Accolade Publications

Does your firm use MS Dynamics GP for manufacturing? If so, I'll bet you have missed out on some of the many hidden strengths and features of the software package.

Just taking the MO Receipt Transaction, for example, users can manually or automatically assign serial or lot numbers to finished items. Last minute component additions or substitutions are easily recorded on the MO Receipt transaction! When a partial receipt is reported on an average cost item, the user can define exactly how much of the dollars placed into WIP are absorbed into the cost of the partial receipt, keeping the cost of inventory and ultimately the cost of goods sold at reasonable and accurate numbers.

The ability to automatically create purchase orders and manufacturing orders from an MRP analysis and manage those orders on schedule is phenomenally easy. And users with "where did that demand come from" have easy drill downs to the original sales order or inventory shortage.

Accolade has two books already out and a third one only a few weeks away that dive into the manufacturing components of GP... 

Manufacturing Cost Accounting covers the roll-up of costs through the manufacturing process explaining how costs travel through the application and how standard costs can be calculated. 

Product Engineering talks about creating inventory items for components and finished goods and building bills of materials and routers. All of the details of configuring the application to mirror your plant are covered as well as some interesting maintenance tools.

Shop Operations, due out by Convergence 2012, covers the issue, release, progress reporting, and finished goods receiving process for manufacturing orders. A special chapter cover Quick MOs and discusses their appropriate use versus a full MO.

You will find Accolade Publications, Inc., at Booth 2008 at Convergence 2012 in Houston. We will be on hand as years before to share the value of Accolade's Microsoft Dynamics ERP and Dynamics CRM user manuals and training materials. Will you be there?! If so, you can meet and ask questions of Accolade's publishing team and authors! 

Dynamics GP Business Consultant extraordinaire, Accolade's publisher, and author Richard L. Whaley will be on hand at our booth (Booth 2008). On Day Two and Day Three at Convergence, Richard will be hosting the SSRS Reporting Table in the Birds of a Feather sessions of Convergence 2012. Attendees are invited to bring their own questions about the SSRS Reporting System and ask Richard (author of the book Creating Reports with SSRS). The format of the session should provide an intimate setting with only a few people with similar issues at a roundtable. Notably, Richard has authored Accolade books, such as, Information Flow and Posting for Dynamics GP and The Dynamics GP Power User Handbook.

Find these books and other user manuals and training guides for Microsoft Dynamics AX, CRM, GP, NAV, and SL at The Accolade Library Bookstore.

As the premier event for the Microsoft Dynamics Customer and Partner business community, Convergence is your chance to make key business connections and to discover the full potential of Microsoft Dynamics solutions.
