Hands On with Microsoft Dynamics GP October 2019 Release: Install GP Add-in for Microsoft Word

Microsoft Dynamics GPThis post is part of the Hands On with Microsoft Dynamics GP October 2019 Release series where I am going hands on with the new version of Microsoft Dynamics GP.

The Microsoft Dynamics GP Add-in for Microsoft Word allows the Word Templates used for outputting vendor or customer documents to be amended and have new fields added to them. Things work best if you have both the Microsoft Dynamics GP client and Microsoft Word on the same computer, but this isn;t technically necessary as you could copy the exported Word Template between machines to make the changes and then transfer it back for import.

To install the add-in, launch the Microsoft Dynamics GP setup utility and, under the Additional Products heading, select Microsoft Dynamics GP Add-in for Microsoft Word:
