Howdy, Y’all!

Bob McAdam

or those of you that will join us soon at Summit, on behalf of the entire GPUG® team within Dynamic Communities, I want to formally welcome you to Nashville and our 11th annual GPUG Summit. Each year we ramp up to execute our Q4 flagship event with the excitement building as each week passes, and this year is no exception. Scores of talented volunteers as well as my superb colleagues have been working hard to craft a solid, Microsoft Dynamics GP-centric event for everyone. Our event location of the amazing Gaylord Opryland Hotel & Resort only adds to the enthusiasm. We’ve corralled a record crowd once again, topping our registration totals from Tampa last year, and our lineup of sessions covers all aspects of Microsoft Dynamics GP and nearly every end User role. We’re ready to go, and we hope you’re prepared for a very busy yet enjoyable three days. To say that the GPUG community was all abuzz about Nashville the past 12 months would be an understatement. All my GPUG teammates are just as excited as well, and your time in this wonderful town will be as fun as it is productive. The GPUG planning committee has worked diligently to compile scores of sessions from the pile of ideas submitted earlier this year, and our tracks are chock-full of expert presenters speaking on the most prominent topic areas within Microsoft Dynamics GP. Our opening session on Wednesday morning will feature our friends from fabulous Fargo talking Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018, and our Thursday morning general session will celebrate this community with numerous awards and accolades. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone and congratulating the winners. Needless to say, it’s the best and most exciting job in the Microsoft Dynamics GP space, trust me. Hearty thanks go out to our numerous sponsors and presenters. Without them, GPUG Summit would not be the event it is. These folks have invested time and resources to put their best foot forward for all attendees, and I cannot thank them enough. It is a privilege to call many of them good friends to boot. Thank you. If you’re attending GPUG Summit Nashville, be sure to download the mobile app. Visit your app store or www.gpugsummit.com/app and install it right away as all edits, changes, and important messages will be updated there first. We received a ton of positive feedback last year and are taking that momentum forward with us, so please be sure you’ve finalized this quick task if you haven’t done so already and dig in today! Thanks for making GPUG Summit Nashville a priority this year. My teammates and I will work tirelessly to exceed your expectations, and we hope that each and every one of you enjoys everything this event and this city have to offer. We’re here to help at the GPUG Base Camp or in the hallways, so please don’t hesitate to ask questions. We want this to be your best GPUG Summit ever, and we are confident that it will be!

Sincerely,

Bob McAdam General Manager, GPUG

Chapter of the Year

ROCHESTER NEW YORK Chapter Leaders

Elizabeth Grant Director of Accounting Ultrafab, Inc. Jacob Kirby Accounting Manager ConServe

The Rochester, New York chapter has been selected as the

Chapter of the Quarter for the Q3 issue. This chapter of almost 30

Members is led by Jacob Kirby of ConServe and Elizabeth Grant

of Ultrafab, Inc.

“What I enjoy most about leading my chapter is the networking

with like-minded individuals,” says Jacob. “Our roundtable

discussions are usually the most interesting and valuable pieces of

the meetings, which speaks to the importance of these chapters.” Bob McAdam, general manger of GPUG®, attended the August

chapter meeting. The November meeting will be a Summit recap

where attendees can share their experiences and favorite sessions

and/or tips and tricks.

“It is so nice to be able to connect with fellow Members so close

to home that can help me find solutions to my problems,” says

Jacob.

» Tribridge’s presentation on Microsoft Dynamics GP 2015 resulted in this group’s most well-attended meeting (so far!) in 2017. » Goal for next meeting: Take a group photo!

Going to the Cloud?

Prepare Like a Pro! story by Steve Tanner, GPUG® Partner Member

o, your organization has decided to move your Microsoft Dynamics system to the cloud. Now what? Having supported many types of Microsoft Dynamics clients since the early days of hosting in 1999, the common theme I’ve seen from the most successful projects is the right level of preparation by the client. When moving to the cloud today, the options are more varied, but the basic principles are the same. For some organizations, the answer can be as simple as spinning up a new server in their existing public cloud environment. For most, there are many steps to be completed to make the move with confidence. The direction you take depends on why you’ve decided to move to the cloud in the first place. The most common reasons for moving to the cloud include: »» You have minimal to no IT staff, so you want to outsource your Microsoft Dynamics infrastructure to a trusted provider. »» You want to get out of the hardware business, and you need flexibility to expand or contract your infrastructure as needed. »» You would like to take advantage of the Microsoft Dynamics Web Client, and you want to have a more secure and reliable platform for your Users. »» Your IT staff is too busy managing key operations systems to effectively manage your finance and ERP infrastructure. »» You have multiple sites, or have added new sites, possibly in different time zones, and can’t rely on your internal resources to effectively support all sites. Each of these reasons determines a shift in certain responsibilities from in-house resources to your new cloud service provider (CSP). Here is a grid of key responsibilities and options for outsourcing. There are many items that need to be addressed to have a successful Microsoft Dynamics deployment. Just because a vendor says that they can support Microsoft Dynamics in the cloud doesn’t mean that they are providing all the services needed for your project.

Typical Microsoft Dynamics Infrastructure Responsibilities

The client working with their Microsoft Dynamics Partner handles this task in a similar way to an on-premises Microsoft Dynamics deployment. * In some cases, the Microsoft Dynamics Partner may also be the managed cloud provider, so these tasks may be bundled with their services. Cloud service providers (CSPs) take primary responsibility for this section and may include details in their SLA. Client is primarily responsible for this decision or task.

As you evaluate which responsibilities you want to hand off and which ones you are willing to keep, you will be able to evaluate which CSPs and options make sense for your transition plan. Ultimately, you will want to verify that your CSP is doing what you expect of them, and that your team understands that they are handling what is left. If you’re like many Users of Microsoft Dynamics, you’ve been relying on your traditional laptop or desktop to launch Microsoft Dynamics or connect to data on your company’s servers. Now that you’re moving to the cloud, Microsoft Dynamics can be delivered in multiple User experiences. Knowing which User experience you want to deliver to your team will help when communicating with your prospective CSPs. Q3 2017 | 17

Traditional Desktop Client

»» The look and feel of the desktop client is the same as you’ve used on your personal workstation. »» The desktop client is traditionally deployed using Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) and/or

Citrix. RDP requires that you have a secure connection to the CSP first, usually using a VPN; then you’ll be able to connect to the remote desktop. Citrix uses a small piece of software loaded on your workstation called a Citrix Connector that allows you to simultaneously connect securely and open the remote desktop. »» Tools such as Management Reporter and Integration Manager need a remote desktop to be able to function. »» Using Microsoft Office on the remote desktop requires server licenses of Office to be installed on the remote desktop server. These licenses are based on a named User requirement. The CSP can normally provide these licenses, or if you have an Office 365 E3 or ProPlus subscription, you can generally use your own licenses for this installation. »» Most Microsoft Dynamics third party solutions (ISV) are compatible with an RDP/Citrix option. ISV vendors can verify compatibility for you.

