The Data Conversion Conundrum

9/15/2017

Posted by George Delp

Explaining how to handle data conversion to anyone implementing a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software is probably the most difficult concept to explain. Most people want all of their data from their existing system ready to go in there new system on day one. While this is a wonderful idea, the actual act of doing that is easier said than done.

7/11/2017

Posted by Chelsea Schlepp

A couple of the most frequent questions I get from my existing GP clients include - when is the right time to upgrade and when do I have to upgrade? There are a couple of questions I advise them to ask themselves with regards to upgrades – when is my version out of support and what can I take advantage of by upgrading?

We love Excel here at InterDyn Artis! Who doesn't, right? As an accountant, I live in Excel. This is the easiest place for me to track and create Journal Entries. But after all that work, how do we get it into our accounting system, Microsoft Dynamics GP? Easy, we just 'Paste' the entry. Simple, I know.

Microsoft Dynamics GP - Here's to 10 more years!

Microsoft Dynamics GP sample company

It’s hard to believe, but 10 years ago no one even had an iPhone. WOW! Think about all that has changed, just in the scope of ‘cell phones’ – mind boggling, right?! George W. Bush was our President – am I the only one who feels like that was SO long ago? 10 years can seem like a lot… but is it really? Justin Bieber posted his first YouTube video 10 years ago. Miley Cyrus was still Hannah Montana… Oh my, I have to stop. I’m feeling very old right now.

For those folks who use the Microsoft Dynamics GP sample company, ‘Fabrikam’ (formerly The World Online), you know that the default date is set to April 12, 2017. This date has seemed so far away to us all and now, 10 years later here it is, it’s Fabrikam Day.

Are Your Dynamics GP 1099 Amounts Incorrect in the 1099 Details Window?

3/13/2017

Posted by Shannon Mullins

I recently assisted a client who was experiencing 1099 pains after completing an upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics GP 2015 this past year. When reviewing the edit 1099 transaction window and historical AP transactions, the 1099 amounts were all correct. However, upon viewing the 1099 details window along with the edit 1099 amounts report, the amounts were all off. It appears that every 1099 amount prior to upgrading was lost in table PM00204 during the client upgrade.
