I know that the world’s eyes are on Australia and bushfires at the moment, but we must not forget other charities that need our continuing support. Canteen Australia does a fantastic job supporting youth who are affected (directly or indirectly) by cancer, as we personally learnt in 2017. We need your assistance to help us raise some funds for this great organisation.

#MSDynGP Dynamics 365 BC is not an upgrade from Dynamics GP
This week a forum thread on the GPUG Open Forum caught my attention and I felt I had to respond. The topic was the future of Microsoft Dynamics GP and whether moving to Dynamics 365 is an option.
The fact that the question was asked again has prompted me to write another article to help get the correct message out to the Microsoft Dynamics GP community.
#Perth: Innovating Workplace Productivity with Microsoft MVPs
If you live in Perth and work in the tech industry (or don’t work in the tech industry and want something to do), please come and join some of the Perth based Microsoft MVPs for a free community event on Saturday 25th May 2019.
This all day event (8;30 am to 5:00 pm) will be held at the Civic Administration Centre, City of Canning in Cannington, and will be an exciting day with seven presentations and a Q&A panel session to finish.
Developing for Dynamics GP Blog is dead, long live the Developing for Dynamics GP Blog
This story starts back in July 2008 while I was a Microsoft employee attending some developer training in Fargo run by my friend Steve Gray (of 4Penny and DynDeveloper fame).
After seeing Steve post some tidbit of technical knowledge to his blog, I decided to create my own blog so that I could publish articles then reference these articles when responding to forum posts. This was how the Developing for Dynamics GP Blog started.
Knowledge Base Article References
The first work in the process of Saving the Developing for Dynamics GP Blog has started with creation of two new pages on this blog with links to reference Knowledge Base (KB) Articles.
These pages consolidate all the KB Articles from the six Articles & Links pages from the Developing For Dynamics GP blog.
Saving the Developing for Dynamics GP blog
Many of you have probably read an article or two from my previous blog on Microsoft’s MSDN, the Developing for Dynamics GP blog. This blog was created in July 2008 and had published 1,130 articles by the time I left Microsoft in October 2014.
Even though there has been no new content added to the blog since I left, the blog is still one of the most popular Microsoft Dynamics GP related blogs. In fact, the Worldmaps tracking shows that the site is ranked 4th in the leaderboard and gets over 20,000 hits a month.
Microsoft is planning to deprecate MSDN blogs by the end of March and I am working to ensure that this valuable resource is not lost to the community.
Life Cycle for CanTeen – OnRoad Ride 2019
Hello everyone for 2019.
I cannot believe that January is almost over and this is my first post for the year. It shows that I have been really busy working on the upcoming Build 26 of my flagship product, GP Power Tools. More details in another article soon.
Anyhow, this article is not work related. I would like to ask for your support for a great fundraising project that is very close to home.
