I am starting to work with emailing SOP documents using Dynamics GP 2010 and new functionality that we are going to be releasing in an upcoming build of GP Reports Viewer. It’s pretty cool stuff, however, as I am working with customers to set this up, we’re finding that out-of-the box GP does not have any […]

SQL view for user activity in Dynamics GP
There are many different pieces of code that I have seen for this over the years, but more often than not what our users ask me for is a way to quickly see who is logged into GP, what company, and when did they log in. While this can easily be seen on the User Activity window (GP | […]

Dynamics GP 10.0 has brought about a drastic change in GP security.
