What Waldo taught me about GP Navigation Training...

GP - NavigationGP Tips and Tricks
Written By Amber Bell

what-waldo-taught-me-about-gp-navigation-trainingWhenever I work with a new GP user, I can tell that they are overwhelmed by all the links to Cards, Reports, Transactions, Inquiries, Utilities, and Setup. By the time they start looking at the options for Lists, and toolbars, shortcuts and reminders...they look downright dizzy!!Now, what does this have to do with Waldo and what does that have to do with GP?Here is my point:

  • Where's Waldo works because there is so much on the page that doesn't matter...that it takes a long time for your eye to figure out how to filter down to the little guy in the red stripped shirt.
  • GP makes people crazy because by default, there are so many windows, reports, menus and icons that show...that you cannot find the window you need.

I recorded a video for CAL Business Solutions Inc. that will help you clean up your GP pages:How to Simplify the Dynamics GP Home Page for New UsersUsing GP should make your life easier! I hope this tip saves you some stress and helps you find the windows you really need to access!

I have over 20 years experience training Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains) clients across the United States. I previously worked with amazing Microsoft Dynamics GP partner companies in California and Connecticut.

I started my company, Training Dynamo, in order to revolutionize the way that Microsoft Dynamics GP training is delivered. I believe that training can be fun, exciting and rewarding. I know the best way I can help the Microsoft Dynamics GP community is to help Consultants by taking away the mystery of what to cover on each training session. I am on a mission to give Microsoft Dynamics GP partners and consultants the tools they need to succeed!! I have GP training materials available for resale and can provide training and tips to help them inspire their clients to see the potential of using Microsoft Dynamics GP to unify and grow their businesses!
