Hello,
I have a customer that is upgrading to GP 2018 R2, and they would like to put it on a SQL 2019 instance. I do not see it as supported in the system requirements document on Partner Source. Do you have an ETA on when it will be tested, and listed as compatible?

My vote is to call it GP 2020. That would look much better than GP 2018 R3. Having it based on a previous year makes it look old. We need to be forward looking.
You don't want them to do this for a few reasons...
I do understand why some would want to move to the newest and minimize costs in the future.
The main NEW features in SQL 2019 are cool and exciting, but from a Dynamics GP perspective have NO affect.
Moving to SQL2017, I would highly recommend.
It has many new features you could take advantage of outside of the Dynamics GP program, but again, Dynamics GP and thus the 3rd party products still need to make the product work with the lowest denominator, which is SQL2014.
Thus, the newest SQL features that would be built-in to Dynamics GP 2018R2 are the newest features that are in SQL2014.
I hope this helps and gives you the information to pass to your customer....
Update:
The plan is to look at having Dynamics GP 2018 R3, due out this fall, to be compatible with both Windows Server 2019 and SQL Server 2019.
Right now there isn't any guarantee on this, but that is the current plan.
Thanks
There's not an ETA of when SQL 2019 will be tested with Dynamics GP 2018 R2.
If and when it is, it will show in the System Requirements page for GP 2018/R2. Until then, it hasn't been tested and thus not supported.
Thanks
