We associate to a dynamic equation $\xi$ three different connections and then we consider the meaning of the vanishing of their curvatures. Some peculiarities of the case of autonomous dynamic equation polynomial in the velocities $\dot{q}$ are pointed out. Finally, using the so-called Helmholtz conditions, we investigate a particular example.
