GP PowerPack Login Monitor

Price $2400 Demo Manual

Login Monitor has several features to help improve security and make full use of Dynamics GP user licenses.

Login Monitor can remove ‘inactive’ users either on an as-needed basis, or when they have been inactive for a certain amount of time.  In the first method, when a new user attempts to log-in, if there is not an available user seat, Login Monitor will check for inactive users and remove one from the system so the new user can get in.  In the second method, security is enhanced by automatically removing users once their ‘inactivity time’ has exceeded a threshold and closing the GP client.

Login Monitor supports a system-wide inactivity time, which can be superseded by user-specific inactivity time settings.  Additionally, individual users can be excluded from the inactivity control.

Reserved Seats provides control over a number of users seats set aside for groups of users (by User Class).  For example, an ADMIN could be assigned 2 seats, which can then only be consumed by users in the ADMIN User Class.  If there are 30 user licenses, reserving 2 for ADMIN will make Dynamics GP behave as if there are 28 seats available for all other users.

GP PowerPack IV Mass Transaction

Price $2400 Manual

IV Mass Transaction creates an Inventory Transfer or Adjustment of all inventory in a selected “From Site” and “From Bin”.

IV Mass Transaction

Create an Adjustment to remove everything from a specified Site/Bin (it works with or without Multi-bins enabled).

IV Mass Transaction

The IV Mass Adjustment utility creates the Inventory Adjustment by selecting all available inventory in the From Site/Bin.  Serial/Lot controlled inventory is also added to the Adjustment.

IV Mass Adjustment can be used, for example, to quickly remove all inventory from a Returns-Rejects Site/Bin.

IV Mass Transaction

IV Mass Transfer can be used together with WilloWare’s Bin-to-Bin Transfer enhancement (as shown above).  The IV Mass Transfer utility adds all inventory from a selected From Site/Bin to the Inventory Transfer.

The To Site is either entered by the user, or in the case of Bin-to-Bin Transfers it is automatically set to match the From Site.  In either case, the To Bin can either use a Default Bin entered by the user, or a To Bin assigned to the Item-Site in the Item Site Default Bins window.

As shown above, the Default To Bin is “TEST”, and the To Bin Source is the Purchase Receipts Bin.  With these options, the transfer will pull all inventory from WAREHO– USE Bin A, and put the inventory into each Item’s respective Purchase Receipts Bin (if there is one), or into TEST.

IV Mass Transaction

In this example, the Transfer allocates all inventory in the From Site/Bin, including serial/lot controlled inventory, and adds it to the Transfer.  The To Bin is retrieved from the Item’s Purchase Receipts Bin.

IV Mass Transfer can be used to support an incoming inspection routine where PO Receipts initially go into a Pending Inspection Bin.  After Inspection the inventory is moved into a Released Bin, and from there the Mass Transfer can create a “directed put-away” transfer pulling all inventory from the Released Bin and placing it into each Item’s Stocking Bin.

GP PowerPack idModifier

Price $1800 Manual

idModifier is a utility for updating ID fields (strings) in the Dynamics GP Company database.  idModifier takes a novel approach in that it can be “trained” to update ANY string field, so it can handle updates beyond just the core Dynamics GP tables.  It can handle Field Service, Manufacturing, Human Resources, and Project Accounting.  It can also update 3rd Party Products and customizations.

The first step is to “training” idModifier by providing it sample data.  For example, to develop an Item Number modifier profile, you would have it search for representative samples such as “128 SDRAM”, “256 SDRAM” and “100 XLG”.  It searches ALL string fields in ALL tables in the company database looking for the sample data.

The ID Add window provides 1-click access to view data in a selected table.

When the update profile is complete it is ready to be used in idModifier.

The update process first confirms that the target new value (i.e. the “new” Item Number) does not exist in any of the update tables.  If it does not, the update proceeds, and if not, all errors are reported.

GP PowerPack Extended Lot Attributes

Price $2400 Demo Manual

Extended Lot Attributes track an unlimited number of user-defined lot attributes beyond the normal five provided by Dynamics GP.   The ELA fields are “attached” to the Lot Number, so they are available no matter where the Lot Number is used.  The ELA fields can be of any datatype, have one or more set as required and have pre-defined values accessed from a Lookup.

Create an unlimited number of Lot Attributes using string fields, dates, numbers, checkboxes and lookups.

The ELA Lot Attribute Entry window shows required fields with a Red Dot.

