QBPOS V10 Overview

On September 27th, 2010 Intuit released QBPOS Version 10.  This version represented a major departure from prior versions in terms of the user interface, a restructuring of the product license levels that are available and even the removal of certain feature functions. 

 

While the removal of many functions was problematic, V10R5 brought back much of what we needed and is a great start.

 

Great News  - QBPOS V10R9!

V10R9 shows great promise over the initial release of V10. 

 

   A quick looks shows:

        Sales receipt column customization have been returned

1.        Custom filters for some lists have returned
          Some keyboard shortcuts are added or back
          Many little things fixed that were never a big deal
          A form of list edit is back
          A form of select from list is back
          Practice Mode is back  
2.  

 

At SDG Business Solutions, we would like to thank Intuit for these enhancements.

 

What We Would Love to See in a Future Release

 

Following is our list of the top 5 features and tools that we think current users may still want back for V10

 

Open Windows - In the new version you can't have multiple windows open.  That means you can't run a report and switch over to make a sale unless you close out of the report(s).  And it is not  limited to reports.  There is a new function called "Switch To"  that will preserve some information, but it is not quite the same.  We hope to have a training video up soon on Swith To.

 

 

Customers and Sales Screen - While you can drill down to the customer from the sales screen, much of the information that was previously presented for you is no longer there.  Rewards status, account balance and even the option to enter a purchase order number for tracking as a company have been removed.

Status Bar - Along the bottom of the screen had long been a bar that was filled with useful information, including that you had reminders to deal with, the logged in user, list count information (though that is displayed on the list screen now) what workstation you were on and more.  This is now gone
