I was speaking with one of our great Dynamics GP Partners today and mentioned the word “PowerPivot” on the call as though I assumed he (and everyone else in the Microsoft community) knew what I was talking about. I shouldn’t have been surprised to find out he hadn’t heard of this yet, as now that I look back through our blog posts and communications to our Customers and Partners, we haven’t done a great job of telling everyone about THE NEXT BIG THING when it comes to Microsoft Office 2010 (at least for you spreadsheet junkies out there).

Dynamics GP 10.0 and Microsoft Office provide an integration method called an Office Data Connection that allows us to view Dynamics GP data in Excel worksheets. When the data connections are deployed, ODC files are created and saved to a server location. Each ODC file links to a company or system database and this ensures that the most recent data is displayed whenever an ODC file is opened.
Each ODC file corresponds to a SmartList favourite so the ODC file called Customers Customer Balance contains the same data as the Customer Balance SmartList object.
You can also deploy Excel reports to a shared network location or if you have Office SharePoint Server 2007 in your enterprise then they can be reports library. Each Excel report connects to a single ODC file to display data therefore the Excel report called…
