Payable Transaction Entry > Distribution

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Glenn Beard 10

Hello,

My question is about the Payable Transaction Entry > Distribution screen in Great Plains Dynamics GP.  Is there a way to make it that the general ledger coding description lines stays open when entering invoices?  Currently I am clicking on the dropdown arrow to show the account coding description line.  Each time I go into the Distribution screen I need to select the drop down arrow.  Is there a way to make it that this screen defaults this way for me?

Below is an image with the "blinds" currently closed and I am unable to see the account description.

Below is an image with the "blinds" open and I am able to see the account description after I have selected the down arrow.

    I found where the enhancement happened.  It is back in GP 2016 R2.

    There is no "setup" to make this happen; GP remembers the way the window was last displayed for the user.  Do you possibly have an enhancement/add-in/customization that may be making this behave differently than core GP?  Are you in a shared environment (for example, remote desktop or WVD) that could impact it?

    Thank you for your reply.  We are on the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 verson, build 3201.  Were can I go to make it that the "blinds" are always open when entering invoices and coding in the "Distribution" screen.  Currently I have to click on the dropdown arrow in order to see the account code description.

    Thank you

    Are you sure you are on GP 2018?  I confirmed the Payables Transaction Entry Distribution window opens in "Show" view in my GP 18.3 test environment and it seems like it was several releases ago when Microsoft added the expanded default view to the popular distribution windows (like Payables and General Entry).  I couldn't find the exact version/windows for the enhancement in my notes.
