Use Python Code to fill dynamics GP fields

Posted on by 5

Hi, 

I'm wondering if there is any way to automate the filling of particular fields in dynamic's GP by running some program/script. It Doesn't need to be python, though it would be preferable.

Thanks in advance,

    Hi Zak

    Your options are Dexterity ,VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), or Visual Studio Tools.

    Or if you want a simpler solution, GP Power Tools - Developer Tools module and do this easily.

    Automatically filling fields sounds a job of macro.

    Either recorded macro or Dynamic macro written by dexterity code.

    By default, Dynamics GP works with VBA code and C# integrations.

    I would recommend looking at VBA for Dynamics GP and Visual Studio Tools for Dynamics GP, which would be primarily where these languages would be used to integrate data into Dynamics GP.

    Let us know if you have any questions.

    Thank you.
