Overview
The Professional Services Tools Library (PSTL) is designed for use in Microsoft Dynamics GP. All of the free tools contained in the library are compatible with the core modules in GP. The tools feature capabilities not found in the standard GP product. For example, users of the Tools Library can take advantage of a set of modifier and combiner tools to change and combine master records in GP.
SalesPad, however, does not support these tools. This document lists Professional Services Tools by topic, and describes how each tool impacts (or does not impact) SalesPad.
Note: If an item is not listed below, it is not supported in SalesPad.
System Tools
Database Disabler: While this will prevent GP users from logging into a specific company, it will have no impact on SalesPad or other SalesPad products. SalesPad users will still be able to access that company and log in.
Financial Tools
No impact on SalesPad.
Sales Tools
Customer Combiner: This will merge customers together, which will result in lost visibility of the original customer’s SalesPad- specific data ( CRM events, CRM Notes, Customer Special pricing, Customer Discounts, Group pricing, Customer and Address UDFs, Customer Recurring Sales Definitions). While this data will still exist in the database, it will have the original customer’ s number still attached.
Customer Modifier: Same as above. To be able to view this data, each table would need to be updated to reflect the new customer number.

While this data will still exist in the database, it will have the original item number attached.
Item Number Modifier: Same as above.
Purchasing Tools
Payables Management Master Record Triggers: This will only replicate GP data, not SalesPad data.
Vendor Combiner: This will merge vendors together, which will result in lost visibility of the original vendor’s SalesPad- specific data ( CRM Notes, Vendor Special costing, Vendor and Address UDFs).
