Don’t be afraid of your accounting software! Be honest. Managing your accounting software can be daunting and many IT departments take a “hands off” policy, but it doesn’t have to be that way. 

This technical hands-on course will teach you what makes GP tick, from “Why it’s done that way” in client installation, to GP table structure, managing Security, SQL backup strategy and connecting GP using web services and other tools.

We will navigate the ins and outs of the client installation, explore the depths of security, not only for GP, but for SSRS and Excel Reports, and dive into the GP tables to understand how they interrelate and how to setup SQL maintenance for peak efficiency. 

We will review the importance of SQL backups, selecting a strategy that best fits your requirements, and discuss disaster recovery options.

We will review the GP web client install process and common mistakes that administrators make that require you to reinstall every year if not done properly.  You will understand why in today’s environment you can NOT afford to deploy the web client.

You will also come away with a better understanding of how you can integrate with GP using web services, econnect and OData.  We will review the major options for integration and, time permitting, may dive into a few of the tools towards the end of the course.

When it comes to document management, Dynamics and SharePoint offer a myriad of options … not all of them good. Even the built-in SharePoint to Dynamics integration can create more problems than it solves.

In this session, you’ll learn what nobody tells you about SharePoint to Dynamics integration – including case studies on how different approaches for document management in Dynamics 365/CRM are working for different organizations.

 We will review all the available options, from using the built-in Dynamics document management, to SharePoint, to Teams, to Power Automate to custom code to third party add-ons. You’ll learn the different solutions that work best in different scenarios and you’ll learn from how one organization setup a complex SharePoint integration and how they’re modernizing it with Microsoft Teams.

Ever wonder what the folks in IT are doing when you ask them to pull data for you from Dynamics GP? Did you ever wish you could do it yourself? Well join us for this fun hands-on class and soon you’ll be speaking and using SQL like a pro!

We’ll start from the very beginning and teach you the elements of a SQL query with a focus on the Dynamics GP data structure. SQL allows users to ask a question of the database, and have it answered in a very specific way. Although it may look like gibberish to you today, SQL is one of the most logical languages there is and we intend to make it easy for you to read and write it, but beyond that, SQL actually allows you to ask a series of leading questions, coupled with specific commands, grouped together to get to the answer you really want. It’s like truth serum for your data!

Through interactive lectures and hands on examples, attendees of this class will learn:

•Understand how to employ SQL to get data out of Dynamics GP
•What is SQL and how can it be used in relation to Dynamics GP
•The components of an SQL Select query
•Different ways to connect data sources (JOINS and UNIONS)
•How to find data within Dynamics GP
•SQL Functions that can make queries better
•What to do with your query after it is written
•What are UPDATE, INSERT, and DELETE commands?
•How do we build a query, stored procedure, or function? For that matter, what are queries, stored procedures, and functions?
•More SQL functions, and how they help us navigate our Dynamics GP data.
The class will start out assuming attendees know nothing about SQL or programming and will quickly progress them to a point where they can effectively ask a complex question of their Dynamics GP database, as opposed to waiting for someone else to ask it for them.

After the basics, attendees will quickly advance to a point where simple reporting, data manipulation, or support needs needn’t wait on an IT resource to be available.

Audience: Anyone who wants to understand SQL

Level: Beginner

Prerequisites: An open mind and a positive attitude.

Preparation: 

•Students should bring an internet capable Windows laptop computer to the course.
•The detailed instructions for connecting and attending the class will be sent a week prior to class. 
•There will be short installation that will need to be completed, in order for you to have access to the training environment needed for labs and exercises.
•Your instructor will use a hands-on training environment.
