Wish #6050 -- stop the dumb tasks - example


Wish #6050 --stop the dumb tasks - the example used here is the moveup in Inventory Forecasting. Click on the image and you will see the PLUS ( + ) sign and the expanded listings showing each store -- to open these you have to click ONE AT A TIME. On a longline like RBR Gates Rubber this is very repetitive - very dumb task. We need an optional button to OPEN ALL.

Hey --since we are in the Forecasting page - lets do the following
-eliminate the wasted border - so we can see all the data - like the warehouse sales stuck to the extreme right
-eliminate the order point column --we don't use - make more room for other fields
-allow us to SORT on any column --for example in PN Code ( sub line ) order - we can't do any of this now
-give us the option for FULL SCREEN ( as seen in other areas ) - so we can see more data for more stores - as it is now you can only see THREE part sku's if you have 3 stores ... not big enough
-no option for DESCRIPTION - what a pain in the ass - some lines REALLY need the description for a better job
-when you open just one part -- have the screen STOP pushing that part number to the bottom when it re-draws the page - really dumb - center the part or better yet -- position that part at the upper part of the re-dwawn screen --so if you have 10 stores -- you can see all 10

A lot of common sense is missing in this screen - thank goodness we only have 3 stores -- if you had 7 - you would really find it awkward.

How to other users running WHI Nexpart feel about these clunky things ??
