Native PDF Support
In order to generate PDFs from Dynamics GP, Adobe Acrobat Pro must be installed. It's expensive, and an administrative hassle, to have to license this for users just to be able to print and email PDFs from Dynamics GP. Microsoft Word has had the ability to natively generate PDFs for years now....
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.

Ability to scan a document into Dynamics GP as PDF
I looked into the help file within Microsoft Dynamics GP and it stats the following: “The document is saved in a Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format.” Customers would like the functionality to scan as PDF files.
With the Lifecycle of Dynamics GP at this time, this suggestion would be out of scope.

Improve User Activity Tracking
Need to have simple auto user activity tracking for insert delete and update. Currently we have to activate user activity tracking but it is bit cumbersome to get data. By default system should track all those with simple activation. Reports should be very user friendly to understand what was ...

Ability to setup Users from Active Directory or Azure Active Directory
Currently, users must be manually setup in Dynamics GP and link to AD or AAD if using web client. It would nice if we could simply have a list of users from AD or AAD and be able to mark the ones we want automatically configured in GP. I envision a window listing all AD or AAD accounts /groups wi...
Best regards.
Email Settings to Link to Address ID's
In playing with the email document settings to meet a specific client need, it seems to be lacking somewhat in how you can send emails for specific document types. This is a discussion I started in the forum: https://community.dynamics.com/gp/f/32/p/279898/800443#800443 Essentially, I think yo...

Ability to compress PDF when using Doc Attach
As our clients are using Doc Attach more and more, their databases have been growing at a much faster rate, as is to be expected. However, when clients have their GP environment hosted in Azure, or other cloud services, it is not always easy and/or financially possible to add extra diskspace (...

DATETIME > DATE, TIME, DATETIME2
The DATETIME SQL data type is deprecated. Please look into replacing use of DATETIME with DATE, TIME or DATETIME2, as applicable.
Thanks for the suggestion.
With the Lifecycle of Dynamics GP at this time, this suggestion would be out of scope.

Provide an option for Doc Attach to store documents on external location (not inside the DB)
The Doc attach feature that was introduced in GP 2016 is a nice and welcome addition, but for some customers it bears a heavy change on their system resources. Some Databases have grown exponentially since users started to attach documents on a daily basis and in some cases a company DB has incre...
