sales Configurator and sales forecast
I am trying to use the sales Configurator in Great Plains in conjunction with the sales forecast. The problem I am running in to is the items in the forecast are the items that make up the configured item, therefore, the item doesn=92t show as a line item on the Sales Order, therefore, not deducted from the sales forecast. I know it's a lot said in one sentence. Forecast item A for 5, B for 3 and C for 2 all in the month of June. Then a sales order for a configured item (Config) has a due date in June calling out A qty 1 and C qty 1. The forecast QTYs for June should be A for 4, B for ...

How do you make a custom toolbar for a report?
How do you customize the toolbar for a report? In one of the WordMerge examples posted by Albert Kallal (http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/msaccess/DownLoad.htm) a report has a toolbar that has been modified. How do you do this? Robert Check out my Quick tutorial on how to create a custom popup menu and when the instructions tell you to check the popup checkbox, don't do it and you should be able to figure out the rest (I'm working on getting an actual tutorial up for this, but this should do for you until then): http://www.btabdevelopment.com/main/QuickTutorials/H...

Short Sale of Options
I'm trying out Money Plus Deluxe (trial version). I can't update my investment account because it's hungup on option transactions. I download info from my investment account and I have an option short sale (sell to open). So I now have this list of transactions to enter into Money, and it hits the short option which is listed something like "CHK Sep 45 Call". It tells me that this item already exists, asks if I want to choose another from the pull-down list above, but the pull-down is grayed out. Then I notice an extra space after "CHK", so I delete one ...

Create Report using fields from Form's datasheet
I have a form in datasheet view and I have a control that allows me to view and hide various fields. I would like to be able to click a button to create a report for printing using the fields that are visible on the datasheet. I don't need to be able to save the report for later use. I'd like it to open the report in layout view so I can edit field sizes and what not to ensure the report fits on one page (usually). Thanks again! I would just push the data to Excel. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Gntlhnds" <Gntlhnds@discussions.microsoft.com>...

Opening/Using Custom Report
I'm trying to use a custom report I downloaded from the reports library. First problem is that Windows XP is telling me that the file type (qrp) is not recognizable. What will open it? Next......

Exchanging items (return and sale in one transaction)
Is is possible to return and sell an item in the same transaction? For example, a customer wants to return clothing in one size and get the same item in another size. There is no price difference. Is there any problem with recalling the original transaction for return and then scanning the right size item in that same transaction? Also, is it possible to return one or more item and simultaneously buy one or more items with different prices/total costs? RMS Help file doesn't have information on this. ______________________________________________________ Larry Leveen OlyBikes Bikes...

I need to set sales rep ID for a recall to original sales rep??
At our store, we have run into some problems when people return an item in exchange for another item. When the transaction is recalled for return, the salesrepID from the original transaction appears on the returned items, which is what we want. However, the new items added to the transaction have the sales rep ID of the current POS session.

Hi! I have a report that contains a subform that shows up in datasheet view. I need the row height of the datasheet subform to expand and contract according to the amount of data contained.
