The module used by our Materials Manager that we find keeps things open after it is closed and causes a record lock is IM\Maintain\Item Master. As stated many times we need to have him log completely out of Macola and then it releases the record lock. TIA

We are using Progression 7.6.400 and MS SQL 2000 SP3A. We seem to continue to encounter alot of Record Locks when our production users are entering production. I have noted one issue with a Record Lock seems to be tied when our Materials Manager is using a module in the IM applet and it seems to...

Thanks for all the input. Guess I agree with Kevin as we had done this prior to our problem and now all users profiles based on the renaming of another Module with custom applets now has many problems that effects many users after upgrading to 7.6.400. Tried to use the transport feature and...

Am trying to setup a custom menu to simplify our production users getting to the different modules in Macola that they need access to. Is it possible to just copy the modules to the left side of the screen without the different Modules Folders and sub folders? EG> Without showing the heiarchy...

Specifically we copy the Crystal Folder mentioned above to the users HOME folder, under their Windows folder and it seemed to fix. Example H: (mapped network drive to users home folder aka My Documents) H:\Windows\Crystal Then tell them not to delete it. Hope this helps

We are running MS SQL 2000 and updated from Progression 7.6.300 to 7.6.400. After the update it now appears many of our user modules have been toggled to an on state when they were initially off. Obviously this brings some concerns on security and access within the software and is very...

I've been administrating Macola here for 6 years. I have never seen a piece of software with so many problems. I email in things I see broken to tech support and the problems never seem to get fixed. The request to create and uninstall applet was submitted over 3 years ago. What does Macola do...

Seems to be that is part of software programming 101, write install routine and write uninstall routine. It would be very helpful if Progression Tech Support could publish a tech doc on their web site on how to remove it manually, eg. registry entries to remove, folder directories to remove...

Don, ????? What, since when? It doesn't and hasn't ever showed up on any of our workstations. We use MS SQL 2000 SP4 and Windows 2000, Windows 2003 and XP for our OS's. There is no entries for Macola, Exact or Progression in any of our systems add remove programs. If this is the case may I...

Does anyone know how to uninstall the PWE client? Would be nice to know in the event you needed to remove it from a system. Note it does not show up in Add\Remove. Requested this from Macola Tech Support about 3 years ago. TIA

#6 - 7.6.400 installs the .NET 2.0 Framework, we are now seeing many stop errors in many systems application log. Does anyone have a workaround on this one? TIA Event Type: Error Event Source: .NET Runtime Event Category: None Event ID: 0 Date: 12/5/2006 Time: 2:21:43 PM User: N/A...

We updated from 7.6.300 to 7.6.400 and have found the following issues. 1.) BIN NUMBER search now shows historical list of bins, apparently we had a custom search and needed to do a search edit and add qty_hand > 0. It now shows only bins with quantity on hand. 2.) Most Disturbing!! - PWE...

Thank you for the replys. Thought I had a simple solution with the ICR but am aghast that the ICR does not have a switch to flag the PO as printed. I continue to be dismayed (again) as to why Macola would not simply add this feature\function so the PO is flagged as Printed when printing the ICR...

We are trying to increase the efficiency of our purchasing process. Am looking to do the following and wonder if anyone else has done this. FAXING hard copy PO's seems so tedious, slow, costly and inefficient. Am thinking to go in and design one of the built in PO ICR's, add a bitmap signature...

Andy, For clairification we do pay maintenance and we do purchase support thru Macola under the six pack program. This latest call on folder permissions was using an incident from a pre payed six pack. We don't mind paying for calls $$$ (most are always to report bugs) but expect a little...
