AU 1011 Daily Tasks 12/18/2012   • On the phone with Steve. We talked about interface and then on to money and what is needed there. We need to either, get more clients, do training, or work for people. If not, I will need to supplement with other work.
• Started on personal settings but stopped mid-stream. [This was somewhat of a breaking point for me. What this means is that I have years and years left to make everything happen, we need money, and I felt very trapped. I couldn’t sit there and make another feature. Not that it was hard, I just felt buried and trapped. I spent the rest of the day doing LTF stuff and going into town. Good change of pace.]
• Went into Logan to show people the LTF product. Stopped by tons of shops, book stores, and places. Gave demos and gave away lots of copies of the product. Went to Beaver Mountain ski office and talked with the director of the ski school, BATC Bookstore (Bridgerland Applied Technology College), BATC West Campus. my dad’s office, Al’s Sporting Goods, Directive Board Shop, Zummies, The Game Stop, Sports Authority, Seagull Book, Deseret Book, Books of Yesterday, and Oasis Books. Fun and interesting day, 40 miles.

AU 3773 Daily Ideas 3/27/2015   -While at Beaver Mountain ski resort, I rode up the lift with a guy. He is the owner of a men’s clothing store here in Logan, UT. His business jingle is – “How you look is the first message you deliver.” As we talked on the way up the hill on the lift, it got me thinking… What message are we delivering with adilas? Sure it is a flexible work hours but it doesn’t look very exciting. I think it is about time to change that.
-As a kind or/sort of blessing – okay – a real blessing. We’ve been able to fly low and under the radar and for quite a while. That has been a huge blessing for us.
-A while back we were planning some interface changes. As part of that planning, we wanted to do a graphical homepage or sub homepage for each section inside the system. Basically, an organized list of graphics, icons, menus, buttons, and links. Make sure and do some research inside of adilas university on graphical menus, homepages, and icon menus. We may need to back to 12/23/10 interactive map stuff. (Graphical layout)
-When showing page options and layouts, show feeder pages or sections, options, and just in time connections to the pages. (Flow charts)
-One of the icons was going to be for training and education. It is okay to put the training and education graphics and links as under construction. Maybe that will help us to get some funding on training for adilas university per section or page section.
-When showing pages, also include a generic action page, a generic database connections, and even a generic custom page option. Help tell the story through pictures. Just in time connections and flow.
-Put a link to the community funded projects on the graphical start menu pages. This might be a great spot to collect data and sharing as well as let people request pieces and options. Basically, a link or page to go to our forums and/or sharing page.
-On the quick search, we need to add options for media/content. That would be cool.
-We also need to add new keyword options to get to the new and upcoming graphical start menu pages or graphical homepages. Maybe use “gg” for graphics graphic. Or maybe “start” or “ghome” (graphical homepage), or “menu” or something like that. These keywords would then be used to go the correct pages. For example: using the quick search, select invoices and then type “ghome” or select deposits and type in “ghome” to go to the graphical start menu or graphical homepage for the different sections.
-I know all the training is not done yet… but it may really help to provide links, help files, short cuts, graphics, videos, etc. to help out our users. The more they learn on their own… the less we need to teach them and hold their hands. Empower the people!
-When searching the developer’s notebook on adilas university… Allow for more than one search term or phase at a time. Maybe use a “t” (plus sign) or some other character to allow multi search phrases per URL link. Then on the page separate out the phrases and play accordingly. For example: some page name cfm, search = base camp and base camp and anchors or some page name cfm, search = base camp – base camp – anchors. Basically, “base camp”, “basecamp”, and “anchors” – some way to pass in multi’s.
-On the graphical homepages or start menus… We need a section that could control settings both on an individual level as well as on a World or Corporation level. I’d like to show everything, even if the user doesn’t have the correct permissions. Maybe even use a green light, red light indicator to help show permissions.

