Show Lines

Show Lines automatically enables access to the List tool when using a Show pulldown.
For example, on the Customer card the Show pulldown includes Last Purchases. This shows the lines from invoices for their last purchase of each item they ever purchased.

For comparison, All Purchases shows every line item, every time they ever purchased.
Items Purchased shows Items they ever purchased and requires access to Items Search.

Controls are being added as needed to limit Show options by Employee, like for MRP.
If you want to limit access to Show Lines results, email to support@bigbusiness.com.


  Quick List

Quick List is updated for Apple. The List tool on the Reporting toolbar is used to display results from the Show dropdown. Access to the tool is now automatic.


  Discount Fields

Discount Fields are updated for Apple. These include Customer History, Invoice Expanded, Invoice Billing, Quote Expanded, Order Expanded, and Order Billing.


  Escape Clause

More connections to external systems and data interchange mean more possible errors. Most connections avoid errors by encoding data being sent, so it comes out unchanged.

Sometimes it is safer to change the actual data, which Big Business does automatically. Say you use Send Attachments to email a document called Dave's Buying Advice.pdf.

You might guess that Big Business would replace Spaces but what about Apostrophe? The file name for the attachment might be Dave_s_Buying_Advice.pdf, just to be safe.


  Red Fields

Big Business turns various fields red to highlight a negative value or date that is locked.

These include Invoice Date, Invoice Landed Profit %, Inovice Profit %, Order Date, Order Landed Profit %, Order Profit %, Quote Date, Quote Expiry, Quote Landed Profit %, Quote Profit %, and others that have beeen updated for Apple optimization.
