New feature in GP2013: Mass Depreciation Removal

This feature provides users with the ability to back out depreciation for all, or a group, of assets. The system currently has the functionality to reverse depreciation one asset at a time, which can be time consuming when the need arises to back out depreciation for a large number of assets.

Increase the number of password tries

By default in Dynamics GP, if you type your password wrong 3 times GP closes. This setting can be controlled in the Dex.ini file.

The setting is:
SQLNumLoginTries = number

The default is 3, setting this to -1 allows an unlimited number of tries. This doesn't change any SQL based lockout parameters, it simply keeps GP from closing after 3 tries.

Receivables Document Write-Off

Ever wonder why no matter what parameters are used, no documents are presented for write off in Write Off Documents (Sales>>Routines>>Write Off Documents). On the Customer Card, under the Options button, if Maximum Writeoff is set to zero, you won't be able to write off documents for this customer.
