In this small article we would like to review the way to revise and redeploy legacyMicrosoft Dexterity customization, which is probably still in production mode inyour company. Former Great Plains Software Dynamics and eEnterprise product lineswere under extensive tailoring to fit business processes back in 1990th.

This tool allows you to create new GP screens and tables and associatethem with GP native screens, such as Customer maintenance Microsoft Visual Studio.
