I have installed the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 and it's working properly but I have some issues when I tried to configure the Analysis Cube for excel. My environment is Windows 2008 64bit Std. SQL Server 2008 64 bit. I was reading that this issue will happen when you have installed a older version of SQL tool. Could you help to identify my issue and how to solve it?. Regards, Jose Hi David, Thank you for your supporting.

Are you on a 64 bit operating system? Although Analysis Cubes supports installation to a 64 bit environment, the configuration wizard and install must be run from a 32 bit machine. 2. If you are running the install from a 32 bit machine, then does your target machine accept remote connections? By default, SQL Server does not allow remote connections, so you'll want to check that this machine does accept remote connections. 3. Do you have SQL Server 2008 R2 installed on your install environment? Even though you may be installing the cubes from another environment, the configuration wizard still checks to see if you have a valid install of GP and SQL Server on the install machine. Feel free to email us if you have any additional questions or issues! David Duncan dduncan@ibis.com Jose,

If you opt NOT to include all financial data from GP in the AC data warehouse, then your beginning balances will be incorrect. You must include all financial data to have correct beginning balances. Feel free to reach me at dduncan@ibisinc.com if you have questions about this! David Stephanie,

I faced an issue while executing the master SSIS packages. After calling microsoft support, the agent told that it was a known issue and provided a fix. However, the agent did not provide the password for the SSIS packages and made the fix himself. I have installed Analysis Cubes for GP 10.0 on SQL 2008 and 64 bit OS.

I am not aware of any pre-packaged set of Excel Reports for this product. I could be wrong, but I believe the reasoning for this boils down to Analysis Cubes being used best as a dynamic, ad-hoc reporting tool. In my opinion, one of the best values that can be gained from the Cubes lies in the ease with which reports can be created. This can often lead to new and interesting ways of looking at your data that you may have never considered before. David Felipe,

The main problem is that it requires people to build the reports from scratch. Is there a pre packaged set of excel reports for Analysis Cubes???
