Note: This script is hardcoded to pull from the DYNAMICS database. If your system databases for Dynamics GP is something different, you will need to edit the script and change the DYNAMICS call to whatever your system database is called. For your reference, it is in the script in 9 different spots.
Note: These templates are designed to be a starting place for your reporting needs. While we try to make them as accurate as possible, we always recommend you check them with your data as we don’t guarantee their results. Differences in how data is entered and used in Microsoft Dynamics GP can produce different results with these templates.