 

GP PowerPack Color Settings

Price $0 Manual

Color Settings is a free utility for tweaking the GP user interface.  Color Settings provides a very detailed level of control over the appearance of the line color on scrolling windows, text, window backgrounds, buttons, column headings, tools bars, and more.  Some uses for Color Settings are:

  • Make the windows different colors in different companies (i.e. so you do not forget you are logged into a test company)
  • Simplify scrolling window colors so they work better onCitrix and Terminal Server remote sessions (i.e. eliminate the “invisible line” syndrome)
  • Create high-contrast displays for difficult viewing environments, like a shop floor.
  • Provides access to change the color on 26 user interface elements using 17 different colors.  That provides nearly 6000 unique combinations!

GP PowerPack Client Version Tracking

Price $0 Manual

Client Version Tracking is a free utility for managing the configuration of every Dynamics GP client in your system.  When each client connects to the server, Client Version Tracking records the version information of every dexterity product installed on the client.  Version information for all clients can be viewed in the Client Version Information window, where the view can be restricted by client computer or module, or a “Conflicts Only” view that just shows client/modules with version conflicts.  An optional setting prevents GP clients with conflicts from logging-in to GP until the conflicts are resolved.

GP PowerPack Banking Enhancements

Price $1800 Demo Manual

GP PowerPack’s Banking Enhancements for Dynamics GP add a number of features to several areas of the GP Banking functionality which make it quicker and easier to use.

  • Advanced Filters add additional methods for sorting and restricting data in the Banking windows.
  • Additional information about transactions is displayed on the Banking windows to reduce the time it takes to locate specific documents.
  • The Document Type columns display additional codes to provide a more detailed categorization
  • Auto-Zoom automatically refreshes zoom windows

Bank Deposit Entry

be_bankdep2

Advanced Filters provide several additional methods for searching, sorting, and restricting the list of deposits.  You can quickly sort deposits by dollar amount (as shown above), or display only AMEX deposits with the Credit Card restriction.

be_bankdep1

To help find a specific deposit, when a document is selected in the scrolling window, the Transaction Description will display in the title bar.

The Deposit Slip Preview window shows only the receipts marked for deposit.  This provides a quick way to confirm the deposit in GP matches your deposit slip.  The window can remain open and refreshes automatically as you mark receipts.

 

Bank Reconciliation

be_bankrec1

The number of codes displayed in the TYPE column is expanded to provide more detail about deposits.  Rather than simply showing DEP for each deposit, the Type field contains a code indicating the type of cash receipt(s) contained in the deposit.

K = Checks

S = Cash

C = Credit Cards

When a deposit contains only credit cards, the first letter of each Card Name will be displayed, up to three cards.  As shown above, using the Fabrikam data, the code BGP indicates a deposit containing:

Bankcard

Gold Credit

Platinum Credit

be_bankrec2

Advanced Filters provide the ability to restrict the Bank Rec window by any of the Type codes.  Use Filter to quickly restrict the window to show only credit card deposits.

be_bankrec3

To speed research, selecting a document in the scrolling window displays the Transaction Description in the title bar.

Auto-Zoom automatically refreshes an open zoom window when you click on a new document.  For example,  once the Bank Deposit Entry Zoom window is open, each time you click on a deposit in the Bank Rec window, the zoom window will re-display to show the newly selected deposit.  This saves a lot of clicks over having to repeatedly select a document then click the Zoom button.

The Excel Solver integration provides a solution for a very complicated problem–how to find a set of deposits which total a specific amount.  You might have individual Credit Card deposits recorded in GP, but the bank reports a single deposit amount.  The Excel Solver integration sends the contents from the Bank Rec window out to a Solver template, and launches the Excel Solver Add-In.  Solver examines all of the documents to find a combination which totals the amount you specify.

 

Checkbook Register Inquiry

be_ckbkinq1

The number of codes displayed in the TYPE column is expanded to provide more detail about deposits.  Rather than simply showing DEP for each deposit, the Type field contains a code indicating the type of cash receipt(s) contained in the deposit.

K = Checks

S = Cash

C = Credit Cards

When a deposit contains only credit cards, the first letter of each Card Name will be displayed, up to three cards.  As shown above, using the Fabrikam data, the code BGP indicates a deposit containing:

Bankcard

Gold Credit

Platinum Credit

be_ckbkinq2

Advanced Filters provide the ability to restrict the Checkbook Register Inquiry window by any of the Type codes.  Use the Filters to quickly restrict the window to show only credit card deposits.  Additional filters provide the ability to perform a “contains search” on the Paid To/Receive From and Description fields.

To speed research, selecting a document in the scrolling window displays the Transaction Description in the title bar.