9:00-10:00 On the phone with Steve. We talked about plans, developers, and where we want to focus. We keep coming back to the train track and railroad analogy. We just want to focus on and own the tracks and train. We don't want to own the market, the hotel, the bank, the school, etc. We want to focus on the data, storage, and processing. All of the other services are up for grabs. Also, we want to make sure that we keep an open model for that allows for a Hybrid shop. Search other notes for some ideas on the Hybrid Shop and Hybrid developer models.
10:00-10:30 Writing out bills, checks, and invoices.
11:30-12:30 Tis is more for the record vs. actual time stuff...I went into town to have a meeting with Bryan and Garrett for lunch. I was anticipating a business meeting to talk about the shop or talk about issues or something. When I got there, we met a Pizza Pie Cafe, there was a bunch of the developers there and they had already payed for my plate. We had a fun lunch party instead of a lunch meeting. The people who were at the lunch party were: Garrett, Will, Dave, Russell, Bryan, Nick, Lincoln, and my self. That was really fun.
12:3-3:00 working with Calvin on his bar code project. We also went over a driver license scan and parse (split-up) feature. I then worked with Garrett on some sub inventory logic and how to virtually draw a line in the sand between tracking inventory on a parent item vs. tracking inventory on a sub inventory level. After that, I met with Jared and my dad about tracking scrap items and selling things online. I then worked with Jared to see some of his YouTube video cataloging that he is doing. We talked about direction and returning and reporting on progress.
3:00-4:00 Recording notes, helping developers, trying to get caught up.
4:00-4:15 Working with Russell on some graphic layouts.
4:15-5:30 Emails, tech support, and signing off on code for Adam and his Hypur project.

Dave has some been a great internal leader and an awesome sounding board for me. I really appreciate all of his help and efforts. We finished the quotes and started talking about leadership and service. Dave has a ton of knowledge in those areas. 30 miles.
10:15-11:00 Finished up on the quote for Beaver Mountain Ski School. They want an online class registration process and application for their ski and snowboard school. This will be time and service based on eCommerce with elements of time, customers, invoices, and special mapping between classes and part numbers (services). It will also use the flex grid to tie things together.

We met with Debbie (ski school director), Travis (mountain manager), and Kristy (office manager). We first talked shop and drew some things out on paper. Mostly concepts of one-to-many-relationships, players, groups, and mixing different pieces. Travis and Kristy were catching on pretty quick but Debbie doesn't know computers that well and you could see some panic in her tone,questions, and appearance. She seemed to relay as we went along and talked about options, features, and benefits of moving into a system and digital model. Great meeting and we set a  model. Great meeting and we set a new meeting time for next Monday to present a full proposal and plan for what we will do for them.

-(4:15 - 6:45)Went back to he office and told the guys about the meeting with Beaver mountain. I then worked with Daniel on some code sign off of Blum and Green Door out of California. The session went very well until we ran into a bug on one of the loyalty points calculations. We spent over an hour and a half trying to fix that bug. We finally got it fixed and got everything all wrapped and done.

Shop 215 Meeting with Beaver Mountian to show our plan and proposal 11/23/2015   We will be presenting our plan and proposal to Travis (mountain manager), Debbie (ski school director), and Kristy (office manager). At that point, we are hoping that we will get the full go ahead on the project.

Notes: Daniel & Russell went with me to the meeting. Daniel did the main presentation and each of us chimed in at different times. We proposed 4 different options. They were: $1550 - simple internal fixes. $2300 - online class registration. $1000 - waiting list option using quotes. $2000 - adding in paperwork and digital waivers.

At the end of the meeting. They were leaning towards the simple internal stuff plus the digital waivers. Also, by way of note, Kris Kofoed was there and helping out as well. Good meeting. We officially still don't have the full go ahead, but it is getting closer.

10:45-6:15 Went into Logan to work. Help Bryan out with his projects. Had a meeting with both Calvin and Bryan to talk about permissions and who used what features. Basically, how do we advertise features and still control who gets them based on admin (universal level) permission and corporation and user (world level) permissions. Calvin is working on an export for Quick Books and Bryan is finishing up a consolidated report for receivables and payables. Next I worked with Daniel and went over plans for Beaver Mountain Ski School. We wrote an email and updated a quote from them. We are still trying to negotiate prices, features, and such. After that, I worked with Bryan and we added some new permissions to his consolidated receivables and consolidated payable reports. We made changes and pushed files live.

