- [Instructor] Let's take a look
at some of the recent software updates
that Microsoft has made to Dynamics GP.
Microsoft continues to enhance and extend
the Dynamics GP product,
bringing us more and more ways
of looking at the same data that's already there,
but in a more convenient fashion.
That is one of the key initiatives
that they've brought to us.
This feature's available in GP 2018
and it was first introduced in GP 2016.
It's called the All-in-One viewer.
If we click on the Inquiry menu,
we can go to Sales and see it there.
Sales All-in-One View.
Under Purchasing, we also have an All-in-One View.
And Inventory, as well, has an All-in-One View.
This is a feature that users have been asking for for years.
There are some add-on products,
Sales Pad is one of the products that comes to mind,
that provide more of these
kinds of holistic views of the system.
But this is really inherent in the product
and it works great.
There's filtering capability
and there is a very logical,
holistic view of all of the documents
that are tied together
as we see in this Sales All-in-One view.
We can see back orders,
invoices, cash receipts, cash returns
and we can even display more by clicking on options
and choosing other documents to see.
For instance, Quotes.
Another key software update that I'd like to point out
is the SmartList Designer.
If you're familiar with earlier versions of Dynamics GP,
you already know the SmartList.
Now, released in GP 2018
and first appearing in GP 2016,
is the SmartList Designer,
allowing you to build your own SmartList,
similar to the SmartList Builder
that was available before.
Additionally, you can capture
exception storing budget imports.
So if you are importing a budget from Excel,
you will be using a wizard to do so,
and I'm going through that process now.
When I browse for my file,
and select it, I click open,
I select my worksheet, click next and when I finish,
a report will appear that shows
if there were any missing accounts
or accounts that were duplicated
and that's this very important
Budget Import Exception Report.
There's so many new features
in the new versions, GP 2016, GP 2018,
we'll be checking out more of those in this course.
So, stay tuned.
