Automate tasks with the Dynamics GP Macro Recorder

An author writing on the CAL Business Solutions blog stated that if your team spends hours every week entering the same customer information, running the same month-end reports, or processing the same batches over and over, Dynamics GP has a built-in tool that can help. 

The author wrote that the Dynamics GP Macro Recorder records the steps you take, such as keystrokes and data entry, and can replay them whenever you need. Although it's been part of Dynamics GP for years, many users overlook it because Integration Manager gets most of the attention, the author noted.

For repetitive, routine tasks, the Macro Recorder is often the quicker and easier option, according to the author. In the blog post, the author explained what the Macro Recorder is and how to create and run a macro in Dynamics GP. The author also provided information on what you can automate with Dynamics GP macros.
