We recently held a Microsoft Dynamics GP User Group Meeting in St. Louis, MO. Our feature speakers were the owners from One of their products that caught my attention was “The Validator”. This product helps Dynamics GP users eliminate manual validation and reconciliation processes to make Microsoft Dynamics GP a better business solution by continuously monitoring critical areas of their solution. Also, another major takeaway that I think many current users of Microsoft Dynamics GP would find very interesting are the most commonly overlooked Set-Up and On-Going Use issues in Dynamics GP. Here is a small list that Reporting-Central shared with us.
User Security Set To POWERUSER
Future Fiscal Periods Open
Maximum Account Length set too low
Posting Not Set To Create Journal Entry Per Transaction
Dex Lock
Interrupted Batch
Stuck Process
Account Maintenance Allows Account Entry on Control Account
Account Posting Level Set To Summary
Maintain Account History Not Checked
Retained Earnings Category Not Set to 27
Checkbook Allows Duplicate Check Numbers
Customer Accounts Receivable Control Account empty
Maintenance Customer Missing Salesperson
Maintenance Customer Missing Tax Schedule
Vendor 1099 Box Checked With No Tax Id
Old Open Purchase Orders
These are just a small sample of the issues that Reporting-Central’s software can monitor and alert Microsoft Dynamics GP users.
If you have additional questions or would like to learn more about how “The Validator” could help your Microsoft Dynamics GP investment, please give me a call today at 636-237-2280 or email us at sales@turnkeytec.com.