I gave Garrett a check and got him all paid up on his current projects. Next, I worked with Russell on a sales page.

We did a number of pages and went through diagrams for the universe level, the galaxy level, the cluster level, and the world level. Lots of drawing and sketching, and talking about flow and options. I find this stuff exciting. The last part of the day was helping Bryan sign off on code for his custom invoice (Excel format). Lots of code clean-up and testing. Good, but busy day. 30 miles.

Shop 273 Beaver Mountain 12/11/2015   Met at the Logan office for Beaver Mountain. Daniel and I pitched some changes and upgrades to help then with their request to help the ski school. We met with Travis, Debbie, and Kris. They had some questions and we talked to them about different options and recommendations. By the end of the meeting, we got the go ahead to do the $3,500 project to help track the lessons and ski school programs. Daniel and I have spent almost $1,000 in planning on this project already. I think that the planning has really paid off. Good stuff.

When we got back to the Shop, we did some math and looked at some dates. We have until the 15th of January to get things done for Beaver. Prior to that, we may end up getting them setup to run some basic Point Of Sale system for the ticket window and the ski school window.

It is fun to see almost 75-80% of all of their needs are already done and/or just need small tweaks. That is really cool.

6:30-9:15 Emails and cleaning up elements of time inside the shop site.
9:15-13:30 Tech support calls for Herban Underground. They had me looking for possible sales data that might be missing. I checked numerous times and in multiple places. There is no data (very small amount) that was recorded yesterday. They may have uncovered a loophole dealing with removing line items from the cart. See the log note inside of Adilas under Herban Underground for more info.
10:30-1:30 Bryan came over and we did some code clean-up and code sign-off on two custom reports for Emerald Fields. They were dealing with quantity price point breaks and custom daily, weekly, and monthly stats for certain part categories.

9:45-10:30 Went into Logan to work. Emails, tech support, and phone calls. On the phone with Shannon talking about training and setup. I also made a sales call for Calvin pitching his label wizard to a company. Other random to do list stuff. 30 miles.
10:30-11:00 Working with Calvin on planning out some of his projects. I kept getting interrupted with phone calls and questions. I was kind of scattered. Calvin is working on capturing 2D bar code information. Calvin ends up on the toughest projects that take a huge skill set and often have many unknown variables.
11:00-11:45 On a phone call with Nick and Russell going over the Adilas World project and what we needed from Nick. We also went over an email from Russell that had specs and requirements for what was needed. The plan is to do a simple couple of pages inside of Adilas to get the code concepts down. We will then take the simple pages that have been coded and work with Russell to dress them up. The final result will be part of both the Adilas World and and the Adilas Marketplace. This is where outside vendors, 3rd party solutions, consultants, and reps can offer products and services to other Adilas users.
11:45-12:30 Working with Calvin again on a project that will create a print queue for writing checks in bulk. We spent some time and worked through existing processes and how to harness existing pieces, logic, and flow. Good session.
12:30-1:30 Working with Bryan on a new project that locks the shopping cart down. The new feature is a cross between a permission and setting and limits the ability to edit prices in the shopping cart. Bryan and I went through tons of pages and made a list of pages that needed to remain open, small tweaks, and absolute blocks and/or locks on certain pages.
1:30-2:30 Working with Steve on a couple tweaks that he had made on sub inventory. We then merged those in to the master branch and pushed the code live. We also talked a little bit about finances and funding. Steve is pretty excited.
2:30-3:00 Working with Daniel on the Beaver Mountain project. We were running late so we didn't really get into it very far. Quick update and light review of where we were at.
3:00-3:30 Helped Bryan get a permission set for his new no price changes in cart mode project. Other light project help to get him setup and going.
3:30-4:45 Working with Russell on the sales page and finishing up the photo gallery section. We then started working on the key players. The topic changed course as we talked about key player groups (12 main players) and then how the business functions are actually more what people want vs having the 12 main players. Basically, we offer certain business functions and basically use the 12 main player groups as tools to achieve the functionality that they want and need. I'm hoping to help Russell focus more on the business functions vs the tools to get the job done. Good session.
4:45-7:00 Working with Bryan to finish up his price lock down for the shopping cart. We went over pages, added permission checks and did some custom logic. We then merged in files into the master branch and push code up to all servers. This was a good project for Bryan. He was able to get into the project and bust it out in one long day vs weeks and weeks. That is awesome and I imagine that people will use it. Good stuff.

