Prevent Users from changing User Date
Some companies have a need to disable the ability to change the User Date in GP. Out of the box, there isn't a great way to handle this requirement but Ian Grieve, over at Azurecurve in the UK, has a simple, yet elegant solution for this. Check out Ian's blog post here - User Date.

SmartList Divider Splitter Control
If you're like me and have been frustrated to no end over the years because you couldn't drag the divider in SmartList to allow more space in the results pane, our frustration is near its end. I test drove this Splitter Control by David Musgrave a few months ago before it was approved for release and it works like a charm. Fellow MVP Mariano Gomez elaborates on his blog - SmartList Splitter Control.
Go forth and enjoy and send a hearty thanks to Mr. Musgrave!

Transaction Prefixes in Cost Adjustment Batch
Wonder what the prefixes mean in Cost Adjustment batches? Well, wonder no more! The following is a list of the prefixes you would see
in the Reference field of a transaction in a cost adjustment (GLTRX) batch and
a description of why that prefix would be used. The Reference field can be
found in the Transaction Entry, Detail Inquiry, and Journal Entry Inquiry
windows.
a. BOM – This comes from a Bill of Materials transaction. For example if a BOM Assembly transaction consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a POP purchase price variance (PPV) or an average cost ripple, you would see this reference.
b. INV – This comes from an Invoice transaction created from the Invoicing module. For example if an Invoice transaction (in Invoicing) consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a Purchase Order Processing PPV or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
c. IVT – This comes from an Inventory Transfer Transaction. For example if an item was consumed via the Item Transfer and the costs were later changed due to a PPV or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
d. IVA – This comes from an Inventory Adjustment transaction. For example if a decrease Inventory Adjustment transaction consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a PPV on an invoice match or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
e. IVV – This comes from an Inventory Variance transaction. For example if a decrease Inventory Variance transaction consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a PPV on an invoice match or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
f. SALES – This comes from a Sales Order Processing Invoice transaction. For example if a Sales Invoice consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a PPV on an invoice match or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
g. PRTN – This comes from a Purchase Order Processing return transaction where doing the return changes the cost of the item.
h. MCTE – This comes from a Manufacturing Component Transaction. For example if an item was issued (consumed) in the Component Transaction Entry window and the cost was later changed due to a PPV or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
i. MRCT – This comes from a Manufacturing Receipt Transaction. For example if an item was backflushed and consumed in the Manufacturing Receipt Entry window and the cost was later changed due to a PPV or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
j. MCLS –This comes from Closing a Manufacturing order via the Close process or during a Quick MO (quick MOs are automatically closed). For example if a user closes an MO and there are items that are set to backflush (consumed) and the cost was later changed due to a PPV or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.
k. STCK – This comes from Item Stock Count Variance transaction. For example if a Stock count adjustment consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a PPV or an average cost ripple, you would see this reference.
l. FSSC – This comes from selling a Part on a Service Call. For example, an Item was Received into Inventory at one cost and the cost was later changed due to an Invoice Match you would see this reference.
m. FSRMA – This comes from an RMA. For example, you have a quantity of an item at one cost. You create a Credit RMA and receive the item in. You then Scrap the item ( which removes the one already in your inventory ) and later the cost of that item changed due to an Invoice Match you would see this reference.
n. FSRTV – This comes from an RTV. For example, you create a Credit RTV. You Ship an item at one cost and the cost was later changed due to an Invoice Match you would see this reference.
o. FSWO – This comes from using a Part on a Depot Work Order. For example, you create a WO and Use an item from the Parts Information window at one cost and the cost was later changed due to an Invoice Match you would see this reference.
p. PA – This comes from a Project Accounting transaction. For example if a PA Inventory Transfer consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a PPV on an invoice match or an average cost ripple, you would see this reference.
q. POP –- This comes from a Purchase Order Processing shipment receipt. For example if an item was consumed through an override in any module and later the shipment was brought in at a different cost than it was when it was consumed (overrode), you would see this reference
r. RECON – You would see this reference if the outflow being revalued was created by the Inventory Reconcile Utility. One reason IV Reconcile would need to create an outflow record is if there are not enough quantities in the IV10201 to support the quantity sold in the IV10200.
s. CONV – You would see this reference if the outflow being revalued was created by the upgrade. The upgrade from an older version of Microsoft Dynamics GP to 9, 10 or GP2010 may need to create an outflow if a receipt record was partially sold at the time of the conversion.
t. PRCT- You would see this reference if the item was overridden on an In-Transit Transfer transaction and then later brought in at a different cost.
a. BOM – This comes from a Bill of Materials transaction. For example if a BOM Assembly transaction consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a POP purchase price variance (PPV) or an average cost ripple, you would see this reference.
b. INV – This comes from an Invoice transaction created from the Invoicing module. For example if an Invoice transaction (in Invoicing) consumed an item from inventory and the cost was later changed due to a Purchase Order Processing PPV or an average cost ripple you would see this reference.

