SmartLists are designed for individual users to tailor reporting to their needs. This is important because users have the ability to save their unique SmartLists and make these available to be reused over and over again.
Default SmartLists are represented by an asterisk and can be customized by moving fields around, adding or removing fields, filtering the data to be returned, and sorting data in interesting ways. However, the time and effort required to do all of that is lost if a user can't save and reuse these unique settings. Saved SmartLists are called Favorites and they are the focus of this recipe.
In this recipe we'll set up a SmartList and save it as a Favorite:
Click on the SmartList button on the menu bar at the top or select Microsoft Dynamics GP from the top and click on SmartList.
Select Financial, then Accounts from the list on the left.
Click on the Account Number column heading to sort by Account Numbers...