4:30-5:15 Recording notes from yesterday.
5:15-6:00 Browsing photos for Adilas concepts, designs, and issues on the Adilas for business web site. This is the project that Russell and I have been working on. Lots of good ideas and concepts. Light brainstorming on how to educate and market the Adilas tool set. The idea is to focus on the business function that we provide. Basically, it all goes back to the Adilas formula 101-Mix (functions,players, concepts) to get Results. That includes the 12 business functions, the 12 main player groups, and the 12 core concepts.
6:45-8:00 Paying bills and cleaning up my schedule in the Adilas shop elements of time. Emails and other cleanup.
9:00-10:30 Went into Logan to work. Met with Alan and we started into a code sign-off process for my cart favorite buttons and being able to switch between Flash (normal) and HTML buttons. This is needed for users who use Apple products such as: I pods, I pads, and I Phones, some of these are Apple products don't natively support Adobe Flash widgets. Anyways, partway through the process, we got a call from Hypur and they needed some help testing their API. So we helped them out for a good half an hour. WE then got back to our stuff. Crazy morning. 30 Miles.

Shop 445 Beaver Mountain 1/14/2016   Met with Daniel at the shop for an early morning session. We worked on a custom page to help do sub tie-ins for the flex grid. Basically the page comes from a host player and helps search some other sub player inside the system. Once it finds the new sub, it then links to a special page that will have some of the flex grid tie-ins that are needed.

Long story made short, this page will help us customize the add mode for flex grid tie-ins. Good stuff.

We talked about a number of quotes here in the shop and then slowly transitioned into Steve, Dave, and Louisa talking about different quotes. Steve is going to be heading up quotes with Dave and I will be a backup person to help with more technical questions. Basically, they'll do some of the leg work and then I'll chime in if needed.

Once Dave and Steve started going on their own quotes, I ended up working with Daniel on his custom reports for Beaver Mountain. He is working on a special report between customers, elements of time, and custom flex grid fields.

Shop 500 Beaver Mountain 1/27/2016   Went with Daniel to the Logan Beaver Mountain Office. We met with Debbie and went over some requests as well as new reports and features that she wanted. We got some new ideas and Daniel took some notes.

We need some ease of use pieces, navigation, quick buttons, and preset values to help make things faster and smoother. She also wanted the horizontal time view to show data per person on a single line. Currently, the horizontal view shows each record on its own line.

Shop 553 Beaver Mountain 1/28/2016   Working with Daniel on the budget and timeline for the Beaver Mountain project. We listed needs out and assigned priorities to the different tasks. I got assigned the limited flex grid add mode stuff (tons of new flex grid settings). We also decided that if they need some new elements of time settings, such as default start and end times, we would need to run that through a different custom project for $500. The rest of the stuff will be on Daniel. Also, we will be planning out some of the new changes vs. sitting together and just coding.

Shop 484 Beaver Mountain 1/28/2016   Spent some time with Daniel planning out a couple new pages for the Beaver project. We spent the first hour and a half brainstorming and writing down what we need to do. I then gave Daniel the task of fine tuning the plan. This is a small paradigm shift for us. We've been accustomed to sitting together and coding line by line and page by page. Hopefully, this will help us get a bigger picture and then start getting into the details later on. My goal is to enable these guys and help them code things on their own.

I'm trying to follow the boy scout teaching model of E.D.G.E. with is for Explain, Demonstrate, Gide, and Enable. We are just trying and experimenting on how things are working... We've been working on all of the other pieces except for the Enable portion. This is the piece that is kinda new for us. Good stuff.

Shop 576 Working with Daniel on the Beaver Mountain project 1/30/2016   On a GoToMeeting session with Daniel going over some needs for a custom report to show the Beaver instructors and their clinics that they have taken. We spent some time brainstorming and talking about where the data is coming from. We then started to do some light coding.

Daniel had uninstalled some C++ code on his machine and it was affecting his Dreamweaver and ColdFusion stuff. We spent 45 minutes messing around with that. I was prepping some tax stuff from Shawn while Daniel was getting his system up and going.

We then started working on some date manipulation stuff. I was trying to lead Daniel in the development process. We kinda struggled on what to do and how to get to the end goal. I gave him a homework assignment to figure out how to get the current month (starting date and ending date) into variables. I'm trying to help teach him how to think on his own vs. just waiting for me to help him out. It's ok, this is just part of the learning process.

We spent quite a bit of time planning and then trying to work out a plan to do a union on three different queries to get a master list of what payee/user id's to pull data back for. Good session and we are making progress.

I then worked with Alan and Daniel on some planning for the horizontal view for the Beaver Mountain project. We went up to the board and spent a good hour going over our plan, what we know, what we want, and how to get there. Alan did a great job and was very beneficial in the planning and understanding of the logic. Both of use were tag teaming and trying to help Daniel catch the vision and where and how to get the project done. Good stuff.

I got some runs in and then helped with the school. After that, I did a couple of hours of adilas work while sitting in the lodge. I then taught my two college classes in the afternoon.

Shop 753 Working on the add limited flex grid page 2/12/2016   Up at Beaver Mountain working on the add limited flex grid page and logic. Funny enough, the current project is for Beaver Mountain and I was there working on their stuff. The add limited flex grid page allows the flex grid to shrink in size to make it not so intimidating to use in the add mode. The edit mode is still pretty big, but at least the add mode could be smaller and easier to use.

Shop 765 Beaver mountain 2/18/2016   Started working on some of the Beaver Mountain stuff. We hit a couple of snags and got derailed on some bugs in a recent code push by Garrett and Will. We spent quite a bit of time on the phone with Garrett going over options and ended up reverting to an earlier code set. Kinda stressful as tons of files were merged into the master branch without being fully checked. Daniel and I were hitting some errors and there were tons of files that had not yet been checked.

As part of our session, I asked Bryan, Russell, and Daniel for some advice to help me know what to do and how best to handle some quality control issues that are starting to come up. Stressful but good session.

Our last run of the day we went off the backside of Beaver down to spring road. We got into some unknown territory and I thought that we had missed the spring road connection back to the front side of the mountain. Anyways, we made it back but it was a little bit stressful. Good day!

We made a lot of progress today and then got stumped on all of the possible use cases (part in, part out, full span, overlapping records, etc.). The horizontal time view shows a single day, all possible assignments based on time slots, per user. We added flags for records that start prior to the date range. We also added flags for records that occur after the end time range. Making progress but it is getting deeper and deeper.

Lots of work on both paper and in code. Great session and we are really close. Lots of testing and pushing on things. It is exciting to see it come out and look so good.

We even started into adding things into the overflow array (double and triple booking stuff). We hit a number of brick walls and ended up deleting code, using paper, MS Excel, and even a full session at the whiteboard. Lots of doors and options (variables, if statements, logic twists, and conflicts). Pretty crazy night. We ended the night at the whiteboard, hopefully with a plan for tomorrow.

Shop 806 Beaver Mountain 3/2/2016   Worked with Daniel up at the board. We got a plan in place and then started into the code work. We didn't get a whole lot of code added but what we did seemed much smoother. We were changing from a multi-layered if statements to a more simpler decision tree-type model.

