Management Reporter Failed reports Queue cleanup

If you ever come across an issue where you cannot remove the queued reports (failed) from queued status, follow the approach suggested here . In addition to this, enjoy the two tips below 1. If you wonder how you can connect to MR when away from a domain network, the best solution would be to connect to your domain through a vpn connection. Once it is connected through a vpn to your domain, it works the same way as you are within domain. 2. When you run the reports in MR Report designer and if you see the reports are just queued and not processing further to view the reports, then the culprit might be the Management Reporter Process service. Go to Start | Run | Services.msc, locate Management reporter process service and start the service.

Smart Search: Google for Dynamics GP

I did not test this product yet as I do not have one copy because Matt Landis at Dynamics Small Business (Landis Computers) is offering a free copy exclusive to partners at the convergence event and I’m not there at the event physically though I’m virtually present following the lovely updates, thanks to Twitterati. My first reaction when I saw Matt post on his blog on this smart product was speechless. I don’t know if he is using Google search for real but I’d say it outsmarts the Google search engine at least for retrieving Dynamics GP records. Ok. For those who didn’t get a chance to look at this smart search, I’d provide a brief introduction. Smart search for GP is an enhancement add in developed by Landis Computers (Dynamics Small Business) that will allow you do a search (smart search) for any keyword and get the results from all the GP modules with nicely organized tabs. As Matt tells us on his blog, the records are returned within a bit of seconds for a sizeable data. Now, L

Microsoft–Good Side of the support

This time, It is another Partner / Customer appreciation of the Microsoft Dynamics GP Technical support.It’s an appreciation call for the guys at Fargo / Redmond from Michael Johnson for their timely help by quickly (within 24 hours) mobilizing to produce a fix for his problem in Contract Administration.

Microsoft: Are You Listening?

Are you listening and doing something positive on Jennifer Kuntz? One could understand how much pain and frustration she had when you see her blog post taking a lot time in detailing her horrible experience with Dynamics GP Technical Support and her time in writing a comment on my blog post stressing further that no one yet has even contacted her. I’m posting her comments to my post on this here for the sake of readers. You are correct, I have not posted an update, the issue continues to be unresolved.I received an email shortly after I posted (unrelated, just a coincidence) further explaining that they will escalate the case I opened up since everyone seems confused on how to fix the Partner source website (it’s not Ops, it’s not VOICE, hmmm). I got the usual survey request after the case was closed as well where I indicated my displeasure – and that resulted in an email from Microsoft yesterday to me (“I noticed we were unable to meet your expectations”….) and asked if I was st
