Using Microsoft Dynamics GP Rapid Implementation Tools to Export/Copy/Backup Setup Between Companies

Guys,

I got an interesting question from one of my friends about this subject and thought its good to share how to utilize such feature in Microsoft Dynamics GP.

First of all you will need to download and install the tool using the link below, you can also download the installation and user manual PDF's:

After installing the tools, you will have two shortcuts installed at your start menu:

1. Rapid Configuration Tool: what we will currently explain.

2. Rapid Migration Tool: Which used to migrate your data from Quickbooks to GP.

To start, you will need to start "Rapid Configuration Tool" From start menu as shown below:

The application will start in an easy wizard mode, just press on Next:

We will need to choose "Export Data From GP to Excel 2007", Choose the export location and click on Next:

Fill your database login information and press on Next:

Select your company and Next:

Click on export and enjoy having your company setup on your desktop available to be imported to any other company using the same wizard!
