GP2016 – Feature of the Day – Power BI Integration & Budget Import Enhancement

Posted on by

Another set of feature of the day posts reveal that Power BI is coming to GP.  Also we have got Budget Import enhancement. Links to the posts are below:

  • Duplicate Accounts Import Exception Report
  • Power BI Reports on Home Page – I would rather like to see Dynamics GP being added to the Power BI Connector Services. Don’t get me wrong. I love this feature, it’s great to have Power BI report widgets on GP home page. However, the ideal integration would be to see Dynamics GP Connector Service. I think that would possibly happen soon, considering the next feature.
  • Dynamics GP OData Service – This is going to be another important feature (HTML5 Web Client being the first one) that I have been waiting for. This will enable us to have an excellent Power BI integration. I am happy to see Power BI reports on GP Home Page, no doubt, but I am super excited about OData Service.
