118 patch

We installed the 118 patch last night and by all indications it looks like
our inventory is back to normal and the "138" A/R invoicing error is gone.

Thanks to Tim Ligas and the development staff for resolving this issue
effectively.

We have made it standard practice to backup our database (which Epicor
recommends anyway) and also to print the Stock Status report before applying
any patches/fixes to our database. The Stock Status gives us a reference to
go by for changes to our Inventory. I would strongly recommend that anyone
affected by this patch do the same.

P.S. From the pa510117.wri file from Epicor:
BEFORE BEGINNING THE INSTALLATION OF THE UPDATE, BE SURE TO BACK UP ALL YOUR
CURRENT PROGRESS, SQL, AND EMANUFACTURING SOFTWARE. YOU SHOULD BE SURE TO
BACK UP YOUR \VANTAGE, \PROGRESS, AND \EPICOR DIRECTORIES. If you experience
problems during the installation, you may need to restore your current
Progress and eManufacturing software from this backup.
