I'm on a roll tonight. I love version 2013, but still there are some basic items I think need to be addressed. If you think so too, cast your vote by using the link above.
Are you tired of your Accrued Purchases account not matching your Received but not Invoiced report? How many times has a vendor payable been entered without matching it to the receipt?
Wouldn't it be nice if Dynamics GP warned you if you were entering a payables transaction for a vendor that has an outstanding PO or Uninvoiced receipt?
Too often a vendor invoice comes into the company and it's entered into A/P without going through the invoice matching procress in POP. We need a method for the user to be alerted if a vendor's invoice is entered to the Payables transaction entry window while there is an outstanding uninvoiced receipt.
The risk is that we end up with uninvoiced POs or worse, the vendor is paid twice by mistake.
Let me know what you think, or if you have devised a non-policy workaround.
Until next post!

Perform a 'Credit Card' run like a Check Run
If you want to pay your vendor invoices with a credit card in a batch AND be able to reconcile the credit card statement like you do a bank statement, please vote for the above product enhancement by clicking on the shortcut above.
Paying vendors with a credit card is the standard for many companies. You can get downloads from the credit card companies and import vendor payables. We need to keep track of the actual vendors for better expense management.
The problem is that the only way we can pay vendor invoices with a credit card is to enter a manual payment. A manual payment is not a viable solution for a company with more than just a few credit card transactions.
We need to be able to use a credit card as the payment source for a 'check run'. As part of that process, we need to be able to reconcile the credit card source with the credit card bill much like we do with bank statements and checkbooks.
If you agree, please vote for the enhancement using the link above.
Thanks!
Until next post!

Product Suggestion. Add item to all sites
Multi-site users Unite!
Dynamics GP allows you to assign all items to a single site, but it does not let you assign an item to ALL sites.
I think it's time we had a window where we could pick an item, or a group of items and assign them to the site(s) of our choice with the click of a button. If you think so too, vote for the suggestion using the link below.

Let's get these details cleaned up Microsoft, we have the best product - let's prove it.

The Resurgence of Dexterity - - Dexterity Lives!!
Learn it while you still can!
Here at the Technical Airlift, VSTools programmers and VBA programmers alike have learned that support for these two products will not be included in the phase 1 release of the 2013 Web Client.
So what’s a guy to do??? For VSTools, the answer is simple. You need to create your user interface in Dexterity; all of your .NET code should work just fine. Well, you will also need to modify your code to point to the new events, but that should be a piece of cake for a .NET programmer.
For VBA, it’s a little more challenging; but just a little. You need only to transform your VBA code into sanScript. Nothing more than a little syntax change. If you have any VBA forms, you need to fashion them into Dexterity forms. You’ll find Dexterity is even easier to work with than VBA; and it looks better too.
What you need to do now, is learn Dexterity. But where? How? These are the important questions.
You’re in luck!
There is a Dexterity Basics class running in Orlando, Florida the week of October 8th. Just think, you could have all of your code converted before the Holidays. Just in time for the 2013 release! There are still some spots in the class available for you.
The Dex I class is being held at the facility of Integrated Business Group, they are a Certified Learning Resources partner and have the best classrooms I have ever seen. Comfortable chairs and lots of room.
Spend the week with me in Orlando and you’ll learn everything described in the synopsis below.
For more information and to register for the class, call Roxanna Alvarez @ 407-677-0370 or e-mail her directly ralvarez@ibgnet.com.
Date and Location:
- When: October 8th – October 12th
- Where: Orlando Florida
You can download a synopsis of the class Here:

I have pasted the synopsis below if the download doesn't work.
I hope to see you there!
Until Next Post!

Dexterity I – Product Fundamentals
Synopsis:
Dexterity Product Fundamentals will teach you about the development environment used to build the Microsoft Dynamics GP family of products. This course will provide you with the foundation you need to build integrated, database-independent applications. In addition, you will learn how to provide powerful application functionality for Microsoft Dynamics GP. By actively participating in these classes, you should learn: Basic programming techniques used by Microsoft Dynamics GP to develop their core modules.
- How to modify existing Dynamics GP forms and reports in order to make customizations for customers.
- How to develop add-on applications that will interact with the Dynamics GP products to meet specific requests by customers.
- How to package and ship your dictionary allowing Microsoft Dynamics GP to make updates to Dynamics GP without affecting the developer's dictionary.
- How to register your product with Microsoft Dynamics GP using a unique Product ID to ensure no duplication of add-on applications with the same name.
- How to develop add-on applications that will "look and feel" like Dynamics GP and provide seamless interface between the applications to ensure a professional finished product.
- How to use object triggers, which are scripts in your applications that are invoked by events in Dynamics GP, allowing several developers to deliver enhancements to the same Dynamics GP form.
