Amber’s Tips & Tricks

Dynamics GP Annual Physical

This week I had the pleasure of presenting a session at MS Dynamics World’s Decisions 2011 Virtual GP Conference.

Take a look at my session Conducting a GP Annual Physical: Simple Steps to Diagnosing the Health of Your MS Dynamics GP System for several critical but simple steps you can take to manage the health of your Dynamics GP solution.

You may also register to hear recordings of all the sessions if you missed the event.

Got deadbeats hogging your Dynamics GP licenses? Kick’em out!

If you’ve got a lot of users and limited licenses, don’t waste money buying more licenses that you don’t need. With Inactivity Timeout, when a person logged into GP sits idle for too long, we log them out gracefully to free up that license. You set the time limit, and if they haven’t worked in GP, we kick them out. One more license free. More freedom for you.

Inactivity Timeout is just one of over 20 cool features of Dynamics GP Toolbox, by Rockton Software.

First Look at ‘Windows 8’

In a recent article by Julie Larson-Green from Microsoft Experience, we learn about the next generation of Windows, code-named “Windows 8,” for the first time.

Windows 8 is described as a ‘reimagining of Windows, from the chip to the interface’. Take a look at the complete article which includes a video introducing a few of the basic elements of the new user interface.

Coming Soon! CAL’s Fall GP Training Calendar

We are trying to expand our 2011 GP Training Class Calendar and we need your help! We want to know what types of classes our clients would like to see CAL offer, if you can take a moment to reply to this email and let us know what you would like to see CAL present at our training center, that would be a big help. Also, we would love feedback regarding what days work better ( beginning of the week, end of the week etc).

We really appreciate the help so that we can re-vamp our Training calendar to benefit the needs of our clients!