Auto-Zoom automatically refreshes an open zoom window when you click on a new document.  For example,  once the Bank Deposit Entry Zoom window is open, each time you click on a deposit in the Checkbook Register Inquiry window, the zoom window will re-display to show the newly selected deposit.  This saves a lot of clicks over having to repeatedly select a document then click the Zoom button.

  • Remove Bins Utility Fix: The GP Remove Bins utility is supposed to check if a bin is assigned as a Default Bin at the Item-Site level, and not remove the bin if it is a default bin. The utility does not perform this check, and removes bins assigned as default. The Remove Bins Utility Fix ensures the default bin check is performed.
  • Set IV Batch Post to GL checkbox: automatically sets the Post to GL checkbox on Inventory Batch Entry to ensure that batches are always posted through to GL by default.
  • Stock Calendar Years: The GP Stock Calendar window has a “years” dropdown list that only has years up to 2020.  The Stock Calendar Years tweak extends this to 2094.

  • Vendor Approvals (view demo): apply a “hard” Hold to a Vendor. Normally Dynamics GP will prompt that a Vendor is on Hold, but allow the user to continue with a Purchase Order. With Vendor Approvals enabled, when the Hold box is marked Vendor Maintenance, a PO cannot be created using the vendor. Vendor Approvals also makes sure that new Vendors are automatically placed on Hold. Specify which users are authorized to remove the Vendor Hold.

  • Auto-Close Child Windows: No more playing “Where’s Window” after clicking Save on a Sales Transaction. GP will tell you that a window is open, but does not bring it forward, requiring the user to hunt for and close the window before being allowed to save the document. This Tweak will automatically close open child windows automatically.
  • Auto-Fill GL Reference: populates the GL Reference fields on the Sales Document Detail Entry window with the SOP Number.
  • Auto-Open Customer Detail Entry: There are a number of fields and buttons on the Customer Detail Entry window that provide access to information about a customer that you do not see on the main SOP Entry window.  When creating a new transaction, rather than selecting a Customer then clicking the expansion button to open Customer Detail Entry, this tweak will open the window automatically after the SOP Number is generated.  You can select the customer directly on the Customer Detail Entry window and have direct access to different views of customer sales and payment history, along with Ship To Address fields, payment terms and so on.
  • Auto-Set Quantity To Backorder: calculates and updates the Quantity to Backorder field when the Quantity Fulfilled is set to a value less than the Order Quantity or Invoice Quantity.
  • Cancel Drop Ship: Cancels the remaining quantity on a drop-ship line while keeping the SOP-POP Link.  The SOP-POP Link and PO are also updated to reflect the canceled quantity.

