Microsoft Dynamics Convergence Atlanta 2011: Day -1

Day -1: April 9, 2011

We are just a day away from the official Microsoft Dynamics Convergence Atlanta 2011 registration and reception.

Our day started very early, with David packing his stuff to check into the Omni Hotel, where he will be staying for the duration of the Conference. Once at the hotel, we dropped off his luggage and went to meet with Microsoft MVP and certified trainer, Leslie Vail, who would be helping us as usual with our timing and making sense of our presentation delivery approach. Leslie keeps us real!

We joined Leslie for breakfast at the Embassy Suites hotel where she is staying. Breakfast was all about catching up and prepping ourselves mentally for the grueling day ahead. We were joined by Sheila Jefferson-Russ and the conversation somehow diverted to comparing smartphones - iPhone vs Windows Phone 7 vs Blackberry - their memory management capabilities, and ability to add memory cards without having to destroy the phone to do so.

Breakfast ended and we walked up to the front of the hotel where we said our goodbyes for the day with Sheila and took some pics.

We then went to the lounge of the Omni hotel where David and I would go over our Support Debugging Tool presentation flow. Leslie, as usual, helped us and provided some very good ideas around the presentation, which keeps us grounded and with the prize in mind.

 A little down the road, and after some lunch, came Mr-larger-than-life MVP Mark Polino. Mark was meeting up with the eOne Solutions boys for some ideas exchange.

The day went on until the Partner's Reception where we had a chance to meet up with some of the folks that always seem to be around these events. Here are some pictures for your delight.

Well, it's been a long day, so now it's time to go back home and get some rest. Tomorrow, GPUG's DayONE begins and with it comes our first presentation.

Until next post!

DBMS: 12 Microsoft Dynamics GP: 0 error when updating to Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 R2

Hello all! It's been quite a while since I've actually written anything of remote interest to anyone who follows my blog, but at the same time, you will be pleased to know that I've been quite busy in the consulting front, with upgrades, server migrations, complex multi-instance postings involving 10's of thousands of transactions, wrapping up some Field Service Automation projects, and the list goes on and on. This time around I want to bring to the forefront, an issue I encountered updating  from Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 SP2 to Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 R2 plus the latest service pack. Background My client requested a server migration to a new environment where they wanted to deploy Dynamics GP 2013 R2 web client (plus the latest service pack) and upgrade their relational database management system to Microsoft SQL Server 2014. This is something I'm absolutely comfortable with (for the most part) given also that my client was sitting at Microsoft Dynamics

Moving on from my previous article on a similar subject - see Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'BASEUOFM' error when clicking on Items List in Navigation Pane , I recently came across this error,  Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'CONTACT' when clicking on the All Purchasing Transactions list under the Purchasing Navigation Pane option, after performing an upgrade from Microsoft Dynamics GP 9.0 to Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 R2. All Purchasing Transactions list error - Purchasing Navigation List The name of the global temp table - in this case, tempdb.dbo.##2093338- varies in almost all cases, but the end result of the error is the same. The issue has been identified running Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 RTM, SP1 or SP2. Upon further review, the issue is due to bad data in the Vendor ID (VENDORID) column in the Purchasing Receipt History table (POP30300). In summary, if you have a purchasing receipt with a blank vendor ID or a vendor ID that doe