Export functions from Microsoft Dynamics and reporting tools to Microsoft Office will generally need to have Microsoft Office installed on your local workstation or device. Because this is a web-based User experience, there is the possibility of integration with Office 365 Online. Your Office 365 subscription for this client experience will be determined by whether you need online and/ or desktop installations of Office.

Microsoft Dynamics Web Client

»» The Web Client is a web-based view of Microsoft Dynamics. The look and feel is different from the

desktop client, but the ability to connect using a tablet, phone, or traditional desktop makes this a convenient option for a broad range of Users. »» The Web Client relies on a web server as part of the infrastructure and secure SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connections. A Microsoft Dynamics-focused CSP will understand these requirements and can address them with you. »» Export functions from Microsoft Dynamics and reporting tools to Microsoft Office will generally need to have Microsoft Office installed on your local workstation or device. Because this is a webbased User experience, there is the possibility of integration with Office 365 Online. Your Office 365 subscription for this client experience will be determined by whether you need online and/or desktop installations of Office. »» ISVs are not universally compatible with the Microsoft Dynamics Web Client. Please check with them to verify compatibility.

Remote Connection to Your Data through a Secure VPN

»» There are many scenarios where connecting to your Microsoft Dynamics data is needed. You may have

custom reporting systems, or other applications that read from or write to your Microsoft Dynamics data.

»» The important focus here is to ask about how to secure the connection between your Users and the data

center where your Microsoft Dynamics data is stored. This is most commonly secured using a VPN (virtual private network). A VPN can be a piece of software loaded on your Users’ workstations, or a more permanent site-to-site VPN connection between your office(s) network and the CSP’s data center. »» Some CSPs charge extra for this service and others bundle it in as an included feature of their package. There are many reputable full-service Microsoft Dynamics hosting providers in the Microsoft Dynamics UG community that understand all of these issues and can speak to them with you and your Microsoft Dynamics Partner. The PCI Security Standard Council1 has a simple framework that outlines a process to help with your selection of a CSP. I’ve applied it to the topic of selecting a Microsoft Dynamics CSP. »» UNDERSTAND your requirements first. • Work with your Microsoft Dynamics Partner to develop a list of priorities that define your requirements. • Reach out to the UG community to get their input on what they’ve learned in their move to the cloud. »» CHOOSE a deployment model that aligns with your needs. »» EVALUATE different service options. »» KNOW what you want from your CSP. »» COMPARE providers and service offerings. • Is pricing based on consumption, flat rate, or per User? • How does pricing change if Users or additional servers are added? • How long are the agreements, and what is the process to change or exit? • Is Microsoft Dynamics subscription licensing available to be included, or do you bring your own license? »» ASK questions of the CSP and verify their responses. For example: • What does each service consist of exactly, and how is the service delivered? • What does the service provide with respect to security, system maintenance, disaster recovery, and what is the client responsible for? • How will the CSP provide ongoing evidence that security controls and system maintenance routines continue to be in place and are kept up to date? • What will the CSP commit to in writing? • Are other parties involved in the service delivery, security, or support? »» DOCUMENT everything with your provider in written agreements, for example, SLAs/terms of service contracts, etc. »» REQUEST written assurances that security controls will be in place and maintained. »» REVIEW the service and written agreements periodically to identify if anything has changed. By following these steps, you will have a mutually agreed upon cloud solution matching your requirements and expectations. Moving to the cloud is becoming a more common option for Microsoft Dynamics Customers across all industries. You’re in good company and can reach out to your UG community for feedback and recommendations. GPUG Steve Tanner is Partner account manager at Data Resolution. He can be reached at Steve.tanner@ dataresolution.net or 949-485-5677. He will present at GPUG Summit and will drill-down into this topic.

Microsoft Showcase

Errol Schoenfish director of product marketing rrol Schoenfish recently celebrated his 30th anniversary with Microsoft; he joined Great Plains Software in 1987. (He started when he was 8.) To celebrate that longevity, GPUG® sat down with Errol for a trip down memory lane as well as a look at the future as Errol sees it.

GPUG: Tell me about your first day at Great Plains Software. Errol Schoenfish (ES): I started in product support as part of a new hire class of 11 people on June 15, 1988. In that class, I met my wife, Cheri, along with two other guys who are my best friends: Tom Eide (who was my best man) and Mitch Ruud (who was one of our ushers). There are many lasting relationships that started with those 11 people. We learned software for the first six weeks, which was fun for a freshly-out-of-college kid. It was like going to college but getting paid for it.

GPUG: Were you all training for the same role? ES: Yes, we trained for core financials and then groups of us had focus areas. Some of us learned payroll, and others learned more of the inventory kinds of solutions. People naturally found their focus areas. When we started on the phones, we had Customer and Partner teams, so you would primarily take calls from one or the other. I was on the Partner team, and when events like Stampede (the Great Plains Partner conference) happened, it was like meeting a pen pal that you’d been writing to for years. Meeting them in person was a highlight. People don’t call support without a reason;

20 | GPUG Magazine there’s always a situation and opportunity behind it, so a number of us started doing training classes, which was a great way to meet those Customers and Partners face to face instead of over the phone.

GPUG: That’s a great start to a career. When did you transition out of support? ES: I took an about-face and went into our development org, focused on quality assurance. Because of my knowledge of how Customers tried to use the software, I was pretty good at breaking it prior to us shipping it. It was all about making sure the software was of the highest quality before we shipped it. Then I did my three-and-a-half-year hiatus, selling and implementing the product with a Partner organization in Fargo, ND. I had such respect for what Partners did, and it was a great experience to put myself in their shoes and see what they went through. I sold one of the first – what was originally called Dynamics solutions – when I started. It was Great Plains Accounting Series on DOS at that time, and I sold one of the first Windows Dynamics solutions.

