ERP, CRM, MRP, SCM, ERM... there's a whole bowl of alphabet acronyms that speak to mining, producing, processing, transporting, responding to and satisfying our needs - consumer needs. Whether you're at the beginning of the supply chain building systems that support production of raw materials or at the end point of optimizing repair services, each element along the way is carefully managed.

How often do we stop to think of the logistic complexities, the simultaneous activities and the competing conflicts that go into supplying life in the twenty first century? As global markets expand and our appetites for 'new' grow - so too do our demands on: supply chain management, production planning, customer relations, field service management and enterprise resource management.

Can you imagine what management systems would be like without an intuitively interactive, functional and visually appealing interface! What would those system cost without software components? There's a reason why Solutions Schedule is the choice of enterprise software developers. Welcome to Solutions Schedule .NET version 6.0!

New Pricing Structure

We have added a new component (pardon the pun) to our pricing structures - you will now find an upgrade option on each of the product 'Stores' pricing pages. This new addition also necessitated a modification to our New Subscription pricing for those customers with expired product subscriptions. (this one for our friend Jacob in Toronto).

Tech Tip - Using Third Party Edit Controls with Solutions Schedule .NET v6.0

Solutions Schedule .NET v6.0 (dbiSchedule.dll) uses standard text and combo boxes as its edit control. There are many cases where a third party control would be an ideal option for adding intuitive, direct in-line edit capability. In this how to example we use the concept of a third party date picker control that has a drop down calendar.

To use a third party control in the resource list area of Solutions Schedule .NET v6.0, select a control that exposes the keys strokes being pressed to the host. The host control does not monitor for key strokes so we look to the third party control for this purpose.

With the third party control established, interrupt the control’s current edit mode process and monitor the third party control for the navigation keys being used, determine the new cell to go to after a navigation key is pressed, and then place the resource list back into edit mode.

Following are the steps are required to use a third party control:
