  • Artikel

This article provides a resolution for the error that may occur when you try to install the Dynamics GP Data Mart provider for Management Reporter 2012.

Applies to:   Microsoft Management Reporter 2012, Microsoft Dynamics GP
Original KB number:   2831801

Symptoms

The Microsoft Dynamics GP Data Mart provider installation may fail with the following error shown in the Deployment log:

You must set up a functional currency for the following companies before the integration can continue

Cause

The Microsoft Dynamics GP Data Mart provider requires a Functional Currency be set for each GP company and an ISO code defined for each of these currencies.

Resolution

A functional currency will need to be set for all Microsoft Dynamics GP companies. To set the functional currency in Microsoft Dynamics GP, follow these steps.

  1. Start Microsoft Dynamics GP and sign in as an administrator user.
  2. Select Microsoft Dynamics GP on the menu bar.
  3. Point to Tools, point to Setup, point to Financial, and then select Multicurrency.
  4. Select a currency in the Functional Currency field.

An ISO code for each currency must be defined. This is a system-wide setting, and only has to be completed once. You can find these settings at:

  1. Select Microsoft Dynamics GP on the menu bar.
  2. Point to Tools, point to Setup, point to System, and then select Currency.
  3. Select a currency from the Currency ID lookup.
  4. Verify that the currency has an ISO Code.
  5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each currency.

The currency indexes in the MC40000 and MC40200 do not match.

  1. Run the following query against the Dynamics database:

    select * from MC40200

  2. Make note of the value in the CURRNIDX column.

  3. Run the following query against the company databases that were listed in the error message:

    select * from MC40000

  4. Make note of the value in the FUNCRIDX column.

If the values do not match, you will need to contact Microsoft Dynamics GP support for assistance with updating the index so that it is the same in both tables.