GPUG: What made you come back to Great Plains? ES: I came back as a Partner account manager because of Dave Knorr, who was and has been a mentor for many years. One of the lines I remember while he was interviewing me is that he asked what I wanted to do in five years, and I told him I didn’t want to know. He said, “Well, guess what. At Great Plains, the job you’ll do in five years hasn’t been invented yet.”

That stuck with me. When I think about everything that has happened in the last 30 years, that’s definitely true. I had the opportunity to move to Australia with Cheri – also from Dave – and she was instrumental in our ability to get acquired by Microsoft and take all the APAC offices and move them into Microsoft, both physically and in systems and processes, and I did the same for our sales and marketing organizations. When we were in Australia, Great Plains Software got acquired and so did Navision, so we did the same thing again. One of the lasting things from that time is that I have relationships with Partners from our time in Australia, and I continually search them out to have a beer while at events. After spending two years in Australia, we came back to Fargo, and I held various roles in product marketing, including being on the original CRM team in 2003. GPUG: Those are great stories. Looking back, where do you think the biggest learning curve was over the years? ES: Can I say it’s yet to come? GPUG: Of course. Do you think that is going to freak people out? ES: I think it’s freaking people out now. As it relates to Partners specifically, this is a different opportunity as Customers are acting differently in how they purchase software. It used to be that the Partner would enter into a sales cycle knowing that they knew more than the Customer. Customers are now entering the sales cycle at an estimated 65 to 70 percent decided, so the relationship has flipped. And then there are the physical capabilities. When I was working for that Partner org, it used to take me a day to physically put a disk in the computer and then replace that disk…48 times. It now takes me three minutes to deploy a Dynamics 365 instance, and it’s already pre-configured to allow me to do things. When you think about things that artificial intelligence will be able to do in the near future, we’re on the cusp of something pretty amazing.

GPUG: How do you think Customers and Partners should embrace that change? ES: The thought process around how Partners will help Customers will drastically change over the next two to four years, and they need to think about their own Customers and how they can serve them. For both Partners’ and Customers’ innovations, we’re soon going to be at a point where a bot can be programmed to answer questions online for somebody interacting with it. Businesses will succeed when they take a specific use case scenario and drive change based on that. Don’t get consumed by everything available. Pick one or two scenarios, solve for that, and move on. There are so many things you can do, but don’t get scared and do nothing. I often use the analogy of trying to run a marathon. You can’t go from doing nothing for five years to running a marathon the next day. You create a plan and then start executing that plan. Doing nothing and then expecting results isn’t the right plan. GPUG: Great analogy. Is there anything else you’d like to share with readers? ES: One of the things that continually amazes me is the community that has been built around a set of products. When I talked about how fun it was to meet people in person after talking to them on the phone, it amazes me to see that still happening when people go to events now. I hope people appreciate the overall community that’s been built, appreciate that something that started as a product focus turned into something different. When I attend events, that’s what I’m excited about. I’ve talked about my dog, Katie, and how she’s helped me train for marathons. I’ve told Customers that somebody from their organization has to be Katie the Dog if they want to create change. Problems don’t get solved on their own. If you’re not up every morning, wagging your tail and asking for a run, nothing will be done. I’ve had Customers come up to me and say, “I’m Katie the Dog”. It’s fun for me to see them get excited and be the one that made something happen for their company. As I mentioned before, that opportunity to make something happen is getting larger and larger. The big curve is still to come. GPUG

TIPS & TRICKS

Tips for Creating Meaningful Visuals in Microsoft Power BI by Belinda Allen, Partner Member

he more we learn about Microsoft Power BI, the more we want to build reports that help us run our businesses better. We want reports that point out what needs our focus and attention to improve our success, AND we want to know where we can capitalize on what is working right for us. Selecting the right visual and formatting (the visual) are essential for improving the value of any dashboard/report. Let’s review how we can make a few visuals more meaningful and eye-catching; not just to make them prettier, but to make them easier to read and more powerful.

Avoid the Pie I’m not saying this as part of my perpetual diet plan. Pie charts may look cool, but it’s very hard to get a good visual. In the following two images, I put a red square around the same three pieces of data. The pie makes it difficult to tell which of the three is the largest and which is the smallest. The clustered column chart next to it makes it much easier.

By default, the clustered column chart will appear with all green columns. To edit the colors, select the clustered column chart visual and open formatting on the Visualizations pane. Open the Data Colors area, and change Show all to On. Change each individual color to whatever you want them to be.

22 | GPUG Magazine

Take a Card Sometimes the best visual is simply a number. Often while presenting, I talk about the feature that newer vehicles have that show you the number of miles you can travel with your current amount of gas, at your current rate of consumption. I love seeing that I can travel 71 miles rather than thinking, “I have two bars left, an 11.9-gallon tank, and I usually get 42 miles a gallon.” I have a Hybrid, which means I get great gas mileage, but I still cannot do that kind of math in my head while driving! So, show me a single number. FYI: This type of visual can be seen in Power BI on the Apple Watch. I can literally see my bank balance

every morning on my watch! When the card visual is selected, the default is for the number to round automatically, as you see above. However, when I am looking at something like my customer balance, I want to see the actual, unrounded amount. To display the amount with no rounding, select the visual and open formatting on the Visualizations pane. Open the Data Label area and change Display from Auto to None.

Under One Condition If you are like me, you love playing with conditional formatting in Microsoft Excel. Power BI has conditional formatting as well. Below is a simple table in the Power BI Desktop. This visual shows my customer list and the balance of each customer. I use conditional formatting to help see the higher balances in green, the lowest in red, and everything in the middle as yellow, with shade variations of these colors for the amounts in-between. How did I do this?

Where in the World? To set conditional formatting, select the visual and click on the drop-down arrow for the amount field for which you want to apply conditional formatting; select Conditional formatting.

In the Conditional formatting window that opens, select the color for the Lowest value and the Highest value. If you want a middle color, select the Diverging box and select the Middle value. Click OK.

