He’s a Dynamics GP veteran, author and even humorist, and he’s has co-written the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016 Cookbook.

This week, Fastpath Director of Client Services Mark Polino tells us about his new book, the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016 Cookbook - Second Edition, co-authored with Ian Grieve and available directly from Packt Publishing or from Amazon. Somewhere between editions he found time to write the free Undead Guide to Dynamics GP Summit (among others), and at the Summit he’ll deliver a talk called “Naked and Afraid: GP Security.”

There’s 55 pages of new material in this cookbook update, meaning quite a lot that’s new. In the podcast, Polino talks about:

• “GP Hacks,” a new chapter devoted to clever work-arounds by actual users.
• When to surrender your hack and seek a third-party solution.
• Do GP experts still get jazzed by new editions?
• What excites Polino about 2016, and what would he like to see in the next release?
• Are you poking a hole in your firewall by using OData from a remote location? Yes, but you should use it anyway.
