How Do I install DynamicZip™?

NOTE: Backup your Microsoft Dynamics® GP accounting system before beginning a DynamicZip™ installation or upgrade.

1. See the Download Page to download the appropriate installation file.
2. Need help choosing? Read Which DynamicZip Build Should I Download and Install?.
3. Contact Us for Registration Keys if necessary. * Installing a DynamicZip service pack does not require new keys. * Testing DynamicZip in Demo Mode does not require any keys. - Download and save dzSetup.exe to your computer, or just run it from a temp folder. The installer will expand DynamicZip files into your workstation’s Microsoft Dynamics® GP folder (The default is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics\GP).
4. Start Microsoft Dynamics® GP.
5. You will get the message that new code must be included in the DYNAMICS.SET dictionary. Answer Yes to include it now.
6. IMPORTANT: You must repeat the above steps on all workstations that need access to DynamicZip functionality.
7. Log into Microsoft Dynamics® GP as System Administrator. This will insure that you have the required rights to perform any neccessary post-installation table conversions. - When upgrading from a previous version of DynamicZip™, there may be tables that need to be converted to a new format. You can use the DZ Table Status window to convert the tables.
8. Enter your registration keys into the DZ Registration window. Click Save. - If DynamicZip™ SQL tables have been converted, or if new registration keys have been entered, then DynamicZip™ will have become disabled when you log in. You must exit Microsoft Dynamics® GP and restart to re-enable DynamicZip™.
9. Return to New Installation Instructions or Upgrade Instructions. When installing a service pack for your current DynamicZip™ build number, step 2 & steps 6-10 are unnecessary.