When using the map visual, you can use data that is either a full or partial address, or you can use longitude and latitude. Obviously, longitude and latitude will provide the most accurate map plotting, but the address works well, too. It is, however, a good idea to define which part of the geographical data a field represents. This can be done with data modeling right in the Power BI Desktop. Open the data view by clicking on the data icon on the pane on the far-left side of the Power BI Desktop. If you have more than one data source, select the source with the geographical fields on the right so that the data set appears on the canvas in the middle. In my case, I’ll define the street address, city, state, zip code, and country. I’ll start with the street address by clicking on the field, highlighting the entire column. I’ll click on the Modeling tab, select Data Category, and choose the field Address. I’ll repeat these steps for city, state, zip code, and country. Q3 2017 | 23

Summary This article outlines a few minor tweaks to help make your visuals better. Better visuals, that are easier to read, mean better information. And better information means more success for you! Consider joining the Microsoft Power BI User Group to increase the value you currently receive from your membership. Visit www.pbiusergroup.com to sign up for free! GPUG Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll notice that all my geography fields now have a globe next to the field in the field list, indicating that they have been categorized as a geographical field, making them much more accurate on map visuals.

Here’s how it works: »» You can initiate an @mention by typing “@”, and then start typing the name of the participant who should be @mentioned. »» As you start typing, you’ll see a list of suggested people to choose from. »» Select the person you’d like to @mention in the list of suggestions by clicking his/her name. • The @mention will become a hyperlink to the @mentioned individual’s community profile and the @mentioned person will receive a real-time email notification.

Another great use for this when responding to a discussion post is to @mention the person who asked the original question. By @mentioning the asker in your response, they’ll receive an email notification letting them know that they’ve been @mentioned, prompting them to check out your response to their question.

A couple notes If the @mentioned person no longer wants to be included in the @mention, the individual can remove the reference to their profile by hovering over the @mention and clicking Remove Reference.

Why is this so cool? Say, for example, that I’m reading a thread and think that @Bob McAdam, GPUG general manager, would have some insight he could share about the topic. I could @mention Bob in a discussion reply, and he would receive an email notification that he was mentioned in my discussion post, prompting him to view and participate in the thread.

@mention functionality is currently compatible with Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and the mobile view of the website. In the future, we plan on making it compatible with Internet Explorer 11. Now…who’s excited about this new feature? I know I am! GPUG

ooster Motor Ways, Inc. is a Midwest regional dry van truckload carrier based out of Ohio. Wooster also hauls frac sand in dry bulk trailers for the oil and gas industry. In addition to dispatching trucks, tractors, and trailers around the region and getting products from A to Z, Wooster has a freight brokerage company, WMW Logistics, Inc., as well as two full-service maintenance shops. David Hochstetler is the chief financial officer and has worked with Wooster for more than 20 years. Before implementing Microsoft Dynamics GP three years ago, Wooster ran on Platinum for Windows and TMW Suite, by TMW Systems, which is an operations software for the trucking industry. Once the end-of-life notice was given for Platinum, Wooster decided to make the switch to Microsoft Dynamics GP. “I basically worked in Microsoft FRx and had to switch to Management Reporter, which was a very easy transition for me to make,” David says. “The Microsoft Dynamics GP implementation itself wasn’t all that easy.” The main issue during implementation was importing data. Wooster and their Partner, TMW, burned up a lot of time to get the data all sorted out, and the implementer was already scheduled to be at other clients going live, so he couldn’t stay longer. If David could do it again, he would have their Partner block off more time for implementation as well as support during go-live. That said, Wooster went live in November 2014, and three weeks later, David attended his first GPUG® chapter meeting in Columbus.

“We were frustrated and up to our eyeballs in catching up,” David shares. Columbus is about 90 minutes away, and he wondered whether using an entire day to attend a meeting was worth it. Afterward, he and his colleague were thankful they attended. “It was almost like group therapy for us, with other Users talking us through it all,” David explains. After a full day of networking and sharing their issues with Users who were willing to help and give ideas, David and his colleague agreed that attending was well worth it. Today, David is the primary User of Management Reporter and uses Microsoft Dynamics GP daily to run SmartLists, pull aging reports, and make general ledger and master posting entries. While their setup of Microsoft Dynamics GP is quite basic without too many customizations, integral to Wooster’s success is the custom interface to their trucking operations software, TMW Suite. TMW Suite is the software used for tracking their trucks, freight, driver information, and all-around logistics. “Rather than using Integration Manager, this connection is behind the scenes in SQL, bringing all our settlement and invoicing details from TMW Suite into Microsoft Dynamics GP,” David explains. Wooster also has two locations with full-service maintenance shops for their own fleet as well as outside customer work. For that part of the business, they use TMW Fleet Maintenance (aka Transman) asset maintenance software, which integrates with Microsoft Dynamics GP using Integration Manager.

“Integration Manager currently brings in all the billing from the shop software, and we are working toward tying in inventory and purchase orders for that side of the business,” David says. With cost in mind, Wooster has stayed close to out of the box with Microsoft Dynamics GP. Custom interfaces to their industry software have been the biggest “custom” work, and they also recently implemented Greenshades for 1099 reporting along with the Collections Management module within Microsoft Dynamics GP. Major aids in helping David stay clear of customizations are GPUG chapter meetings and GPUG Summit. They also save him a ton of time. For example, David was running drill-down viewer in FRx to show payables, expenses, etc. In Management Reporter, while it pulls up transactions, it doesn’t have the detail David was used to seeing. He brought this challenge up at a chapter meeting, and another User showed him how to “add a column” and “add attributes” to pull up transaction details like vendor name, reference, and job details. “For employees that don’t have a Microsoft Dynamics GP signon in the maintenance shop, they couldn’t see the details to explain expenses without me having to run a SmartList,” David explains.

