Did you know… In some third party software applications, Management Reporter 2012 does not read all the data coming from MS DYNAMICS GP?

Are you using Management Reporter 2012 RU5 with GP Data Mart option or previous versions, coupled with ISV software that hits your GL table GL2000?  If so, you may experience an issue if one of your ISV’s creates a GL entry offsetting another, such as the example below:

JR Entry                                          Credit                                                 Debit

1029                                                   50                                                      50 (One line)

Instead of showing the entries correctly as exampled here:

JR Entry                                           Credit                                             Debit (2 lines)

1029                                                   50                                                        0

1029                                                   0                                                          50

In cases like these, Management Reporter only reads one side of the entry without reading the other side of it.

In this instance we had to re-install Management Reporter with GP legacy option to make it read all entries the correct way.

Microsoft currently does not support these types of GL entries with MR 2012 (that have the Data Mart option).  Hopefully, all ISV’s will comply with the MS Standard or that Microsoft will take care of these situations in the newer version of the Data Mart integration.

Hoping this information is useful!  Please reply with any comments, feedback or questions.
