This 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.

Over the last few posts, I’ve installed the Microsoft Dynamics GP web client and it is now time to test it to ensure it is working correctly. To do this, open your web browser and navigate to the fully qualified URL you set during the installation.

In my example, as I am using a selg-signed SSL certificate, this is the fully qualified domain name of the server on which the session central service is installed:
