What happens to payroll tax updates after Dynamics GP end of life

On the Argus Consulting Group blog, Stephen Tanner wrote that if your company uses Microsoft Dynamics GP to process payroll, December 31, 2029, is an important date to keep in mind. That's when Microsoft plans to stop providing tax updates for the system. 

However, he noted that it's still unclear what options companies will have after that date. He added that he expects Microsoft partners and other software vendors to offer tax updates through subscription services, although few details are available yet. 

In his post, Tanner explained why companies need to start planning now rather than wait until Microsoft stops providing payroll tax updates.

Making changes to Dynamics GP while prepping for a future move: implementing a new approval process

An author writing on the Syvantis Technologies blog stated that companies planning to move from Dynamics GP to Dynamics 365 Business Central don't have to wait until they switch systems to improve their approval processes. They can start making changes while they continue using Dynamics GP.

The author noted that companies should first decide how they want their approval processes to work, including who needs to approve requests, when additional approvals are necessary and what happens when someone rejects a request. Dynamics GP includes built-in workflow features that can help companies manage approvals and prepare employees for the move to D365BC.

In the blog post, the author explained that companies can make the move easier by improving and documenting their approval processes now, rather than waiting until they switch systems.
