whether there is a current bottleneck on their system, and if a bottleneck is present, capture additional diagnostic data that may be necessary to resolve the problem.* *For example, if the system is experiencing waits for disk IO the dashboard allows the user to quickly see which sessions are performing the most IO, what query is running on each session and the query plan for each statement.* Common performance problems that the dashboard reports may help to resolve include: – CPU bottlenecks (and what queries are consuming the most CPU) – IO bottlenecks (and what queries are performing the most IO). – Index recommendations generated by the query optimizer (missing indexes) – Blocking – Latch contention *The information captured in the reports is retrieved from SQL Server’s dynamic management views. There is no additional tracing or data capture required, which means the information is always available and this is a very inexpensive means of monitoring your server. Reporting Services is not required to be installed to use the* *Performance Dashboard Reports.* Sounds pretty cool doesn’t it! It looks good too! The folks at SQL-Server-Performance.com have all the details on installing and using Performance Dashboard with lots of screen shots. You can get the [Performance Dashboard](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=22602) from Microsoft as well as [SQL Server 2005 SP2.](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sqlserver/bb426877.aspx) --- ## Little Fixes - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/little-fixes/ - Date: 2007-05-31 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article > DynamicAccounting.net moved to a new server over the weekend and in the process, the permissions for Downloads broke.

