#MSDynGP Dynamics GP’s Future So Bright Survey Results

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.
#GPPT Remotely requesting immediate Automatic Logout

GP Power Tools has very powerful and flexible Automatic Logout functionality to gracefully log idle users out of Microsoft Dynamics GP. However, this feature requires the user to be idle for a specified period before it will attempt to logout.
As an Administrator there are times where you would like users to exit Microsoft Dynamics GP immediately and don’t want to wait for Automatic Logout to activate. The sample project in this article makes this possible.
#GPPT GP Power Tools has detected mismatched product dictionaries

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.
Uninstalling Winthrop Products and Removing previous versions from Programs and Features

This article covers how to uninstall Winthrop Products and also how to remove previous versions showing in Programs and Features in the Control Panel.
Winthrop Products use a two-step uninstall process and will not uninstall from the Programs and Features applet in the Control Panel until they have first been uninstalled from the Microsoft Dynamics GP application. This allows the products to clean up all the settings, tables and other SQL objects from the SQL Server as well as removing themselves from the application installation before the files are removed by uninstalling from the control panel.
#GPPT Controlling System Dialogs using Modal Dialog Focus Triggers

Previously, we have discussed controlling the Report Destination Dialogs and even External Dialogs using GP Power Tools but have not published any examples of controlling the standard System Dialogs shown when the warning, error, ask() or debug commands are used in Dexterity.
This example shows how GP Power Tools adds this functionality not normally available for use with Dexterity. Visual Basic for Applications and Visual Studio Tools both have the ability to trigger before and after Modal Dialogs, but Dexterity does not. GP Power Tools adds the functionality with its Modal Dialog Focus Triggers.
Merry Christmas 2023 and Happy New Year 2024

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone.
I hope you have all had a wonderful Holiday season so far and have taken some time off from work and are spending it with your family and friends.
As 2023 draws to a close, I am very happy with how the year has treated Winthrop Development Consultants. We released new builds of all our products with some great new features and had a very successful trip to the USA for Community Summit, which included receiving a GPUG All Star Award for 2023 and the Community Summit Legends Award.
#MSDynGP Problems with MFA Email after upgrading Microsoft Dynamics GP

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.
