Upgrade to 2010 R2?

I had no problem with a clean install of R2. When I tried to update a current installation I received the set of errors listed below right after the ‘Install Microsoft . . . ‘ was selected. Any ideas?

Watch David Musgrave's Moves on You Tube!!

David Musgrave
Shattered is the image of David Musgrave staring intently at his computer screen putting yet another finishing touch on the Support Debugging Tool.

Here's the scene - the Convergence Reception reaches a fevered pitch, the music starts to pound, and then David breaks loose with some moves all his own!

The Coca Cola Museum in Atlanta was the 'Place to Be' on Tuesday night (April 12, 2011) where Musgrave moved to the beat in a way that was nothing less than astonishing. Sheila Jefferson-Ross, always ready with a camera, captured this legendary display for your viewing pleasure.
Watch, as David reveals yet another of his hidden talents!

Be sure to post your comments so that David can see how much you support him in pursuing a place on "Australia's Got Talent!" See the video here

Enjoy!  Until next post!

SOP order and POP document in the same order

Just a quick post from Convergence.

Yesterday I was asked if it was possible for the PO created from a SOP document to retain the line item order of the PO. Their customer matched up the invoice with their PO when approving the bill. You certainly don't want any delay in receiving our customer's payment, so having the two documents match is essential.

The answer, yes you can!

Microsoft Professional Services sells a tool that will cause the PO to be created in the same line item order as the SOP document that created it. At last call the tool was a mere $500. This tool is not on the regular GP product offering so you must submit a support request (non-chargeable) to acquire it.

There are several other tools available from Microsoft that solve problems we have been laboring over for years. I have more detail at: http://dynamicsconfessions.blogspot.com/2010/02/tools-available-from-professional.html

Until next post!

House passes repeal of new Form 1099 reporting rules!

We were all holding our breath waiting for this to happen! It’s hard to imagine, but there were some who voted against it. Go figure. 

CCH® PAYROLL — 03/08/11

The House passed the repeal, on March 3, 2011, of a section of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148) that required businesses to file Form 1099 for all transactions valued at $600 or more, that is, the Small Business Paperwork Mandate Elimination Act of 2011 (H.R. 4). The measure now goes to the Senate for consideration.

The Senate passed its version, as an amendment to the FAA reauthorization bill on February 2, 2011 (S.B. 223) (see CCH Payroll Management Guide Report Letter 1333/2185, dated February 8, 2011).

The Obama Administration raised “serious concerns” about the method of paying for repeal of the Form 1099 reporting requirement for small businesses under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148) contained in a House bill. The administration in a written policy statement, said the proposed offset in the Comprehensive 1099 Tax Protection and Repayment Exchange Subsidy Overpayments Act of 2011 (HR 4) would increase taxes on certain middle-class families that incur unexpected health care tax liabilities even though they followed the rules.

A provision repealing the same information reporting requirements in the FAA Air Transportation Modernization and Safety Improvement Act also drew criticism by the administration. The aviation bill would pay for the repeal with an unspecified rescission of $44 billion which, the administration noted, could seriously disrupt services provided

by the federal government. The administration said it will continue to work with Congress to find an acceptable offset for repealing the bookkeeping requirement. (House Ways and Means Committee Report on the Small Business Paperwork Mandate Elimination Act of 2011 (HR 4).)
