Hi Scott, I'm a little confused as to what you mean by selecting the sales rep for a contact? The sales rep field is selectable and can save when editing a customer. While viewable for a contact, in the Contacts table it is a linked field from the Entity table. You cannot edit a linked field, it is only viewable.  Can you tell me which ...

Hi Adam, From what I'm reading, I believe you've fully got it now!   :)   The one final part to this is that we'll be able to add / update or remove the selected services a customer chooses to use in the customer edit or new screens; and while the prices for those services will display, only the designated user(s) ...

Hello sbradley,    I had a couple of comments on the relationship table.  First, the field LinktoSalesOrder is a relationship between InvoiceLine and SalesOrderLine.  The options have been limited.   Creating another relationship between SalesOrderLine and InvoiceLine may cause trouble, but you can try it.  The ...

Hi Adam, We'd like the actual rate / price to be able to be seen when viewing a chosen customer's information.  (Most likely I can do this by adding a column for the specific field to the grid.)  Your second statement in the second paragraph is exactly where I'm going with this as I'm trying to understand what is the ...

Stephen, My apologies, there is a button on the Item Receipt screen to select a Purchase order.  If you select the Items tab when entering the receipt, you should see a Select PO... button.  Here are some screens: This will bring up a screen to select the open purchase orders from the vendor.
