POS 2009 - No Capabilities to Add Serial Numbered Items

Hi,

I have a few clients and a an existing client that are interested in upgrading or buying Microsoft Dynamics POS 2009.

However there is a fundamental problem as a feature that was available for RMS2.0 was now removed.

In RMS2.0 you could use an assembly to include Serial Numbered Items and it would ask or search for the serial number during sell process in the POS.

In Microsoft Dynamics POS 2009 assembly and kits and joint together as kits feature however Microsoft Dynamics POS 2009 - Kits cannot use Serial Numbered Items.

For any companies that use Kits and serial numbers this is a big problem as they cannot record serial numbers for selling kit items.

For example PC shops, Camera Shops etc. They sell their products as kits however need to record the serial numbers for warranty purposes.

I am sure I am not the only one that has raised these issues.

I tried to find in the PartnerSource knowledge base a workaround or indication if it is to be added in the future but with no success.

I urge Microsoft to bring this important feature back to POS 2009 as it is critical to business that use kits and Serial Numbered Items Your feedback on this will be much appreciated.

Thanks

from what I have been able to decipher, POS2009 is nothing more than an upgrade to MSPOS. It lacks a LOT of the features a lot of us use in RMS, and doesn't have anywhere near the number of add-ons RMS does. Everyone I have talked to recommends staying with RMS. Craig

Yeah, it was touted as being the RMS replacement awhile back. I'm starting to think it was a way to keep RMS customers hanging-on to reap their Maintenance dollars in return for essentially nothing.

Hi Guys, I am discovering the hard way that RMS continues as a premium product that sits above POS2009 (not a replacement for RMS) and provides the ability to also go multi-store. Essentially you should look at the product suite as POS 2009 (Good? Single Store, Multi-Lane) RMS + HQ (Better? Multi-Store Non-ERP) what I am trying to do is create the noise and have people like you guys helping to get Microsoft to add it into the next service pack or release. Please join in, the more the better.
