Great Plains Partner Newsflash: the implementation and support of recession

If you have Microsoft Dynamics GP implementations in your company, or if you are anxious to buy Dynamics GP user licenses and modules, install and implement, at the time of recession, as is currently 2008 and 2009, we recommend you review the following selection of ERP, sales cycle, data conversion and user recommendations for training, our experience in implementing Great Plains since 2004 shows that it can save money and ensure successful implementation and go into production:

systems 1 Scope compared with the standard functionality ERP and MRP idea is simple – if regular business with most business processes to the standard .. and only some of the unique processes, which is likely to have a PRS custom logic to be scheduled for you, consider the idea of purchasing the ERP system, you do not get what we call the logic of the rich, but instead of buying ERP standard logic simply does not work and you do not have to pay in advance, and then once a year for most of the “rich” logic, is not intended as a practical example of using -. if you are very controversial because MRP rich functionality such as Oracle E-Business Suite, try to download and considered “normal” logic of ERP, such as Great Plains Dynamics GP

three search options are much better support of Great Plains resellers, ISVs and consultants customization market that could serve. Choose the one that does not try to strong sales in these difficult years, and customers who prefer a low profile, which has not seen maintenance and repair of data

. 3. Dynamics GP customization. If you see employees more as accounting or HR manual handling is something that is not automatic in the standard Great Plains business logic, consider re-examine this issue with your Great Plains VAR to see if single or modification could reasonably cover GP gap. Microsoft Dynamics GP Dexterity is usually the way of encoding GP or add your own customizations

Great Plains Accounting Windows7 : compatibility, installation, support

If you still have the old Great Plains Accounting for DOS or Windows (archaic Windows application, based on the engine of Windows event model ancient and primitive GUI), which tried to implement Windows 7 and the results are presented in this publication. If you do not know, you can redeploy environment PAM DOS / Windows client / server, where server is PAM and the PAM client Windows 2003/2008 Server in Windows XP, Windows Vista. These facts have been described in previous publications on the subject. Today we publish new information relevant to the operating system Microsoft Windows 7:

1. ACP could be implemented in Windows 7 32-bit version. Note that the GPA and Btrieve / 2 Pervasive SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4, 3, are not compatible with 64-bit operating systems. As we write these lines in September 2010, if you just go to the computer store and try to buy the PC standard (either AMD or Intel platform) – may have weighed the chances are that the store all teams in the 64-bit (64 Windows 7 Home or Professional, Windows Vista Home or Professional). At that time, one of the best options for 32-bit Windows 7 installed – buy a small PC (netbook not as they may conflict Windows 7) with an Intel Atom, if you can not find the hardware system Windows7 32-bit preinstalled. Then, just download and install Windows 7 32-bit MSDN Subscription

2. Installation. In our case we used 32-bit Windows 7, the small load PC (Intel Atom Zotac, loaded Windows7 Business 32-bit), which is currently available through TigerDirect and sold without an operating system. We have PAM installed Windows from the CD to install version 9.5, after all the defaults. If you need your GPA only for claims transactions, you can install a database user with the GPA only your computer directly to Windows 7 (usually in C: folder GPDATA GPS, if you have several companies in the Act you have to copy the database to register the company GPA, usually are the abbreviations of the names of companies). When you want the GPA to the company by default in Windows, please locate the file in the Windows folder GPAWIN.INI (usually drive C:), look GPDATA DefaultCompany = string and change the default file as Company necessary

3. Great Plains Accounting support. PAM can be updated through the current version of Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010. Update is not free, you’ll pay for the software (usually with a good reduction, as the owner of DPM’s license you have the privilege of coupons for Dynamics GP with the same set of modules), the more you pay by office hours to migrate PAM Dynamics GP (migration tool is available from Microsoft Business Solutions). However, we know many stories of clients of PAM, which simply stick to the accounts of the Great Plains, due to lack of budget (reduction of personnel is often the case). We are more than happy to support the GPA for DOS, Windows and to some extent, on the Macintosh. The way in which support AGP, see next paragraph

4. Knowledge Base PAM support in Excel. Microsoft Business Solutions does not directly support GPA (probably due to the high overhead of training consultants and supported only a few calls, compared to 11.0 Dynamics GP. 10.0 or 9.0 to 8 full-time hours a day coach the typical workload). Therefore the direct support given to the dynamics of PAM GP VARs that have to do with former officials of the Great Plains accounting consultants (obviously these people support the new versions of Dynamics GP as well, but I still remember his training AMP and certification exams)

5. Typical case of WFP support. The majority of calls we face are damaged data recovery and repair of the GPA. Second in popularity is the travel demand Novell SPM / Windows NT4 Server to something more modern (Windows 2003, Windows Small Business Server 2008). The third candidate is when you move away from the AMP to another application Small Business ERP, something like SAP Business One, QuickBooks, Peachtree, MYOB, ACCPAC and need to export data (customers, suppliers, employees, sales and trading purchase, the chart of accounts, transactions GL)

6. Far from the amplifier when the business grows. Our recommendation is to consider switching to Microsoft Dynamics GP, home to the migration and upgrade path. In our view, this migration to high-end business ERP applications like Oracle Financials, PeopleSoft, SAP R / 3 is not likely that your software licenses and consulting budgets optimal hours

