and the list goes on ... but the question remains -- when will we see some IMPROVEMENTS that are geared for the Jobber ?

Wish # 6028 - Identify parts NOT being price updated ( X line )

We need some way to identify ( mainly for X lines ) parts that are not being updated in price.   This is call # 1052614 placed today.   

Situation -- lets take a sample line - like Poulin chain saws - getting 1,000 parts for initial addition.  Then 6 months latter we get 1,010 parts of which 60 are  new and 50 have dropped off their list and are not obsolete and gone  ...   how do we identify parts that are NOT being actively priced ...

Issue --is it better to have NO PRICE than an out of date price?

Many data bases have a date field to show the last date & time the record was modified ... does Exploris have this?   We could use this date as a FILTER to list all part in X line with the date BEFORE  such and such date - then we can figure out what we have to do with these parts - are they superseded to something or missed on pricing or ??

Or a simple report listing all parts in X Line that DID NOT get updated ... as part of a larger report showing the averages or specific part by part price update impact ( especially for those who like to track devaluation in lines )

To accept lines for importing thru the excel template is fine -- but we also need some tools to administer these X lines.

It could also have some use in standard lines - looking for parts that have not had a price change date in over - say -two years - and what we might want to do with these parts.
