Hi WildlifeRemoval, Here are my results below, I am sorry I didn't get back to you last Friday, I was sick. First, I had to go to Customize->Tables/Fields, then I selected "Edit Fields.." for the "Transaction" table.  In the Transaction table I choose the option for "Add a Linked Field", I choose ...

Recently our Service Provider reported our service as unabailble for about an hour - during which time some Method users weree assigning Activities.  The email alert emails bounced and an error message was shown - Email Send Failure Alert.   My question is - when the service returns what would happen to the alert emails?  I read on ...

Hey Tate, I know it's probably too late, but I found I had a fair few issues with getting Method to work at first using PHP and the Method API.

The version of your accounting software does not support edits on this list or transaction from 3rd party software. Try editing the record directly in your accounting software instead. Additional ...

I have added lots of custom fields to my Entity/Customer/Contact tables before - I just wanted to double-check which table was best to add the field to, and which child tables would also contain the field. It's very difficult to make what should be simple decisions on these types of things without documentation or even a simple schematic ...

H to showello Mike,    The Entity table is the base for Customers, Contacts, Vendors and Employee.  The issue is that an inheritance exists between the parent Entity table and it's children that is not controlled in the interface.  Messing with the Entity table can be tricky.  I would recommend putting the TagList ...

Hi Wildliferemoval, I did some work with your request in my own account this afternoon, I believe I have figured out a way for you to hide your Inactive Estimates.  Unfortunately, I have run out of time to complete my instrutions on how you can do this.  I will respond to this forum thread tomorrow with my explanation then. -Ben

I have been reading several post on tables, fields,screens and report designer. I am starting to under stand it but still not sure how to add a drop down box in workorder add/edit from customer equipment and have it show up on the printed workorder in report designer or have the customer equipment added in the field column on the right. This is ...
