    Record Locks in Macola - entering Production

    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

    Record Locks in Macola - entering Production

    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...

    Progression 7.6.400 Creating Simple Custom Menus

    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...

    Progression 7.6.400 Creating Simple Custom Menus

    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...

    Crystal 7 on W2K3TS

    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

    7.6.400 Update - User Module Access now a mess

    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...

    UNINSTALL PWE 7.6.400

    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...

    UNINSTALL PWE 7.6.400

    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...

    UNINSTALL PWE 7.6.400

    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...

    UNINSTALL PWE 7.6.400

    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

    Issues from Upgrade to 7.6.4

    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...

    Email PO Progression 7.6.300

    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...

    Email PO Progression 7.6.300

    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...

    Security - Folder Permissions M:\Macsql

    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...

    Security - Folder Permissions M:\Macsql

    This is great information thanks to you both. Why can't Macola tech support furnish an end user with this basic information? Especially when you are paying them $$$ for the call. Additionally I would think they might add this to their software documentation and or web site.

    Security - Folder Permissions M:\Macsql

    Alan, Thanks for the reply. I actually called Macola tech support this AM and got a very lame answer. "Administration is up to you". If fairness to end users we need to know how the software works, which folders the users need certain rights to to implement proper directory security...

    Security - Folder Permissions M:\Macsql

    Does anyone know of any documentation on proper NTFS permissions for M:\macsql and underlying folders. Currently ours is set to Everyone which seems rather dangerous. Inadvertant deletion of files, etc. Is it possible to lock these folders down? Is there any documentation on this? We are...

    Progression 7.6.3 SQL Script to change passwords

    Dear Group, We periodically change passwords on our network accounts. Does anyone know of a script that I could use to change all Macola user account passwords in Query Analyzer using the SA account? Visual Menu Builder takes for ever. TIA ~Brent

    Archiving data

    This is an area\feature Macola needs to improve on, there should be a built in utility that does below, many others packages this feature built in. Burning to CD is not a prudent thing to archive your data as once you install a Macola update it changes the tables and the program, the newly...
