In the case of larger organization, it is natural toabstract Dynamics GP and FRx client programs on Citrix or Microsoft TerminalServer, as current technology allows you to deploy local printer drivers onTerminal Server and create the feeling of local work for Great Plainsusers. Citrix or Terminal Server alsoallow you to cut GP and FRx support budget, as you are controlling all the usersat one TS or Citrix computer. Thisstatement is a bit optimistic, but it seems to be the future of thetrends. In this small publication wewould like to come across known issues with FRx on Terminal Server and possiblesolutions: 1. FRx 6.7 Service Pack 9, required and recommendedfor Dynamics GP 10.0. If you justapplied this service pack to your FRx installation, you may already be fightingwith strange error message: Invalid path specified for work drive, and thenwhen you are trying to print report: Error 9060 during the buildXML procedure. In order to fix this issue, please for eachFRx user, please open in FRx Admin->Processing Options and in Optional WorkDrive change default settings from something like this: C:\Documents and Settings\John\LocalSettings\Temp\3 to newly created folder on your terminal server. Be sure that all the FRx users have fullcontrol over this folder 2. All the FRx users should be on the same servicepack. If you are pursuing localcomputers FRx user workstation installation, there is no way of having FRxService Pack mismatch- every computer should be on the same FRx SP, if not you can put your FRx Sysdata at risk of being damaged Again, Frx is platform independent, and itmakes it a bit vulnerable to technology flukes on the specific OS platform 3. How to get FRx support. If you are current and enrolled in MicrosoftBusiness Solutions support plan, please go to your Microsoft Dynamics CustomerSource and search the answer on Techknowledge Database, if you are not sureabout your CS login and password, contact your Great Plains Reseller, or callour office 4. FRx Great Plains old versions support. Frx is pretty conservative application, atleast of looking from versions and service packs issuing. Current FRx 6.7 wasaround for at least 4 years. In ouropinion, FRx reached its cross road dilemma when Great Plains was purchased byMicrosoft and such non-Microsoft platforms as Pervasive SQL Server 2000/Btrieveor Ctree were abandoned
