  1. Items Prices linked to an Index

    I sell items that have a cost/purchase/sell price attached to an Index. For example Aluminum, Zinc, Copper...
    The Index at the London Metal Exchange (LME) for these materials changes intraday but for simplicity, I only need update my prices once a month.
    If I could store the value of LME for Aluminum, Copper or Zinc in a single field and define that this or that Item is linked to that field, then I can drastically simplify the updating of prices.
    For example: Item1 this month would be 'ALUMINUM LME' ($2) + Item purchase price ($3) = $5. Next month LME…

  5. I have a printing company. We print on different papers and it could be single side or doubleside. There rates for single side and dou

    We are a printing company. We print on paper, it can be single side or double side. The item is the same paper but price varies from single side or doubleside. Currently we can't track stock, as we have to give 2different items but actually its the same item. We can't also use priceless as in one bill there could be 2 single side and 4 double side items. If we give price list all of it gets changed. We want a solution where we can club multiple items into a single inventory source.

  6. Allow inventory tracking on purchased items

    Presently all items created are listed if the sales check box is selected which provide the inventory and stock level. If the purchased check box is checked the item is not listed in the available items for sale which is useful if the item is not for resale but assemble. But you can not track the stock, which give a false business valuation

    If the purchased option is check and the sales in not check there is no inventory option.

    If we could have track the purchased items we can produce a simple manual assemble function, using the stock adjustment…

  7. Editable Item Groups/Assemblies

    We would love to be able to create groups of items (or assemblies) that we can actually view and edit while creating an estimate or invoice. Ideally this would include the ability to change the quantity and price for each line item in the group AND be able to hide the line item breakdown from the client.

    For example, the client would see "Total Travel Expenses" and a price. While creating the estimate/invoice, we would see and be able to edit the mileage, meals, and lodging line items that comprise the total travel expense assembly/group.

    Pretty please?!

  10. Increase 1 MB limit of file import

    1 MB is too small for uploading price list data. Our price lists with 40,000 and 145,000 line items, I have to break up into 5000 line item files to upload multiple times. It is just to tedious.

  11. Improve search suggest of drop-down lists: i.e. items, customer names, and other lists

    Drop-Down lists for items, customer names, etc. would improve entry time and accuracy if the field would use search suggest (type a few letters and match in any part of the results) instead of only searching from the beginning. For example:
    I have the following products: Cloud Services, Cloud Applications, Cloud Consulting. It would save time if by typing "cons" I already see "Cloud CONSulting" as the only item, instead of typng "cloud" and pick from three options.
    Same for customer names, I often forget the last name of my customers (customers show as LAST, FIRST), so I need to…

  12. be able to select which vendor (or user and role) has access to which items

    I have 2 differents type of vendors :
    - Classic
    - Technico

    Some items are same for each type of vendors, some else ...not.
    It would be nice for each vendors to have only choice of their items display in estimate and invoice.

  18. In Setup, open view of users at active only

    Right now in setup you see all users, active and inactive. This is not a preferred view of users in setup, as I see people that I've inactivated years ago. What use is it to see them now? Just clutters the screen. Your software needs to be able to allow us to look at a list of users with a default of active users only. There should also be a filter or checkbox to allow for the list to be or to include the inactive users, but this view should be secondary. This goes for everywhere users are located in…
