And just like that, a year has passed and we are back into the Fall season 2020, (AKA my favorite time of the year) and that also means it is RELEASE TIME!

I'm so excited to introduce our features for Microsoft Dynamics GP Fall 2020 release (18.3).  Many of these features are what YOU the customer has requested. 

With this release, you will discover new innovations across the Microsoft Dynamics GP platform. That means it is time to prepare for the next release of Microsoft Dynamics GP, so let's get into the detail of each feature below and have some fun!

Couple of quick highlights to get you going:
New registration keys will not be required for this release.

Due to table changes with 18.3 release for General Ledger, after applying any update, you should Reconfigure change tracking for your MR Data Mart.  This is located In the Management Reporter Configuration Console, under the data mart integration, Reconfigure change tracking.

Microsoft Dynamics GP is on Modern Lifecycle
(starting with 18.2 release)

If you are on a version of 18.XX (the 18 branch), you can install this update with just an .msp install no need for DVD, see service pack page below.
The Microsoft Dynamics GP Template issue with the Office update is FIXED!


I encourage you to check out the Microsoft Dynamics GP Directory where you will find a wealth of information and links that are useful to you by version and learning by module.

    I've been testing this as well and get a "Select a valid file format" error. I've tried using qbo and qfx files from our credit card vendor - no luck.

    Has anyone been successful in importing the credit card transactions using the the new Import Payables Invoices? I have it all setup and keep getting 'select a valid file format.', yet my format is .qbo. Thanks
