Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) 10 - What's new
Your people and teams can succeed in a highly collaborative work
environment by sharing files and information, bridging communication
between your employees, customers, and partners. Your people can also
work faster and smarter when working with a user interface that is
designed for how people really do work.
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 helps to ensure consistency, accuracy, and
tighter controls across your business with automated approval workflows.
Workflows can be set up to fit the unique needs of your business
process.
People also have quick and easy access to shared information with
enhanced search capabilities across your organization. And you can be
confident in the integrity and confidentiality of critical information
with improved security features.
Dynamics GP 10 helps Increase business productivity on all levels
Provide everyone in your organization—from your chief executive
officer (CEO) to your finance managers, your salespeople to your
warehouse staff—with the information, tools, and collaboration
capabilities they need to be more productive.
Streamline work details:
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 introduces Action Panes, a graphical, Role
tailored command bar—inspired by the Ribbon in the 2007 Microsoft Office
system. Action Pane allows Microsoft Dynamics GP users to perform
actions on multiple records on list pages, enabling users to preview and
filter data—without the need to open multiple windows.
The Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 interface embraces the look and feel
of the 2007 Microsoft Office system and Windows Vista, introducing a new
but consistent user experience.
Facilitate collaboration among employees, business partners and
customers:
By using Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 and Microsoft Office SharePoint
Server 2007 together, your teams can collaborate using business
information, reports, and other documents available on your company's
intranet and extranet sites. And with remote access through the Business
Portal, you can provide secure access to your employees, partners, and
customers at any time from any Internet connection.
Automate notifications and approvals with streamlined workflows.
Create automated, consistent business processes that maximize
efficiency by involving the right people at the right time. For example,
you can streamline purchase order processing with automated approval
routings tailored to actual business roles in your organization.
Workflow functions include an audit trail of task ownership and actions
to ensure compliance and accountability.
Microsoft Dynamics GP already includes six workflows, and our
consultants can build others for you. Workflow processes can be set up
to fit the needs of people's specific roles, quickly define the
conditions for approval without juggling windows, and include a workflow
history to provide an audit trail of tasks and ownership.
Dynamics GP 10 Helps maximize your ability to access information
Your people can take advantage of greater business insight no matter
whether they're working in Microsoft Dynamics GP or another application.
In addition, users can simply search for information rather than always
needing to know how to navigate to a specific report.
Find the right information quickly with advanced search capabilities.
Reduce the time and effort needed to find information, so you can
spend time on tasks that add more value. With Office SharePoint Server,
you can define what is searchable and can initiate searches from
Microsoft Dynamics GP, Office SharePoint Server, or Desktop Search that
return not only structured Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 data, but also
unstructured information, including Microsoft Office Word 2007
documents, Microsoft Office Excel 2007 spreadsheets, and Microsoft
Office Outlook 2007 e-mail messages.
Advanced search results enable you to find information more
quickly—whether you're searching from inside or outside of Microsoft
Dynamics GP.
Facilitate strategic decision-making and flexible reporting.
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 contains more than 75 pre-established
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services reports and more than 200 Office
Excel 2007 reports with refreshable data. The reports give people the
data they need to make confident decisions. And, whether they're working
in Microsoft Dynamics GP or another application, employees can store,
launch, and view reports through Office SharePoint Server Report
Libraries.
Expand your report writing options with more than 75 SQL Server
Reporting Services reports.
Dynamics GP 10 uses familiar technology that's IT friendly
Microsoft Dynamics GP offers a deep level of integration with
Microsoft technology that works with applications familiar to your
employees.
Reduce information technology (IT) workloads.
With proactive prompts during the install and automatic checking of
system prerequisites, you can speed the installation and configuration
process. Microsoft Dynamics GP also allows you to easily implement a
strong and auditable security model.
Adopt technology that enables rich functionality.
By leveraging Microsoft Office SharePoint Server, Web Services,
Microsoft SQL Server, and .NET technologies, Microsoft Dynamics GP
offers a rich set of functionality that is on a standard platform,
enabling IT staff to further extend the solution to meet the specific
needs of your organization.
Dynamics GP 10 helps streamline critical business tasks
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 has added more than 120 features to its
already robust feature set—all created to help improve your ability to
streamline critical business tasks.
Manage planning and production with greater agility.
Improved material requirements planning (MRP) capabilities with a new
pegging window provide suggestions for orders and what-if scenarios to
provide greater insight when planning.
Experience more flexible budgeting.
Budgets can now span multiple fiscal years and be tied to specific
business budgets such as grants and funds instead of finance years.
Track customer changes more efficiently.
Track customer changes by "effective date", so when a service call is
needed, the technician can be dispatched to the correct location.
Engage in a more streamlined collections process.
Improved collections aging reports, improved identification of
customers to focus collections efforts, and added information on
template collection letters help create a more effective—and
cost-effective—collections process.
