Great Plains Reseller News: Autoposting Server for Dynamics GP

Microsoft Dynamics GP implementation in ecommerce or EDI (Electronic Document Interchange) environments often requires documents creation in Dynamics GP from external applications, such as e-commerce web site. 

We recommend you to make a research in the SDK and integrating tool, named eConnect.  eConnect creates, deletes and updates GP master records: customer, vendor, employee, GL account, address for customer or vendor to name few examples.  Also eConnect creates so-called work documents: Sales Order Processing Invoice, Sales Order, Purchase Order, GL transaction, Payroll Payment and Check, etc.  Please, note here, that these documents have work status, they are not posted and awaiting for your review and posting on the batch level.  It is often the requirements to post Great Plains batch automatically from ecommerce or EDI integration application ? and here you will get the limitation of eConnect ? it doesn’t have batch posting functionality and it probably should not due to GP architecture.  In order to post batches in GP you will need add-on GP Autopost