7. Great Plains Accounting e-commerce and programming. Do not recommend betting on the law, when passing through e-commerce website with shopping cart, and in our opinion Btrieve database PAM can be very hostile to programmers with modern electronic commerce (which you can connect to Btrieve tables through an ODBC connection PAM, PAM Btrieve see manual for details.) Instead, you should upgrade to Dynamics GP, then rotate the integration of e-commerce web

Great Plains eEnterprise upgrade, migration, support

Before the day of Great Plains Software was bought by Microsoft (the form of Microsoft Business Solutions Great Plains, later renamed simply for Microsoft Business Solutions and later the subdivision of Microsoft Dynamics) eEnterprise was high-level or version of Great Plains Dynamics luxury, which was applicable to versions 6.0, 7.0, earlier versions were known as Dynamics C / S +. He later became Great Plains eEnterprise professionals (while the low profile version of Pervasive SQL 2000 and Ctree, and later in MSDE 2000 was known as Great Plains Select version 7.5)

2. Migration. In this sense, are supposed to be at the foot of the Great Plains eEnterprise ERP application to another (or possibly in the form of Oracle eBusiness Suite high-end, PeopleSoft, or in the way of reducing the size of fish QuickBooks ACCPAC). eEnterprise available on MS SQL server platform and is reasonably simple routine to export the logs, work and historical transactions from MS SQL to something like the tab-delimited text files or comma or even set up an ODBC connection to convert data of the database

Great Plains Reports? Creating and typical design tools

Microsoft Dynamics GP reporting is an essential part of GP implementation and post production ERP support. Regarding the implementation of MRP typical mid-size, you must wait several information tools, especially if you think about reports genre: financial information, business processes specific reports, etc. Also, when Microsoft incorporates MS SQL Server Reporting Services or SRS and type recommended by the first tool of choice – Crystal Reports, you must do your homework in selecting the reporting tool that should be proposed and jobs. In this article we would like to review the main reporting tool for Microsoft Great Plains and give guidance

1. Great Plains ReportWriter or RW. This tool is integrated into the environment GP skill, which means that the work of the GP user interface and in the field of security of the Great Plains. RW is the tool to look first when you are customizing something which you call from GP interface: the form of sales order processing of the invoice, for example. Do not expect too much from Report Writer, as it has many limitations: you can work from existing GP screens for sets of parameters predefined by existing GP standard logic. To create custom reports in RW and the call from GP interface with a selection of custom settings, you must create GP Dexterity customization and call your report from there

2. Crystal Reports and SRS. These two report design tools compete on the market and, in some similar characteristics. When the base of the logic of relations GP SQL stored procedures, print the final report could be done with the same success of the Czech Republic and the SAR, so it is probably the tool of the question that is most comfortable for you their skills and experience. The advantage of SRS and CR is the following – you can actually create cons-modules and report every night. You should also consider comparing stored procedure in SQL views, stored procedure allows you to send the settings and create temporary tables in the code SQL script – that’s what can not be done in SQL views. However, if you’re looking at the creation of pure financial statements: income statement, balance sheet and cash flow – you need to keep reading

3. FRx. FRX advantage of Crystal Reports Designer and SRS is the connection to General Ledger interface Medicine. With FRx, you can also cross company boundaries and create a consolidated report. FRx allows you to create one’s own declaration of trees, where you can create a report with specific segments of the GP in multiple businesses. In addition, FRx give the link to the Excel spreadsheet, when you have something like small industry data accounting you want with the declaration of the consolidated />
4. Microsoft Excel reporting options. Imagine that you recognize the fact that most people trust their accounting department of Microsoft Excel and not follow company procedures to use complex tools such as MS Outlook or Microsoft CRM. In GP, you can export data to Excel in the bulleted list or a more advanced tool – Smart List Builder, where you can create custom views based on SQL statements that br

5. SQL Select statement. If your return and exploration and discovery of the data changes every day, and the creation of Crystal Reports can not be permanent, and if you have decent programmer and staff developer in SQL, you should consider ad-hoc SQL script command to export to Excel to generate the required reports. You should be aware that if their managers need to build data warehouses daily, then you must deploy SQL Server Analytical Services with Excel pivot tables or Cognos

6. Microsoft Access Reports option. If your IT people experience covers MS Access, consider using the ODBC connection to the database and use of access to GP reports

7. MS Visual Studio.Net custom programming reports. If you have a strong C # and Visual Basic developers should consider training in eConnect and then be able to create reports from Web applications. In case if you want to extend eConnect logic with direct access to the tables in the Grand Prix, please review GP tables structure – Tables of Microsoft Dynamics GP-> Tools-> Resource Description->

8. Archaic DB platforms. If you are still in GP 7.5 and earlier versions, you can use Pervasive SQL Server 2000 or Ctree FairCom /. If this is your case, you should use the following tools: MS Access, Crystal Reports (which are limited to ODBC driver limitations to cross GP modules restrictions), or GP Dexterity customization. Also, if you are in the previous version, you should consider upgrading if your business is in active mode – the current version of GP 10.0 and must use the Migration tool MS SQL Server GP version

9. Cross-platform reporting. In this case, we recommend that the first revision of MS SQL Server linked server concept can also consider other similar tools from Oracle EDI.

10. Generic ERP reports. If you are in PeopleSoft, Oracle E-Business Suite, Peachtree, MYOB. Second, the reporting tool requires the task
