Below is an old tip from one of the GP Reports Viewer monthly newsletters. In the past few months I have had to look this up several times, because I just cannot seem to remember the syntax, so I thought I would put it on my blog, where it will be easier for to find […]

SQL view for rolling 12 months of sales by item in Dynamics GP
Rolling twelve month reports are not always very easy to create, and I have been seeing more requests for them, so I thought I would show an example of one way to do this. The view below is a variation of my sales by item by month view, however instead of specifying all months in […]

SQL view for Variable Allocation Accounts in Dynamics GP
Below is a view that will return a list of the distribution and breakdown accounts for all active variable allocation accounts in your Dynamics GP. Nothing fancy, but sometimes it is easier to have a report of these rather than have to look at them on the screen, specially since you have to click on […]

SQL view for commissions details in Dynamics GP
Commissions are typically difficult to create generic reports for, as many companies have unique commission structures. We find that out-of-the-box functionality in GP does not really work for most companies and often the commissions are recorded in ways other than what was intended. That said, if you find that you are using the commissions functionality […]

Dynamics GP SOP line items with serial numbers and comments
Based on some reader requests, this new view is a combination of my All SOP Line Items view and the recently posted script showing how to get a concatenated list of serial numbers in SQL. This new view will return all posted (history) or unposted (open) Sales Order Processing line items with the associated serial numbers (or lot numbers). […]

Concatenating strings in SQL Server
This SQL Server tip comes from the April 2012 edition of the GP Reports Viewer newsletter. A request that we have seen many times when creating SOP invoices for Dynamics GP is to concatenate serial numbers. So if there is an item with serial numbers, instead of showing a list with one serial number per […]

SQL view for sales quantities by customer by item by year
Seems like no many how many variations of sales reports there are, people will always want more. I recently had a request for something similar to my view for sales quantities by item by year, but also adding in the customer. Below is code for a view to accomplish this. This view makes a number of […]

SQL view for current Receivables aging in Dynamics GP
I have created a variation on my view that shows all unapplied Receivables transactions to show customer aging in buckets. This is only looking at functional currency and will return data in summary, meaning one row per customer with a balance. I am hard-coding the aging using the default aging setup installed with GP, which is aging by […]

SQL view for sales quantities by item by year
Ever since I published my view for sales by item by year I started receiving requests for the same type of view showing quantities instead of amounts. There are two ways of doing this, once from inventory and another from sales. Hard to say which is the best, as I have seen arguments for both, […]

SQL view for customer yearly totals in Dynamics GP
As a follow up to my SQL view for vendor yearly totals, here is something similar for customers. I have combined sales less credits/returns in one column, please take a look at the notes above the code (on lines 5 through 16 below) to see more details about the logic I am using. The code […]

SQL view for vendor yearly totals in Dynamics GP
There has been a lot of talk lately about the year end close Payables and Receivables. I feel like I have spent the last week or two justifying my reasoning for not needing to perform the year end close for Payables and Receivables to many of my customers and blog readers. (For more on this, […]

In response to a reader request, I have created this new view based on my Vendor Yearly Totals view that will show monthly totals for your Dynamics GP Vendors for all years. This view will show both the numbers and names of the months and assumes that you have 12 periods corresponding to the calendar […]

SQL view for SOP email setup in GP 2010
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 bank deposits and receipts in Dynamics GP
About a year ago I published a view for a Checkbook Register and have received some follow up requests asking for a way to show the receipt details. Primarily this request seems to come from the need to see the difference in dates between the receipts and the deposits for tracking down possible bank reconciliation issues. I didn’t want to […]

SQL view for current Payables aging in Dynamics GP
Over the past few years I have had several requests for a summary current Payables aging report that can be easily exported into Excel. Yes, you can play with the Report Writer aging report to take out the headers and make it export to Excel, but sometimes there are other reasons for wanting a report outside […]

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 | […]

SQL view for sales by item by month
Here is a new Dynamics GP SQL view in reponsse to a reader that liked my view for sales by item by year, but wanted to see the same thing by month. I am making a few assumptions (listed in the view comments), and am hard coding one year at a time (2011 in this example). You can easily […]

SQL view for sales by item by year
I had a request from a blog reader for a view that shows sales of items by year. This seemed like pretty useful code to create, so I put the following view together. I am making a few assumptions (listed in the view comments), and am hard coding years from 2005 through 2011. You can easily change the years or […]
