It's been nearly a year since the last update to the Wessex Pricing Program, there haven't been any embarrassing glitches revealed (phew!) so this new update sorts out some features that were fine originally but now feel rather "clunky".
The new update is version 4.4.15 (you can check your version by going to "Help" > "About" on the main program screen).
The first change is - instead of the measurement system (Mm. Cm. or Inches) being shown as three separate selections below the dimension boxes, it is now in one box next to them. Simply click the box to change.
Previously if the collection date worked out to be a Sunday then that date would be moved on to a Monday. Now you can set the days of the week that you are closed and any collections for those days are moved on.
The final new feature is when you view an individual work ticket, by holding the mouse over the moulding Id you can see some information about that moulding, this now includes the current amount in stock. (This assumes you keep your moulding stock up to date.) Also this stock amount is printed on the work ticket.
The messages printed at the bottom of the invoice have been made easier to change. Go to "Setup" > "Options" and select the "Print" tab.
You can choose to hide the collection date, just show the date, or show the date and a short message.
In addition you can set a footer message of up to 115 characters.
Hope you find the updates useful. 😊
Hi. I've downloaded WPP4 and after a couple of days playing around with it, reading these blogs and the help files, but I still can't get started. When I open the programme, I get a pop up saying "Unable to check database status (no records)" I've downloaded the updated moulding .xls, but it wont let me save it anywhere. I've deleted and re-downloaded the programme, but it's still the same. The bottom line is I have no mouldings to input. I'd like to use suppliers as Wessex and AN Other.
