From the GP Blogs: How Check Links Work; The Value of Project Macros; VBA's Shift+F11 Function

How Check Links Work to Verify Integrity: In a characteristically thorough post, Mariano Gomez, the Dynamics GP Blogster, walks us through the beginnings of GP, the path to Microsoft Dexterity, and ultimately how Check Links work: "Check Links are entire procedures designed to analyze and remove any suspect records based on how tables are related in the application's dictionary... Check Links performs validations to make sure every record that is part of an atomic document (for example, a customer record, a purchase order, a sales order, an RM transaction, etc.) is valid within the context of that document. The check links algorithms sweep through the records in every table that is not the main table of a table group, then compare to the records in the main table. If there is any missing corresponding record in the main table, for the records currently being processed, these records in the table being processed are removed. For example, invoice line items cannot subsist without an invoice header record; invoice distributions, cannot subsist without a header record."

"Many of you may already realize that GP support has a set of macros, one for Customers and one for Vendors, that will run ...