We had the luxury of all those years with SQL2K that I don’t know what I’m going to do with new releases. But it looks like the next version of SQL Server is scheduled for 2008. It’s all part of Microsoft’s Business Intelligence push. Expect to see SQL connected to your ERP as the backend, SQL Reporting Services and Office as the front end and Sharepoint in the middle. My take, it’s still not easy enough to set all this stuff, make it work right and make it easy for a power user. Maybe in 2008. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Uninstalling FRx - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-uninstalling-frx/ - Date: 2007-05-09 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features, Reporting & BI - Type: original article FRx is one of the flakiest pieces of software in the GP suite. Integration Manager often competes for this prize but FRx is still the repeat champ. After installing GP without problems on Windows Vista Business, I’m stuck with an FRx installation that won’t load. Yes SP9 (9 service packs!) is installed. In shame I finally slinked over to tech support. First step, uninstall FRx. It’s more complicated than you think to really get rid of it so here are the steps. Next week, I’ll explain how I finally got FRx running on Vista (hopefully!). Backup any existing Sysdata directories before you start please. I don’t want to hear any whining! **To Uninstall FRx on XP or Vista:** 1) Uninstall the app via Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features 2) Delete the FRx installation directory 3) Delete/Rename the FRx.ini file in the Windows Directory 4) Delete the registry key HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINE | Software | FRx Software (Backup the registry first or roll the registry dice. It’s your machine.) 5) Blow that screwed up install of FRx a big kiss goodbye before you do a reinstall. --- ## GP on a VPC - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-on-a-vpc/ - Date: 2007-04-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Curt, a moderator over at Mark Minasi’s Reader Forum has a post on how he used GP in a Virtual PC to create an identical test environment of an existing GP server. The post is a bit technical but for the Admin’s among the group, it’s another test server option for you. --- ## GP 10: Workflow - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-10-workflow/ - Date: 2007-03-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article I went to the workflow session yesterday because I really want workflow and I really want it to work. I was worried that this was a half baked first step. With everything I saw, it looks like a really good feature. There are a few limitations that will cause problems for some people but unlike some earlier workflow attempts from GP (anyone remember the original eRequisition?) it looks really well fleshed out. I found that I was so intrigued that I hardly took any notes so here’s what I remember. - The flow was extremely flexible with lots of options for approvals. Especially prevelant were email notifications and approvals including rolling up emails over a period (say once a day) instead of having to get an email for every transaction. - Lot of 2nd gen features like delegation, expiration and notifcation up the chain if an item is not approved or rejected in a timely manner. - Lots of approval options including email, web page (Sharepoint) and inside the app. - Tight ties to sharepoint including being able to review the transaction from a web page. It’s entirely possible to have approval users who never touch the GP app. They simply get an email, review the transaction online via a link in the email and approve online. The few gotcha’s were: - You have to be running MOSS. No not the furry tree stuff, Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server (System? who can remember). In fact, for so much of this new stuff, Sharepoint is the glue, the underpinnings, the framework, the engine. Pick your metaphone but while you’re doing that. Learn Sharepoint. - MOSS requires a license per user and a server license but with GP the server license is being waived so save a couple grand. - Because of the MOSS tie in, you need a separate server for MOSS. They say you can’t stick it on your SQL box. - Finally, we learned in Q&A that you can turn delegation (letting someone else approve for me for a period of time) on or off but you can’t set rules about downstream delegation. So a CFO could delegate approval to a Jr. A/P Clerk which is a Sarbanes-Oxley no-no. All in all I was pretty happy with what I saw. The MOSS part is going to start to complicate things but I’ll come back to that in another post. --- ## GP 10: Role Based Security - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-10-role-based-security/ - Date: 2007-03-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article For as good as the keynotes were, there’s still some confusion around roles based security. So I went to the session and I have to say that I was a little disappointed. This is a sore area and while version 10 makes some big strides, the Q&A afterwards left me with more questions than answers. What I do know is: **It’s Role Based**There are operations (lowest level, a window, report, etc.) for example an AP Window that are grouped into tasks like processing AP Which are grouped into a role like an AP clerk. How is this different from classes? Well the third level makes huge difference. The task is essentially a function. So I can build security functions (enter AP, Cut AP checks, Post AP, etc) that are pretty independent of the user and then as the role changes, I can give and take away tasks without having to drill down to the operation level. So an if an AP clerk gets promoted to an AP supervisor, I just change the role. But if an AP clerk is now going to post their own AP, I simply add a task to the role. There’s no delegation per se, but it should be easy to do for things like vacations. Simply add a task to a role during the vacation period, then remove it. Roles can be different in different companies and there is lots of copying functions to make your life easier. **It’s Pessimistic Not Optimistic**GP 10 security assumes you can’t do anything and requires explicit permission to an operation. This is a change from Optimistic security in previous versions that required specific removal of permission. You will need to convert security during the upgrade (or rebuild all your users). Users get their own role during the upgrade that keeps all their existing security allowing you to migrate users to new roles in a more leisurely manner. **Reporting is Better** Reporting appears to be better in GP 10. You may actually be able to give your auditor a security report. Then again, it was fun handing them a 500 page security printout. The looks were priceless! **What’s Not in There** In the Q&A we learned that currently there is no import/export for security settings. As one user mentioned, they use this to setup security in a test environment and then migrate the settings via import/export to reduce security related user calls. I’m guessing this will be back in by the final version. I asked about speed. As much as I love the GUI for Advanced Security, it’s slow. I know why it’s slow. I completely understand, but it’s still slow. There didn’t seem to be a recognition from the GP team that speed was an issue, even though the rest of the crowd clearly thought so. Bottom Line, it looks much better. I still worry that the team doesn’t quite get it but it’s closer to the right solution. --- ## Convergence Catchup - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/convergence-catchup/ - Date: 2007-03-13 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article For those of you not at Convergence it’s been a busy few days here. For the folks who are here, make sure you take some Advil for that hangover headache. To catch folks up: GP 10 is due to be released in June with a new interface. Smartlists are now Navigation lists with a deeper/stronger connection to the interface. Instead of a feature, it’s now an integral part of the app. Navigation lists also use a ribbon like interface a la Office 2007 but for some unexplained reason, they don’t use the word ribbon. In fact they studiously avoid the word ribbon. What’s up with that? Palettes are back, sort of. Customizable transaction workflow is now included, I’ll have more on that later. Also, the security model has been revised from an optimistic to a pessimistic security. MS announced a new community initiative, a “MySpace for Finance Professionals” that is getting some press coverage. I see this as long overdue upgrade to their Newsgroups. The site will have RSS to make it easy to follow. I’m not sure why it took MS a year to build this, they have tools to get this done in a lot less time, but it is what it is, or rather, it what we, the GP community, make it to be. I’ll have more to say about workflow, security and the other pieces later. They each deserve their own post. Today is nitty gritty day so I hope to be able to cut through the keynotes to what will work in the real world and what won’t. Meanwhile, I’ve recorded a podcast with Davis Sooknanan of Roadtown Wholesale. They were a 2005 Pinnacle award winner. Not easy when you’re business is on an island in the Caribbean! So look for that next week. Also Mary Jo Foley and I are trying to hookup for a podcast today. To the folks who recognized me from the blog or the podcast and stopped to say hi, I have to say that I’m thrilled that you get something out of site and I hope to continue delivering GP info for a long time. --- ## Hotfix for SQL Server 2005 SP2 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/hotfix-for-sql-server-2005-sp2/ - Date: 2007-03-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article A new hotfix has been released for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2. This hotfix fixes an “…issue that caused maintenance plan cleanup tasks to remove data before the specified cleanup interval”. If you have already installed SP2, you’ll need the hotfix. If not SP2 has been updated to include the fix. The new version number for SP2 with the hotfix is 9.00.3050. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Process Server - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-process-server/ - Date: 2007-02-22 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article If you find that certain areas of processing really slow down for you in Dynamics GP, consider adding a Process Server. This is just a dedicated machine(s) that allow GP to offload the processing from the client to these machines. So if you find that AP posting takes forever because of the number of transactions, you can easily setup a process server to process just AP posting and immediately free up the workstation for other tasks. Setup is pretty easy. You simply install the GP client on the process server and then use Tools-Setup-System-Process Server to tell GP what process servers are available and processes you want to offload to the Process Server(s). You can have more than one process server and different machines specifications are fine. The process servers don’t have to be dedicated machines but it’s better if they are. There is basic load balancing and the ability to track start and stop times for processes to improve load balancing. Often companies have a few spare PC’s lying around so if nothing else, this is relatively painless to try. Certainly it is easier than upgrading your server and client machines to better handle the load. No, Process Servers aren’t a panacea and they can introduce problems of their own but it’s important to know that Process Servers are an option. For more information, the Dynamics GP Help file actually has a lot of really good information. Simply search for Process Server and start there. --- ## Dynamics GP and Daylight Savings Time - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-and-daylight-savings-time/ - Date: 2007-02-12 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article For those of you in the US, you should have heard by now that daylight savings time is being extended for 2007. It starts earlier and ends later than previous years. The goal is to save energy by having longer periods of daylight during typical daylight hours.  However laudable the goal, it’s creating a problem for lots of PCs. The formula for daylight savings time is hardcoded into Windows XP and now it has to be changed or lots of things including your appointments, scheduled systems jobs and even your timesheet software could be off by an hour. Daylight savings time will start this year on March 11 and end on November 4. Without the change, it would have been April 1 and October 28th. Microsoft is releasing a series of patches for Windows (client and server), Exchange, Dynamics CRM and other apps over the next couple of weeks to fix the problem. Information on how [Dynamics GP would be affected is scarce](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/gp/cp_dst) but it appears that if you’ve fixed Windows (and possibly Exchange) that you’re fine. GP relies on the operating system’s clock for time based operations so patching your system and the server seems like it should do the trick. Usually an hour or two wouldn’t break too much in a generic install but when you look at companies requiring high availability or for companies operating at the edge of the spectrum an hour can be important. If you have jobs running one right after the other for 20 hours over the weekend, an hour is a big deal. Make sure your IT department is on top of this and you should be fine. Just to make this whole thing a lot more fun, March 11 is also the day Convergence starts. It would be nice to hear something from Microsoft that GP doesn’t require anything beyond fixing Windows. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Installing GP 9.0 on Vista - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-installing-gp-9-0-on-vista/ - Date: 2007-01-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article With the Vista consumer launch just days away, Microsoft has some tips on installing GP 9 on Vista. This is from [Knowledge Base article 929908](https://corp.sts.microsoft.com/adfs/ls/?wa=wsignin1.0&wtrealm=urn%3ambs2.microsoft.com&wctx=rm%3d0%26id%3dpassive%26ru%3d%252fUserInfo%252fSelectProfile.aspx%253fReturnURL%253dhttps%25253a%25252f%25252fmbs2.microsoft.com%25252fKnowledgebase%25252fKBDisplay.aspx%25253fWTNTZSMNWUKNTMMYKORSXPPNNWUNVVRWQLSTUZZMNZTMKQYTVQMTUMRMTPLVRZMK&wct=2016-04-17T00%3a15%3a45Z). I haven’t played with GP on Vista so I can’t verify this. To run Microsoft Dynamics GP on a computer that is running Windows Vista, you have to: • Turn off User Account Control (UAC) in Windows Vista before you install Microsoft Dynamics GP. To turn off UAC, follow these steps: 1. Click **Start**, click **Settings**, and then click **Control Panel**. 2.Under **User Account and Family settings**, click **Add or Remove User Account**. 3.Click one of the user accounts that you want to change, and then click **Go to the main User Account page** under the user account. 4.Under **Make changes to your user account**, click **Change security settings**. 5.Under **Turn on User Account Control (UAC) to make your computer more secure**, clear the **Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer** option. 6.Click **OK**. 7.When you are prompted, restart the computer. **Note** If you do not want to turn off UAC, you can install Microsoft Dynamics GP into another folder that is not under the Program Files folder. For example, the default installation path of Microsoft Dynamics GP is as follows: C:Program FilesMicrosoft DynamicsGP Instead, install Microsoft Dynamics GP 9.0 in the following path: C:GP90 •Install Microsoft Dynamics GP by using a login that has a local administrator role on the computer. Some caveats: - FRx 6.7 requires SP 9.0 or better for Vista - Integration Manager won’t run on Vista yet - US Payroll Tax engine won’t run on Vista yet. You have to run it on a non-Vista machine - The SDK won’t run on Vista - SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 pre SP1 won’t run on Vista. But you’ve got those on a Win 2k3 computer anyway right? So it’s looks like Vista is going to be a little ways off for us GP folks. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Your login has been removed - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-your-login-has-been-removed/ - Date: 2007-01-09 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article I got burned by this today so now it’s a Weekly Dynamic, that way you’ll know how to fix this. If you login to GP, pick the company and then you get an error message that says: *Your login has been removed from the user activity file and you cannot be in the accounting system* You’ve got a client update problem. This happens when you’ve setup a client update and then the update file has been removed or deleted from it’s location. I got burned when I disconnected our install drive that had SP1 and SP2 on it. So how do you fix this? You have three options. 1) If you can figure out what update is missing, you can put the file back where it was deleted from. 2) If you can login from any workstation, go to Tools->Setup->System->Client Updates and remove or relocate the missing update. 3) If you can’t login in at all, you can use SQL Query Analyzer or SQL Server Management Studio to remove the updates from the syUpdate table in the Dynamics Database. I think I understand why this happens. All machines need to have the same updates and the update check happens before the login is complete and user interface is presented. So if system thinks the update is there and required but the file isn’t present, you get an error. But at a minimum, the error should be clearer. Realistically, there should be a check first to see if the update is installed on the client. If it is, don’t worry if the file is there or not. But hey, we know this is the 1.0 version of client update. That’s why they make versions. Special thanks to the [Dynamics GP Newsgroup](http://community.dynamics.com/f) for having solved most of this for me. I just had to find the right table. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: PDF Output - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-pdf-output/ - Date: 2007-01-04 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article When you print to the screen, Dynamics GP gives you the option of outputting the file to PDF. But there are some issues with this. First, you have to have Adobe Acrobat (not just the reader) installed on each machine where you want to print to PDF. This is a pricey requirement. Secondly, you have to have the right version of Acrobat. When Adobe releases a new version it typically breaks the GP functionality. To make things worse, Adobe tends to be bad about announcing when a new version will be released, not mention that GP and Adobe releases rarely coincide. If you don’t have the right version of Acrobat installed, your PDF option is there, but grayed out, teasing you with the functionality. I wish GP would add an internal PDF printer like, I can’t believe I’m saying this, the latest version of Quickbooks. Until that happens though, you have some options. Your best option is to get one of the free or inexpensive PDF printers available on the web. Apps like [CutePDF](http://www.cutepdf.com/) or [PDF Factory](http://fineprint.com/) come in free and pay flavors, depending on the options you need, with the pay versions costing between $40 and $50 per license, much less than Acrobat. On top of that, these little apps tend to be faster and more stable than the Adobe offering, meaning less support. You will still have that little gray out Send to PDF link though. All of these apps work through a printer driver so they look just like another printer to the system. Until GP adds its own native PDF print driver, these apps are your best bet. **Update (2/5/07) :** I missed the fact that MS included BCL’s easyPDF on the FRx install CD. It’s listed in the prerequisites section of the CD. easyPDF functions the same way that CutePDF or PDF Factory work, you still don’t get “Send To” functionality from the print preview screen in Dynamics GP but at least you don’t have to go looking for an app. (Thanks to Richard Whaley of [Accolade Publications](http://www.accoladepublications.com/) for pointing that out on the [GP Newsgroup](http://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32) .) --- ## My New Years Wish for GP - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/my-new-years-wish-for-gp/ - Date: 2007-01-02 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article I have some New Year’s wishes for the GP team. Just some things I’d love to see improved in the new year. The best part is that none of them involve an end user software upgrade! **1) Fix the KnowledgeBase search on CustomerSource** – Don’t make excuses. Don’t tell us how to search better, just fix it. Kidnap someone from the Windows Live Search team and put them to work. Buy a Google search appliance and freak out Balmer so he’ll put resources on it. I don’t care, just fix it. **2) Get more resources out from behind CustomerSource** – I know you want to show the value of the support plans and walling off data behind CustomerSource is part of that. But too much general information that a user might need to make a purchasing decision is hiding behind the CustomerSource login. Free some info. **3) Improve the Community** – The [Newsgroup](http://community.dynamics.com/f) is great but newsgroups have their limitations. There’s no subcategories, threads can be hard to follow, there’s no RSS, etc. I have to use Google to build an RSS feed for the Dynamics GP group. Something is wrong there. How about some modern forums breaking out development, the core and third party software? How about RSS to follow threads with? **4) Turn Loose Some GP Bloggers** – Look at what blogging has done for Office and for Vista. [Satya Nadella](https://login.live.com/login.srf?wa=wsignin1.0&rpsnv=12&ct=1460848544&rver=6.0.5286.0&wp=MBI&wreply=http:%2F%2Fblogs.msdn.com%2Fb%2Fsatyanadella%2F&lc=1033&id=271611) has a blog but he only seems to blog around events like Convergence. I know you’re busy Satya but so is Richard Edelman and [Marc Cuban](http://blogmaverick.com/), yet they manage to blog more than once a month. Turn loose Char Gust or Matt Gustaphson. Give us some mid level people, let us into your head so we can be out in front of things as customers. This item was on last year’s wish list. Hopefully we’ll see it in 2007. --- ## DynamicAccounting.net – A Dynamic 2006 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamicaccounting-net-a-dynamic-2006/ - Date: 2006-12-19 - Topics: Development & Integration, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: original article It’s been a good year for DynamicAccounting.net. - We’ve more than doubled our registered users in the last 4 months of the year. We now have members in 29 countries, with about a third of our members from outside the U.S. - By year end, users will have downloaded more than 2,000 of our Dynamic Sherpa videos. It’s not [Napoleon Dynamite Dance Scene](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixsZy2425eY) numbers, but this is accounting software, so I’m thrilled with 2,000 downloads in about 5 months. Who knew a video on ODBC connections for GP would be the most popular! - We’ve had visitors from more than 80 countries with Pakistan coming in second behind the U.S. for the most number of hits. Yep, Pakistan whipped the Canadians, Kuwaitis and Indians when it came to hits. So what’s up for next year? - Podcasts – We’ll finally get the podcast off the ground in early 2007 and should be podcasting from Convergence in March. The final branding is going to be GPRocks, with a direct link at GPRocks.net. - Module Reviews – We’ll be adding module reviews. We’ll provide our perspective and you’ll have a chance to add your own comments and ratings to various GP modules and 3rd party software. We’re hoping to formalize some of the “have you ever used…” requests that float around by phone, email and the newsgroup. So this will be your chance to put your opinion out there for other users. - Videos – The videos will continue but at a little slower pace. The weekly schedule we’ve been on will be tough to keep while adding the podcasts and review. Oh yeah and holding down a job! - We’ll continue to be All Dynamics GP, All The Time with live coverage of Convergence and coverage of GP 10, whenever it comes out. We’re looking forward to a great year with you. --- ## Weekly Dynamic:Replicating the ODBC Connection - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamicreplicating-the-odbc-connection/ - Date: 2006-12-13 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Lyle U from the Microsoft Dynamics GP Newsgroup had such a great tip last week that I have to include it as this week’s Weekly Dynamic. He describes how to create two .reg files that you can then put on a shared drive or send to users to allow them to create their GP ODBC connection just by running the files. With this and Client Update, it’s becoming MUCH easier to manage your Dynamics GP installs and updates. This is why you need visit the [Newsgroup!](http://community.dynamics.com/f) Here’s how: *Rather than actually creating a DSN on every workstation. you can easily create the DSN by importing registry entries. This method is much quicker, and ensures the DSN is identical on all workstations.* *1. Create the first DSN normally.* ([Video)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_1cIfMxYBc) *2. Go to Run and run “regedit” to open the registry editor. 3. Go to HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINESOFTWAREODBCodbc.ini and locate the DSN you created. Click on the DSN name to highlight it.**4. On the Registry Editor menu, click Registry > Export. Path the file to a shared folder on the server (I usually create a folder under the Install Template called “ODBC”), and name the file a name you will recognize. Be sure to leave the extension as “reg.”* **(ODBC1.REG)** *5. Still at HKEY\_LOCAL\_MACHINESOFTWAREODBCodbc.ini and click on ODBC Data Sources. 6. On the Registry Editor menu, click Registry > Export. Path the file to the same shared folder on the server used in step 4, and name the file a name you will recognize. (I usually call it “ODBC.reg.”) Be sure to leave the extension as “reg.”* **(ODBC2.REG)** *7. On each subsequent workstation install, simply double click each of the .REG files, and answer Yes to allow it to write to the registry.* --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Multiple Install Instances - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-multiple-install-instances/ - Date: 2006-12-04 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article SQL 2000 introduced multiple instances of the database. GP 9.0 has now introduced multiple instances of the program. After you’ve installed GP 9, you can actually do a second install that will be placed in a separate instance. This works well for testing since you install a complete test environment, DB and GP, on a machine that is already running Dynamics GP, without affecting the existing install. Right now for example, I have one environment with SP1 and one without. Both running on the same machine and pointed to different DB’s. Simply reinsert the Dynamics GP CD and click Install Microsoft Dynamics GP. In the course of the install, you will get  a chance to name the instance. Pick a name and the whole install will be built around that name. --- ## Oracle has more flaws than SQL Server - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/oracle-has-more-flaws-than-sql-server/ - Date: 2006-11-28 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I have no idea if this study has any value, but if Slashdot is praising a Microsoft product it must be true! True or not, it’s still fun to quote. --- ## GP Hotfix Hell - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp-hotfix-hell/ - Date: 2006-11-27 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article GP has a new hotfix for v. 9.0 that was released on 11/17/06. I’m building a new install for testing and I found this after I had added Service Pack 1. Well, guess what, SP1 is **INCLUDED** in this hotfix, meaning you get to install it again. SP 1 was not a trivial install. It takes a while. I don’t understand why the hotfix includes SP1. GP’s definition of a hot fix is: “Hotfixes release once a month and include only a few fixes for a limited number of modules.” Including all of SP1 doesn’t seem to fit that definition, especially since we’re due for SP2 based on GP’s 6 month release target. They would have been better to require SP1 for installation of the hotfix if there are critical decencies. The new hotfix is here and requires CutomerSource access. --- ## Free Training and Lots of It! - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/free-training-and-lots-of-it/ - Date: 2006-11-21 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration - Type: original article Microsoft announced yesterday that if you are on a current enhancement or support plan, you now get free access to eLearning. This includes downloadable training manuals, interactive courses and learning plans. This used to cost $299, now it’s included with your enhancement or support plan. If you’re not on an enhancement or support plan, you can still try it for free between now and December 31, 2006. The info is here. You will need the promo code even if you are on a plan. If you have an enhancement or support plan, the expiration date will be your plan’s expiration dates, not 12/31/06. Of course, if you’re not on a plan and can’t access CustomerSource, how can you read the article? That makes no sense if you want to sell more enhancement plans! Here’s the instructions: **To access E-Learning at no charge between 20 November 2006 and 31 December 2006 follow these easy steps:** Visit http://dynamics.microsoftelearning.com/eLearning/enterCode.aspx. 1. When prompted enter one of the following access codes. Note: The access cods are case sensitive. **Customer access code: 7815-Promo1c-9897** 2. Accept the Terms of Use. 3. Create a user account. You will be required to log in with a Microsoft Passport account.  If you do not have one, you will be prompted to set one up. 4. Complete the user information. 5. You now have access to all E-Learning for Microsoft Dynamics for a limited time! You will only need to redeem the access code once. On subsequent visits between 20 November 2006 and 31 December 2006, go to: http://dynamics.microsoftelearning.com, click on the Microsoft E-Learning Sign In page and log in with your Microsoft Passport account. Don’t confuse eLearning with Dynamic Sherpa videos, you’ll want both. I guarantee you’ll learn more in a 5 minute Dynamic Sherpa video than in the first 5 minutes of an eLearning one, so get out there and learn something, anything! --- ## Pre Christmas Clearance Sale - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/pre-christmas-clearance-sale/ - Date: 2006-10-31 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I just got an email with some of the current discounts for Dynamics GP.

There’s gonna be some prizes missing from the box when Vista ships. Via Mary Jo Foley, some of  the items that will not work with Vista’s initial release include: SQL Server 2005, SP1 (and 2000 and 97) MSDE Visual Studio 2005, SP1 SQL Server and to increasing extent, Visual Studio, are important to GP users. I’m sure you’re all running GP on Windows 2003 server or at least Windows 2000 server (if you run NT, please don’t tell. I don’t want to know!) so you’ll wait until the server release of Vista to upgrade anyway. But what about testing? Lots of people test GP on Windows XP. Are we all stuck? Well, to get SQL Server 2005 running on Vista you’ll need Service Pack 2. Oh yeah, it’s not out yet. It’s not officially in Alpha or Beta yet. The first preview is due “soon”. --- ## Happy Birthday! - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/happy-birthday/ - Date: 2006-09-12 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article DynamicAccounting.net is one year old today. It’s come a long way in a year. There’s a boat load of tips in the Weekly Dynamics area, a fair number of downloads and we’re now up to six videos in our Dynamic Sherpa series of 5 minute training videos. We have registered users in 18 countries on 6 of the 7 continents.  We’ve also had some bumps in the road. At one point I tried to do too much with the tips and couldn’t keep up. There’s also been a few server issues along the way but those seemed to be ironed out for now. So what’s coming in year 2? Now that the Videocasts and Weekly Dynamics are pretty consistent, a monthly podcast is next. I’m looking to interview various people involved with Dynamics GP, VARs, Customers, ISVs and Microsofties to get their take on GP and insights on how they use the software. Hopefully, I can do some podcasting interviews from Convergence in 2007. Also, we’ve expanded our partnership with DynamicsCareers.com and we should have job listings on the site in the near future. Knowledge of Dynamics GP is a skill that is in demand (I know, I just had to hire someone!) and we want to give folks a place to leverage that knowledge if they are ready for a new opportunity. The 2nd service pack for GP 9 is due in the October timeframe and version 10 is due after the first of the year, around the time Vista ships. We’ll have coverage of both of those items for you and some new downloads to help you manage GP. On the more exotic front, I’m looking at ways to pool GP information even more than we have now. Perhaps this will be a Wiki, a script repository, who knows? It’s still up in the air and a ways out. Thank you to everyone who has visited the site, downloaded a file, downloaded a video or subscribed to the blog. Your participation and the chance to maybe help is what makes me want to do this. I also have a special thank you to everyone who registered on the site. Your registrations really illustrate the growth over the last year.

This is useful for maintenance, left over logins, etc. It’s used less since GP introduced the ability for users to log themselves out, but it’s still useful. So, when you go to User Activity in GP 9.0, you’ll get a surprise, it’s not there! Yes User Activity has moved! It’s now located at Tools->Utilities->System->User Activity. ![](http://static.flickr.com/86/216822666_0741d79284.jpg?v=0) This was a big enough deal that Microsoft provided a Knowledge Base article (KB913820) explaining where to find the User Activity window now. If you’re upgrading to 9.0, this is one less thing you’ll have to go looking for. --- ## New Downloads - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/new-downloads/ - Date: 2006-08-10 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration - Type: original article I’ve added some new files to the [Downloads](/1000-downloads-of-windows-8-microsoft-dynamics-business-analyzer-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/) section of the site. New files include some Integration Manager scripts, SQL Scripts and app or two. You will need to register to get the downloads, but hey its free and we have yet to send 1 piece of email to our users. Trust is earned and DynamicAccounting.net is fast approaching it’s first year of trust. --- ## Rumors - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/rumors/ - Date: 2006-08-08 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article A couple of items emerged from the MS Dynamics Compliance webcast today. I’m going to call them rumors for now because I’m not sure that I understood correctly. So, I may be wrong but here goes. 1) **SP2 for Dynamics GP 9 is due out in October of 2006**. That timing seems about right. It is expected to include improved electronic signature capability in the Electronic Signature module. Things like email notification and approval from a different machine. I suspect the functionality will be similar to electronic timesheet or requisition approvals. (We were talking about compliance so I don’t have any idea what else is in there.) 2) **If you are running GP 9 + SQL 2005 + Windows 2003 Server you can get Active Directory authentication and single sign on**. We haven’t upgraded to SQL 2005 yet so if anyone is running in this configuration, please go to user setup, play with the additional settings and let me know. If this is true, MS should be screaming this at every installed user. That is a compelling reason to upgrade! 3) **Client Update will add CNK files**. Here’s the deal. At Convergence, the MS folks were adamant that client update wouldn’t push CNK files. My VAR was certain, client update couldn’t push CNK files. I’ve been contacted by some folks who thought it would push CNK files. Most of the documentation is vague, but I did find a document that clearly says CNK files can be pushed to clients via client update. So which is it? I did a quick test and the CNK file did NOT go down. But I’m open to being wrong. Has anyone pushed a CNK file down via GP client update? If you have, send me an email and let me know. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: Rolling Down Service Packs in 9.0 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-rolling-down-service-packs-in-9-0/ - Date: 2006-07-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article Dynamics GP 9.0 introduced a new installation process and along with that, the ability to push installations out to the clients. There are a number of shortcomings with this version but I know that most of those have been loudly expressed to the GP team. Most notably, most if not all 3rd parties can’t currently be updated via this methods. This means you still end up touching every client for third party installs and 3rd party updates or service packs. Having said that though, the push parts that work, work pretty well. Given all that, I’m going to keep this topic pretty narrow and just look at rolling down service packs and hot fixes via Client Updates. Before you start, the applicable update needs to be downloaded from CustomerSource and placed on a shared drive accessible to all the users. We’ll start with Tools-Setup-System-Client updates. - Start by giving the update a name, like Service Pack 1. - Check the box to Update Clients at Next Use. This turns a particular update on or off. You can have multiple active updates like a hot fix and a service pack. However, you’ll want to turn off an update if a new, comprehensive update is going to be used. (Turn off SP1, when SP2 is available) - Lookup and select the location where you stored the update. Again, this needs to be on a shared drive accessible to the users. Now, when a user logs on, GP will check to see if the update is installed. If not, it informs the user and gives them the option to apply the update. When they say yes, the update installs. You’ll still want to warn your users with an email, especially since some of these updates are quite large. You’ll also want to manage this a little bit. Nothing like accouting coming to a screeching halt during month end because everyone is updating GP at once. We used this to push out SP1 as part of our upgrade to 9.0 and it really worked well. Very seamless for the service pack. Of course, we still had third parties to add on but hey, nothing is perfect. Speaking of not perfect, Blogger is not letting me add a screen shot so I’ll try to add it later. --- ## Our Upgrade to 9.0 is Done - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/our-upgrade-to-9-0-is-done/ - Date: 2006-07-25 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article We’ve completed the upgrade to GP 9.0 Professional from 8.0 Standard here at work. We used our VAR to do the upgrade because I’ve got too many other things going on. All in all though, it was very smooth. Not having to upgrade FRx this time was big help as well. That’s where the the last upgrade got hung up. This will give me an opportunity to blog more on Business Portal items and to find some new 9.0 features via day to day use. I’ve again confirmed from folks that there is tighter Business Portal integration coming with 10 and that 10 will be the last big release for a while. Something like 6 month service packs and 2-3 year release cycles timed to better coincide with Office. We’ll see if that happens but we may finally get a chance to absorb a release before the next one is out. --- ## Weekly Dynamic:Support Administrator Console - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamicsupport-administrator-console/ - Date: 2006-06-30 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article In case you missed it, GP has an optional program on the CD called the Support Administrator Console. Essentially, this a SQL Query Analyzer type application done in a GP style. It doesn’t use the GP encrypted logins, only a regular SQL login. This makes it pretty safe and easy to install on your user’s desktops. The Administator Console can access non-GP SQL databases as well. I install it on all my user’s desktops. That way, if I’m helping them with an issue and I need to see the tables, I don’t have to run around the building looking for a machine with Query Analyzer on it. The console was available in versions 7.5 and beyond (I can’t recall if it was in 7.0 or not).

For those of you waiting for the first service pack to upgrade to Dynamics GP 9.0, the first service pack is here.

Excutives and Salespeople need not apply! The Upgrading to GP 9 session was very good. Down and dirty. Not exciting, but clear and concise. The Q&A afterward was great. Here’s some key things I learned: 1) The first service pack is due end of April. Partners should be looking for a wave upgrades after that. 2) Macros and Integrations may not update. Test those heavily! 3) The “push” installer will only install GP apps at this time, not 3rd parties or customizations unless 3rd parties are also using the msi installer. This is version 1 of the new install/update process. Expect this to be refined improved over time. 4) The install will automatically set the recovery model to simple as part of the install. 5) FRx 6.7 is the latest, you should be fine. 6) 7.5 won’t run on SQL 2k5 so you should update GP first then update the database if you are doing both. 7) If you are going from 8.0, there wasn’t a straight answer but it seemed to be up to you as long as you are on the SP that allows 8.0 to support SQL 2k5 --- ## SQL Server 2005 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-2005/ - Date: 2006-03-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data - Type: original article I’m in the What’s New In SQL Server 2005 session, since I was at one of the regional launch events, not much is new for me, buuut, it’s a nice refresher. I’m an accountant so I have to work to scrape up the time to play with SQL 2005 and my time has been kind of limited. But I have played with it and I like what I see. I really like the new Reporting Services features geared toward power users. Microsoft often focuses on developers to the detriment of power users and this brings power users back into the fold. --- ## GP9 Overview - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp9-overview/ - Date: 2006-03-26 - Topics: Payables & Receivables, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article Based on the GP 9 overview, these are the compelling reasons for US to upgrade from 8.0 to 9.0: - Available enhanced Audit Trails (extra cost) - Available electronic sign off (extra cost) - New Payables check batch window and streamlined payables processing (free) - Home page, connection to Outlook is nice. - Installation improvements - Mass deployment (Outlook, SMS, or Group Policy) - New set up checklist - New GP webservice for Integration (Developer Toolkit) Some other things I like but which don’t specifically apply to TransitTV are: - Extender (Extra cost) Your mileage may vary. I’ve talked to a number of people on 7.5 and an upgrade to 9.0 will give them a lot of 8.0’s benefits as well ,such as undoing JE’s. The Developer Toolkit for GP is a great idea. The ability to use VS2005 to extend GP and avoid Dexterity has the ability to be huge. Anything that opens up GP to more developers is a good thing. --- ## First Impressions - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/first-impressions/ - Date: 2006-03-25 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article OK, here are my first thoughts on Convergence. This one is big. Texas big. I go to Convergence about every other year. I didn’t make it to San Diego last year but I was in Orlando in ’04. This one is huge! Registration was a breeze, as I expect it to be at a Microsoft conference. We got a nice bag but thats about it. MS seems short on toys this year. I still use the retractable headset from ’04 because I can’t find anything more compact! Did I mention it was BIG this year? I spent a few minutes in the hands on lab, Matt G. wasn’t kidding, they have A LOT of computers. Everything is running virtual server and it takes a minute to load what you want but it works well. Passwords are both required and provided. That annoyed me at first and then it seemed like a good idea. Users need to use strong passwords so Microsoft is setting an example. The expo hall is huge. Based on the booths, this may be only trade show some of these vendors go to. So here’s my advice for next year. I want to know 2 thing from your booth. What’s your name and what do you do. Give me that in big bold letters. Don’t make me work for it. Also, don’t bunch in groups with your co-workers. I know, it’s the end of the day, you’re tired. You have several days ahead of you. Two words. FAKE IT. Call me anything you want behind a nice smile. There are a lot more vendors with similar offerings so it’s time to out “Friendly” the competition. I’m pretty whipped from the flight. I’m not sure I’m going to make the welcome reception. --- ## Policy Manual and Calculator Downloads - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/policy-manual-and-calculator-downloads/ - Date: 2006-03-21 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Reporting & BI, SQL & Data - Type: original article I’ve added two new items to the [Download](/1000-downloads-of-windows-8-microsoft-dynamics-business-analyzer-inside-microsoft-dynamics-gp-site-home-msdn-blogs/) section at DynamicAccounting.net. The first is a process and report that allows you to create and print an accounting policy manual from within DynamicsGP (Great Plains). The process uses the chart of accounts to create policies (non-financial accounts so they won’t affect statements) and a custom Great Plains report (built with Report Writer, no Crystal required) to print and distribute the manual. We found when trying to setup our policies that we really just needed the basics but maintaining a Word doc was a pain and setting up a database to manage just that was overkill. So this was the solution. The download includes full instructions and the custom report package. I also have the SQL available if you want to do this in Crystal or with a SQL query on an intranet. I’ve also added Moffsoft’s great, free calculator, FreeCalc. This is a great replacement for the Windows Calculator and includes a transaction tape. With FreeCalc, I’ve been able to get rid of the adding machine on my desk. I hope you like ’em, enjoy! --- ## DynamicsGP Table Reference is Now Available - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamicsgp-table-reference-is-now-available/ - Date: 2006-03-16 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: original article My DynamicsGP Table Reference document is now available on [www.dynamicaccounting.net](/).

It looks like another very solid upgrade similar to 8.0. The themes seem to be improved infrastructure, fixes for nagging issues and an overall Microsoftization of the product. That’s a good thing in my opinion. For example, installation is expected to be easier with 9.0. DynamicsGP 9.0 is installed using Microsoft’s .MSP installtion files, not .exe’s. This means that the installation will be more in line with other MS products and will allow for automatically updating client installations via Automatic Client Updates feature. Also, batches close on save automatically now, AP check selection is improved, true check per address functionality has been added to AP and more features are included in the core. I suspect there will be some pain with this release however. With Business Portal included you are looking at possibly an entirely new infrastructure (ASP.net 2.0, SQL Server 2005) underneath GP not to mention all the variations companies could be running. The product looks and behaves more and more like a Microsoft app and I think that this a good direction for GP. I’m looking forward to the upgrade. --- ## SQl 2005 and Dynamics GP Compatibility info - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-2005-and-dynamics-gp-compatibility-info/ - Date: 2006-01-06 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9, Great Plains (pre-GP) - Type: original article via MBS Blog Central (http://www.typepad.com/t/trackback/3974579) here is the current compatibility status for GP and SQL Server: SQl 2005 and Dynamics GP Compatibility infoDynamics GP 9.0 – Compatible out-of-the box with SQL 2005 Great Plains 8.0 – Will be compatible with SQL 2005 with an upcoming service pack (no release date is set yet) Great Plains 7.5 and all earlier release with NOT be compatible with SQL 2005 Also, with the release of Dynamics GP 9.0, SQL Server 7.0 is no longer supported.

The ASP.net 2.0 upgrade is done and after some pain, the DotNetNuke upgrade is initially done. I still have some skin changes but it’s up. SQL Server 2005 upgrade is next. The worst part is over. I love DotNetNuke but they need to work on their documentation. It’s obtuse to say the least, but I figured it out. All should be back to normal by Monday at the latest. --- ## Great Plains 9.0 – Stronger Core? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/great-plains-9-0-stronger-core/ - Date: 2005-12-16 - Topics: Payables & Receivables, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 9 - Type: original article I’ve looked through the Dynamics GP 9.0 enhancements list and I have to say that I’m impressed that so much of the new stuff is geared toward administrators. This release doesn’t appear to be a festival of new features, but a tightening up of the core. For admins there’s Mass Deployment, Automatic Client Updates, Setup Checklists, Scheduled Backups, and SQL Server 2005 Password Policies (does this mean we can use Windows authentication?) On the useability side, I saw improved batch creation, calendars for date entry, Smartlist integration with the letter writing wizard, GL Descriptions without drilling down, better check batch adjusting, true multiple remit to’s for vendors, and a number of improvements around reporting. No killer feature appeared but GP has been due for a good, solid boost to the foundation. All the admin features are necessary to compete in large deployments and bring GP close in line with Microsoft’s unified update ability. --- ## SQL Server 2005 Orlando Launch Event - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-2005-orlando-launch-event/ - Date: 2005-12-08 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: original article Sorry for the long delays between posting, as we approach year end, it’s been pretty busy at work. I’ll try to get back to weekly features and gotcha’s next week. I went to the SQL Server 2005, Visual Studio 2005, Biz Talk Server 2006 Orlando launch event today. I got my free copy of SQL Server 2005 and VS 2005 as early Christmas toys. Expect GP to be available for SQL Server 2005 late January or early February if you’re an existing client. The launch event was alright but it seemed like they skimped on the level of executives present. The sessions were pretty heavy on overview and rah rah, considering that the products have been out for a month now. All in all though, it was worth the trip. If your registered for another city, go and have fun. I’m looking forward to SQL Server 2005. Maybe I’ll go home early to play with it. --- ## FRx Service Pack 5 Now Available - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/frx-service-pack-5-now-available/ - Date: 2005-11-21 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article FRx 6.7 is up to service pack 5. You can get it here: http://mbs.microsoft.com/public/insights/ReadArticle.aspx?rcpt\_id=10754643&ja\_id=28437 --- ## Weekly Feature: Schedule Your Macros - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-feature-schedule-your-macros/ - Date: 2005-11-18 - Topics: Development & Integration, Tips & Hidden Features, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article You may have maintenance or reporting macros that you want to run when you’re not logged in. I’m working on a set of prebuild maintenance macros for registered users to be available in the near future. As promised in the Macros weekly feature, to schedule a macro to run: - Start GP, don’t log in. - At the Welcome window hit ALT-F8 to start recording. Name the macro and save it to a location where you can find it. - Log in as you normally would. (The macro will record your password. You may want a separate, maintenance only login for automatic macros) - After you are logged in, leave macro recorder running and either perform all the functions you want scheduled or run another macro that you’ve prebuilt that has all the functions you want. This second options adds increased flexibility. You can separate the scheduling macro from the macro used to perform maintenance. - When done, pick Tools->Macro->Stop Recording. - Almost Done. Open the macro (mac) file in notepad. Remove the # DEXVERSION line. (This removes version specific info from the file and makes it more version generic so you don’t get burned by a service pack) - Add the line: Logging file ‘macro.log’ to the top of macro. (This turns off macro dialog boxes) To fire this macro off you need 3 pieces. The dynamics.exe location, dynamics.set location and the macro location. The line to run your macro from a windows shortcut looks something like this: “C:Program FilesMicrosoft Business Solutions80Great PlainsDynamics.exe” “C:Program FilesMicrosoft Business Solutions80Great PlainsDynamics.set” “C:Documents and SettingsmpolinoDesktoplogin.mac” Quotes are required. Create a shortcut with these locations and use the windows scheduler to fire off the shortcut. After that your macros will run as scheduled. Any error dialogs are logged in the macro.log file. Now you can run those maintenance macros while you are at the beach! --- ## Weekly Gotcha:Get rid of that Print Dialogue - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-gotchaget-rid-of-that-print-dialogue/ - Date: 2005-11-18 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Do you hate that print dialogue box that pops up everytime you print? There is a way to get rid of it. In Named Printers, (Tools->Setup->System->Named Printers in 8.0) you can turn off print dialog box. Open named printers and check the Do Not Display System Print Dialog box. If you’ve already setup advanced printers, select the Machine ID drill down and check the box there. It’s not inuitive, but it can be done. --- ## Weekly Feature: Advanced Macro Tips - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-feature-advanced-macro-tips/ - Date: 2005-11-09 - Topics: Tips & Hidden Features, Development & Integration, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article We covered basic macro information last week. This week we’ve got some advanced features. 1) Move macros from version to version. Sometimes recorded macros won’t run after an upgrade or a service pack. Open the macro file (.mac) in notepad and remove the top line. It will look something like this: # DEXVERSION=DEX 8.00m076 2 2 and indicates the version the macro was recorded in. Since many GP updates add features, rather than changing features this usually works fine. 2) Split up macros. This was covered in last weeks [Weekly Gotcha](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2005/11/weekly-gotcha-macro-pauses.html) 3) Allow access to limited areas. This was more important in past versions but if a user needs to perform a single function behind the system password, you can create a macro that incorporates the password and allows them to perform the funtion. Other items behind the system password are normally not accessible because the password would be required again and the macro has hidden it from the user. BEWARE though, this puts the system password in an unencrypted text (.mac) file so you’ll want to limit access to the macro file and track system activity. Also, if you change the system password, you break the macro. 4) Edit a macro by hand. You can edit the macro (.mac) file with notepad. So if you have a long macro and you need to make a simple change (like a name or system password ;)) you can edit the file. I asked MBS support and developer types if there is a document outlining how the macro language works but I’ve been repeated told that nothing like that exists. 5) Step through the macro. You can use the STEP (shift-f8) option to step through your macro one command at a time if you are having problems. 6) Macrotize your reports. Report Scheduler and Report Groups are great but sometimes you need odd report settings (like yesterday). Remember that you can use macros to setup the report, let you enter the date and then finish printing. 7) Macrotize your maintenance. Checklinks and Reconcile can both be run with macros. You can review the macro help file to even see how to autoschedule a macro. I’ll probably cover it as well on a later post. --- ## It’s Launch Day! - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/its-launch-day/ - Date: 2005-11-07 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 8 - Type: original article It’s launch day at MS. SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 officially launch today. I’ll be attending the Orland launch event in early December as MS does a roadshow throughout the country to promote both products. BizTalk is in there as well but won’t actually be available until 2006. SQL Server is extremely relevant for GP users. GP 8.0 needs a service pack update to work with SQL Server 2005 but that should be out pretty soon. There are some great enhancements in SQL 2005. If MS can make the upgrade from 2000 to 2005 as seamless as so many 7.0 to 2000 upgrades were they will have hit a home run. Everything I’ve seen about SQL 2005 has been very positive. VS 2005 is also relevant for reporting and add-on. I’ve heard a LOT of great things from developers running beta versions. Right at launch time, however, there seems to be some grumbling about whether they waited too long, released too early or got it juuuust right. We’ll have to see what the consensus is in 6 months. There is always so much hype, positive from MS and negative from other camps that only time will tell how great both of these products are. Put down as pro-hype for SQL Server 2005. --- ## Closer Alignment between Dynamics Producst and Server - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/closer-alignment-between-dynamics-producst-and-server/ - Date: 2005-11-04 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article In an interview yesterday, Satya Nadella, corporate VP for MBS outlined some the stronger server/product ties for the Dynamics range of products, including DynamicsGP. --- ## Weekly Gotcha: Macro Pauses - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-gotcha-macro-pauses/ - Date: 2005-11-04 - Topics: Development & Integration, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article When building a macro, you can pause to allow for user input with the Insert Pause button. The problem is that the user has to know to go to Tools->Macro->Continue after they input their information. This extremely non-intuitive. A better option is to build multiple macros. Let each macro stop before required input and a new macro be set to start after input. Then add all the macros to the shortcut bar with a number in from of them like a series of steps (you can use folders to isolate various processes. This way a user would see something like: 1) Click here to Start bank transfer 2) Enter Amount 3) Click here to post transfer Steps 1 and 3 would be macros, step 2 would be a dummy shortcut. The user would click step 1 to populate all the bank account info. They would enter the amount as step 2 and the step 3 macros would post and finish processing. This makes changes to the process easy since you don’t have to re-record a giant macro and it funcitons as a poor man’s workflow. --- ## Weekly Gotcha: That Little Security Checkbox - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-gotcha-that-little-security-checkbox/ - Date: 2005-10-28 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Payables & Receivables - Type: original article Lots of people know this but it will still get you. You MUST check the Security checkbox in Tools-Setup-Company-Company if you want security to be active. Otherwise, all that security work you did is irrelevant. What is this good for? Well, you might turn security off for a test company to allow freer testing. Or, you might want security off while you build some initial settings. Generally, though you want this turned on! --- ## SQL Server 2005 Released to Manufacturing - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-2005-released-to-manufacturing/ - Date: 2005-10-28 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Sales, Purchasing & Inventory - Type: original article SQL Server 2005 has been released to manufacturing today. The public launch date is November 7. My understanding is that Great Plains SP4 will support SQL Server 2005. Do you want a free copy of SQL Sever 2005? Visit a launch event and get a free copy of SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005. --- ## Weekly Feature: Setup users without being SA - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-feature-setup-users-without-being-sa/ - Date: 2005-10-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article In v8.0 you can add users to Great Plains without being logged in as SA. Unlike previous versions, there is an option to create Non-SA administrators and get some separation between database and application security. From page 27 of the MBS Planning for Security in Great Plains guide: *2. Assign the specific Great Plains administrator(s) SQL login account to the SysAdmin fixed serverrole using SQL Server Enterprise Manager.* So by assigning and existing GP user to the System Admin role in Enterprise Manager they can add users without being SA. The full document can be found at [https://mbs.microsoft.com/downloads/customer/GreatPlainsSecurity.pdf](https://corp.sts.microsoft.com/adfs/ls/?wa=wsignin1.0&wtrealm=urn%3ambs.microsoft.com&wctx=https%3a%2f%2fmbs.microsoft.com%2f_layouts%2f15%2fAuthenticate.aspx%3fSource%3d%252Fdownloads%252Fcustomer%252FGreatPlainsSecurity%252Epdf) if you’re a customersource member. Is this perfect, no. It requires a SQL security and most likely, the help of your resident DBA. Also, the user would still have elevated access to the underlying SQL tables. BUT they wouldn’t have access to non-GP databases on the same server. So the control is at least restricted to within Great Plains, whereas giving SA access, gives System Administrator access to any databases on that server installation. --- ## Weekly Gotcha – AP Void Posting Date - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-gotcha-ap-void-posting-date/ - Date: 2005-10-12 - Topics: General Ledger & Financials, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article This has a been a problem for a long time. Most Great Plains users are aware of it but some folks never quite get it. When you void an AP payment there are two possible steps: 1) Void the payment (Void Historical Transaction) 2) Void the voucher/invoice (Void Open Transaction) if you don’t want to pay this again. In both cases the screens look very similar. What’s not clear, is that the VOID DATE and POSTING DATE ***can be changed by the user***. Many times I’ve seen users try to post voids to closed periods or even worse, post to prior periods that should have been closed but weren’t. Now the financial statements change. YIKES! So remember, you change the posting and void dates to whatever is appropriate, it’s just not obvious. I wish MS would fix this. It’s a simple fix. I’ve done modifier changes to highlight these fields for clients who just didn’t get it. You shouldn’t have to customize this, how about a UI fix here guys! --- ## Scripts, Downloads and Features – OH MY! - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/scripts-downloads-and-features-oh-my/ - Date: 2005-10-11 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration - Type: original article The framework of [DynamicAccounting.net](/) is starting to take shape, slowly, but things are happening. Like what? Well, the [Forums](/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-upgrade-paths-gp-windows-sql-server-dynamics-gp-support-and-services-blog-microsoft-dynamics-gp-microsoft-dynamics-community/) area now provides the last 10 posts in the MBS Great Plains newsgroups along with subscription options – RSS, email and soon to come, MSN Messenger alerts. The [Downloads](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/search/label/Downloads) section now has a few offerings including self-logout for 6.x and 7.x versions of Great Plains. Some SQL scripts have been added to the [Scripts](/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-upgrade-paths-gp-windows-sql-server-dynamics-gp-support-and-services-blog-microsoft-dynamics-gp-microsoft-dynamics-community/) section for our advanced users and the [Weekly Features](/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-upgrade-paths-gp-windows-sql-server-dynamics-gp-support-and-services-blog-microsoft-dynamics-gp-microsoft-dynamics-community/) from the blog are all being archived in one place. To get all this shamelessly self promoted content, all you have to do is go to [DynamicAccounting.net](/) and register. Registration is free, painless, and easy. Plus, we’ll never give out your name, sell your info or send you spam. So what else is coming? Probably this week, I’ll debut a Weekly Gotcha. what’s a Gotcha? A Gotcha is a feature or process in Great Plains that incredibly non-intuitive. It’s not a bug, a bug is unintentional. One can only conclude that Gotchas were created that way on purpose, but with an ugly result. Kind of like the Solomon interface. But I digress. The Gotchas are geared more toward newer users, most long time users have used up their swear word budget on these items a long time ago, but it’s still fun to reminisce. Look for more tools, features and gotchas over the next several weeks and thanks for visiting. --- ## Weekly Feature: Seeing Red - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-feature-seeing-red/ - Date: 2005-09-28 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article I’m swamped this week so I’m falling back on an oldie but a goodie. A surprising number of long time users still don’t use this so I’ll cover here. What is it? Show required fields on a form in RED. In Great Plains select Tools>Setup>User Preferences or in some versions, Setup>User Preferences, or pick the User Preferences Icon from the shortcut bar. Select Display. On the right under Required Fields, set Font Color to Red and Font Style to Bold. Click OK and you’re done. Required fields throughout the system now show as **Bold Red.** --- ## Windows Workflow Foundation - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/windows-workflow-foundation/ - Date: 2005-09-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article Microsoft Monitor has more on the upcoming Windows Workflow Foundation that will eventually find it’s way into GP. --- ## Server Move Complete - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/server-move-complete/ - Date: 2005-09-16 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: original article [***Dynamic*Accounting**.net](/) is now on it’s new server.