“Now, I just add columns and attributes that provide a full drill-down for everyone at Wooster, regardless if they have Microsoft Dynamics GP access or not. I don’t know how I would have learned that very simple, yet critical, tip if it wasn’t for that helpful User.” Last September before GPUG Summit in Tampa, David was asked to be a chapter leader. He quickly stepped up and is now the co-leader of the Columbus GPUG chapter with Melanie Knight. “The local chapter has been and continues to be such a great help to us. I am by no means an expert, but I want to help others, especially those that are new, just like we once were,” David shares. Nashville will be David’s third time attending GPUG Summit, and he looks forward to attending with his colleague, Jeannie Wilson, director of administration at Wooster. “Summit is definitely not one of those conferences that’s a glorified vacation from work. You go and learn the nuts and bolts of the solution while meeting with like-minded peers and making valuable connections,” David concludes. “I still feel like we’ve only scratched the surface of Microsoft Dynamics GP, and Summit allows us to dig even deeper into what it can do for our company.” GPUG

SECURITY

story by Matthew Arp, GPUG® User Member

here is probably a section of Microsoft Dynamics GP that you hate going into; the mere thought of making changes brings cold sweats and a racing heart…Security. I’m purely guessing, of course. I mean, what other reason could there be to account for the persistent, “Don’t touch it; it’s not broken” attitude that is prevalent across so much of Microsoft Dynamics GP’s Customers? Well, it’s pretty common that Users will be very vocal in complaining when they can’t get into a window or run a report they think they need, but they are usually a lot less vocal about times they think they shouldn’t have access to that same window or report.

Basics

First off, some quick details on the concepts behind Microsoft Dynamics GP Security. A User is set up in Microsoft Dynamics GP, and that User can be given access to one, none, or all your companies. For each company you give a User access to, you can add him/her to some roles. A User can have completely different roles for each company. These roles are what give a User permission to do things in Microsoft Dynamics GP. All this information is stored in the DYNAMICS database (or whatever your system database is named). Simple, right?

TIP: Stop logging in with the SA (system administrator) account; grant your User ID the sysadmin privilege in SSMS. This will allow you to completely manage Microsoft Dynamics GP without ever having to login as SA. While some people say this is dangerous, it really isn’t. You can only use your User ID while logged in through Microsoft Dynamics GP, so you can only do the things the solution will allow you to do. I’m not recommending all Users, just the people that are having to login as SA on a regular basis.

Access (Administration > Setup > System > User Access Setup) One of the first things that a User will notice is when they don’t have access to a Microsoft Dynamics GP Company that they were expecting to get into. While controlling access to companies is probably the easiest part of managing Security, there are some things that you should consider and be aware of before simply moving on. When a User is given access to a company database, Microsoft Dynamics GP goes out to SQL and adds that User to the database you selected. Why should you care? You can run into issues when you have a test company. Most Customers will have a test company; if not, stop reading and create a test company. The test company is probably refreshed at some point in time on a regular basis. Well, if you have some Users who have been bad or are being trained, and you only give them access to your test companies after a refresh of the test company, you will notice that they can’t login to the test company, and you get an error when you try to remove and re-add them to the test company. The issue is with how SQL stores its User information. When you refresh your test company, all the Users assigned to that database are an exact copy of what is on your production database. If that User didn’t have access to the production database, but they have access to the test database, after the refresh, Microsoft Dynamics GP will think they should have access, but SQL will

One of the best practices that probably more companies should be taking advantage of is Activity Tracking. Activity Tracking, as the name implies, tracks Users and what they do in the system. not allow them to connect. It gets worse: When you try and remove the access to the test database, you get an error. Now we must get serious and open SSMS. Go to your test database and expand Security > Users and find, and then delete, the offending User. Now you’ll be able to go back into Microsoft Dynamics GP and give them access to the test company again. The better solution would be to simply give the User access to both the test and the production companies; then just remove all their roles for the production database. That way even after a refresh, they’ll still be able to get into the test database, and they can’t do bad things in production.

Tracking (Administration > Setup > System > Activity Tracking) One of the best practices that probably more companies should be taking advantage of is Activity Tracking. Activity Tracking, as the name implies, tracks Users and what they do in the system. This is not an audit trail; it will not tell you who specifically changed a vendor’s EFT information, but it will tell you the people who’ve saved changes to the vendor record. It can be very powerful, but there are some drawbacks. Don’t rely on it and think that you will be able to tell what everyone is doing; it can be frustratingly terse at times when describing what record is being changed, and it can be a bit of a size hog. If you start tracking all activities, be prepared for an uptick in SQL utilization. You can configure what activities you want to track and what Users/companies you want to track in. The tracking information is stored in DYNAMICS. dbo.SY05000.

Alternate/Modified Forms (Administration > Setup > System > Alternate/Modified Forms and Reports) You control what version of your alternate/modified forms and reports a User will see by assigning the particular version you’d like to use to an Alternate/Modified Forms and Reports ID. You can then assign this ID to a particular User and company under User Security (Administration > Setup > System > User Security).

Roles/Tasks (Administration > Setup > System > Security Roles / Security Tasks) One of the key things to keep in mind about Microsoft Dynamics GP Security is that it is based on a pessimistic view. Essentially, you have no rights to anything unless they are specifically granted to you. The current security architecture is a role-based system. So, a User is given one or more roles, and those roles have certain tasks that are assigned to them. These tasks are what say, “You have access to this Window”. One of the more complicated parts of Security is trying to find out what particular Task/Role will give a User access to a particular window. Your best bet is usually to take your time and familiarize yourself with some of the naming conventions of Tasks. »» ADMIN_Module_Resource – Administrative tasks related to a module, usually the Setup, Routines, and Utility windows, can be found here. e.g. ADMIN_INV_005* allows a User to reconcile inventory. »» CARD_Sequence – These are a bit tricky; they are usually the “cards” like the Customer card or the item card. There isn’t really an easy way to search through other than looking through the task names. e.g. CARD_0501* allows a User to maintain employees (Employee Card).

Any time you do an upgrade, any customizations you do to these built-in tasks and roles may be reset back to the default version that shipped with Microsoft Dynamics GP. »» INQ_Module_Resource – These

tasks will give a User access to the inquiry windows in a particular module. e.g. INQ_FIN_004* will allow a User to view GL journal entries. »» RPT_Module_Resource – These will control the reports (including posting reports) for a module. e.g. RPT_SALES_004* is the task for the Sales posting journals. »» TRX_Module_Resource – Controls entering/posting any transactions into the system. e.g. TRX_INV_005* gives permission for posting in the inventory module. You can always double-click on any of the tasks on your system, and that will take you to the Task Setup window where you can inspect exactly what a Task allows. Generally you’ll leave the product to Microsoft Dynamics GP, and the Type will be windows; then just select the series (Sales, Inventory, etc.), and the system will list out everything that the Task is granting permission to. You could make changes to these tasks, but that is generally a bad idea. Any time you do an upgrade, any customizations you do to these built-in tasks and roles may be reset back to the default version that shipped with Microsoft Dynamics GP. The better way is to create your own Tasks and Roles and then customize those. It’s easy to copy a default Task or Role into your own version, and then simply make the changes you’d like and start assigning Users to the new role. That is, of course, after you test it in your test company, right? GPUG Matthew Arp is a business systems developer at Hunton Group. He can be reached at Marp@huntongroup.com.

