The following is a situation that I have come across a couple of different times.  What people want to do is set up a macro to run at night to generate their Safepay EFT file.  They want to just set it up to run every night whether there are transactions to process or not.

This particular situation has come up in a number of support incidents and I also run into this myself on occasion.  The situation is that you have a cross dictionary procedure or function trigger on a script and one of the parameters is a third party table buffer.

This is really an extension of the blog article that David Musgrave wrote VBA – Welcome to Dynamics Example, but instead of using VBA to play the sound file, we are using Dexterity. The same method is called in the winmm.dll, but this is just the Dexterity way to do it. I didn’t include trigger information on this because you could really put this anywhere.

This article is a result of a couple of recent support incidents where developers would like to read a config from from a Visual Studio Tools (VSTools) addin. VSTools is a special situation because for one, it is a dll, not an exe, and second it only runs if GP is running. VSTools can automatically access the dynamics.exe.config file, steps on how to do that are outlined in KB Article 933930 (Not available).  The KB is for 9.0 and references the Dynamics.config file, but it also works for the Dynamics.exe.config on 10.0.

A question was posted to the newsgroups recently that reminded me that I had also run into the same situation previously.

I was trying to drag a shortcut into a folder that I had also created and it wouldn’t drag & drop for me in my Dynamics GP 10.0.  I went back to 9.0 and had no issue doing this but it just wouldn’t work in 10.0.

One question that I’ve been asked a few times in the past has been – “Can I read/write to other sections of the Dex.ini other than the [General] section with Dexterity?”.

Here I presume the questioner would like to have their own section of the dex.ini file to write their own application settings instead of mixing them into the settings that Dynamics GP uses.

Having supported the various customization tools over the years, you run into common requests again and again.  Something that often surprises me is that you get requests to ‘customize’ Dynamics GP to make it do something and as it turns out Dynamics GP already does this out of the box.

This post will provide some steps on using the MBF Result Viewer API to pass data to the Dynamics GP Web Services.    The specific example shows how you can remove a line item from a Sales Order using the UpdateSalesOrder method.   The sales order number, line sequence number, and item number can be pulled off the Rich List Result Viewer web part and passed to the web services.

Every so often, a developer might need to check or set the status of a form level menu item.  Say, for instance, the goal would be to make sure that the “Add Item” menu item of the Sales Transaction Entry Options menu was checked.

This post is due to requests I have come across in the past and very recently in a support incident.  The question raised was how to retrieve quantity amounts like Quantity On Hand for inventory items?  This Visual Studio 2005 (C#) sample shows how to retrieve the Quantity On Hand value for an Inventory Item.  The SalesItem class provides a Quantities property which is a collection of SalesItemWarehouse objects.  The SalesItemWarehouse object contains the different quantity amounts for each Item and Site combination.  These values are stored in the IV00102 table.

A common situation that can happen when coding with Dexterity is an error that you attempted to use the old()/diff() function from a field that doesn’t have focus. The exact error message is as follows:

Unhandled Script Exception: Attempt to use old()/diff() from a field that does not have focus.
