Latest release includes configuration and migration tools for Microsoft Dynamics GP 10, Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010, and Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013

• The Rapid Implementation Tools for Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0 and Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 and RapidStart Services for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 include two tools designed to shorten deployment time and enable greater Partner productivity by reducing the time required for routine implementation tasks. These tools are also designed to work with the Microsoft Dynamics Sure Step Methodology.
  
  The Rapid Configuration Tool for Microsoft Dynamics GP quickly configures core application setup data to meet specific business needs. By using one of thirteen available industry templates, or a customized configuration template created in Microsoft Office Excel 2010 and/or Microsoft Office Excel 2013, a new Microsoft Dynamics GP company can be configured easily within the intuitive user interface. Settings and data such as the chart of accounts, fiscal years, payment terms, shipping methods, taxes, core financial and distribution module setup, and more can be quickly set up using this tool. New to this release is the ability to select individual Setup Areas allowing configurations to proceed in a phased approach rather than an all or none approach when importing configuration data from another Microsoft Dynamics GP company.