ESTABLISHED 1999

34 | GPUG Magazine

BECS was established in 1999 with the sole objective to deliver a total business solution for their clients. With that vision, they have since been delivering ERP to the manufacturing sector. eBECS learned early on to tailor project delivery by understanding the value from the Customer’s perspective. This morphed into their expertise in lean thinking, or lean manufacturing. eBECS understood Microsoft Dynamics AX to be very well-aligned to the core principles of lean thinking. With a few small code modifications and enhancements, they were able to create what some lean experts would describe as a lean ERP system. This allowed them to enjoy a unique presence in the market, beating out SAP because it was taking decisions away from functions and features versus lean thinking. eBECS came to the U.S. in 2005, and the lean thinking they taught resonated very succinctly because U.S. manufacturers were focused on beating out China prices and other overseas operations. When Microsoft Dynamics CRM came on the scene, eBECS was an early adopter and one of the first Partners to offer both ERP and CRM, quickly understanding the significant value in providing that total solution to a client. Most of their projects included Microsoft Dynamics AX, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, and a wraparound layer of business intelligence (BI). Private cloud was the first experience eBECS had in Azure and was driven by a client’s desire

to make that move. Their eyes were opened with the power of Azure, and eBECS created a practice around the cloud. eBECS embraced portfolio products from Microsoft and significantly invested in enabling their experts to provide that value-add to clients. Stephen Wilson, certified marketing officer at eBECS, says, “We think we are the best choice for Customers and are the most capable of diagnosing and coming back with a variety of options, depending on what that client needs.” eBECS has been named Partner of the Year several times for Microsoft Dynamics. Additionally, the company has received Country Partner of the Year and finalist awards for Microsoft Dynamics CRM and IoT, all of which are coveted recognition categories for Microsoft Dynamics Partners.

GPUG®: Because your pedigree is in manufacturing ERP, how does lean thinking and the cloud fit together for those businesses? Stephen Wilson (SW): Lean and the cloud are transformational for a manufacturer. The lean thinking is applied across everything eBECS does and offers to our clients, and that includes the cloud. Transition to the cloud is a significant event, but in the end, it is just a place. Lean is a continuous journey. Lean is the business, and that keeps changing. Manufacturers that stand still are often not going to thrive as much as those that adapt.

“It was eBECS’s own lean functionality that Microsoft had built into Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. So obviously, as the original developer, no one would know it better. Plus, as might be expected, eBECS had an extensive track record of implementing lean manufacturing within Microsoft Dynamics ERP environments.” Ben Hancock, Head of ERP at Britax (Fort Mill, South Carolina-based group)

GPUG: What are the main solutions your clients use to take on that journey? SW: Microsoft Dynamics AX and Microsoft Dynamics NAV (Finance and Operations as seen now in the Dynamics 365 world), Microsoft Dynamics CRM (which is now Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the Customer Engagement modules of Sales Automation, Customer Service, Field Service, Project Service Automation, and Marketing), Azure workloads, PowerApps, and Microsoft Flow. In a nutshell, we understand everything that Microsoft has available and whether that can and should be deployed in a business.

We have also recently become a part of DXC Technology as a strategic alliance affiliate. DXC is a global systems integrator (GSI) that was born out of the merger between CSC and HP. They’ve undergone various acquisitions over the years to include every offering under Microsoft’s umbrella like Office 365, Microsoft Dynamics ERP, and more. eBECS is now a part of that group, and it complements our objective of offering a complete solution for our clients.

GPUG: You mentioned Dynamics 365 in your offerings. How has that changed your business this past year? SW: The biggest change has been our approach and optimization on solution delivery. We now see Customers being much more involved in their continuous delivery program than ever before. Our ability to get a company to use and consume the software has significantly improved. That’s a critical change in the economics of software and being able to drive value for the Customer. The more the Customer can use the software, the better we do. If we don’t do a good job, they don’t use their technology. Simple, yet critical. There is no longer a start and stop to an implementation project. It’s much more phased-based working.

GPUG: You attended Summit EMEA in Amsterdam this past April. How was that experience for eBECS? SW: It was a very solid event, well-supported by Partners, and another great platform to start building more attendance and membership for the User groups. I met a ton of newer Customers and presented a few manufacturing-focused sessions that were all very well attended. I also attended the leadership event the day before and got a ton out of that. I had great conversations with some very large global companies. I am on the board for AXPACT, which is a global alliance of bestin-country Microsoft Dynamics AX Partners who work together on multi-country implementations. Summit EMEA was the perfect opportunity to hone those relationships and see those Partners face to face.

GPUG: What do you have coming up for Users in the next 12 months? SW: They should always look out for the knowledge we’re sharing through webinars. We are really passionate about educating Users about what’s out there. It’s that knowledge leadership that eBECS is very proud to deliver to our Customers.

GPUG: What are you looking forward to the most for Summit 2017 in Nashville? SW: Our DNA is around sharing our knowledge. We put a lot of effort into educating. That is what we’re most looking forward to. Educating and diving deep into manufacturing and analytics with Users that experience it daily. GPUG

...with GPUG Members We reached out to a few GPUG® Members to find out what they’re looking forward to most at GPUG Summit Nashville. Here’s what they had to say.

