NEW ITEM WIZARD SUGGESTIONS

Jun 28, 2006 3 Replies

When entering many items from a same vendor certain feilds should not reset to blank after selecting the check box to create another item. Obviously the supplier code should remain from the prior item as well as department, bar code and sales tax. There really is no benefit to use the wizard since it doesn't reduce entry time. It is easier to copy items and edit certain fields. Microsoft why is it that to make this program really function we need to buy third party add-ons!? Microsoft contact me if directly you really want to improve RMS!!!! I am reluctant to continue with this product when I open my second store especially since the QB interface is a joke!

Harry,

Dunno, to me New means new and Copy is a clone of something existing. We always recommend Copy for similar items.

I didn't vote. I would tend to disagree, as in my business I routinely create multiple new items from one supplier that are not in the same dept/ctgy.

Like Jeff, I use 'copy' a lot instead of new. If you use copy, be certain to zero the inventory fields.

The joke, however, is QuickBooks itself and not the RMS interface. My company uses QB Pro but I am hoping to switch to Great Plains or Small Biz Financials at some point. We deal with an accountant that has Notquickbooksaphobia, and my bookkeeper follows the accountants lead like sheep to the slaughter, so I expect some resistance to the change...

Best of luck, Tom

TT,

The copy problem was fixed a while ago, December in 1.3.204.
