File in trash after autoupdate update 112
I installed office 2004 today. I ran the built in update function and pulled in AutoUpdate 1.1.2 which installed fine. I found the old version of it in trash, and deleted it. Upon restart, I find in the trash the following "recovered files" MSau_205 (folder) and then inside a file 0409Msau10002 at 928KB v 8.4 Application. Is this normal? I didn't find anything in the trash after autoupdate pulled in the 11.2.3 updater. Anyone see this?? As long as everything works as it should I wouldn't be concerned about the items in the Trash. Updates often need to replace files whic...

Make User Date update on 24/7 Great Plains session.
I'm using Great Plains 8. I have a 24/7 SOP Great Plains process running on the server. The orders imported use the 'User Date" to set the imported order's 'Order Date' value. The User Date does not increment on it's own. Can anyone tell me a way to update the User Date on this un-attended Great Plains session? Thanks! Kevin R How about a GP macro that changes the user date and then add that macro to run using Windows Scheduled Tasks? Never tried it but should work. "Kevin R" wrote: > I'm using Great Plains 8.
