“Verticalizing” Your Dynamics ERP Practice
Microsoft has been encouraging most of their Dynamics ERP partners to continue servicing their existing client bases and to also select a market or two where they can be uniquely knowledgeable and valuable. This blog post is about the accomplishment of that mission – the pros and cons, the benefits, and the drawbacks of making such a move.For me, it was at first unappealing to go down this road of “putting more eggs into one basket.” My reasons were threefold: (1) we had good success at attracting prospects to events comparing Dynamics GP to Dynamics NAV to Dynamics SL, (2) we had limited success in trying to focus on verticals as broad as “distribution,” “professional services organizations,” and “non-profits,” and (3) we had purchased … [Read more...] about “Verticalizing” Your Dynamics ERP Practice

Two Report Changes in Dynamics SL 2015 – Metadata and Emailing Print Previews
Microsoft Dynamics SL 2015 has a number of nice new features. I am going to highlight two that will make everyone’s reporting processes just a little better -- the addition of “meta” data on reports and the ability to email print previews. Feature #1 - Metadata What is metadata? Metadata is a technical way of saying extra data or additional attributes. The reason that it is important to you is that it allows the tables and columns that are referred to in a report to have “English” descriptions. So instead of looking up fields with a funky description like pjproj.pm_id01, you will now be able to see that field as “Project Type”.Here are a few examples. First, I will show you the project listreport. When you run this report, you are … [Read more...] about Two Report Changes in Dynamics SL 2015 – Metadata and Emailing Print Previews

Budget Import for Dynamics SL
Entering budgets into Microsoft Dynamics SL is a bit of a problem. We have developed a system at Boyer & Associates, called Budget Import, which allows the user to import an Excel spreadsheet used to create the budget, avoiding user error in converting or entering the data, and allowing the data to be inserted quickly and easily. It consists of two screens and allows for significant flexibility in how the source file is formatted, while remaining simple to setup.Currently in Dynamics SL, the standard Budget Maintenance screen (01.250.00) only allows you to access a single account and subaccount at a time:That gives you good control over each line in the budget, but consider that a company with 50 accounts (a tiny list) and 4 … [Read more...] about Budget Import for Dynamics SL
