Microsoft Dynamics GP in our opinion should be considered as reliable and robustplatform for implementing tailored ERP system for contemporary unique businesses. This is different from standard CPA type of implementation, when MRP partner justenters beginning balances into GP GL, AP, AR, IV and Payroll modules, trains users,modifies Sales Invoice form and let you go life with standard GP logic. Here wewould like to give you highlight on how to implement unique business processes Customization. This is very helpful and at the same time modification requiresexperience in GP software development. You should become completely satisfied withGP developers design architecture  especially its version upgradeability. Youshould be aware that Microsoft from time to time changes development paradigms: fromasp to .Net/aspx, from VBA to other options such as web services, C#. Also youshould know what is Microsoft Dexterity customization perspective is  looks likeMicrosoft was trying to deemphasize dex in 2003-2004 and then in 2005 Dexterity wasback on scene as architecture of GP Reporting. Here you should consider two powerful reporting tools (beyondMicrosoft Dynamics GP ReportWriter): MS SQL Server Reporting Services and CrystalReports. With Microsoft Great Plains version 7.0 Crystal Reports was the tool ofchoice. However things changed with version 9.0, when Microsoft introducedinterface with MS SQL Server Reporting Services  this meant the end of CrystalReports dominance. If you have legacy Crystal Reports form your GP installation,you may consider keeping and upgrading Crystal Reports and have them being runoutside of GP interface, and at the same time targeting GP database Integration. GP Integration Manager was and still is the end-user integrationtool, which may be extended by VBA scripting and fields translation: in Excel youcan create translation table and import into GP IM integration. At the same time,as Microsoft opens GP for MS Visual Studio C#/VB developers  eConnect comes on thescenes as professional integration tool.
