If you create multicurrency payables (PM) transactions using eConnect, and you are passing in the distributions manually (by setting CREATEDIST to 0), you may have encountered the same issue I encountered today. When the transaction was created, eConnect also (correctly) added in a ROUND distribution, to account for 0.01 cents worth of FX related rounding on the transaction. Unfortunately, eConnect did not populate the distribution with an account.

If you run Dynamics GP and have more than a handful of companies, I am sure you have felt the pain of installing or upgrading a 3rd party product, and then having to log in to each company as “sa” to complete the install process.

Today, I thought I would spend a little time explain how to read a Dexterity Script Profile to resolve a performance issue. To demonstrate this I will use a support case I had where the customer was intermittent long delays when clicking on the checkbox on the Apply Sales Document window.