Revenue/Expense Codes in Job Costing
A question came up in my 'Using Job Costing as Project Accounting Lite' presentation at GPUG Summit regarding how to determine what bucket in Job Costing a particular Revenue or Expense transaction appears. Here's the answer:
Manufacturing>>Job Costing>>Transaction List
1. Enter your new or existing Job Transaction List
2. Select the Trx Source
3. Select the Transactions that you want to assign to specific Revenue/Expense Codes
4. Choose whether to have the transaction Auto Applied to the job when the transaction is selected for the job.
If you need more Revenue/Expense Codes, set these up in Manufacturing>>Job Costing>>Rev/Exp Codes.
Using these setups, you can determine which revenue or expense buckets in the Job Maintenance window and Job Costing reports your transactions are coded to.
Thanks Debbie Clark at Entertainment One Television in Ontario, CA for the question!

How do we add new reports to My Reports?
I had this question from a client today and thought it
may good to refresh this topic because the process is not that intuitive.
There are two methods, depending on the type of report
you want to add. We’ll look at adding a
GP report first.
The first step is to open the report window you want to
add. Select the appropriate report and
report option and click ‘Modify’. In the
Report Options window, click the ‘My Reports’ button. This adds the report to your My Reports list
on your home page.
Next, let’s look at how you add a SmartList Favorite to
your My Reports list.
In the Navigation Pane, expand the ‘Report Shortcuts’
folder. Select ‘SmartList
Favorites’.
The Navigation List for SmartList Favorites opens. Select the desired Favorite by placing a
checkmark next to it and then click the ‘Add To’ button in the middle of the
List Ribbon.
You’ve now added the Favorite to your list in My Reports.
Simple. But not
necessarily straightforward.

Field Service Business Alerts
I had a question come up during a GPUG Lunch 'n Learn session last week on Business Alerts. A user wanted to know how to set an alert using the Field Service tables. I had never tried that before and found that the Field Service tables were not available in the Business Alerts Wizard. Thank goodness for the Dynamics GP Forum and Leslie Vail.
Leslie explained that the tables must be added via Business Alerts Table Maintenance (Administration>>Utilities>>Business Alerts.) See the image below -
Select your Dictionary, Series, and Table(s), click Process and you're good to go. Now the Field Service tables are available in the BA wizard.
Thanks Leslie!

GPTip42day - Taxable Inventory Items - SOP & POP
This is a topic that bears some reminding now and then. When you set up an item in the Item Card to be Taxable for sales (or purchasing, for that matter), you must assign the 'All Details', or equivalent tax schedule to the item. Not doing so will prevent sales tax from being calculated on the item on a sales or purchase order, even though all other tax-related settings are in place.

The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine
If you've ever experienced this error when trying to view the integration logs in Integration Manager, it's because one of two shared components is missing on the workstation -
Resolution 1
Install the Report Viewer Redistributable using the link below:
Resolution 2
Install the 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components using the
link below:
Try one or both of these resolutions and it should fix the issue for you. And yes, you need to install the 2007 Office System Driver even though you have Office 2010 installed on the workstation. Integration Manager looks for the 2007 version.
Alternatively - and I like this solution better - in Integration settings, you can direct the log to save as a local text file instead of in the IM database. IMHO, viewing the log as a text file makes it easier to analyze.

GL Trial Balance in FRx
For those of us on GP2010, Reporting Services reports provides a nice GL Trial Balance that is easy to export to Excel. For the rest of us, we still have to print the Report Writer version to a text file, open it in Excel, then start the cleanup and reformatting. There is an easier way using FRx. Victoria Yudin has a great article on doing just this here - http://victoriayudin.com/2009/07/17/dynamics-gp-trial-balance-in-excel-using-frx/.
*click image to enlarge
Now, to take this one more step, if you need more of the transaction detail in your FRx GLTB, look at the additional Column Types available, such as TDESC, TJDESC, TDOC, TBAT, etc. You can build a really sweet GLTB using FRx that easily exports to Excel. That will make you and your auditors happy.
