This is mostly a question for the Thermwood folks. How is the removal of the purchasing software going to affect the current hardware database? I am assuming it will still be there since this is currently how we place pulls and knobs; and associate hole patterns for slides, hinges and RTA hardware. Will Version 6 allow us to access this hardware database to add new items, and for that matter update pricing?
Thanks!
Joe

Re: Version 6 Hardware Database
Joe, since the programming folks haven't responded, I will give you what I know. You will be able to use the hardware database but not buy the items. You will need to supply your own cost and source info. I think you will also be able to add your own items and I also think you will be able to use the existing images for the newly added items. It has been some time since we discussed these things so I am working from memory. If it any different I will post next week after I check it out.

Re: Version 6 Hardware Database
Hi Ken, That is great news about the ability to use the data base for our own use.
I also agree with Nick about have the minutes required to install that product. The other area I sometimes overlook is the freight amount. On things like hardware the real cost is not the purchase cost of the item but on the landed price. Could we not have a box we fill in estimated freight or freight percentage addon? Then each user can adjust this as some suppliers have free into store then others have a handling fee on goods under $200 then others have a blanket $15.00 per invoice raised.
With this one Ken, if the software guys have this ready before version 6 could we have this released as 5.3 maybe? It is just the hardware prices are now fairly inaccurate and time adjusting them manually is time consuming.
Regards
Neville
