Dynamics.Application Object not available on Web Client

Mar 4, 2020 Tagged with C#, Development, Dynamics GP, Visual C#, Visual Studio Tools, Web Client No Comments

This article comes about because we have identified a feature of GP Power Tools that does not work as expected on the Web Client. GP Power Tools has the ability to run scripts and register triggers against Modifier added fields and Modal Dialogs. These features uses the Dynamics.Application object and in particular a suite of functionality historically known as “Continuum”.

We can now confirm that the Dynamics.Application object is not available at all when running Microsoft Dynamics GP in the Web Client and so any functionality reliant on this object will fail to work.

GP Power Tools – Administrator Tools Module can provide this functionality without needing customizations. (https://WinthropDC.com/GPPT)

Following on from my previous posts: Customising the Company Login window series Part 1 – Introduction, Customising the Company Login window series Part 2 – Visual Basic for Applications and Customising the Company Login window series Part 3 – Dexterity, here is a discussion about trying to create a solution using Visual Studio Tools.

This is a reposting of an article Alice Newsam originally wrote on my Developing for Dynamics GP blog.

Hello, my name is Alice Newsam and I am software engineer on the Dynamics GP team focusing on Dexterity and I have a question for you:

Have you ever thought to yourself while working in Dexterity “I know there’s a .NET class that does this. It would be handy to access that right about now.” or “If only I could increase the string size to hold that data.”?

Well read on because you’ll be excited to learn about a feature that the GP Development team is currently working on for the GP 2015 release: .NET Interop.

I ran across an interesting case the other day with eConnect. I had a similar type of case I wrote about previously, but this one is for a completely different reason.

Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 SP2 – Things to consider when moving your Visual Studio Tools add-ins to the web client

Oct 3, 2013 Tagged with Alice Newsam, C#, GP 2013, NDM, VB, Visual Studio Tools 2 Comments

This is a reposting of an article Alice Newsam originally wrote on my Developing for Dynamics GP blog.

One of the features included in the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 2 release was the ability to now render Visual Studio Tools customizations in the web client. For those of you that missed the overview session of this feature at the recent Microsoft Dynamics GP Technical Airlift 2013, I thought I’d share some “things to consider” in a post.

Quick Tip: Debugging Visual Studio Tools

Jul 22, 2013 Tagged with C#, Developer Toolkit, Lee Butenhoff, NDM, Quick Tips, VB, Visual Studio Tools 6 Comments

This is a reposting of an article Lee Butenhoff originally wrote on my Developing for Dynamics GP blog.

Let’s jump right in. We debug our Visual Studio applications over and over; and attaching to the test environment is among the most important, and time-consuming skills we use. (How many times have I launched GP2010 when I was thinking of GP2013?)

Of course we all simplify our testing by building the dll and pdb files directly in the DynamicsAddins folder (right?). If not, start doing that.

Were that the only thing to learn here, that knowledge alone would be worth the price of admission. But it’s a fairly obvious step, and many of us already send the built dll file to the folder.

Quick Tip: Capturing the Save Event with Visual Studio Tools

Aug 7, 2012 Tagged with Best Practice, C#, Development Tools, Quick Tips, VB, Visual Studio Tools 2 Comments

This is a reposting of an article I originally wrote on my Developing for Dynamics GP blog.

I recently responded to a community post which was asking how to ensure that all save events from the Item Maintenance window were captured using Visual Studio Tools. The aim was to make sure that the additional fields added to the window with Modifier were saved when the item data in the window was saved.

Using a GP Web Service Extension in the Connector for Microsoft Dynamics GP

Jun 21, 2012 Tagged with C#, Chris Roehrich, CRM, Development Tools, NDM, Web Services 2 Comments

This is a reposting of an article Chris Roehrich originally wrote on my Developing for Dynamics GP blog.

The Connector for Microsoft Dynamics provides a powerful integration platform that can be customized and extended with the CRM Connector SDK and Web Services for Microsoft Dynamics GP SDK tool sets. The CRM Connector for Microsoft Dynamics GP page in PartnerSource has various downloads to get you started with the CRM Connector including the SDK download. You can find the GP Web Services SDK download here. Additionally, the Dynamics GP Web Services SDK page on MSDN contains the same reference information found in the download page and is available to those without accessing PartnerSource or CustomerSource and can be helpful for quick access.
