Should You Update Dynamics GP?

If you plan on printing 1099 forms from within GP, then you will need this update. You will not be able to get by with the modifying the form in Report Writer. You’ll need the updated program code and the form change to print from within Microsoft Dynamics GP.

After the 2021 update is installed, if you have security access to a modified version of any of these 1099 Payables forms, make sure to print the original form versus a prior-year’s modified form, or you will not see the new changes in this update.

The update to GP2018 was released in October of 2019, and we’ve now had time to digest the changes. One of the major (and perhaps confusing) changes is that GP has adopted Microsoft’s ‘Modern Lifecycle Policy’ and will no longer use version numbers. So the official latest version is known as just ‘Dynamics GP’.
