Microsoft Dynamics #CONV14 Atlanta - My sessions are out!



Hi all!

Microsoft Dynamics Convergence 2014 Atlanta is around the corner! Unbelievable to think just a few days aback I was sending out New Year's greetings and now we are talking about an event to be held in March, a month and few days away. Where has time gone?

Nonetheless, I still have some work to do to finalize my slide decks and demos for my sessions, but you won't be able to tell from my excitement about participating at this Convergence. I wanted to share with you the sessions I will be presenting and, of course, ask for your support with your attendance.

A bit more about my sessions...

CSGP014 IS NOT a rehash of my past Customization sessions. This time I will be covering some real cool Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 customization techniques that I feel all beginners should take advantage of - and why not, even developers who have had a couple years of experience with the customization tools, so I would say if you are a beginner or intermediate level person, this session is for you.

For CSGP008, I'm picking up where my good friend Kelly Youells left off - as you can tell, I have some pretty big shoes to fill. My session, nonetheless, will cover some of the traditional upgrade considerations along with the new cool stuff for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013, like web client, for example.

Finally, I will be driving an interactive discussion with some very cool individuals, one of whom happens to be a direct customer of ours here at IntellPartners. All my panelists will be talking about their experiences with Microsoft Dynamics GP in the cloud and, of course, web client. You won't want to miss this interactive!

Please like this post on Facebook or Twitter or simply drop me a quick comment to let me know which session you are planning to attend.

Until next post!

Hi Mariano

Since you say you are picking up where Kelly Youells left off for the upgrade sessions does this mean Kelly has left Microsoft?

Thanks

Jennifer,

Not a chance! Kelly is still with Microsoft, but I think she just want a shot at something new. She passed on the baton to me to take this presentation (hopefully) to the next level.

Now that you asked, please come to my session :-)

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

Image
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...

Do I have to use those "Z-" currency IDs in GP?

Image
I know this seems like a trivia question, but recently I have come across a number of clients who have been using Microsoft Dynamics GP for a number of years and have been told by their former partners that they *must* use the predefined currency IDs created after adding the sample company, with no real explanation to support these claims. Case in point, my new client in Saudi Arabia, has been struggling for years to understand why they were told to prefix all currency IDs with the "Z-". So they went ahead and setup "Z-SR" for the Saudi Real. If you are familiar with Microsoft Dynamics GP and the sample company, Fabrikam, you may have noticed by now that after adding the sample company (which is not a requirement by any means), you will get a number of predefined currencies such as Z-US$ (US Dollars), Z-UK (British Pounds), Z-C$ (Canadian Dollars), Z-AUD (Australian Dollars), and so forth, accompanied by a number of exchange rate tables. If you are not familiar wi...

Microsoft Dynamics GP Scrolling Windows and Line Sequence Numbers

Image
I thought I would write about something meaningless that no one really thinks about. However, I realized that this is a compelling topic since it makes for some interesting discussion around the ability to insert line items withinin most transaction scrolling windows. Let’s take some time to understand where Line Sequence Numbers come from. A Line Sequence Number is auto generated by Dynamics GP and uses a seed value of 16,384 as a basis for the first line. Each subsequent line in the scrolling window is incremented by this number, so line number 2 would have a Line Sequence Number value of 32,768, line number 3 would have Line Sequence Number Value of 49,152, and so on. Since most GP transaction entry scrolling windows allow inserting rows in between line items, the newly inserted Line Sequence Number value is calculated as an average between the previous and the next line item sequences, i.e., if you were to insert an item in between row 1 and row 2 in the scrolling window -- keep in...
