Day: November 22, 2017

The Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP blog has started a series Feature of the Day posts for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 RTM; as the most recent versions have been, these posts are in the form of PowerPoint slides; I am reposting them here so they can be read more easily as well as adding my won commentary.

The series index for this series of posts is here.

The sixteenth Feature of the Day is SmartList Favorite Password Protection. This new feature is in response to the reaction to the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016 R2 new feature of SmartList Favorite Protection.

The problem with this feature, was that the security was at the global SmartList level so all SmartLists would be protected by the same password. The new feature being introduced in Dynamics GP 2018, is password protection at the SmartList Favourite level:

I’m bery happy to see the password available at the SmartList Favourite level as this will make it useful to quite a few clients who have asked about how to protect their favourites. It’s also nice to see it for another reason; it shows that Microsoft is responsive to the requests of the Dynamics GP community.

The fifteenth Feature of the Day is Copy User Access Across AA Dimensions. A new button has been introduced to the User Access to Trx Dimensions window which allows setup to be copied between users:

All alphanumeric dimensions in AA need to have access configured on a per user basis; this can mean a lot of work to both setup and maintain. This new functionality should at least make it a little easier by allowing you to copy settings between users.
