Using QB pro 2004; my client keeps adding new inventory items when he cannot find the one he is looking for. I turned off all his permissions to inventory, but yet it makes no difference. I tuned off access to everything except entering/changing/deleting and printing invoices and still he can add spurious items. Is there something else I need to shut off?

The user?
I can certainly relate to your frustration. Its not good for business to strangle your client and its hard to tell them to stay the hell out of the program. Harder still to get them to actually do so if you do ask. Is it possible he knows the Admin user password and has gotten around you by logging in as Admin?
Your client's wind pipe would do just fine.
Thanks, it does not require an admin - I have tested it with his ID myself. The least amount of permissions to enter and take a credit card for an order allows him to add items on the fly when entering orders. Seems like an oversight to me. Its harder for me to correct now that we use QB merchant services - it permanently locks the order from editing. The best I can do short of voiding and reentering is to merger the item into another item.
Any other thoughts? Craig
Add one item to inventory: Miscellaneous. Tell him to use that and straighten it out later.
Allan: Do you want clients? Are you posting with a competitor's name? Don't you realize this all comes out when your potential client does a google on you?
Your right. I never thought of that. I really feel mortified. From this day forward, I will chance my ways. No more Mr. bad guy, today I am Mr. Nice Guy.
Uncross your fingers Allan.
I was hoping your would say don't change a thing we like you the way your are.
Ah well, I didn't think you needed that given the facetious nature of your post. You've got too much vinegar to bottle it all up and change your ways. Plus, I can't speak for everybody. But if it helps *I* don't dislike you.
I've never met the poster. I can't say if I would like or dislike the poster if I met them. One thing I can say is I dislike the ethics of the poster, or should I say the lack of ethics. I have no idea if it ever will come up in front of the poster's licensing board, but it could. Something to ponder, but as you say Tee the poster is too full of acid to become an old salt.
You really should take your cue from the late great Will Rogers, who said "I never met a poster I didn't like".