A client using GP 2010 had been using GP’s Sharepoint workflow. Since the new workflow is Workflow 2.0, we’ll call this Workflow 1.0. In this case, the company had lost access to their Sharepoint site and everything that touched Sharepoint from GP was broken making it impossible to process transactions. I did some poking around and found this post [](https://community.dynamics.com/gp/b/gpjanakiram/archive/2009/11/04/reset-workflows-in-dynamics-gp) with instructions on disconnecting workflow 1.0.

I would generally come down on the side of just using ‘sa’ for something like this. GP Utilities are rarely used, primary for install. GP Utilities fall under the Christmas rule. They are rarely used and they are important to people, so it needs to be done right. Spending a little extra time and energy is usually the right answer. Involving an ‘sa’ user to add a new company or run another utility shouldn’t be a big burden and adds a little safety by involving someone else. I’m sure there are extreme circumstances where you might want a non-sa user doing things like creating companies (REITs with hundreds of small entities come to mind), but that isn’t the norm --- ## Updated Security and Audit Field Manual for D365FO - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/updated-security-and-audit-field-manual-for-d365fo/ - Date: 2018-09-13 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Fraud, Audit & Controls, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://www.amazon.com/Security-Audit-Field-Manual-Operations-ebook/dp/B07GXFW7VQ/ref=as_sl_pc_as_ss_li_til?tag=polinofamilywebs&linkCode=w00&linkId=6b040139aa71551bae4dea744aff0baa&creativeASIN=B07GXFW7VQ We are thrilled to announce that we’ve updated the [Security and Audit Field Manual for Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations](https://www.amazon.com/Security-Audit-Field-Manual-Operations-ebook/dp/B07GXFW7VQ/ref=as_sl_pc_as_ss_li_til?tag=polinofamilywebs&linkCode=w00&linkId=6b040139aa71551bae4dea744aff0baa&creativeASIN=B07GXFW7VQ).

If it’s a straight upgrade, especially if a VM rollback is available, the answer may well be no. But there are a lot of factors, not the least of which is that I’ve had people find bugs while testing upgrades where functionality they relied on no longer worked as it did previously.

[Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow 2.0](http://publishing.azurecurve.co.uk/microsoft-dynamics-gp-workflow-2-0/) is a great guide to setting up and working with the new GP workflow. I had a chance to be involved with reviewing parts of the book as Ian was working on it and it’s a terrific resource for workflow in GP. The book is easy to read, easy to use, and highly recommended.

For example, the user who posted field shows DYNSA regardless of the actual windows user login used. I think this going to be a giant pain for both auditing and troubleshooting. --- ## What’s New in Dynamics GP 2013 R2: Microsoft highlights workflow, requisition, BI in new webcast | MSDynamicsWorld.com - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/whats-new-dynamics-gp-2013-r2-microsoft-highlights-workflow-requisition-bi-new-webcast-msdynamicsworld-com/ - Date: 2014-07-17 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/what%E2%80%99s-new-dynamics-gp-2013-r2-microsoft-highlights-workflow-requisition-bi-new-webcast?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld%2Fnews+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29 MSDynamicsWorld recently hosted a great webinar.

I ran into this recently with a new client. Their previous VAR had managed SQL for them and had never given them the ‘sa’ password. On top of that they had locked out other network users and refused to give the new CTO the ‘sa’ password. If you have access to the SQL Server and if you have a login that is a local administrator on the SQL box, you can work around this. I used the instructions from Tim Radney at to successfully change the ‘sa’ password and recover access to the SQL Server. It worked out well for us and for them since the SQL Server hadn’t been backed up since 2012. I didn’t leave until we had a good backup and recurring backup set in a maintenance plan. --- ## Implementing Fastpath’s Config AD: Create GP User For AD User | azurecurve - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/implementing-fastpaths-config-ad-create-gp-user-ad-user-azurecurve/ - Date: 2014-06-23 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2014/06/implementing-fastpaths-config-ad-create-gp-user-for-ad-user/ Ian Grieve has a new article up continuing [Implementing Fastpath’s Config AD: Create GP User For AD User](http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2014/06/implementing-fastpaths-config-ad-create-gp-user-for-ad-user/) --- ## Implementing Fastpath’s Config AD: Installation | azurecurve - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/implementing-fastpaths-config-ad-installation-azurecurve/ - Date: 2014-06-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2014/06/implementing-fastpaths-config-ad-installation/ Continuing his look at Config AD, Ian Grieve moves to [Implementing Fastpath’s Config AD: Installation](http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2014/06/implementing-fastpaths-config-ad-installation/) --- ## Dynamics Confessions Blogspot: Setting up Multicurrency - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-confessions-blogspot-setting-multicurrency/ - Date: 2014-06-17 - Topics: General Ledger & Financials, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2014/06/setting-up-multicurrency.html Leslie Vail offers up a great cheat sheet for[Setting up Multicurrency](http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2014/06/setting-up-multicurrency.html). --- ## Dynamics Confessions Blogspot: Another new Dex.ini switch EnableWCRibbons=FALSE - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-confessions-blogspot-another-new-dex-ini-switch-enablewcribbonsfalse/ - Date: 2014-06-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2014/06/another-new-dexini-switch.html Leslie Vail offers up [Another new Dex.ini switch EnableWCRibbons=FALSE](http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2014/06/another-new-dexini-switch.html). --- ## GP2TheMAX – Helping users get the ‘MAX’ from Dynamics GP: Dude, where’s my ‘Go To’ button? - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp2themax-helping-users-get-max-dynamics-gp-dude-wheres-go-button/ - Date: 2014-06-10 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://gp2themax.blogspot.com/2014/06/where-did-my-go-to-button-go-to.html Frank Hamelly has lost his GoTo button in SmartList builder.

Mariano tackled [Web Client Wednesday – User Interface Differences](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2013/10/web-client-wednesday-user-interface.html) and he got most of the differences I’ve found too. I figured he might string these out over a couple of weeks but Mariano went at it full force. This is a must read. The GP team can start their documentation with Mariano’s post. I have one or two other little differences but I’ll save them for a later Web Client Wednesday post. I can swear we will do this every Wednesday, but if we have web client topics, we’ll post them on Wednesday for consistency. Anyone else playing with the web client is welcome to join in with your own posts! --- ## Dynamics Profile: The education of a new GP MVP | MSDynamicsWorld.com - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-profile-education-new-gp-mvp-msdynamicsworld-com/ - Date: 2013-10-29 - Topics: Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/dynamics-profile-education-new-gp-mvp?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld%2Fnews+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29 MSDynamicsWorld looks at new GP MVP Ian Grieve in a [Dynamics Profile: The education of a new GP MVP](http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/dynamics-profile-education-new-gp-mvp?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld%2Fnews+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29) --- ## Microsoft collaborates with AICPA using Audit Data Standards with Dynamics – Dynamics Corporate Performance Management - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-collaborates-aicpa-using-audit-data-standards-dynamics-dynamics-corporate-performance-management/ - Date: 2013-10-28 - Topics: Fraud, Audit & Controls, Accounting & Career, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dynamics_financial_reporting/2013/10/18/microsoft-collaborates-with-aicpa-using-audit-data-standards-with-dynamics/ This is interesting.

Time I especially didn’t have if something went wrong. --- ## GP2themax – Helping users get the ‘max’ from Dynamics GP: Revenue/Expense Codes in Job Costing - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/gp2themax-helping-users-get-the-max-from-dynamics-gp-revenueexpense-codes-in-job-costing/ - Date: 2012-10-31 - Topics: Accounting & Career, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://gp2themax.blogspot.com/2012/10/revenueexpense-codes-in-job-costing.html Frank Hamelly covers[Revenue/Expense Codes in Job Costing](http://gp2themax.blogspot.com/2012/10/revenueexpense-codes-in-job-costing.html) --- ## VBA Customisation To Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Login Window To Display Desktop Alert If Caps Lock On | azurecurve - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/vba-customisation-to-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-login-window-to-display-desktop-alert-if-caps-lock-on-azurecurve/ - Date: 2012-10-29 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2013 - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2012/10/vba-customisation-to-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-login-window-to-display-desktop-alert-if-caps-lock-on/ Azurecurve shows off a [VBA Customisation To Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Login Window To Display Desktop Alert If Caps Lock On.](http://www.azurecurve.co.uk/2012/10/vba-customisation-to-microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-login-window-to-display-desktop-alert-if-caps-lock-on/) This is a combo of Patrick Roth and Aaron Berquist’s previous customizations updated for GP 2013. --- ## Mohammad R.