40 | GPUG Magazine

Abra Lynne Gilman Senior ERP Consultant/Project Manager Collins Computing Agilman@collinscomputing.com Well, I wanted to come to Nashville anyway so I could see the Oregon Ducks’ 2014 Heisman-winning former quarterback, Marcus Mariota, play for the Tennessee Titans football team! (Anyone who knows me, knows I’m a Ducks fan). Obviously, the location is a PLUS, but honestly, I’m looking forward to both sharing and learning from my friends in the Microsoft Dynamics GPUG Community. I’ve been in this channel for 23 years, and the relationships I’ve built through participating in conferences, remote sessions, and events while working with hundreds of Microsoft Dynamics GP Customers over the years is PRICELESS. With our Customers, I’m the evangelist who conveys to them they HAVE to experience this for themselves, because they will want to come back for more each year! The interactions with GPUG Members always consist of transfer of knowledge! Whether it is discussing the success of an upgrade, the challenge of a new implementation, or the excitement of solving an issue – GPUG Members are eager to celebrate our achievements or roll up our sleeves and tackle an issue together. Although I never have to wait for a conference to ask for assistance from fellow GPUG Members – so many are quick to answer a community post, email, or phone call at any time of day – face-to-face exchanges are my favorite way to communicate. The sessions are an obvious way to get a deep dive into a particular topic, but between sessions we always have plenty of networking time to talk about our golden nuggets (tips) we’ve learned, the new way someone has approached an issue, or our fav new addon app we came across in the Expo or in our consulting travels. So, I guess the networking time is what I look forward to most – but that does mean I’m sharing and learning about Microsoft Dynamics GP…not just talking sports!

Seeing what I can learn that can help my company perform better. Get new ideas. Meet up with friends made from past Summits. Also, being a track leader and seeing how we fulfilled the needs of those attending Summit.

I’m looking forward to joining a record number of attendees in Nashville as we all learn more about the ERP system that we all use and love. This is my second year on the planning committee, and I’m super pumped about the content that will be presented this year. Also don’t forget to pack up your boots, and y’all get ready for some honky tonkin’! As fun as Music City is during the day, the real magic happens at night…the lights, the energy, the music; nothing compares. #YEEHAW

Katelyn Koch Lead Payroll Coordinator Elim Care, Inc Katelyn.koch@elimcare.org I am very excited for GPUG Summit Nashville! I love Nashville, so to be able to combine Nashville and learning about Microsoft Dynamics GP will be awesome! This will be my second year attending Summit, so I feel like I will be able to get that much more out of it having a better understanding of what to expect. I am looking forward to the wonderful session topics and being able to expand my knowledge of the solution. I’m also looking forward to the wonderful networking opportunities and being able to discuss different situations with other peers to hear how they do things or what they recommend. I had a great time at my first Summit, so I’m sure this one will be wonderful as well!

TIPS & TRICKS

Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow – Don’t Let It Scare You; It’s Easy! by Shawn Dorward, GPUG® Partner Member

icrosoft Dynamics GP Workflow is an incredible feature that is ready to save you time and money! At Summit 2017, I’ll team up with GPUG All Star and general manager Bob McAdam to show how Partners and Customers can work together to use this feature! Whether you’re implementing a new business process, or replacing an existing paper process, Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow is easy and effective! During this session, real-live workflows will be built, integrated, and put into use. Some key benefits to Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow will be highlighted so that attendees can get a full picture of the power of this functionality: Email Approval: Although Microsoft Dynamics GP functionality provides the ability for approval directly within the product, the email approval capabilities offer a huge time-saving opportunity. Document Attachment: Embracing digital transformation within your organization is easy when utilizing Microsoft Dynamics GP

Document Attach and Workflow. Approvers receive the supporting documents directly to Outlook so they can review the documents and then approve or reject the request, right from their mobile device. Navigation Lists: Many Users don’t notice how impactful Navigation Lists can be when working with Workflows. With Navigation lists, approvers can handle workflow requests in bulk, rather than one at a time. We can look forward to additional functionality specific to Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow in the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 release later this year! We hope to see you at our Summit session! For more information regarding Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow, check out the many webinars available on GPUG.com. GPUG Shawn Dorward, GPUG All Star, is a senior implementation consultant at InterDyn Artis. His blog can be found at Gplifehacks.com, and he can be reached at Shawn.dorward@interdynartis.com.

Whether you’re implementing a new business process, or replacing an existing paper process, Microsoft Dynamics GP Workflow is easy and effective!

COMPANY Avanade

INTERVIEWEE Tom Rosinski, Global Business Applications Leader

WEBSITE www.avanade.com

HEADQUARTERS Seattle, WA

PHONE 206-926-2000

EMAIL Tom.rosinski@avanade.com

ESTABLISHED 2000

DECORATED PARTNER, YEAR AFTER YEAR… » Received Microsoft Dynamics Inner Circle Award for 13 consecutive years.

» Accenture and Avanade have been named the 2017 Microsoft Alliance Systems Integrator (SI) Partner of the Year for the 10th year in a row and 13th time overall.

46 | GPUG Magazine

vanade started as a joint venture between Microsoft and Accenture in 2000, offering clients solutions spanning the entire Microsoft stack. In addition to their Microsoft Dynamics CRM and Microsoft Dynamics AX practices, Avanade has more than 30,000 resources in 24 different countries and revenues over $2 billion. The key to their successful growth is an intense focus on industry. Instead of focusing on product, Avanade delivers solutions and services in industries and sub-verticals with growing concentrations in different parts of the world. Tom Rosinski, global business applications leader, says, “Avanade is not so much a product company. We are a systems integrator with assets and best practices around a variety of industries. Collaboration is at the heart of our culture, and our approach is based on the latest thinking about digital and cloud solutions, business applications, and technology services. That’s how we help Customers transform their business and succeed in this fast-changing landscape.” Avanade currently serves 19 industries/ sub-verticals, including health (both payer and provider), manufacturing (consumer products and industrial products), financial services (banking and capital markets), retail (food and beverage, convenience stores, and fashion), resources (utilities, oil, and gas), and life sciences (pharma, bio pharm, and medical devices), and service companies (AEC, NFP).

GPUG®: You are a global giant in the Microsoft world. Can you map out what that looks like in terms of what services you offer where? Tom Rosinski (TR): We are headquartered out of Seattle, but our business is broken into three geographies: North America, growth markets (all of Asia and Australia), and Europe. We also have a large presence in India as part of our global delivery network. Our delivery centers comprise onshore, nearshore, and offshore sites – located in 10 countries across the world, from India and the Philippines to Argentina, Spain, and beyond. Annually, the Avanade team comes together to see what industries we want to focus on in those geographies. We dive deep into the countries and research what’s trending and what’s changing. For example, in France, Netherlands, and Belgium, healthcare and utilities are huge. And manufacturing industries are growing immensely in Australia, Switzerland, Germany, and the U.S.

