When I try to install Business Portal for GP 2013, the process fails. I am posting some of the error messages below.
I set up the Business Data Connectivity Service Application and it is started. I called It BDC. Am I supposed to create an External Content Type? I assumed the Business Portal install would create this. I can't find any documentation from Great Plains regarding the Business Data Connectivity Service and exactly what needs to be set up for the Business Portal Install.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
