The new release of Dynamics GP streamlines approvals for payables and receivables, human resources, project expense and general ledger approvals.
Microsoft released Dynamics GP 2015, December 1. This is the latest version of Microsoft’s most scalable enterprise resource planning solution and features dozens of enhancements. In this post we will look at Dynamics GP 2015 approvals process improvements.
Dynamics GP 2015 includes more employee self-service functionality than previous versions, giving employees greater access to data. But greater access requires sophisticated approvals and workflow management. With Workflow 2.0, GP 2015 comes equipped with tools for simplified approvals so managers have more time to focus on processes that drive production and growth.
Here are a few of the improvements to approvals in Microsoft Dynamics GP 2015, now available for 30 day trial:
Project Expense
Project employee expense reporting in GP 2015 allows project accounting employees to generate expense reports for any of their assigned projects. It is also possible to assign employees to enter expense reports on behalf of other employees. Workflow approvals and task assignments are defined for expense reports. Conveniently, workflow actions are executed on the documents, from the Expense Entry window or from Navigation lists.
Human Resources
HR and Payroll pending approval navigation lists In Microsoft Dynamics GP 2015 create a single destination where managers can view and approve changes to employee records. With HR and Payroll workflow pending approval navigation lists, HR managers are able to approve and complete multiple tasks by checking the box and selecting the action to complete. The preview pane displays task details and there is a “GoTo” option to view the assigned task.
Payables and Receivables
Receivables and payables batch approval improvements in GP 2015 gives users the ability to process payables and receivables batches more efficiently. Batch Approval allows users to create workflow processes which the system requires to be completed before a defined document processes. The workflow status will appear in the window, allowing users to act directly from Receivables and Payables windows as well as from an email or from a Navigation List.
General Ledger
Improvements to general ledger batch approvals helps create workflow processes around general, clearing and budget transaction batches for a more streamlined process. As with the other modules, the workflow status appears on the window allowing action to be taken directly from the windows, from an email or from a navigation list.
