On May 2nd, 2016 Microsoft released their all new, and well anticipated Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016. Below we have outlined the top features that we are most excited about to bring to our partners and customers.

All-in-one document view for sales & inventory transactions

In Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016, you can now open the Sales All-in-One View window while viewing a customer record in master record windows such as the Customer Maintenance window. Your most recent documents will display in the window on its own. You may also skip to see the next set of five transactions by using the navigation buttons under each column.

Support for additional browsers & mobile devices

The user interface for Microsoft Dynamics GP Web Client will now include support across multiple browsers and devices including Internet Explorer, Edge, Safari & Chrome as well as Android and iPad tablets.

Project accounting enhancements

Accounting Documents such as invoices or receipts may be directly attached to employee expense transactions from the PTE Employee Expense Entry Window. These attachments will also be visible in Payables Management after the transaction has been posted to that module.

Business Intelligence enhancements

In Microsoft Dynamics GP, you can now seamlessly import and export SmartLists from SmartList Designer from one install to the other. Customers can also use this to export and import SmartLists across different sites or divisions.  Another Business Intelligence enhancement that we are excited for is the ability to export numbers into Excel as numbers rather than exported as text. As some may not know, in older versions of Dynamics GP, exporting numbers into excel as numbers was not possible as it would format the numbers as text.

Financial enhancements

When importing a budget from Excel, an exception report will mark accounts that have not yet been set up in General Ledger as well as finding any duplicates you may have in your import. You may also give more than one user access to Analytical Accounting whereas before only one user was allowed granted access.
