Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 Users like changer functionality/ability, who wants to be stuck with old code names, so we added DEPARTMENTS!!

Hello again and Happy Holidays!  We have some great new features with Payroll in Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018.  This is the third one I am blogging about this week.  We now have the option to change Department codes in HR and Payroll!

Change Department code in Human Resource and Payroll 
In Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018, users will now be able to select Department Code to modify in addition to Pay, Benefit and Deduction.  To open the Payroll Code Modifier window: Under HR & Payroll, point to Utilities, under Payroll select Payroll Code Modifier. This will open the Payroll Code Modifier window. 

The Payroll Code Modifier now has a fourth option under Code Type to change the Payroll Department Code.  Make sure there are no users in the company database before proceeding to click Update after making the desired change to the Department Code.  Any tables referencing the old code will now have the new code.
