2005 Deluxe
Upgraded from 2003. Seems like I've lost functionality. Can't find how to separate catagory entry between category and subcategory (all one entry now). Also can't find the MoneySide FollowUP Notes that I used to have on the home page. Am I not looking in the right place? Thanks. MoneySide has been gone since M04. You are, IIRC, the second person to post here having noticed. As to dual cat lists: see http://umpmfaq.info/faqdb.php?q=161. BTW, you are supposed to prefer single list.

Going Live with GP
I plan to start using GP Sept 1. We have not transferred any historical transaction from the old accounting system. All of our Vendors, Customers, Inv Items etc. are entered and we have tested all functions of AP AR GL. Does anyone have a checklist of things to do when starting with a new GP accounting system? I understand the basics things such as Enter open invoices in AP and AR Enter open POs Enter begining GL account balances fromt the old accounting system Begining bank balances and so on. I just want to make sure that I'm not overlooking something so a check list from someone ...

Assign Activity to Queue in Workflow
Hi, In the regular user interface we can assign an activity to a user or queue, however in a workflow we can only assign an activity to a user. Why is that? Is there any workaround other than an assembly? Thanks! You can assign an activity in CRM 3.0 to a queue via workflow. If the primary entity of the workflow is an activity, add an "Assign entity" step to the workflow. In the Assign Entity dialog, you will see a three radio button and the bottom one for Queue should be enabled. Click that and then click the "Assign to" button Thanks Noor "Dynamics" wro...

Lookup cell above next value >0
I have a table with two rows, 33 columns long. Top row has Years (2004 to 2036) in it and the row below is intended for the inputing of values in percentage form. Some of the cells in bottom row may be left blank or with 0 value. Elsewhere on my spreadsheet I want to create formulas that will return the top row value (year) for each year where the value in bottom row is greater than 0. For example, if A1 = 2004 A2 = 2005 A3 = 2006 A4 = 2007 B1 = 0 % B2 = 5 % B3 = blank B4 = 20% What formula in cell C1 will return value "2005" and in cell C2 the next year ...

Migrating data from GP to GP
Hi, I have a GP7.5 installation when all data is, and a new GP8 installation on a different server. I need to migrate inventory data from the GP7.5 to GP8. I know that i should use the integration manager. But using it means that i should know the data source structure which is GP, and this is very complex because i need to migrate all inventory module, not a few data. PS: i don't what to make an upgrade because other modules are different in the 2 installations. Does anyone have any idea on this issue?

GP concurrent user and SQL 2005 CAL
assuming a 10 con-current licenses being installed on 15 workstation, with 15 users in GP. How many SQL 2005 CAL is needed ? HFlo, Server plus user client access license (CAL) licensing requires a separate Server license for each server on which the software is installed, plus a user CAL for each user accessing the server. The user CAL model will likely be more cost effective than device CALs if there are multiple devices per user (for example, a user has a laptop and handheld computer accessing SQL Server).

Questions about GP Client upgrade configuration
I'm getting ready to install a Service pack for GP7.5 and my ultimate goal is to get ready to upgrade to GP8.0. However right now upgrades are very tedious and below is the whole story. All the users/clients are identical! Let me describe what we have done in the past to upgrade and what I want in the future. In the past we sat down at each client machine performed the install. Then we logged in as an administrator (Ethoseries required this I think) so the product can finish loading what it needs. Again we do both steps on every client. In the future what I would like to do is in...

MRMS 2.0
Hi Mates, I am using MRMS 2.0 and my log files size is multiplying very fast. Tried doing the database shrinking and making the recovery mode to simple. Still the log files size is mulitplying. Is there any fix for this from microsoft. Thanks in Advance RK 1) With both the original .MDF and .LDF files located where they supposed to be, run RMS Admin and select the database you want to shrink. 2) Issue this query to find the log device name: SELECT FILE_NAME(2). This will return the name of your log device (in our case, we called the database SS1 and the log device name is Store1...

Fabrication and GP
I need to know how to process a transaction in GP. We are a sales - distribution center. We do some light fabrication. We need to find a way in GP to take one part or more parts, do fabrication work with them, then put them back into the system as a new part. For example, we take drum rollers and send them to a local fabricator who drills holes in them, inserts "brushes", then sends them back to us as a brush roller. They charge us for labor and the additional material and we have a new part. Currently, we either treat it as a parts sale / purchase. That part is clean, but a...

Payroll GP 10.0
Got this from a client and not sure what they are doing, but never heard of this any help would be great. As I am reviewing the Payroll Deduction Journal from the payroll I just ran yesterday, I have identified 5 employees whose deductions & benefits did not calculate. I happen to be one of the 5. There is $$$$$ that did not come off my pay as deductions; including my 401K. The common denominator seems to be when employee changes are made, deductions & benefits are made inactive; even though those benefits & deductions have no part in the changes being made. Pardon me, ...

Vlookup returns "0"
I am using the following formula =VLOOKUP($A$1,'Data Sheet'!$A$11:$BH$15,3,FALSE and it is returning a zero if there is no data found in that cell. If there is no data found I would like it to display nothing. How can I do this? Carolyn, There are a couple ways so do this. One is to test it, which makes for doing the VLOOKUP function twice. 1) =if(VLOOKUP($A$1,'Data Sheet'!$A$11:$BH$15,3,FALSE)=0, "" , VLOOKUP($A$1,'Data Sheet'!$A$11:$BH$15,3,FALSE)) This gets a little messy. Better yet, and simpler is to hide the original cell (column, whatever), an...

GP 9 Upgrade and SQL Server 2000 sp4
per microsoft's documentation sql server sp4 must be installed before upgrading to GP 9. does anyone know if the sql server sp 4 install is necessary for the GP 9 upgrade? microsoft's documentation indicated that all service packs for GP 8 must be installed before upgrading to GP 9, but after speaking with support, they said the GP 8 service packs aren't necessary. bottom line: i'd like to avoid the sql sp4 install if necessary as i had to rebuild my test server after installing sp4 last week. thank you. Since the database requirements for GP 9.0 list SQL 2000 SP 4 a...

MS CRM integration to GP
Hello Can any one update me wheather the mutiple company databases can be integrated to MSCRM. The senario is this. a company has mutiple entities using GP 7.5 and unique sql databases,require to integrate mscrm with gp. The integration that is supplied by MS only allows you to integrate with 1 company DB. You could probably use some of the components that are provided, but you will need to develop some of the integration logic yourself to address this.

Outlook 2003 Smart Tag Integration with MSN Messenger 7.0 vs Windows Messenger
Is there a way to use MSN Messenger 7.0 with the Outlook 2003 Smart Tag integration instead of useing Windows Messenger?

Autonumber Workaround with SQL Server 2005 BE
I built a multi-user contacts application as a split Access database initially and then moved the back end to SQL Server 2005 using an ODBC connection. I implemented an AutoNumber workaround to avoid primary key collisions when users attempt to add records at the same time (probably borrowed from Allen Browne or Albert Kallal?) by setting the default value of the ContactID field = DMax("ContactID", "tblContacts") + 1 and trapping any duplicate key errors as follows: Private Sub Form_Error(DataErr As Integer, Response As Integer) On Error GoTo Err_Form_Error Resp...
