eOne Smartconnect - Integration map fields cannot change from "List Option"

Problem:
When using eOne Smartconnect, and trying to create a map, one of the source fields is set to "List Option" by default and does not change even when you manually change it using the drop down menu.

Solution:
Drag the field you want to integrate from the "Source columns" on the left side of the window onto the field in the "Destination Column". This will change the field to "source column"

Dynamics GP 2010 - SSRS Payables Transaction History

To add the PO number to your SSRS Payables Transaction History Report

1. Add another dataset "PONum" that contains all of the vouchers and PO numbers. This view from Victoria Yudin is perfect.  http://victoriayudin.com/2008/10/17/sql-view-what-check-paid-purchase-order/
2. Go into your table and create a placeholder wherever you would like your PO numbers to be.
3. Under General>Value Click the Fx button to create a function
4. Paste this in
   =lookup(Fields!VCHRNMBR.Value, Fields!Voucher_Number.Value,Fields!PO_Number.Value,"PONum")
5. Save, close, Run your report and see if it works.

Dynamics GP 2010 - SSRS Payables Historical Aged Trial Balance

The default SSRS Payables Historical Aged Trial Balance that gets deployed from GP has different parameters from the original GP report.

When you initially run the report straight out of the box with a value selected for the 

"Select Transactions for Report Using:" you would expect it to return all of the records.

This does not happen.

You also notice a bunch of weird characters 

ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ

In the "To:" parameters.

You will also notice that NONE of the fields have any sort of drop down selection menu.

1. To get the report to work, you must fill in ALL "to:" parameters with something useful (like "ZZZZZ")
2. Fill in the "To: Document Number" parameter with something useful (like "9999999")
3. Leave the "from:" parameters blank

Now if you try to run the report it will return data properly.