Our decision tree model was dealing with simple things like, is the slot open or closed? If open, check for new entries. If closed, roll over all other options to the overflow or conflict section. That really seemed to help us out with flow and new logic.

At the end of the session we also worked through a number of the to do list options for the page. Great session and happy with the progress.

We then added some black box stuff for the limited flex grid stuff (custom code on top of other custom code and settings - pretty cool), fixing the student report, other small fixes. Reviewing the project and looking at what we learned.

Shop 808 Beaver Mountain 3/7/2016   Met with Daniel and we worked on a bulk add user/payee page for assigning instructors (user/payees) to a roster. This is a modified user list with checkboxes that allow multiple assignments all at the same time. The action page then added a piece of flex grid for each user. We are working from elements of time and assigning multiple user/payees at a time. The code on the page will allow for other multi assignments with minimal tweaks due to the way things were setup. Good session.

Shop 899 Finished up the Beaver Mountain project 3/7/2016   On a GoToMeeting session with Daniel to finish up the Beaver Mountain project. This was round 1 of the Ski School Scheduling Application. Daniel and I tested some code, merged files into master branch, and then uploaded and tested files online. We also created a couple of graphics and icons for some of the custom interfaces. It feels to good to get the first round up and fully online. This has been a almost a four month project for us. Tons of new improvements and new features. Good stuff.

Shop 756 Errors on Sub Inventory 3/8/2016   On a GoToMeeting session with Steve. We talked about moving clients to other servers (manual load balancing) and other requests. We also worked on a small bug for sub inventory. It was kinda hard to find and we finally got it figured out. Sub inventory has tons of twists and turns to help make it work and run smoothly. Super deep. At the end, I showed Steve some of the new features for the Beaver Horizontal Time View. We went in and played around on the Beaver site to go over some of the new features. Good stuff.

Shop 357 Brandon Gone All Friday 3/11/2016   Good day on the hill. Got ready and helped with a school in the morning. After that, I went and did some riding with both Cody and Adam. We were just messing around on the little beaver trails and lift. Good stuff. After lunch, Cody and I went and did a backside run off of second peak. Super fun run. We then ran another shuttle and did a second one. Adam and Karlie went with us on this one. The snow was even better than the first one. Super fun and good times. I really enjoyed it. Sometimes it is fun to remember why you do what you do.

Shop 811 Beaver Mountain 3/16/2016   Met with Daniel to go over the Beaver Mountain Project. The project is already done. This meeting was a recap and see what we learned meeting. We also talked about finances and getting all squared up on monies and billing. The last topic of the day was dealing with visualization of data and using charts and graphs. Daniel has a class up at the university that needs a project that deals with visualization of data and different things. We spent quite a bit of time looking into some d3.js options. The d3 is short for data driven documents. The .js part deals with javascript libraries. Cool stuff.

Shop 1100 General office stuff 3/29/2016   Recording notes, light clean-up, etc. On the phone with Jim from Emerald Fields going over some questions and such.

Note from Bryan about the Beaver Mountain Horizontal time view. Bryan asked about all of the +'s (pluses) in the empty blocks. Maybe thing about doing something different to help add or allow for the adding of new time elements and/or classes. He said that the page just looked busy.

Shop 985 Brandon out of the office all day 4/1/2016   Went up to Beaver Mountain. Ended up giving an hour long training session to the Cammeil and Debbie. They gave me a small list of requests. Most of them dealt with navigation and removing un-needed fields from the add/edit page on the flex grid. That seems to be a common request. Basically, people love the functionality, but it looks or feels complicated. They want it to be a more simple type interface.

Part way through the day, I spoke with Travis Seeholzer about adilas and what we can offer to Beaver Mountain. I had a great day on the hill and got in a lot of just fun freeriding. I ended up spending all afternoon riding with students that I had in my college classes. Good day.

