Hands On With Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 R2 New Features: Duplicate Check Numbers Option Extended
This post is part of the Hands On With Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 R2 New Features series in which I am going hands on with the new features introduced in Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 R2 (which was released on the 2nd October). I reblogged the new features as Microsoft announced them along with some commentary of how I thought they would be received by both my clients and I. In this series, I will be hands on with them giving feedback of how well they work in reality.
The fourteenth new feature is Duplicate Check Numbers Option Extended.
This feature sees the Checkbook Maintenance (Financial area page » Cards » Chechbook) option to allow or not allow Duplicate Check Numbers extended to other windows. This means that if this option is not marked, duplicate checks are not allowed in these three windows. Previously, this option only applied to Payables checkbooks but now it includes:
- Bank Transaction Entry
- Payroll Manual Checks
- Miscellaneous Checks
If you try to create a check/cheque in any of three windows listed above, the following error message will be produced:
While small, this new feature can prevent errors by preventing the same cheque number being used more than once.

Have a GP Question? Get Help from Your Peers in These Dynamics GP Forums
Whether you’re new to Dynamics GP, or have been using it for years, occasionally, you probably come across a question or issue you’re not sure how to solve. When that happens, you usually have two choices. One, Google your question until you find the answer published on a webpage hidden somewhere in the depths of the Internet. Or, if you don’t have the time, energy or patience to find the answer by searching online, you can always ask your Microsoft partner. And, while I’m sure your Microsoft partner will be more than happy to help you resolve the issue, we all understand sometimes you would rather try to fix the problem yourself, instead of enlisting outside help. For those instances, I would like to suggest another helpful resource.
Because Dynamics GP has been a popular business management system for decades now, a vibrant online community has sprung up around it. Somewhat overlooked parts of this online community are the Dynamics GP forums where users can go to ask each other questions and get the help with their software. So, today I thought I would take a few moments and introduce you to a few of the available online forums. Hopefully they prove useful to you the next time you find yourself faced with a Dynamics GP question you don’t know the answer to.

Editing Your Professional Selfie
I’m a big fan of having a good professional picture for LinkedIn, Microsoft Teams, and other work-related online presence tools; as I’ve written about before. Many times people have pictures of themselves they like, but perhaps don’t have a professional background (because of the beach scene behind you).
Recently I’ve run across a couple of tools that within a few minutes can edit that vacation picture into a professional selfie.
Background Removal
I’ve tried to do background removal before in Photoshop, and that experience made me hate Photoshop with the fire of a thousand suns. But I found a free online tool called https://www.remove.bg/ that does the background removal automagically, only keeping a person in the shot! The process is simple, just upload your photo and download the result, sans background.
Background Addition
Now that you’ve removed that beach scene, you need to replace it with something, so you need a photo editor. (No, I’m still not using Photoshop. Still hate it and it’s not free.) For this step there’s a free online photo editor called LunaPic https://www.lunapic.com/.
Upload the photo from the Background Removal step, then navigate to Draw menu > Background Tool.
Then click on “use our patterns or colors“.
Now pick a color. Black, white, and grey are all excellent options. Click the Apply button when you’re happy with the color and save the photo.
Original Photo
Updated Photo
Here’s the result after removing the background and replacing it with a black one.
More Colors
One other idea I had for colors is to use your company’s branding colors for the background. Here’s the same image as above using SAGlobal Blue.
Cropping
LunaPic also has a simple cropping tool (Edit > Simple Crop Tool)– you’ll want to do a square crop and your eyes should be approximately 1/3rd the way down from the top.
Additional Examples
Here are some other photos taken with various cameras and settings showing the possible results. I tried to use some more complex background examples to show the results – in same cases it’s not perfect (my hair is losing some “spike”), but in general I feel this works quite nicely for a small profile picture.
I’m a dork.
Now I’m a dork with piercing eyes.

Good luck; hope to see your smiling faces online!
Ease Navigation, Edit the Site Map in Dynamics 365
There is a standard sitemap for all Dynamics 365 instances, but chances are the default sitemap does not scream ease of navigation for your organization. It is important that Users can easily find the entities they need without hunting column by column, and more importantly, they see what they need to see, and ONLY what they need to see.
Dynamics 365 provides the ability to modify the standard sitemap without coding, allowing everyday users to easily modify the layout, making it a better fit for your business. You will need either the System Administrator or System Customizer role to perform the following actions.
To customize the sitemap, simply go to Settings > Customizations > Customize the System.
You will find multiple sitemaps under Client Extensions, there is typically one which contains all apps, and then others which are each tied to a specific app.
In this case, we are using the default one which is labeled “Site Map”.
There are three components that you can easily drag and drop to create/modify your sitemap. Once you have each of the components added, you can click on each one and configure the properties for each component. And if necessary you can drag and drop the components around to change their order and/or the column they display in. You can also remove components which are not needed.
Tips:
1. You will need to check the Show Groups checkbox to enable the Group before dragging the Group to your sitemap.
2. You can choose different Types of components for a subarea, and once you choose an option, irrelevant fields in the pane will be greyed out.
If you need assistance or have any questions when configuring your sitemap, please feel free to reach out to our support team at support@websan.com. We are always happy to help you increase the productivity of your Dynamics 365 environment!
