SmartList Designer
Ian Grieve asked 8 years ago
It appears when the latest SmartList Builder is loaded access to SmartList Designer is removed and the buttons instead open SmartList Builder. Is there a way to retain access to SmartList Designer? (I did have a prod at the settings, but couldn;t see anything.

You can certainly give Matt’s suggestion a try as well. We have seen some mixed results with trying to use SmartList Designer by disabling SmartList Builder. One of the main things is to make sure that the one you are modifying wasn’t created/modified in SmartList Builder and it won’t read those if you disable SLB, but you will still see them in the list since SLB is installed in the Dynamics.set file still.
Ian Grieve replied 8 years ago I do sort of want my cake and to eat it as I do sometimes need to show people both SmartList Designer and SmartList Builder (as an additional option) without needing to disable and enable.I was hoping for a hidden option which would allow the button to open SmartList Designer while being able to access SmartList Builder from the menu. Thanks all for the reponses.
MattC replied 8 years ago Like an open SmartList Builder, SmartList Designer or prompt each time setup option……
End users would always have SLB marked of course but would be a useful option for partners
Ian Grieve replied 8 years ago Something like a New button which defaults to one of them (option?) and a drop down menu where you can pick which to open would be good.
Currently there is not a way other than adding a window shorcut to access SmartList Designer. This can be found under SmartList>>Company. This does remove some functionality. What are you trying to accomplish using SmartList Designer?
I work for a VAR and was hoping to be able to have my test machine with SLD available as per standard and access SLB the traditional way.
In this case you would need to have another instance of GP without SmartList Builder installed that uses the same SQL server.

Before you open SmartList go Microsoft Dynamics GP >> Tools >> Customise >> Customisation Status and disable SmartList Builder
Then open SmartList, the New button will then take you into SmartList Designer
