Our client in Republic of Palau had, old Great Plains implements accounting. Support was originally planned, d & T, but when acquired Microsoft Great Plains Software D & t had to give up Great Plains implementation and support practice - we saw the examples in the Pacific region, as well as in Bermuda. Later recognized Microsoft Great Plains DEXTERITY has certain limitations, before all, when we talk about the tax engine and languages localization - does not support Unicode and skill was design done, 1992-1994, therefore, it is not object oriented product