GPUG: How do you determine growth markets, and how has Microsoft Dynamics 365 factored into this lately? TR: Because of the joint ownership between Microsoft and Accenture, we rely on them for change management expertise when needed. Accenture is getting more and more excited about Dynamics 365 because it has entered the scene as a solid competitor to other enterprise business applications. It is a great cloud solution and has opened up a whole new marketplace.

Moving forward, the benefits are hard to ignore. Projects have fast implementation schedules, and the mindset to customize has shifted. Users are more interested in how to use their ERP out of the box rather than customize. I think this shift in thinking has been the biggest change in our industry.

More companies in the $2 to $3 billion dollar revenue range are considering it. These companies usually have multiple applications running as a pseudo ERP, and there is a ton of risk that associates with that. It’s also not easy to do a global rollout or grow with disparate systems. An integrator like Avanade mitigates that risk, and better yet, Dynamics 365 makes it possible for large companies to grow and scale without a complicated technology framework. We currently have more than 3,000 global resources in our combined Microsoft Dynamics AX and Microsoft Dynamics CRM practice. GPUG: How has the cloud discussion changed with clients? Are they more interested in taking that leap? TR: The discussion has changed a lot. Clients in North America were much quicker to say yes to having their ERP in the cloud. Europe was slower and more apt to choose on-premise versus online. Moving forward, the benefits are hard to ignore. Projects have fast implementation schedules, and the mindset to customize has shifted. Users are more interested in how to use their ERP out of the box rather than customize. I think this shift in thinking has been the biggest change in our industry. There is a lot of functionality in the cloud, and clients aren’t tied down to one old version. The features and capabilities grow, and clients can take advantage of them as they go.

GPUG: Do you think this is a big reason more companies are adopting the cloud and low-customization mentality? TR: Yes, I think that has a lot to do with it. When they can see more things coming in a future release, they want to stay as close to the core product that is there and don’t want to limit themselves from future releases. In technology, there will always be new things to take advantage of. Most companies are continuing to grow and need software that grows with them, and they want software that’s not too big or complex to implement in the first place. GPUG: What do you have coming up for Microsoft Dynamics Users within the next year? TR: As I mentioned, we are not product focused; rather, we’re building our industry capabilities. We offer complete capabilities modules, business process hierarchies, and mapping to figure out the best fit. For example, figuring out what ISV or asset to use so that Users can be more productive. We build a roadmap for different industries to see how it all fits together in the future. This industry and process-focused approach identifies digital enablement points and ties those into all the Microsoft products available in IoT (Internet of Things), machine learning, and Power BI, and then integrates those features with an overall Dynamics 365 solution. Companies are looking for a complete solution, and that’s what we strive to provide...always. GPUG

Microsoft Dynamics GP Users in the

“OTHER” CATEGORY

story by Billie Moore, GPUG® User Member

got the idea to write this article from the GPUG meetings and networking events I regularly attend. I’m always interested in what industries use Microsoft Dynamics GP and in what capacity they use it. Working in Michigan, I hear a lot from Users in the automotive industry or banking, but I’m always fascinated by the industries that fall outside the norm – farms, waste management, hotels, etc. These are the companies that fall into the “not listed/other” category when you are required to choose from a predefined list, something I have grown accustomed to in many regards.

In the realm of companies using Microsoft Dynamics GP, our company likely falls into the small company category, but Palace Sports & Entertainment and Detroit Pistons have a diverse business model that includes venues, charitable entities, and various events. This diversification warrants around 15 active companies in Microsoft Dynamics GP at any given time. Currently we are on Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 SP2, and yes, I know, we are a few versions behind but have an upgrade on the horizon. We use all the standard modules (Financial, Sales, Purchasing, Inventory, etc.) and some not-so-usual modules, such as Field Service which we use for Contract Administration. Just as many other companies utilizing Microsoft Dynamics GP with a vast need for functionality, we have an array of addon products. Although we started out with slightly less, we have increased our number of third-party products to 11 over the years, covering eight ISVs. I realize that this is an impressive amount of addon products, but I assure you we have assessed and concluded all products are not only useful, but also essential to our everyday processing. Venue business means you have data coming from a variety of locations, ticketing, POS (point of sale) systems, retail, suites, and the list goes on. We integrate data in and out of Microsoft Dynamics GP with so many other systems that it requires multiple Microsoft Visio slides to keep track of data movement. Several data integrations are semiautomated, while others are fully automated using our core data integration tool, SmartConnect. This allows for minimal manual intervention, which saves a great deal of time and minimizes the risk that would come with manual entries. As for reporting, we once again have a diverse need. For the most part, we use core products like Management Reporter and SmartLists, but we do incorporate other reporting tools as well, including writing SQL reports with auto delivery or SSRS. We are looking forward to working with a form of Jet Reports, possibly starting with Jet Express with our next upgrade.

I’m privileged to work with a small but highly capable staff that is always willing to learn and grow their skill set. We regularly take advantage of the Partner webinars and many training opportunities through our GPUG membership. I embrace the “not listed/other” category and encourage others that are not easily put into a predefined category to come out to a networking event and share your experience with other Users.

Credentialed DYNAMICS PROFESSIONALS

GET CREDENTIALED

today!

Take our Microsoft Dynamics GP exams and become a Dynamics Credentialed Professional. Join the few that have already passed the exams and prove to yourself and the Microsoft Dynamics community that you have a deep understanding of the product.

DynamicsPro, powered by Dynamic Communities and GPUG®, is proud to offer this one-of-a-kind credentialing program. The community identified a gap three years ago as Microsoft Dynamics GP Users and Partners no

longer had a way to test their knowledge and officially get recognized as Microsoft Dynamics GP experts. Now,

with the hard work of the credentialing council and the Microsoft Dynamics GP exam committee, everyone has the chance to test their knowledge in the solution.

DynamicsPro exams are written by a committee of Microsoft Dynamics GP Partner and User experts. They are challenging, relevant, valuable, and truly do test your knowledge of Microsoft Dynamics GP.

We currently offer two Microsoft Dynamics GP exams. Pass either or both, and you yourself will be a Dynamics Credentialed Professional. You will receive the credentialed mark below to be used on your e-mail signature, social media, etc. along with a certificate of achievement.

Visit www.dynamicspro.org today for details, register for your Microsoft Dynamics GP exam, and get started on becoming a Dynamics Credentialed Professional. 58 | GPUG Magazine
