Amber's Tips & Tricks
Hello everyone! There is a new show on the Food Network called Semi-Homemade Cooking (click here for show details). The basic premise of the show is that the host combines "fresh ingredients with specially selected store-bought items. The result? Mouthwatering meals and desserts, prepared in minutes, that taste like they were made from scratch."
The same concept can be applied to how you work in Microsoft Office and Microsoft Dynamics GP. Why start from "scratch" when Microsoft has so many wonderful templates available online for letters, certificates, invitations, flyers, and more. With a little bit of know how you can:
1. Download a template from Microsoft's Template Gallery by clicking here
2. Use the template to create a letter in Microsoft Dynamics GP using "Letter Writing Assistant".
3. Automatically create the letter, certificate, flyer or invitation for 1 or more customers, vendors, or employees.

Focus on ROI: Is Your Licensing Plan Working for You?
You walk into a restaurant; you look at the menu and discover two ways to purchase your meal. You can order your entrée, dessert, and drinks separately, and pay for each separately. Or, for a few dollars more, you can order a meal plan where you get what's in the first plan, but with the opportunity to get a couple of appetizers, three more entrées, and four more desserts and all your drinks for free.
You know that you're meeting friends, so you take the second option.
Seems like a no-brainer, right? In this installment of Focus on ROI, we'll look at how this scenario makes sense when choosing a licensing plan for Dynamics GP.
