==Macros==
Great Plains was one of the first accounting packages with capability to record and play back ]. Macros are saved in .MAC files in the ]. The .MAC files are editable text files. Macro files are very different from the VBA files found in the Microsoft Office products. Dynamics GP macros cannot make decisions, but merely play back keystrokes recorded by a user. Microsoft Dynamics can also have VBA functionality attached to forms and reports to carry out decisions.

==Modules==
Microsoft Dynamics GP is organized in Series, each of which contains several modules. The typical Series are Financial, Sales, Purchasing, Inventory, Project, Payroll, Manufacturing, Company and System. The last two contain all the necessary modules to configure various company-wide and system-wide options. Each Series involves a full cycle of transactions for that particular Series, for example, the Sales Series implements the ]. In addition to the typical "out-of-the-box" modules, Microsoft's community of Independent Software Vendors (ISV) has developed a number of add-ons and verticals, all generally referred to as Third Party applications, which complement or enhance the existing functionality of the application. Some of these are also written in Dexterity, and so look and function in the same way as Dynamics GP standard modules.

===Analytics===
]: a corporate performance management solution for the Microsoft Dynamics ERP systems allows easy creation and consolidation of financial statements using a "building block" approach with Rows, Columns, Trees and Report Definitions and the familiar user interface used by Microsoft Office applications.

]: extracts real-time data from General Ledger to create and manage accurate budgets and plans which can be shared across the management team via a Web-based interface. Easy to learn: has the look and feel of a spreadsheet.

](SSRS): offers customizable reports for Financial, Sales, Purchasing and Manufacturing. Reports are run from ] and can be rich with charts and graphs for sharing across the organization or with designated suppliers or contractors. SSRS is often used to produce dashboard type charts for executive management.

SmartList Builder: easy to use, yet powerful query tool to output data (no matter where records reside) based on virtually any specified criteria into a user-friendly format for screen view, for print or for saving in Excel or ] (auto-formatted). Combine and link data from up to 32 separate tables, including third-party dictionaries. Many common data-analysis functions are available in pre-configured SmartList objects that can be downloaded from Microsoft.

] is widely used in building and designing reports with Microsoft Dynamics GP.

===Customization Tools===
Customization: comprehensive customization tools to enable ] developers to create real-time, transactional connections between Microsoft Dynamics GP and other applications and expansion potential for new features and functionality.

Integration: integrate and incorporate data with a high degree of safety, flexibility and speed from any source, even those not based on Microsoft platforms. Uses a mix of proprietary Microsoft technologies, such as Microsoft ] Server, ] (COM), the Microsoft .NET Framework, and ] (MSMQ); as well as industry-standard technologies such as ] and XML.

==Community==
The GP community consists of professionals, typically employees of Dynamics Partners, End-users and MS MVP's (]).

The Dynamics GP User Group () is the largest, user-led community for companies using the software.

==Events==
'''GPUG Summit'''

is held each fall and is an independent, user-led conference

'''GPUG Amplify'''

is robust event for Dynamics GP users, designed to improve attendee skills around reporting, leadership, and industry best practices.

'''reIMAGINE'''

is the only conference dedicated to the technical learning and educational opportunities of Microsoft Dynamics GP Partners.

==Enhancement==
Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 is enhanced with a web client.The web client is powered by Silverlight technology.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blogs.msdn.com/b/developingfordynamicsgp/archive/2012/09/13/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2013-beta-download-available-on-partnersource.aspx|title=Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Beta Download available on PartnerSource|work=msdn.com|accessdate=29 December 2016}}</ref><br />
Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016 updates the web client to HTML5, removing the Silverlight dependency and allowing cross-platform and mobile access.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://community.dynamics.com/gp/b/dynamicsgp/archive/2016/05/31/microsoft-dynamics-gp-2016-html5-web-client-introduction|title=Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016 HTML5 Web Client Introduction|work=dynamics.com|accessdate=12 April 2017}}</ref>

Microsoft Dynamics GP 2018 had updates to Workflow (V4.0), Document Attach, Power Suite (PowerApps and Power BI) and core Finance & HR community.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://community.dynamics.com/gp/b/tidestonesolutionsgpblog/archive/2017/04/21/dynamics-gp-roadmap|title=|last=|first=|date=|website=Microsoft Communities|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}}</ref>

==Criticism==
Microsoft Dynamics GP does not integrate with Microsoft ], which precludes ] in deployments where Active Directory could otherwise be used to authenticate Dynamics GP users, and necessitates maintenance of separate SQL Server ] specifically for Dynamics GP.<ref>{{cite newsgroup | author = Melissa Amundson | title = Active Directory | date = 2006-11-03 | newsgroup = microsoft.public.greatplains |message-id= vlsEblK4FHA.2904@TK2MSFTNGXA01.phx.gbl | url = http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.greatplains/msg/3944f1e9624cc1af?hl=en& | accessdate = 2006-12-27}}</ref> This has been overcome by some users with third party modules, such as Config AD.<ref></ref>