But the setting is all or nothing. You can’t control it by Item. However, you can control it with a password. On the Sales Area Page under Setup pick Sales Order Processing and Options. Find Allow the Sale of Discontinued Items and check the box to allow the sale. Next to the setting enter a password. Now when you pick a discontinued item to sell, a password box will pop up. This gives you the choice at the time of the transaction to decide whether or not to allow the sale of discontinued items.

This setting can be controlled in the Dex.ini file. The setting is: SQLNumLoginTries = *number* The default is 3, setting this to –1 allows an unlimited number of tries.

You can download the SQL Compact Edition SP2 for Windows Desktop from the following link: [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=e497988a-c93a-404c-b161-3a0b323dce24](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5783) You must install both the x86 and x64 version if you are using an x64 operating system.

This creates a wrapper on the window showing status similar to how GP  manages the built in workflows. After that the tool allows a SharePoint foundation or MOSS workflow to be built around the window or process. The product launched recently and they are working on workflow templates for common requests but it seems like you can create almost any workflow. As part of their early adopter program the application is incredibly reasonably priced so if you need workflow go look at U-LINC from Integrity Data. You can check out the website video as a starting point. --- ## Weekly Dynamic: ReQLogic Login - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/weekly-dynamic-reqlogic-login/ - Date: 2011-11-14 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://ibisinc.com/ For ReQLogic, users have to enter domain credentials at login.

I agree with Christina that this is a problem but for different reasons. I’ve personally never seen a business where the descriptions of an account in the chart were so sensitive that users couldn’t see them. In most cases, the descriptions aren’t descriptive enough not to mention so descriptive that they would cause concern. The problem I have is that the message returned is that the account doesn’t exist, when clearly, it exists, the user is just denied access. This is similar to the problem that happens when user accidently turn on advanced security. It appears that the account don’t exist instead of indicating that security is restricted.

Ultimately, a person is responsible for their career and a ton of learning opportunities are available for people willing to put in a little work. --- ## The Dynamics GP Blogster: Microsoft Dynamics GP “12” Web Client Architecture – Part 2 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/the-dynamics-gp-blogster-microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client-architecture-part-2/ - Date: 2011-05-13 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2011/05/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client_11.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheDynamicsGpBlogster+%28The+Dynamics+GP+Blogster%29&utm_content=Google+Reader Mariano moves into the middle of his look at the [Microsoft Dynamics GP “12” Web Client Architecture with Part 2](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2011/05/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client_11.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheDynamicsGpBlogster+%28The+Dynamics+GP+Blogster%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) --- ## Management Reporter – Top 10 Knowledge Base Articles – Dynamics Corporate Performance Management - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/management-reporter-top-10-knowledge-base-articles-dynamics-corporate-performance-management/ - Date: 2011-05-12 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dynamics_financial_reporting/2011/05/11/management-reporter-top-10-knowledge-base-articles/ Dynamics Corporate Performance shows us the [Top 10 Knowledge Base Articles around Management Reporter](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/dynamics_financial_reporting/2011/05/11/management-reporter-top-10-knowledge-base-articles/). --- ## Dynamics Confessor Blogspot: Mekorma MICR error message (GP10) - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-confessor-blogspot-mekorma-micr-error-message-gp10/ - Date: 2011-05-11 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2011/05/mekorma-micr-error-message-gp10.html Leslie Vail solves a [Mekorma MICR error message for GP10](http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2011/05/mekorma-micr-error-message-gp10.html) --- ## The Dynamics GP Blogster: Microsoft Dynamics GP “12” Web Client Architecture Series - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/the-dynamics-gp-blogster-microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client-architecture-series/ - Date: 2011-05-10 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Microsoft & the GP Ecosystem - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2011/05/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheDynamicsGpBlogster+%28The+Dynamics+GP+Blogster%29&utm_content=Google+Reader Mariano has a new series looking at the upcoming [Microsoft Dynamics GP “12” Web Client Architecture](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2011/05/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheDynamicsGpBlogster+%28The+Dynamics+GP+Blogster%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) The [overview](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2011/05/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheDynamicsGpBlogster+%28The+Dynamics+GP+Blogster%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) and [Part 1](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2011/05/microsoft-dynamics-gp-12-web-client_09.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheDynamicsGpBlogster+%28The+Dynamics+GP+Blogster%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) are up now. --- ## Microsoft Dynamics GP System Administrator: Should You Separate Accounting Controls and Duties? | MSDynamicsWorld.com - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/microsoft-dynamics-gp-system-administrator-should-you-separate-accounting-controls-and-duties-msdynamicsworld-com/ - Date: 2011-05-05 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/microsoft-dynamics-gp-system-administrator-should-you-separate-accounting-controls-and-duties?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld%2Fnews+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29&utm_content=Google+Reader Over at MSDynamicsWorld, Gloria asks [Microsoft Dynamics GP System Administrator: Should You Separate Accounting Controls and Duties?](http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/microsoft-dynamics-gp-system-administrator-should-you-separate-accounting-controls-and-duties?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+msdynamicsworld%2Fnews+%28Microsoft+Dynamics+News%29&utm_content=Google+Reader) In addition to Gloria’s look at how and when to use the SA account I would add a shout out to Fast Path’s Config AD which allows security assignment to be separated from security setup. This allows consolidated security assignment from centralized security group. Config AD also allows single sign on based on Active Directory. This reduce risk since users have fewer passwords to remember, making them less likely to write them down. It also reduces password related support calls. --- ## Troubleshooting Upgrade to Dynamics GP 2010 R2, Part 2 | Aaron Berquist – High Dynamic Range - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/troubleshooting-upgrade-to-dynamics-gp-2010-r2-part-2-aaron-berquist-high-dynamic-range/ - Date: 2011-05-04 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 2010 - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.aaronberquist.com/2011/05/troubleshooting-upgrade-to-dynamics-gp-2010-r2-part-2/ Aaron follows up with a part 2 to his post on [Troubleshooting Upgrade to Dynamics GP 2010 R2](http://www.aaronberquist.com/2011/05/troubleshooting-upgrade-to-dynamics-gp-2010-r2-part-2/).

Word come from Michael Smith via the GP Newsgroup that the file lcmsg.gif found by default in C:Program FilesMicrosoft DynamicsGPBackgroundImages has a conflict with DirectX and that renaming the file to something else can solve this issue.

But what happens if you make a mistake and misspell something, like an employees name? Are you stuck with that misspelling forever? No way! This is actually really easy to fix. Start typing the misspelled word and when it appears as an auto complete choice, highlight it with the mouse and right click on the misspelling. A box will pop up showing “Remove from list”. Click on that and the entry will go away. That’s all that there is to it.

If you are working with Dynamics GP running on SQL Server, locks are normal. Records get locks as users update them to prevent conflicts. Deadlocks are something else entirely. Deadlocking occurs when two user processes have locks on separate objects and each process is trying to acquire a lock on the object that the other process has. Deadlocking is bad and has a detrimental affect on performance. They can can also be a pain to track down.

This window is typically accessed via the expansion arrow on the account number. It is NOT the window used to create or change an account in the chart of accounts. That is the Account Maintenance window. I can sure see how that could be confusing! So it’s safe to give this window to most users.

It’s now located at [Dynamics GP] Tools->Utilities->System->User Activity. ![](http://static.flickr.com/86/216822666_0741d79284.jpg?v=0) This was a big enough deal that Microsoft provided a Knowledge Base article (KB913820) explaining where to find the User Activity window now. If you’re upgrading from a pre 9.0, this is one less thing you’ll have to go looking for.

Essentially, this a SQL Query Analyzer type application done in a GP style. It doesn’t use the GP encrypted logins, only a regular SQL login. This makes it pretty safe and easy to install on your user’s desktops. The Administator Console can access non-GP SQL databases as well. I install it on all my user’s desktops. That way, if I’m helping them with an issue and I need to see the tables, I don’t have to run around the building looking for a machine with Query Analyzer on it. The console was available in versions 7.5 and beyond (I can’t recall if it was in 7.0 or not).

Most of the complaints center around features from 9.0 that didn’t make it in to v10’s rebuilt security model.

But what happens if you make a mistake and misspell something, like an employees name? Are you stuck with that misspelling forever? No way! This is actually really easy to fix. Start typing the misspelled word and when it appears as an auto complete choice, highlight it with the mouse and right click on the misspelling. A box will pop up showing “Remove from list”. Click on that and the entry will go away. That’s all that there is to it. This was actually covered as part of the [Weekly Dynamic on the Auto Complete function](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2006/08/weekly-dynamic-auto-complete.html) but a number of people weren’t aware that you could do this so I decided to split it out and give it it’s own Weekly Dynamic. --- ## SQL Server Virtualization - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-virtualization/ - Date: 2008-11-14 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/kimberly/virtualization-with-sql-server/ [Kim Tripp has a great post](http://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/kimberly/virtualization-with-sql-server/) with resource links related to SQL Server hardware virtualization.

Dealing with users who have been denied access because several users are logged in to multiple companies is a real pain. Dave provides a nice way to deal with it. If you’re not registered for modifier and therefore can’t use VBA, you can of course buy modifier. Alternatively, you can use SQL to provide a list of people logged in more than once. When combined with a well communcated policy and a daily list that goes to say, the CFO, this also does a good job of preventing multiple logins. It’s just not as elegant as David’s solution. --- ## Technet Radio -Performance Improvements SQL 2008 Analysis Services - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/technet-radio-performance-improvements-sql-2008-analysis-services/ - Date: 2008-08-26 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, SQL & Data - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/video/ [Technet Radio has a very approachable podcast](https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/video/) in their August 19th show that describes the performance improvements available in SQL Server 2008 Analysis Services.

