The Top 7 Microsoft Dynamics GP Reporting Options and When to Use Them
Microsoft Dynamics GP is a comprehensive accounting/ERP solution designed to help you streamline and unify all parts of your business while providing you with enhanced visibility into your company’s financial data.

Solution to SharePoint 2013 Issue: Content Search Web Part Does Not Retain Properties When Creating a Site From a Custom Template
The Scenario Our goal was to have a reusable site template that could be used to provision a SharePoint site with pre-existing web parts via a workflow. We started by creating a team site, adding various web parts, libraries and custom metadata. We finished by creating a home page with a Content Search web part that would show the ten most recent documents across all libraries in the current site. We then saved this site as a template. Next, we instructed the workflow to create a new subsite using this template whenever an item was added to a list at the root site. But after populating documents on the subsite, we found that our web part was not showing document images properly. The issue can be seen in the image below. Problem & Analysis The SharePoint Content Search web part does not retain all of its properties when a site […]
Business Process Flows in Dynamics CRM 2013: Hiding/Showing a Section Based on the Current Stage
Business processes in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 are great out-of-the-box, but there are also a few things that we can do in terms of extending the functionality of the stages with some customizations. In this blog I'll show how to conditionally hide/show a business process flow section based on the current stage. For example, let’s say that for some business process flows, before entering information on a new lead you want to validate that this lead does not already exist in CRM as an account or contact: To drive home this point to your end users, on the lead form, you will not show ANY sections unless this stage has been addressed. Therefore, if you are in the “INITIAL” stage as shown above, then nothing should be visible on the lead form until you progress to the next stage (in my example the stage name is GATHER). Here is how […]
Using Out-of-the-Box Field Level Security to Apply Security to Business Process Flows in Dynamics CRM 2013
Business processes in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 are great out-of-the-box, but there are also a few things that we can do in terms of extending the functionality of the stages with some customizations. In this blog I'll show how to use out-of-the-box field level security to apply security to business process flows in CRM 2013. Hiding and showing a section is a good way to limit your end users to be working with only the fields that they need access to, but we can apply out–of-the-box field level security to business process flows as well. Let’s say you wanted to add a Boolean field called something like Progress to the first step, and only certain users could be allowed to change the value of Progress from No to Yes. What you would do is: 1. Create a new Boolean field that is enabled for field level security: 2. Create a […]
