you know, we ought to be careful. One thing I have noticed about Evan, he has a wonderful, wicked sense of humor. If the next time we call support, and we find ourselves listening to the chipmunks, he will be sitting back in his chair saying "well, they asked for something different".. Personally, I wouldn't blame him, I…

I have posted extensively on bins. There is one thread in particular that you may find helpful, as it outlines the design. Do a search on bin management in warehouse. Hope it will help you.

Please I beg you! Change the support music. I get angry the moment I hear it. for your own relief, perhaps you could put them on speaker phone and play some music of your own while waiting? I think that while there are a few elements of truth in what people have said on this thread, there comes a point, at least to me, of…

is ok, snoggers, I know. Good thing there aren't more like me, not sure the world could take it. no offense taken :D I have found hold times to be rather short lately, but thats just me. maybe NS has a contract for their hold music, and is locked into it.....just throwing that out there....could be way off (again)

alternatively, I think Gretchen Wilson "my give a damn is busted" or the ever wonderful Celine Dion- "It's all coming back to me now..." are pretty fitting :D

ok, good catch. lol- :o once again, I have been corrected. Now that is what I call team work :D

oooo long, I can't tell you how others do it, as I am just me (and a good thing, the world is not big enough for two of me), yet, on a fundamental level, let me ask you this... are you absolutely certain you want your warehouse to fulfill soemthing not on the SO? this is a total breach of controls, and these controls are…

ROFL- I learned a new word today!- thanks!

ha ha ha like NetSuite is going to find a way to reduce their revenue stream. hahahahahaha. Oh stop it. Wiz, am I detecting a bit of sarcasm? That was too funny, all the more as it is so true....;)

Can someone post the steps they take to fulfill an SO with two items, each being drop shipped from different vendors? I am testing it and am getting stuck. Here are the steps I am taking: 1) open up the approved sales order 2) click on "fulfill" 3) At this screen, it shows item 1 with corresponding Drop Ship PO #123 and…

Now Now Mr Tom. You know that is not a true statement. I dont use matrix items at skyytek - but - you bet - I understand them. And judging by some of her posts - I want to bet angela does too. That is a bet you would win, Ray. This thread is not as off topic as it may seem, Tom. For me, I am actually trying to analyze and…

No, what I need to do is figure out how to stop locking my keys in my truck. after that, it is all about what I choose to do. Anyway, I was not making judgements on your dilemmas, I was only thanking Ray. This thread is informatinve and helpful to some of us, there is a lot of information provided that many of us can use.…

In Simple, Non Tekkie, English?????

Bingo. I am only talking about web store with the one exception being searchability when adding items to the a SO. Those are the ONLY TWO things I care about with the item naming scheme. So, are the fields still "self-explanatory"? Re-read the first post and keep in mind that I am only talking about how naming an item…

Angela, you told me that you don't use matrix items at your company...so you couldn't really understand the issues we are up against (with a mix of both item types at our store) until you add matrix items to your store. The naming fields don't behave the same between the two item types. So, your vote for "lowered…

That is the kind of information on the formatting of part numbers that I do NOT want to incorporate into this thread. For the example "Coswell Cogs" with item number "123456". When making a SO in the back-office ...I want to be able to enter "Coswell" and get the "short list". I want to be able to enter "12345" and get the…

OK Tom, I am back. I slept on it, and now I think I may have a possibly identified the issue. You gave me a hint when you said a kindergärtner should be able to do it. In this thread, you gave us some specific criteria. Chunk o wood. MFG item name 123456. You then asked us to come up with a naming scheme. You even gave us…

ah.. and the resolution was - if you cannot score the goal - move the goal posts. as in. change your requirements !. BPE 101. good advice, Ray- those who are not flexible, often break. I have read this entire post, was a great lesson. Thanks for your time and energy spent teaching us.

NON-MATRIX ITEMS for resale ----------------------------------------------- Item Name/Number: 123456 Display Name/Code: Cosswell Cog Supplier Name/Code: Cosswell Cog Purchase Description: Black Cog 12" made from steel Sales Description: Black Cog 12" made from steel Store Display Name: 12" Cosswell Cog Store Description:…

Trust me, Tom, if I thought you were playing a game, I wouldn't be trying to help. ;) You have been relatively specific as to what you don't want, so may I ask what is happenning in your item searches while trying to add to the SO that is causing an issue?

farrago \fuh-RAH-go; fuh-RAY-go\, noun: A confused mixture; an assortment; a medley. (I love it!!!) Gentlemen, Gentlemen, play nice on the playground. :o Tom, If you step back for a moment, and re-read this thread, you may see a common element. Several of us have asked you to be more specific. We don't know the actual…

Basil, NS has T-Shirts?? I got gypped. :( Evan, I could care less who wrote it, as it bears your name, and from the interactions I have had with you in here, I have no doubt that the content will be excellent. This is exactly what was asked for, and is being provided. The idea that new users will have something to lean on…

Basil, I don't know what training you went to, but they must have toned it way down by the time I was there- Lance wouldn't let me get away with anything.....

yeah, I am consistently amazed that NS has not yet given me the finger...;) And your right, no way I would take Rosa on, he looks like he can hold his own. and there for a minute I just thought you were the favorite....:D

score one for Evan, he heard, he listened, he provided. Evan, it amazes me how you quietly step up and meet our requests, with little fanfare or even the slightest bit of ego. There is much to be commended on the simple fact that you wrote this (even if you had help). Kudos, Evan. I still think your worth your weight in…

oh tom, I so totally agree. I wish... good lord, do you remember how big the can of worms was that I opened with this thread to begin with? Then, the wiki/whitepaper fiasco...:rolleyes: The truth is simple, it is what it is. You wont find a 'guide', NS won't provide one. Probably for a couple of reasons, primarily that NS…

Hello Daniel, This thread has gotten quite long, so I was not very clear in my last post. I know, (and stated somewhere previously) that these books are not the answer to users lack of training. Not by a long shot. However, they are the only material I had seen that provides a clear introduction to the basics of NS. One of…

Thanks, Julie, the help is getting better, and many of us have noticed.

Beautifully put!!! why, thank you. It got so quiet that I was getting a little nervous. one last question-totally off topic- this is the first thread I have ever seen rated. Who rates these? other users, or NS? I cannot seem to figure out how to rate other threads, so not sure if users can even do this?

Yes, I'm saying not to share them. We are creating an option to deliver these classes over the web in a virtual classroom style for many of our folks that cannot get to a public class and the (new) materials will be available via this manner as well as our public courses. This should be available following the new release…
