Reset Workflows in Dynamics GP http://janakirammp.blogspot.com/2009/11/reset-workflows-in-dynamics-gp.html
Recently while I was testing the workflows for Dynamics GP, I have had to uninstall the Workflows. Prior to uninstalling the workflows, it is always recommended to deactivate the active workflows. I forgot I was having GL Entry batch approval workflow active while doing this uninstall operation. The result was whenever I login to GP and try to open the General entry or GL batch entry window, I get a message saying Dynamics GP…
gptip42day - Order Entry Workflow http://gp2themax.blogspot.com/2009/09/dynamic-du-jour-order-entry-workflow.html
So you want to efficiently take a call from a customer, check their credit status, item availability and pricing, and enter a new order quickly and easily while on the call with them . . .
Unfortunately, this topic is for V10 users only as prior versions of GP don't include the powerful Lists functionality in V10. (Note - click on any of the images to view larger versions of them)
This is straightforward using the Lists in the Navigation Pane. Click the Sales button in the Navigation Pane. Click the 'Customers' List at the top of the List Pane. Locate the Customer. An existing Customer's credit worthiness will likely be based on a combination of their D&B rating and your company's…

GP 2010 Feature #5: Electronic Signatures Workflow http://computerationdynamics.blogspot.com/2010/06/gp-2010-feature-5-electronic-signatures.html
If you’re like many of us, gathering electronic client signatures before moving forward with each project is a pain in the “you know what”. You need to ensure the contract is in the right format so your client can actually access the document in order to sign it and you need to also lock the legal terms and conditions. The preparation alone requires an extra head in your…

GP 10: Workflow http://msdynamicsgp.blogspot.com/2007/03/gp-10-workflow.html
I went to the workflow session yesterday because I really want workflow and I really want it to work. I was worried that this was a half baked first step.
With everything I saw, it looks like a really good feature. There are a few limitations that will cause problems for some people but unlike some earlier workflow attempts from GP (anyone remember the original eRequisition?) it looks really well fleshed out.
I found that I was so intrigued that I hardly took any notes so here's what I remember.
- The flow was extremely flexible with lots of options for approvals. Especially prevelant were email notifications and approvals including rolling up…

GP 2010 Feature #8: Workflow http://computerationdynamics.blogspot.com/2010/07/gp-2010-feature-8-workflow.html
Workflows within any software are a great way to streamline every day business tasks. Microsoft Dynamics® GP 2010 takes workflows to the next level, offering more options and creating more streamlined processes. Besides the existing approval step, users can now define “action” steps as part of the workflow definition. The new action step allows you to define an action to be taken during the workflow process rather than just an approval. Once the action has been completed, the action step can be marked as completed and the workflow will advance to the next step. The action step definition includes a description of the action to be taken such as assigning a new employee a unique employee ID or contacting the Better Business Bureau to get a rating on a vendor prior to doing business with them.
The following…

The Advanced Distribution module in Dynamics GP allows you to setup a workflow process for order fulfillment. You can select up to six steps, and rename them to fit your organization. This functionality gives you more control over the order fulfilment process and helps ensure that orders are processed accurately.
These are the setup steps from the contextual "Help" documentation:
If you’re using sales fulfillment workflow, use the Sales Fulfillment Order/Invoice Setup window to activate workflow for sales. Use the Sales Fulfillment Document Workflow Setup…

Feature of the Day: Vendor Workflow http://blogs.msdn.com/gp/archive/2010/02/12/feature-of-the-day-vendor-workflow.aspx
Vendor Workflow
Why this feature is cool!
When a new vendor is added to the system, there is certain data that needs to be entered in Vendor Maintenance. Often times this information is entered by multiple individuals and involves a step by step process. Furthermore, there might be tasks that need to be done outside of the system, such as ensuring that there is a signed contract with the vendor. Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 will incorporate a new vendor workflow that will…

Has anyone used the GP Workflow SDK? http://dynamicsgpland.blogspot.com/2010/01/has-anyone-used-gp-workflow-sdk.html
I recently fielded a question on
Experts Exchange on how to add workflow support for a Dynamics GP ISV solution.
I know that there is a Workflow SDK, but I have never installed it or looked at the documentation. I am only aware of one or two GP clients that I have worked with that used…

Dropship Workflow http://rldu.wordpress.com/2009/11/13/dropship-workflow/
This is a post I made on the Dynamics GP Community forums regarding drop ship workflows.
We dropship 50% of our orders to our customers (if I could make it so it would be 100%). Our standard workflow is to
- Enter the sales order in GP (well we actually do not use GP for our sales order entry process but we used to)
- Click the dropship box for the line items that we want to dropship
- Click the purchase button that has shown up on the sales order after you…
