Re: BPCS & Surcharges

[Mhamilton8685@xxxxxxx]

Bill,

An associate and I have implemented enhancements to BPCS V6.01, order entry 
and billing to add lines to orders after shipment and before billing for a 
client in the wire industry.  They like you add charges for base metal and also 
for plating.  These changes were to green screen, but did not require 
modification to either order entry or billing.  I would be happy to provide a 
functional 
spec and quote if you are interested.

I have also investigated using either kits or assortments in the past.  I am 
not sure now why that was not a good option, but it might be worth 
investigating again.

Please feel free to contact me offline and we can discuss further.
