GP Power Tools has the ability to capture SQL Profile Traces as one of the five different types of logs it can generate from Microsoft Dynamics GP.
To achieve this, GP Power Tools needs to change some permissions on the SQL Server so that it can both generate the Trace programmatically and also copy the resulting files to the shared Logging Folder.
We are currently seeing an increase in customer sites reporting the Registration Expired or Failed dialog when launching Microsoft Dynamics GP.
This dialog is to notify users that a Winthrop Development Consultants product is no longer registered and action needs to be taken by the system administrator to fix the subscription and restore the product’s functionality.
There have been a number of articles on the future of Microsoft Dynamics GP with the change to the Modern Lifecycle in 2021 and the announcement about ceasing new customer site sales in April 2023.
[Edit] GPUG All-Star, SQL Guru and good friend Kerry Hataley has consolidated all the information from Microsoft into a single article and also produced a Dynamics GP Consolidated Timeline based on the official Microsoft Roadmap, product lifecycle information and the April 2023 announcement.
This is a further update to the previous version of the change tracking project for Item Cards:
Based on the version 2 project, this update adds optional emailing of the changes made to a specified address.
This is another update to the previous versions of the change tracking projects for Customer and Vendor cards:
Based on the version 3 projects, this update adds optional emailing of the changes made to a specified address.
At Community Summit 2023 in Charlotte, NC, USA we had a session on the future of Dynamics GP immediately after the GP General Session. The Dynamics GP Future’s So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades session interviewed customers, partners and ISVs to discuss their commitment to the Microsoft Dynamics GP platform.
During the session there was a quick live poll, as well as the link for a more detailed survey was shared.
When GP Power Tools Build 28 was released, it added a new Product Version Validation feature. One function of Product Version Validation is to warn when it detects Dexterity Product Dictionary version mismatches.
A dialog will be displayed after logging into Microsoft Dynamics GP explaining which product dictionary versions are mismatched for the current workstation. Once dismissed the application will continue as normal. However, mismatched product dictionaries are a security and data damage risk, and the issue should be resolved as soon as possible.
In the forums recently, I have noticed an increase in threads reporting issues with sending emails using MFA (Multi Factor Authentication) from Microsoft Dynamics GP.
It is possible that you are facing a permissions issue with the App Registration in Azure AD which needs to be resolved before emailing will work smoothly again.
During the Dexterity Fundaments Bootcamp training, which was run in the week prior to the Community Summit 2023 conference, one of the attendees came up with an issue using the Multicurrency Access Setup window in Microsoft Dynamics GP.
Their problem is that the list of companies shown on the right-hand scrolling windows are unsorted and the customer has over 300 companies. This makes using this window extremely frustrating and slow. They already owned GP Power Tools and wanted to use it for a fix.
After the successful Great Plains User Conference (GPUC) event held in Fargo, ND, USA and online recently by Implementation Specialists, they are also hosting webinars for the sponsors of the event.
Winthrop Development Consultants has their session coming up tomorrow. See why GP Power Tools is the favorite addon product for all GP Customers globally. It’s free, so register now.
