As you probably already heard, Small Business Financials is getting retired and the final version is SBF 9.0. Microsoft Business Solutions introduced migration path to Dynamics GP 10.0 Business Ready, where you will receive reduced cost for choosing the migration. However we expect large number of Small Business Financials customers will just stay with their current version: 7.5, 8.0 or 9.0 simply to face economy hardship. In this publication we would like to overview Small Business Financials support options
1. Small Business Financials and Great Plains Dynamics GP similarities. Both ERP applications are written in Great Plains Dexterity, both are using Dex Report Writer reports: typically SOP Blank Invoice form with customer logo. Both applications are using Dynamics.dic, Dynamics.set and Dex.ini files and technologies. In the case of urgent problem, you could ask Great Plains Dynamics GP technical consultant to help you
2. Small Business Financials space limitation to 2 GB on MSDE 2000. SQL 2000 and its reduced version MSDE have DBA level procedures to shrink database and file. However first you should consider to purge Sales, Purchasing, AR, AP, and GL history. In certain cases DB transaction log grows indefinitely and consumes DB space to its 2GB limit
3. Small Business Financials Reporting. If you need something advanced, good example is Graphical AP check form, please be advised, that SBF doesn’t have Reports modification tools. What Great Plains Consultant typically does for you is this – (s)he takes your Report Package, brings it to Great Plains environment, modifies it in GP Report Writer, exports back to the RW package and this package is in turn imported in SBF
4. Small Business Financials Remote support. As this Small business ERP becomes sort of rarity, it is not really feasible to support it locally, and with such web sessions as gotomeeting, and webex, we believe that your should be satisfied with remote support quality
