If you are Great Plains customer and deploy GP ERP in your organization's accounting backoffice, you probably forgot that there was an upgrade to version 7.5 and later to 8.0 so smooth and painless. Great Plains Version Update to 9.0 was relatively simple, but its role in the upgrade wizard has been increased, and if you are Great Plains consultant, you're kind of feeling that you lost control of former upgrade process. Well, Microsoft Dynamics GP version 10.0 upgrade is a bit moreComplex with several errors. If you are planning to upgrade to version 10, we would like to share with you our experience:
1. 64-bit dilemma. workstation part at this time eConnect, November 2007 is not supported on Windows 64-bit, including Vista 64th Also FRx Sysdata folder should reside on 32-bit version as well. These 64-bit calculation boom appears to be more of a problem for the software maker: So far, the new laptops and desktop computers are 32-bit or even with Windows comes with Windows VistaXP 32 bit. Microsoft SQL Server 2005 appears on Windows 2003 64-bit convenient server, but when we go to page MS workstation. NET components and COM + objects (WAS part and eConnect eConnect Runtime) - the problem manifested. Plus Microsoft Dynamics GP Business Portal is not supported (at this time) 64-bit
2. GP New Security Architecture. GP Security is redesigned and this is a good sign for the ERP Security Administrators: now you have, or you can create using existingTasks (usually small) and roles (groups of tasks). Roles exist at the product level, Dynamics GP DYNAMICS.DIC Kern, Project Accounting, Fixed Assets, etc. If something should be revised and completely redesigned from the ground, expect, extra work to add new components make use of consultants and GP time, but Unexpectedly, it was a surprise upgrade, described in the next ball
3. GP Security Upgrade failure. In the upgrade manual that you can be sure that all existing user is securityUsers are the roles and tasks (with the username in roles and tasks descriptions, which is not the best thing to have, probably). But even this bridge is not in the version of security update process. Microsoft explains that transferred in order to maintain the security, you should remove spaces from Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 workstation installation folder (where the distances from standard installation or upgrade wizard) are proposed. I hope to be with GP 10.0 Service Pack 1, those pesky questionssolved, but at the moment, please keep in mind and try to be expected and the issues at hand
4. Other known problems: SY02700 table, this one located in Dynamics database, we heard reports of problems upgrading table update failure
5. Purchase Order Processing upgrade seems to be: POP-line work and the historical tables were aware that the problem makers in GP upgrade to 9.0. With version 10.0, the problem seems to be solved
6. Integration Manager IM.MDB upgrade issue. If youupgrade from GP 7.5 to 10, then we have failed to upgrade because it can be converted to queries and query relations, but goals and objectives of assignments are not known
7. Service Pack 1 waiting recommendation. We are optimists by nature, our service, but we encourage you to decide on the level of acceptable risk. Plus, if you apply on GP 9.0 with Service Pack 3, you can not upgrade to 10.0, released by GP 10 SP1
