Microsoft @HoloLens - The stuff of science fiction

I usually don't deviate much off the topic of Microsoft Dynamics GP, but this new piece of Microsoft technology is certainly a force to be reckoned with and worth a note. If this thing works as advertised, pretty soon your interaction with the world around will be turned upside down, whether you are a gamer, a designer, an engineer, or who knows. Enjoy the videos and let me know what you think. Do you see this being used with Dynamics GP in the feature? The folks over at C|Net decided to take it a bit further and create a complete holo-experience. Now, this stuff is really cool. Until next post!

Now, here's something you don't see every day: in the trench software development and testing engineers having time to write anything other than code. Well, the Microsoft Dynamics GP Engineering Team (consisting of the Development Engineering and Testing teams) have decided to break their 'silence' (so to speak) to pick up their digital pens and deliver some awesome content. From this group you can expect content around the inner works of Service Based Architecture, Workflow and myriads of other engineering topics. If you are an avid Microsoft Dynamics GP development engineer, a Microsoft Dynamics GP ISV, a technical consultant looking to propel your knowledge to new heights, then this new resource is for you! Expect coverage from folks like Alice Newsam, Rob Anderson, Michael Hammond, Chris Rudolph, Yuri Mikeev and others. Below please find the link to the Dynamics GP Engineering Team Blog: Dynamics GP Engineering Team Blog Until next post! MG.- Mariano

Third reason to attend #CONV15: @dgpblogster and @WinthropDC

Wow! As if having Satya Nadella and OneRepublic as a 1-2 punch combination reason for attending Convergence 2015 in Atlanta, Microsoft has now decided to amp up the magic by inviting no other than the Dynamic Duo of presentations: David Musgrave and Mariano Gomez (that would be me!). Mariano Gomez and David Musgrave Inside joke: in case you can't tell us apart, I'm the taller one and David is the shorter one Realizing no event is complete without a formidable duo of presenters, Microsoft has reached out to us -- as the famous LeBron James once said, " Not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5... ", but 6 times now to come and help to make this one of the biggest customer events ever. David and I will be delivering a blockbuster session, CS15G024: Microsoft Dynamics GP 2015 customization which will feature tips and techniques we've learned for developing Dexterity and Visual Studio Tools customizations for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2015. And yes, that includes .NET

SOP Quick Print feature does not work when window ribbons are enabled

Happy New Year!! Hope all of you had a great time with family and friends and that you are back getting used to the daily grind once more. Today, I want to kick off the year with an issue in Sales Transaction Entry window related to the cool ribbons implemented since Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 R2. By now, you are probably getting used to the absolutely gorgeous user interface which features Microsoft Office style ribbons on every window. Furthermore, you probably already know that the use of such ribbons is actually customizable and in many ways optional - albeit being the default configuration - as described by fellow Microsoft Dynamics GP MVP, Leslie Vail in her article GP 2013 R2 Ribbons . As it turns out, there's a Dex.ini switch, EnableWCRibbons=FALSE , that controls whether ribbons are enabled within Microsoft Dynamics GP or not. When ribbons are enabled, users can further customize the appearance of the action pane or return to the traditional menu bar for each window.
