Vantage v6 quote print

It is my understanding that unless a problem is extremely critical (such as module or major screen totally unusable) there will not be a lot of changes in 6.0 and prior. Sad to say but you can probably expect patch releases to slow to virtually nil, especially for 5.2 but also for 6.0. The majority (if not near 100%) of programming staff is devoted to Sonoma. It really looks like there will be very limited functionality added even to 6.1 and mainly just bug fixes to it. I believe they are strongly urging everyone to migrate to 6.1 and wait there until they are ready for Sonoma. One way of pushing us along will be lack of response on issues already fixed in 6.1 but not earlier. The answer will always be to upgrade to 6.1. Fixing earlier releases opens the door to tipping something else over thus causing even more distraction from Sonoma.

I guess I can't blame Epicor for this attitude. Putting resources on earlier versions detracts from Sonoma and its eventual stability (as well as being on schedule). Even though we might not go to Sonoma until early 2006 I would rather it have as stable an initial release as possible so that subsequent work on it is in enhancements not bug chasing. Upgrading from 6.0 to 6.1 is not supposed to be that much of a change (I'll find out in July) so that may be the fastest option and a lot easier than trying to convince them to address it in 6.0.

Good morning all.

Back in January I reported a problem, to Epicor, regarding the discount
information not being transferred to the Crystal report. This problem still
hasn't been resolved in v6.0 although they have patched the problem in v6.1.
I've been trying to argue my point with Epicor but it seems that I'm not
going to have any joy. Has any of you guys, on v6.0, come across the same
problem? If I can get enough support we'll get this changed in the base
software rather than just having a mod created.

Thanks in advance.
