Britt Steinhardt​
Working on my end

DataQuest Solutions
​Hi all from Chicago!

DataQuest Solutions
​Tim are you for REAL just living the good life outdoors!?

AUGForums dot com
​Yep, broadcasting from outside at an Airbnb in San Diego today 🙂

DataQuest Solutions
​Brilliant Tim 🙂

Ahmed Z​
Gah yeah no report designer updates 😞

DataQuest Solutions
​Agree- wish they’d continue to improve GI build process

DataQuest Solutions
​Curious to hear if people thought of more use cases for cross-module workflow. Would like to hear more thoughts/examples of using that

DataQuest Solutions
​Jane – yes! copy/paste DB gadget will be handy

Global Data Solutions
​Yes, our customers love keystroke shortcuts (as do I)!

AUGForums dot com
​Did everyone catch this? https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/…

DataQuest Solutions
​Are they also disabling/phasing out automation notifications in favor of business events?

AUGForums dot com
​As far as I can tell, yes. The NOTIFICATIONS button on data entry screens is now Business Events.

Britt Steinhardt
​Does any one have any more information on the ‘Paid amount line-level AR/AP reports’ feature

P. Gilmore​
ITS AN INHOUSE PAYROLL

P. Gilmore
​@MikeGillum stated that more automation of Pay when Paid is on the roadmap

Laura Carpenter
​We are preparing for go live with the payroll in house in April and there is good linking to the job costing from payroll

Britt Steinhardt
​That’s what I was wondering…I need something like that

P. Gilmore​
this existing issue with Payroll from time card, is the delay of recognizing Project Cost until after payroll has been processed/paid.

P. Gilmore​
im in the same boat with Jane. I have a large customer with 9 different tenants – because of all the currencies involved

P. Gilmore
​thats correct @TimRodman

AUGForums dot com​
Thanks for fact-checking me Paul 🙂

Cloud ERP 2020 – InfoSourcing
​Payments and pre-payments on SO is still clunky

Global Data Solutions​
+1 to that!

Britt Steinhardt
​Thank you – everybody – very helpful

Shipping Software by V-Technologies
​Thanks for the great post R1 show!

Toon Six​
great job.

Global Data Solutions
​This was great. Thanks, all!

Britt Steinhardt
