Microsoft Dynamics GP
(formerly Microsoft Business Solutions Great Plains) is a
comprehensive business-management solution built on the highly
scalable and affordable platform of Microsoft technologies. It
offers a cost-effective solution for managing and integrating
finances, e-commerce, supply chain, manufacturing, project
accounting, field service, customer relationships, and human
resources.
Microsoft Dynamics GP
works with and like other Microsoft products that are well known
throughout businesses worldwide. That means people across your
organization can use skills and products that they already know like
a web browser, Microsoft Office System products, and Microsoft SQL
Serve to access and communicate information managed within the
system. It's easy to deploy and configure. In addition, with its
modular approach, you can license only the functions you currently
need, with the option of adding users and additional capabilities in
the future.
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0
enables everyone in your organization to drive business success by
streamlining business processes. Your people and teams can succeed
in a highly collaborative work environment by sharing files and
information, bridging communication between your employees,
customers, and partners. Your people can also work faster and
smarter when working with a user interface that is designed for how
people really do work.
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 helps to ensure consistency, accuracy,
and tighter controls across your business with automated approval
workflows. Workflows can be set up to fit the unique needs of your
business process.

enhanced search capabilities across your organization. And you can
be confident in the integrity and confidentiality of critical
information with improved security features.
Financial
Management
Microsoft Dynamics financial management tools present many
ways to report, analyze, and publish financial information.
Use the powerful analytical tools in your business
management solution to ascertain business performance. Watch
the business performance of key performance indicators
(KPIs) on your intranet portal, streamlined for the benefit
of business executives. Export information into a
spreadsheet for further analysis. And access feature-rich,
flexible report creating capabilities to present business
information in the best format for your audience.

Illustration:
Portal applications for Microsoft Dynamics are just one example of
functionality that can give employees and partners easy access to
information and tasks. So they can monitor financial performance and
operations status, and make informed decisions.
• When you implement Microsoft Dynamics solutions for financial
management and integrate them with your business database and
reporting application, you can increase the level of intelligence in
your business. Use advanced reporting and analytical capabilities to
gain relevant insight into any aspect of your operation. Plan for
the future based on a solid understanding of business events and
trends. And establish a meaningful, competitive business strategy.
• Regulatory compliance is a significant concern for many
businesses. Compliance can present challenges because of its cost
and complexity. Even if regulation doesn't apply to your
organization, you might want to do business with companies or in
markets that are subject to regulation. Microsoft Dynamics financial
management solutions enable your managers to implement and
demonstrate effective compliance processes and provide the reports
and documentation required in doing so.
Analytics and Reporting
Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 contains more than 75 pre-established
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services reports and more than 200
Office Excel 2007 reports with refreshable data. The reports give
people the data they need to make confident decisions. And, whether
they're working in Microsoft Dynamics GP or another application,
employees can store, launch, and view reports through Office
SharePoint Server Report Libraries. Dynamics GP taps into the most
powerful reporting, analysis, and budgeting tools
available—providing real-time insight into the critical information
needed for smarter, faster business decisions.

Reporting Services reports.
Business Portal
Built on Microsoft .NET technologies, Microsoft Dynamics Business
Portal integrates with Microsoft Dynamics GP, so data and processes
can be accessed from a Web-based portal. This lets you extend the
appropriate applications, information, and processes to employees,
customers, and partners across the enterprise, based on their unique
roles.

Illustration: Provide employees and partners with secure, browser-based access to
consolidated financial information, customer data, inventory
queries, purchasing reports, and much more.
Integration with widely-familiar applications
Microsoft Dynamics GP works like and provides a high level of
integration with other widely-familiar tools, such as Microsoft
Office System and Microsoft SQL Server. This allows people across
your organization—as well as business partners—to use skills they
already have to adopt new processes. It also expedites data sharing
across applications. For example, employees can view and share
Microsoft Dynamics GP data from within Microsoft Office
applications, or view budgeting, planning, and reporting from a Web
browser. And because all of the components are integrated,
information is automatically shared across applications. This helps
eliminate time wasted on redundant administrative tasks.
