Important Considerations For Dynamics GP Updates

In this Community Summit North America 2022 moment, David Laster, Director, Software Solutions (GP/BC/PBI), GraVoc, offers insights into ensuring a Dynamics GP upgrade is a success.

Highlights

00:08 – One part of a Dynamics GP upgrade that is always important to consider is independent software vendor (ISV) products – just about every environment has one. While there are “core, straight-up GP environments,” they are not truly tapping into the potential of the application.

00:22 – An ISV product inside Dynamics GP is crucial because they offer new features, codes, reg keys, and an upgrade path. Depending on the complexity of the ISV product, this may be important to consider during an upgrade.

00:55 – GP Payroll “has its own nuance” within the recent changes made to Dynamics GP, human resources, and integrity data.

01:02 – There is a variety of information “out there” about the differences between the old and new code in Dynamics GP regarding payroll and HR features. For those who are using Dynamics GP for payroll purposes, Laster says they must be aware of these new changes.
