Day: October 1, 2018

The Inside Microsoft Dynamics GP blog has started a series Feature of the Day posts for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 R2 on which I am following and adding commentary. The series index for this series of posts is here.

The nineteenth Feature of the Day is option to not display inactive checkbooks in lookup.

This feature is a new option Exclude Inactive Checkbooks in the checkbook lookup which can be selected; it can also be set your default lookup:

With the last feature of the day which defaults the Checkbook on the creation of a payment run, there probably won’t be muh use for this feature.

The eighteenth Feature of the Day is Checkbook ID defaults on check batch.

This feature is an enhancement which defaults the Checkbook ID default from the Payables Management Setup window (Purchasing area page » Setup » Payables) into the Payables Batch Entry window (Purchasing area page » Transactions » Payables Batches) when creating a Computer Checks batch. The Checkbook ID will also default in the Select Payments and Edit Payment Batch window.

I welcome this feature as it will somewhat streamline the creation of payment runs. A lot of clients will only use one checkbook for making payments, so it has always seemed od that the chequebook couldn’t be defauted in.
