Lessons Learned: CRM 4.0 Adapter for GP 10.0 http://www.rosebizinc.com/gpblog/2009/10/lessons-learned-crm-40-adapter-for-gp.html
We are excited about this new integration, so we jumped right in, and installed it on our production systems. Our systems engineer is a genius, and what follows are his comments related to his experience. Consider this an experiential addendum:
1. Must have GP 10 SP4 applied. (There are caveats to sp4 so be aware)
2. Must have at least rollup5 for CRM applied. (Rollup6 was out in Oct 2009 so I used rollup6)
3. Must have GPwebservices for GP10 sp4 and Management tools sp4 installed.
- Had issues with the GPwebSerice not showing up in Dynamics Security console.
- Ran a repair on the GPWebServices and the management tools and it resolved the issue.
4. Must have Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package ATL Security Update applied to same server GPwebservices is installed. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=766a6af7-ec73-40ff-b072-9112bab119c2#filelist
5. Must have domain service accounts created.…
A Critical Miss in CRM - GP Adapter http://www.vaidy-dyngp.com/2010/01/critical-miss-in-crm-gp-adapter.html
This is the first time I am working on CRM GP Adapter, and I am closely monitoring it being implemented and not working on it directly.
In our business scenario, we maintain different SOP Order Document IDs for different Departments and there by different running SOP Order Document Numbers. For instance, Sales Department Orders will have a Document ID as SALES and SOP Number Sequence will be something like SALES-0000001. Services Department Orders will have a Document ID as SERVS and SOP Number Sequence will be something like SERVS-0000001 and so on.
Incidentally, when I was working on CRM Order Integration to GP Sales Order, I was curious to know how the Sales Order in GP is created by using which Document ID and which running sequence number…

CRM and GP as a Bundle http://eonesolutions.blogspot.com/2010/01/crm-and-gp-as-bundle.html
I recently read a good article from Scribe Software on the challenges of integrating ERP's with Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
Link to it here. The white paper concentrates on Data Replication (e.g. keeping you customer list in two places), Data Synchronisation (e.g. Keeping all the phone numbers the same) and Process Integration (moving quotes from CRM to Orders in GP).
The short of this is that replicating data across any two systems is a challenge - but something that is handled pretty well by the SmartConnect templates as well as the Scribe Templates. All of this is good and an essential part of many CRM to GP integrations. But it is not sexy. It is not exciting. It is not inspiring.
While the GP/CRM bundle has to have all the features discussed above - this is not a 'selling feature' it is an 'expected feature'. AccPac, Sales Force, NetSuite all have solutions that Replicate…

CRM GP Adapter Series - Overview http://www.vaidy-dyngp.com/2010/06/crm-gp-adapter-series-overview.html
