Thanks Kerry!

I ended up reacquainting myself with the (Price List Utilities) Copy Price List Wizard, to give that team what they needed.

I have a user that wishes to add a new 16H Unit of Measure to the Schedule ID EACH.

Is it possible to roll “16H” down to the Price Lists for all existing Items?

So, many years ago, I got bored and a little frustrated watching the GP upgrade progress. I had recently moved from a 4 GP Company installation to a 32 Company site and practiced the upgrade several times to catch issues, and to estimate completion time. This would have been around 2012 or so, I think.

If you have watched the GP upgrade appear…

This turned out to be a mapping and value transformation issue with Wipfli ExpenseConnect. We are in the process of fixing the configuration with the help of Wipfli Support.

We have this implemented in multiple GP companies and ExpenseConnect was incorrectly selecting one of the other companies and using the next available Journal number from…

Thanks David!

If I can narrow enough of the issue to reproduce it, then I will try a trace.

Wipfli ExpenseConnect, I believe, makes eConnect calls as part of their processing.

Yes, the issue is with jumping JE numbers. It is set correctly (7 digits) in the GL40000 Table. 1187586 is the next at this moment.

Some, not all Wipfli ExpenseConnect processed records jump back to JEs in the 12445 to 12669 (so far) range.

Does anyone have a solution similar the PSTL PO numbering fix?

Next purchase order number jumping or wrong

We have implemented Wipfli ExpenseConnect and have started seeing Journal Entry numbers jump back to 5-digit numbers, then back to 7-digit numbers again. We have other processes generating JE numbers and all are staying a…

A month is a long time, but does your SQL Admin keep regular backups going back that far?

I have both a DEV and UAT GP copies. When someone occasionally does something like this, I restore the closest backup to the deletion to our test environment and either bring it up in GP there or just query the data from the GP SQL tables.

Have your seen this article? It walks through the steps and does mention “…This will change the Report Type default back to Standard. Users can still select Template as an option if needed.”

I had this older SQL Script in my toolbox from many years ago. Will this do what your need?

P.S. I always try to leave the original creator’s info in the script.

We built up a GP Security Task for SmartList access using GP Power Tools. Create a Role with these and the DEFAULT Task and assign it to a test user. If your users use the drill-back functionality of the lists, you will likely need additional access.

If you have GP Power Tools, it has a feature to start a Security Trace, click what you need them…

I have also worked with GP for quite a while, since GP 8.0. From what I have seen, GP installations might just outlive us all! Take a look at how many older versions of GP are sitting out with end-users happy with what they have.

The pool of GP Admins may dwindle, but I suspect you could find users needing GP support for the next 10-15…

SmartConnect 21 REST Service Setup for Concur?

We purchased SmartConnect but it is taking them a very long time to schedule the support hours we paid for.

I am in the process of mapping those large Concur files to GP, but I would really like to use the SmartConnect 21 REST Service and bypass the whole file moving process.

Does anyone have a JSON…

Good to know. I am trying to get SmartConnect approved for purchase now. I am comfortable with this tool and can use it for many projects.

We haven’t purchased Wipfli yet. The Finance team with me on the demo were discouraged by the lack of a Concur PO to GP path. I read some vague mentions on an Armanino solution. Know anything about that?

What have you got? Another 3rd party product you can recommend? An add-on for POs and WipFli? A custom solution?

Our team here is looking for a product to integrate data between Concur and Dynamics GP (currently at 18.3). We have looked at Wipfli and it does most of what we need but does not move POs generated in Concur to GP. All our PO’s are generated on the Concur side so that is a hole in our requirements.

– Has anyone used Wipfli and worked…

I am helping them look at testing the Averaging Convention option. Full Month or Full Period

We are almost there in Test. One last issue my user has noticed?

…”One thing I am noticing is that in the first period it is calculating the depreciation by day. Is there an option that I should choose so that no matter which day during the month the asset is purchased that it take an entire period of depreciation?“

How do were resolve that?

Our Partner incorrectly set up our Fixed Assets Calendar with 13 periods. We just caught this now and need to correct the depreciation/accumulated depreciation for 12 periods.

Example…

date of 8/1/22 $5,000 asset with 3 year Straight Line Org Life with no averaging convention and no switch over.

1. 13 periods calculates as $5000/3/13=…

When you create a GP Account, GP creates a SQL login (only usable from the GP Client., so it’s safe)

Assign the appropriate and necessary GP Security Roles to that GP account name.

–> In SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) find that same name, as a SQL level login, and assign it the “sysadmin” SQL role. That account will now be able to add…

A good question but those are ok. We have both 2024 and 2025 created. The batch has dates through 9/2024

My user reported a problem with a Deferral Batch not posting to Closed Future Periods, but the Deferral Setup allows it.

We are using Dynamics GP 18.3
