ezPower / Networked Version:- Some wins - some losses...
« Last post by JohnBlyth on February 22, 2021, 01:34:46 AM »
I have recently upgraded to the networked version, and I had some real problems getting the slave to see the Server DR14 folder share. Windows 10 makes it really hard, and the section on Networking in the Ez Power manual is probably a decade or more out of date!

I couldn't get the Slave version to pick up the share from the Master (sharing that was straightforward), so after many hours of frustration, I did this:-
  • I went to "My PC" Explorer on the Slave and added a "Network Location" to point to \\MasterPc\Documents. However, that pointer didn't appear in the "My PC" listing of the dialogue box to point the Slave to the Master when starting the Slave for the first time, which was most unexpected. Of course the Master didn't show up on the Network section of Explorer either.
  • So, after some hours, I finally tried MAPPING the added Network Location to Z: Drive
  • At LONG last, I could finally see that drive Z: in "My PC" when I started Ez Power on the Slave and I was able navigate to the EZP folder on the Master via the Slave Z: Drive!
.
While on the subject of setting up a Networked version:-
  • Is there any elegant way to synchronise the pics folders across Master and Slaves. It seems a pain to have to manually copy the folder across every time a small change is made.
  • Similarly, what is the best way to make the "look and feel" of the Slave match that of the Master. I'm thinking particularly of the Sales Screen Button layout etc, but no doubt there are other settings that need to be mirrored in some way.

Many thanks

It's possible to add 2 more Item Discount buttons.  I'll forward you the details by email.
I don't believe I ever got this e-mail.  I did send an e-mail about paying for I think 3 things of custom work.  Just let me know, thank you.

ezPower / New Product Full Add
« Last post by Courtright on January 24, 2021, 01:43:50 PM »
After all these years I've wanted Manager to be able to access "New Product Full Add" but I only could ever find that option in Product Control.  It has so many featured I've wanted to use however giving managers Product Control access with so much inventory was a no go, so we only used Quick Add all these years which does the job.  However, in playing around in "Purchase Order" I just found under "Tools" > "New Product Full Add"

Is there a reason Quick Add is a function button that can be added to the toolbar but New Product Full Add is not?  Besides being inside Product Control and the Purchase Order screen, is there any other area that comes to mind where New Product Full Add can be used?  It would be great to use this for new inventory (which we get new stuff weekly).  But somewhere easier to access than going to Manager Control > Purchase Order, each time we need to add something new.

Or maybe when you are Adjusting Inventory under General Settings a user has the option to select "New Product Full Add" window or the current Quick Add one.

That's excellent news.

Also, wanted to thank you for adding the Staff Report to the Home Screen! When I had to hide the reports from employees (for the bad reasons mentioned before) it took away their ability to check their commission, unless my GM was there.  And them checking their commission was a driving factor some days.  Such as "I'm at $92 in commission, I bet I can get to $100 before I leave."  So it was sad to take that away from them, but in your newer updates this Staff Report was perfect! Thanks

We can find a way to add the report to the sales screen.  I'll email you with options.

Use the Export Basic and Import Basic.  You can also open the exported file with Excel and delete the lines (item#) you don't want to be included.  This will update the prices but not the inventory.

ezPower / Updating one POS from another POS

My Oceanfront location has been closed for about 4 months bc every Winter we shut down for the Season.  However, during this time at my Norfolk location we have had to change the cost prices and retail prices for hundreds and hundreds of products.  Can we copy a particular set of files from our Norfolk computer and upload them to our Oceanfront computer where they would overwrite old products (old prices) and even add newly added products BUT not change inventory levels?  Is this a possibility?

Trying to find an easier way than having to redo all the price changes again at location 2.  And we're looking to open another store so we need to figure out mass price changes.  We tried the remote service before but we had a lot of issues.  Could only do so many at a time.  Sometimes they wouldn't updated and we would have to do a few times.  So if we could just copy and paste without affecting inventory levels that would be great for now.

Thanks
