"Print to Screen" Size Change
Why oh WHY do I have to resize the print preview window every time I run a report to the screen? This seems like a simple fix and would save 1000's of click and drags... maybe even every day! :)
Speed up GP RECONCILE and CHECK LINKS
Issue: Check links and reconcile takes far too long to run
If the business logic were pulled out of dexterity and these were re-implemented in SQL using set based operations, this would transform a very painful aspect of running GP on large databases.

Allow unattended scheduling of CHECKLINKS and RECONCILES
The ability to get GP to run a check links and reconcile automatically via a schedule would transform the admin of larger sites.

Interface GP with 64-bit Outlook
Have both clients work with 64-bit Outlook instead of having to depend on the wonky and completly inadequate GP mail client. A lot of email capabilities related to the contacts and formatting is lost.

Thus, if a user(s) need to email from GP they have to remove the two factor authentication. This could lead to some IT ...

Disable system print dialog box when printing a Word Template
When printing a Word Template to printer it automatically goes to the Windows default printer. This is because GP tells itself to print to Word, but cannot tell Word what printer to select. If it is not possible to bridge the gap between Word and GP to allow the printer to be changed from defau...

Fix Home Page Bug
Something happens in GP where users are no longer able to customize their home page. I believe this problems stems from missing records in SY08100. When missing records are restored the user can customize the home page again.
Hi Mike,
Do you know how to recreate this bug? If so, enter it as a support issue (no charge) and hopefully we can get it fixed. We have seen the issue happen but not consistently enough to know how to recreate it.

Allow resize of all windows
This has been a problem with GP for decades. Many of the windows do not allow you to resize them properly. For instance some windows with long lists of items, you can not make the window larger. When you do the grid of rows do not get larger with the window. Not a good user experience.
