I have customized invoice fscreen to include 'file attachment' field called "drawing" in the footer.   Picture comes up fine on screen.  I have tried to alter "simpleinvoice" in the report designer to get drawing to print.   I was able to insert a picture control on the footer of the invoice and ...

Brett - That's a built-in screen (like all the other screens under the QuickBooks and Customize tabs).  You can't recreate those screens using the Method designer. The Scheduled Reports tab is an admin tab. It isn't meant for end-users.  The produced reports go to Home > Reports, which is what your end ...

I'd like to add this screen to a new tab; however, it's not in the list. I don't want to give access to the QuickBooks tab, as I don't want to provide access to the other screens there. I prefer to have all my screens on the one tab that my user will only be using. I hope I don't have to create this one from scratch.  ...

I would LOVE to be able to override the warning message about having to delete all the objects in a section so that I can delete a section. Either have an action that selects all objects in the section to remove them or an action that allows you to delete the section (which automatically puts the objects back in the Toolbox). Thanks.  

Brett - 10 to 15 seconds is normal for a publish. It has to do a lot of work behind the scenes to create a webpage. Delay - I have this from time to time on my FireFox.  It's a FireFox thing.  I personally like using FireFox for Method when I'm using the finished product.......but when I design screens I strictly use IE8.  ...

I'd like to know if this is normal or not. It takes about 10-15 seconds average to wait for a Publish to finish. Also, if I'm editing an Action in a Grid, there could be a delay when I try to scroll down the list of actions. It's only probably a one-second delay, but it can be frustrating. Sometimes there's a delay when I start ...

Fran - It's a security check.  If an account fails to sign in successfully with 5 tries, then the MethodAPI (which the Outlook add-in uses) holds the account until it can be reset by us. The regular Method sign-in now has it so that after 5 failed attempts it makes you wait 10 minutes until you can try again, and this will likely be ...

 I was working in Method (under Firefox)...  Had QB open and saw that transactions were going back and forth..  Then attempted to  add new contact through Outlook and and got this message... "You have attempted to login with out Success 5 times in a row today...Account placed on hold.." So what happended, how to ...

Thanks Michael. I just had my terminology mixed up. I was following the directions above to edit invoices when I wanted to edit bills. Works now.

Andy, [quote user="Andy K"] For the first question above, is the only way to edit a screen to copy it first? If I make a copy and point all new links to the copied version, what happens if I decide to go back to using the default invoice screen? How do I get all links to point back there? [/quote] It is not possible to edit the ...