  • Customer PO – Required (view demo): allows you to make the Customer PO Number field required on Sales Transaction Entry. The setup allows you to specify whether the Customer PO Number should always be required for all Customers, or required only for certain Customers.
  • Display Shipping Weight in Title Bar: calculates the total Shipping Weight for the transaction and displays it in the Title Bar of the Sales Transaction Entry window.
  • Document Detail Inquiry Zoom-to-Document: the Document Detail Inquiry window shows linked documents (such as the Quote from which an Order was created), but it does not provide a way to open the document. This Tweak opens the document in the Sales Inquiry window.
  • Document Detail Voids Asterisk: the Document Detail Entry and Document Detail Inquiry window will show voided documents with an asterisk in front of the SOP Type.
  • Duplicate Items Warning:  presents a warning if the user enters an Item Number that already exists on the sales transaction.
  • Email History: adds a confirmation to the Email Documents button so you have a chance to cancel before sending an email, and tracks who sent the email, the date sent, and provides a place for the user to record a comment.  Email History works on Sales Transaction Entry and Sales Transaction Inquiry Zoom.
  • Freight Field Controls: makes the Freight field on Sales Transaction Entry un-editable. The lock can be by Customer (the Freight field is locked for all documents for a Customer), or by Document (the Freight field lock can be enabled or disabled per document). The document-level locks follow the document as it is transferred between statuses.
  • Non-Inventory Default U of M: Dynamics GP normally uses “Each” as the Unit of Measure for Non-Inventory items. The SOP Non-Inventory Default U of M feature allows you to provide your own U of M to use for Non-Inventory items (such as Gallon or Unit).
  • Non-Tracked Item Serial/Lot Entry: provides a way to record serial or lot numbers on non-inventory type items, non-serial/lot tracked items, and for all item types on Drop-Ship orders.  Normally GP allows entry/selection of serial or lot numbers only if the item is set up to track serial/lot numbers.  However you may have serial/lot tracked items in inventory and need to provide that information to your customer.  Another use of this Tweak is to record serial/lot numbers for Drop-Shipped items.  Regardless of how the item is set up in GP (i.e. it may be serial tracked), GP does not allow recording serial numbers on drop-shipped lines.  The serial/lot numbers print on existing GP SOP Forms just like they do with serial/lot controlled inventory items. This Tweak also integrates with the serial/lot tracking windows so inquiries can be performed to locate transactions by serial or lot number.
  • Payment Zoom: adds a payment status indicator (Unpaid, Paid, Partially Paid) to Sales Transaction Inquiry Zoom, and provides an Additional menu to view applied documents.
  • Quick Print Mailing Labels: Print Customer Mailing Labels directly from Sales Transaction Entry for the displayed Customer. Eliminates the time consuming task of creating or modifying a Mailing Label Report Option just to print a single label.
  • Require Customer Item: Prevents using an Item in Sales Transaction Entry if a Customer-Item record does not exist.  This tweak can be used to enforce a rule requiring customers to be approved to purchase Items, or to ensure a customer only has access to certain Items, such as private-label inventory.
  • Requested Ship Date Auto-Calculate: Enables system calculated Ship Dates based on a combination of Shipping Method and UPS Zone. The calculation can also be based on Zip Code, or either of the Address User Defined fields.
  • Requested Ship Date Rolldown: A change made to the Requested Ship Date on Sales Date Entry will roll down to all sales lines. It also will update linked Purchase Orders, and reschedule linked Manufacturing Orders.
  • Requested Ship Date MOP & POP Link:
  • Reset Document Date: when the Save button is clicked the Sales Transaction Entry window normally remembers the last used date. This feature will automatically reset the Document Date to the User Date.
  • Reset Pack Slip Num on Transfer: causes GP to generate a unique Packing Slip Number for each partial fulfillment.
  • Reset Pick Ticket Num on Transfer: causes GP to generate a unique Picking Ticket Number for each partial fulfillment.
  • Sales Doc Print Options Defaults: save default settings for all of the checkboxes and drop-downs on the Sales Document Print Options window so when it opens to print a Sales Document (or Batch), settings like “Reprint Previously Printed” or “Print Customer Item” will be marked by default.
  • Trade Discount Calculation: Automatically calculate the Trade Discount based on your own custom business rules.
  • Transfer Document Auto-Mark Options: the “transfer to order/invoice/backorder” and “include totals and deposits” boxes will auto-mark when the window opens.  Depending on the SOP Line quantities, the system will decide, for example,  if you are transferring an Order to Invoice, an Order to Backorder, or both.
  • Use Item’s Default Site: The SOP line Location Code will be set to the Item’s Default Site (assigned on Item Quantities Maintenance).
  • SOP Rules: a “sub-set” of Tweaks containing a number of small SOP Entry controls:
    • Batch ID Change on Fulfillment: When the quantity fulfilled is updated on any of the lines on an Order or Invoice, the Batch ID will change automatically.  Use this Rule to send transactions into a “Ready To Invoice” Batch.
    • Batch ID Default by User ID: Sets the Batch ID based on a default assigned to the User. The Batch ID field can also be locked to prevent changes.
    • Document ID Default by User ID: Sets the Document ID (which controls the document number sequence) based on the User ID. The Document ID can be locked to prevent changes.
    • Document ID Required SOP User Defined Fields: for each Document ID (such as STDORD or PHNORD) different SOP User Defined Fields can be set as Required Fields.  If the Document ID has required fields, the User Defined Field Entry window will open automatically, show the required fields, and require entry.
    • Location Default by Customer: Set the Default Site assigned to the document, and the lines, based on the Customer ID. The Location Code can be locked to prevent changes.
    • Location Default by Document ID: Set the Default Site assigned to the document, and the lines, based on the Document ID. The Location Code can be locked to prevent changes.
    • Location Default by User ID: Sets the Default Site assigned to the document, and the lines, based on the User ID. The Location Code can be locked to prevent changes.
    • Secure Batch by User: Prevents users from accessing Sales Transactions in a “Secure Batch” that belongs to another user.  Only the owner(s) of the “Secure Batch” can edit transactions in the batch, or assign new transactions to their Secure Batch.
    • Transfer to Batch by Document ID: Link a Transfer To Batch ID to each SOP Document ID, then have that Batch ID automatically fill in the Transfer To Batch ID on the Sales Document Detail Entry window.  Normally GP transfers an Order to Invoice and keeps the document in the same Batch.  With this rule enabled, the document will transfer into a new batch assigned to the Invoice ID.
