Introduction


In the previous chapters, we've looked at a number of recipes that touch on SmartLists. This powerful, user-friendly reporting tool has become a foundational feature in Dynamics GP. The underpinnings of most of the lookup windows, reminders, and favorites throughout the system rely on SmartLists. Since SmartLists are so easy to use, many users never delve deeper than the surface. In this collection of recipes, we'll dig deeper into SmartLists to see how to better leverage both their simplicity and their power.
