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 twenty-second Feature of the Day is mass update of master records from navigation lists.
This feature today is the ability to mass update a group of master records from the Navigation Lists; you can now inactivate and reactive multiple records at the same time for the following master record types:
- Accounts
- Checkbooks
- Customers
- Vendors
- Items
- Employees
In addition, the vendor navigation list allows you to mass update the temporary status.
A visual indicator quickly lets you know the status of these records:
Since navigation lists were introduced in Dynamics GP 10, they have grown increasingly common in usage, in particular new clients; there are some navigation lists which rarely see use, but ones for master records and transactions seem to be used a lot. There have been a few enhancements to ists over time, and I welcome even more being introduced, so it is good to see this feature.
