Okay, so my new year’s resolution has completely gone astray
as I have been absent from this blog for
way way way too long. So here I am,
coming out of the post-year end haze, and hope to get back in the habit. So, I
thought I would start out with some easy stuff that I can share in terms
Dynamics GP 2015 and the exciting things
out there for those of you that are considering upgrading (BTW, our new
implementations are going to on to GP 2015 and we have started upgrading folks
as well).
This is a super exciting one, because it eliminates all of the time consuming options we had (reversing stuff manually in the tables or sending the data to Microsoft or yadda yadda yadda).
So why is this exciting?
Well, we all know that GP let’s you post to the most recent historical
year, right? So, here in 2015, we can
post to 2014 (if it is closed) but not 2013.
So, let’s say that we accidentally closed 2014 and we really do need to
post to 2013 (this sort of thing happens most commonly during implementation,
when you are loading several years of history and closing years in succession).
Now, you can click this lovely little button…
And you can opt to reopen the most recently closed
year. Exciting stuff. Always make a backup first, of course! All users must be out of the GP when you do
this. Equally exciting is that it will
also move analytical accounting information (if you are using it) back to the
open year as well. Once you run the
reverse, it is recommended that you reconcile (Utilities-Financial-Reconcile)
all open years starting with the oldest.

I was going to test this yesterday on a test company at a client. I was very surprised that EVERYONE has to be out of GP for this to work - not just this company. That seems unnecessary, I'm curious why they did it that way!
