Read MoreKitting and Assembly in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Two Separate Tools or One Item Card-Round 39
Round 39 of our Dynamics GP vs. Dynamics 365 Business Central Functionality Face-Off is for everyone who sells bundles: gift sets, starter packs, equipment kits, anything built from parts. Selling a bundle sounds simple. But behind the scenes, your ERP has to answer real questions. Do we build these ahead of time and stock them?…
Read MorePhysical Inventory Counts in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: One Entry Window or a Recording for Every Counter-Round 38
Round 38 of our Dynamics GP vs. Dynamics 365 Business Central Functionality Face-Off heads out to the warehouse floor with a clipboard: it’s physical inventory count day. Nobody loves count day. The shelves get counted, the numbers come back, and somebody has to key them all in and explain the differences. Both GP and Business…
Read MoreLot and Serial Tracking in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Set Every Item by Hand or Reuse One Tracking Code-Round 37
Round 37 of our Dynamics GP vs. Dynamics 365 Business Central Functionality Face-Off tackles a topic that keeps quality managers up at night: lot and serial number tracking. If you sell food, chemicals, medical supplies, electronics, or anything else that can be recalled, you already know the drill. Somebody calls. A lot is bad. Now…
Read MoreLanded Cost in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Build the Cost Groups or Add a Charge Line-Round 36
The price on the purchase order is never the whole story. By the time a pallet lands in your warehouse, you’ve also paid freight, insurance, maybe customs duties. If those costs don’t make it into your inventory value, your margins are lying to you — every item looks cheaper than it really is. Welcome to…
Read MorePrepayments in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Record the Money or Invoice the Deposit-Round 35
Deposits are everywhere in business. A customer wants custom work? You ask for money up front. A vendor has a long lead time? They want a check before they start. The question is how your ERP handles that money between the day it moves and the day the real invoice posts. Welcome to Round 35…
Read MoreCompany Consolidations in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: A Reporting Tree or a Consolidated Company-Round 34
If your business runs more than one company, someone has to answer a simple question every month: how did we do as a group? Getting to that answer means consolidating — rolling the numbers from every company into one set of financial statements. Welcome to Round 34 of our Dynamics GP vs. Dynamics Business Central:…
Read MoreIntercompany Transactions in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Log Into Every Company or Check the Inbox-Round 33
Run more than one company, and sooner or later one of them pays a bill that belongs to another. The holding company covers the insurance. The parent buys the software licenses everyone uses. Every one of those transactions has to hit two sets of books, stay in balance, and be traceable later. That’s intercompany accounting…
Read MoreMulticurrency in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Key the Rates or Subscribe to Them-Round 32
The moment your company buys from a vendor in Canada or sells to a customer in Europe, your ERP has a new job: tracking two amounts for every transaction. The euros on the invoice, and the dollars in your general ledger. Get the exchange rates wrong — or let them go stale — and your…
Read MorePositive Pay in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: Build the File or Pick the Format-Round 31
Check fraud never went away. Someone gets hold of your account number, prints a convincing check, and cashes it before anyone notices. Positive pay is the banking industry’s answer: you send your bank a list of every check you issued — number, amount, payee — and the bank refuses to clear anything that isn’t on…
Read MoreElectronic Vendor Payments in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: The File Format Project or the Export Button-Round 30
Fewer and fewer companies pay their vendors with printed checks. Electronic payments — ACH in the United States, EFT more broadly — are cheaper, faster, and harder to steal out of a mailbox. Both Dynamics GP and Dynamics 365 Business Central can build the payment file your bank wants. The difference is how much work…
Read MoreBank Deposits and Transactions in Dynamics GP vs. Business Central: The Checkbook or the Bank Ledger-Round 29
Every business moves money through the bank all day long: customer checks get deposited, service fees get recorded, funds hop from one account to another. Your ERP needs a home for all of that activity. In Dynamics GP, that home is the checkbook — a separate bank subledger with its own windows and its own…