The typical advice has been to logout and log back into TS and Copy/Paste is typically restored. [On the Dynamics GP Newsgroup, Alicia W.](http://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/microsoft.public.greatplains/MLdyRQTavsw) has come up with a better option. Kill the RDPCLIP process and restart it. This reliably fixes the Copy/Paste issue. To make things easier for her users, she put the process in a batch file that looks like this: tskill rdpclip start “” rdpclip That’s it. 2 lines in a batch file and problem solved. Thanks for digging that out Alicia and making it available to the rest of us! I’ve also heard that this has been acknowledged as a issue and should be fixed in SP3. --- ## Dynamics GP Named Printers on a Terminal Server - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-named-printers-on-a-terminal-server/ - Date: 2008-08-15 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2008/08/15/using-named-printers-with-terminal-server/ Make sure that you take a look at [Dave Musgrave’s latest post](https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/developingfordynamicsgp/2008/08/15/using-named-printers-with-terminal-server/) where he explains the ins and outs of using Named Printers on a terminal server.

Existing customers can purchase the product through January 1, 2010. Also, existing ER customers (similar to existing Proclarity customers) who are current on their enhancement plans can migrate to Performance Point at no additional cost. This is a little disconnect here. Performance Point is a nice 1.0 product but we know from [FRxBuzz](http://www.frxbuzz.com/) that there are lots of holes in it (the lack of [XBRL](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2008/07/xbrl-train-is-rolling.html) being a big one). Performance Point 2.0 has been delayed to correspond with the Office release schedule. I hope MS doesn’t screw up the release timing on this one and I hope that Perf Point 2.0 fulfills everyone’s expectations. Otherwise this has the potential to get messy. --- ## Dynamics GP Single Sign On Demo - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-single-sign-on-demo/ - Date: 2008-07-28 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.gofastpath.com/ [FastPath’s Configurator AD](http://www.gofastpath.com/) product brings Active Directory Single Sign On to Dynamics GP.

Just to recap, previously, if you turned on the password controls in GP that allowed password expiration, those expirations were controlled by Active Directory settings. The problem was that GP was actually sending the authentication 4 times. So if you wanted folks to have 5 tries to login, AD needed to be set to 20 tries. Obviously this was unacceptable for lot of network administrators. Andy Snook of [Fastpath](http://www.gofastpath.com/) brought the specifics of this issue up on MSDynamicsWorld and he was kind enough to pass along info that SP2 fixes this. It’s not yet documented that the fix is in there, but the documentation is coming. --- ## Dynamics GP Performance Point Connector First Look - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-performance-point-connector-first-look/ - Date: 2008-07-17 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://alanwhitehouse.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/dynamics-gp-to-performancepoint-planning-integration-wizard-review/ [Alan Whitehouse](https://alanwhitehouse.wordpress.com/2008/07/16/dynamics-gp-to-performancepoint-planning-integration-wizard-review/) has a great first look at the new Performance Point connector released as part of Feature Pack 1 for Dynamics GP 10.

The bottom line is that SSRS 2008 was able to respond to 3-4 times the total number of users and their requests on the same hardware. So if you’re facing performance issues with SSRS 2005 reporting with GP, help, in the form of SQL Server 2008, is on the way. --- ## SQL Server Consolidation - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/sql-server-consolidation/ - Date: 2008-07-11 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/andrew/2008/07/11/sql-server-consolidation-options/ [Andrew Fryer’s Blog](https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/andrew/2008/07/11/sql-server-consolidation-options/) has a brief discussion of the options for [SQL Server consolidation](https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/andrew/2008/07/11/sql-server-consolidation-options/) including multiple instances, consolidating databases to a single server and virtualization.

It’s so torturously slow that that the CIA is considering it for use at Guantanamo. Well, today [Jivtesh points us to a Microsoft Knowledge Base article](http://www.jivtesh.com/2008/07/correct-journal-entry-window.html) that can help fix that. KB 925326 provides a small SQL script that adds a non-clustered index to the GL20000 and GL30000 tables. That should help speed things up a bit. Of course, if you simply never made any mistakes, it would never be a problem. --- ## Smartlist Builder Bug - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/smartlist-builder-bug/ - Date: 2008-07-10 - Topics: Reporting & BI, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2008/07/bug-smartlists-builder-not-formatting.html Mariano seems to have found a bug when using more than one restriction in smartlist builder.

Most of you know that I’m a fan of [FastPath’s](http://www.gofastpath.com/) security tools and though the article is an overview, I learned a few things. For example, I didn’t know that at login, GP sends the password through security 4 times. This is what plays havoc with the SQL server lockout policy. Make sure you check out the whole article. I’ve also heard good things about FastPath’s Configurator AD active directory connector for GP. We’re looking at it for one of our clients and our tech guys have good things to say. --- ## VBScript “Type Mismatch” Error with IM 10 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/vbscript-type-mismatch-error-with-im-10/ - Date: 2008-06-26 - Topics: Development & Integration, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2008/06/vbscript-type-mismatch-error-with.html If you use Integration Manager, make sure you check out [Mariano Gomez’s post](http://dynamicsgpblogster.blogspot.com/2008/06/vbscript-type-mismatch-error-with.html) on Type Mismatch errors appearing in VBScript when upgrading to Integration Manager 10.

Also Mariano Gomez has a [nice piece on using the OLE container attachments for CPA and bank audits.](http://msdynamicsworld.com/story/data-management/use-microsoft-dynamics-gp-take-pain-and-expense-out-cpa-and-bank-audits) My own experience with the OLE container attachments is that its a nice feature that is 90% implemented but that missing 10% is painful. It’s a lot of clicks to get an item in the container and since it’s outside of dexterity you can’t script it with a macro and you can’t integrate to it. But I like the idea and the functionality works fine. Take a look at Mariano’s article and see if this often overlooked feature is useful for you. --- ## Dex.ini Settings - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dex-ini-settings/ - Date: 2008-06-09 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin, Development & Integration, Tips & Hidden Features - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2007/09/weekly-dynamic-dexini-settings.html A big thanks to Leslie Vail who has provided the GP community with a pretty comprehensive listing of the settings in Dynamics GP’s dex.ini file.

Last I saw it was on track for June 18 as part of Feature Pack 1. Of course, now I’m totally confused. SP2 was supposed to be part of Feature Pack 1 but when I looked at the release schedule, Feature Pack 1 looked more like a suite than a pack (different parts were being released at different times). [So I get one wish,](http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2008/05/gp-10-feature-pack.html) SP2 is disconnected from all the goodies in the feature pack. Yay!. I don’t like mixing features and fixes.

When you maximize certain windows in GP, hidden fields become not only visable, but the user can interact with them. This are definitely reproduceable in 10.0 but I haven’t tried with SP1 installed yet. For example, go to Cards-Purchasing-Vendor. Pick a vendor. Maximize the window. At the bottom you’ll see a bunch of hidden fields. If you go to Cards-Fixed Assets-General, pick an asset and maximize the window you get not only hidden fields but hidden buttons that work, including a delete button. oops! That might keep a few people up a night. I tested this on a vanilla install, no 3rd party code, using the Fabrikam test DB. No sign of any KB’s on this on Partnersource or Customersource. Update: This is fixed in SP1. --- ## Disable Home Page in Dynamics GP 10 - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/disable-home-page-in-dynamics-gp-10/ - Date: 2008-01-30 - Topics: SQL & Data, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Dynamics GP versions mentioned: GP 10 - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/microsoft.public.greatplains/zEQ20mqEjgo/zNOBtMf3rNoJ I take no credit for this post, it actually came out of the Dynamics GP Newsgroup.

The Home Page in Dynamics GP 10 provides some great information at a glance but it can be a resource hog in some environments. So how do you disable it? 1) Via the Dynamics GP interface: – Click Customize this page. – Uncheck everything. This doesn’t technically turn it off but since the page isn’t pulling any data it shouldn’t be a resource hog. 2) Turn it off for one user via SQL: – In Query Analyzer or Management Studio execute UPDATE DYNAMICS..SY08000 set DISPHP = 0 where USERID = ‘XXX’ change XXX to the appropriate user id. 3) Turn it off for all users via SQL: – In Query Analyzer or Management Studio execute UPDATE DYNAMICS..SY08000 set DISPHP = 0 --- ## My New Column on MSDynamicsWorld.com - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/my-new-column-on-msdynamicsworld-com/ - Date: 2008-01-30 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://msdynamicsworld.com/ I’m thrilled to be doing some writing for [MSDynamicsWorld.com](http://msdynamicsworld.com/) My first column is up at .

Do you migrate or start from scratch? Just about everything you want to know is illustrated for you. My take is that when possible, you start from scratch. When that’s not possible, you migrate with a specific timeline to move security from the migrated model to the new security model. The problem is that too often we only manage around pain so once the upgrade is done, we don’t feel the pain of a bad security setup. Until of course the auditor’s induce pain next year, or someone uses extended access to do something bad. This is one of those things where you’ll be better off tackling it and getting it fixed for the long haul, whether that means starting from scratch or including security adjustments as a post live option in your upgrade plan. --- ## Dynamics GP Service Pack Resource - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/dynamics-gp-service-pack-resource/ - Date: 2008-01-08 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32 After seeing a bunch of people complaining on the [newsgroup](http://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32) about finding and getting GP service packs, I was going to re-post the service pack locations.

When using Advanced Security, sometimes you want to see what window you are adjusting rights to. Well, it’s pretty easy but first you need to turn the feature on. 1. Open Advanced Security (Tools->Setup->System->Advanced Security). 2. Click Options. 3. Check the “Double-Click to Open Window, or Report Now when you double click on a window or report the item will open so you can see what you’re setting security for. For example, drill down on By Menu, Transactions, Financial, General (Transaction Entry). Double Click on General (Transaction Entry) and the Transaction Entry window will open. This feature was available in 8.0 and is present in 9.0 (I don’t know which version it was added in so try yours. Maybe someone can enlighten me.) --- ## Office 2003 SP2 Now Available - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/office-2003-sp2-now-available/ - Date: 2005-09-28 - Topics: Excel & Office, Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23424 MS Office 2003 Service Pack 2 is now available. [You can get it here](http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23424). Why should you care? If you are an Office 2003 user with GP, there is a host of Excel and Sharepoint fixes which may make your life easier. Not to mention new anti-phishing features in Outlook. You can also get it at MS Office Update. No word on the GP side if there any issues with Office SP2. I’ll be installing it today and I’ll let you know if I see any. --- ## Great Plains to include Workflow - URL: https://dynamicaccounting.net/great-plains-to-include-workflow/ - Date: 2005-09-15 - Topics: Install, Upgrade & Admin - Type: link to an external article - Source: https://login.live.com/login.srf?wa=wsignin1.0&rpsnv=12&ct=1460848544&rver=6.0.5286.0&wp=MBI&wreply=http:%2F%2Fblogs.msdn.com%2Fb%2Fsatyanadella%2F&lc=1033&id=271611 The upcoming versions of GP will include workflow.
