Configuring Distributed Processing in Dynamics GP Most accounting systems can only operate on a single server, while Dynamics GP can be distributed across multiple servers. Larger organizations that use Dynamics GP can increase speed and productivity just by adding additional servers to accommodate increasing volumes of transactions. Companies that use two-tier based accounting systems are limited to the performance provided by just one file server. Another benefit of distributed processing is that workstation resources are freed up, thereby allowing users to work faster, which increases employee productivity. When you consider that a ten-minute increase in staff productivity each day amounts to a savings of more than 40 hours each year per staff member, you can better appreciate the efficiencies of this type of technology. Dynamics GP also supports load balancing, which enables the system to automatically redirect processing from busy servers to available servers as required. Web Browser Access - A recent trend among top accounting solutions has been the introduction of systems that allow employees to access the accounting system using a common web browser. Dynamics GP offers a web browser solution called the business portal. Browser-enabled systems reduce the cost and complexity of setting up user desktops, and permit organizations to support a single common access environment, regardless of whether users are on site using the local area network or accessing the system while traveling via the Internet. The screen below presents the Dynamics GP web browser portal that provides users with secure, encrypted access to the complete Dynamics GP accounting system from any location in the world.