Shop 1698 Meeting with Beaver Mountain 8/3/2016   Went into to Beaver Mountain to do a POS (point of sale) demo. I took a bunch of POS hardware pieces to help with the demo. I met Dave Forbis there as well as Kris Kofoed. We met and talked for a bit and then I setup my stuff and mostly interacted with Kristy Seeholzer. We kinda had our own little meeting going on while everybody else was chatting and shooting the breeze. Good session and I tried to point them to use Dave Forbis as a good adilas contact. Good stuff.

Here are a few notes from our meeting:
- On all new items, default the show on the web setting to off or no. They don't want there stuff to show up automatically. That could be a good corp-wide setting.

- They would love a feature for cost plus a percentage - either a pricing model and/or a discount calculation. Technically, they could do it right now in the advanced add to cart by changing the mark-up (calc based off of cost) but they might want an easier tool. Just an idea.

Shop 2013 ftp check 11/22/2016   On a phone call with Bryan. We went over some of the needs for clients to be able to name their fields, determine display options, and virtually show/hide the fields that were needed. We are seeing people wanting to mix standard with custom and make things follow their needs and flow. This could be adding things and/or taking things away. Basically cutting the number of clicks to get something done (wire jobs).

After our phone call, Bryan came over to my house to get a couple of checks. While he was over, we looked more into the custom code we did for Beaver Mountain and the add limited flex grid settings and functionality. Lots of interest in these dynamic display options. This has been building for years now. Interesting to see how it coming back around.

Shop 2105 Bug Fixes 12/24/2016   Working on a sub inventory bug fix for showing the sub attributes. We were getting some errors when text values looked like dates. This was pretty common for things like batch numbers and such. We added some logic to make sure it was really a date before formatting it.

I also reached out and contacted different developer's and got reports from them. I made a couple of small tweaks to the Beaver Mountain site stuff.

Shop 2182 Beaver Mountain Changes 1/4/2017   Working on some changes for Beaver Mountain. I added a daily student search to the printable lesson schedule report. I also went into the flex grid and allowed for the main tie-in id numbers to be changed. This allows for a piece of flex grid to be easily switched between id numbers of the same application types. For example: This allows for a piece of flex grid to be switched between one element of time to another. This is also true for invoices to invoices, customers to customers, expenses to other expenses, etc. For Beaver Mountain, this means being able to take a student (info held in the flex grid tie-ins) and reassign that student to a new and/or different lesson. This will help add more functionality to the flex grid application. Pushed up files and tested.

Shop 2130 Adilas Time 1/5/2017   On a GoToMeeting session with Steve, Alan, and Nick. We started out the day talking about an upcoming meeting with the server guys and trying to schedule a group meeting to talk about world building (database stuff and code stuff on our end) and backend technologies such as servers and data center stuff.

We then broke into individual work sessions. I was working on the Beaver Mountain horizontal time view page for scheduling ski school lessons. That page is pretty deep and pulls data from multiple places and shows it all in a nice horizontal time view.

Later on, Steve and I had a meeting to talk about plans and ideas. Here are some of the ideas from the meeting.
- fast track to help people get to their magic number - kinda like a reverse snowball to build people. Normal snowballs go toward solving debt, a reverse snowball would be building up dependables
- keep putting more tools in the shed
- offer different services including basic web sites
- if is easier to sell a full package vs. every possible module or special service
- as more and more technology comes to pass, we could roll more and more features together
- skate where the puck will be or is going to be
- working towards an unlimited model - what do you want and need - it is all included
- model of a base starting point and then charge for storage, processing, and bandwidth - fee based usage
- get some percentage things in place with our inner adilas family members
- as more and more clients use our services, we could even drop our prices.
- we need to head to more mobile
- Steve and I were playing with some numbers and projects - that is fun to play with some of the numbers - maybe look more into this and keep pushing and forecasting - make it more of a plan/possibilities
- the footprint - what impact are you on the company's earnings
- there are tons of other possible services such as storage, migration, cold storage, custom code, consulting, training, setup, ecommerce, usage, bandwidth, etc.
- allow clients to virtually manage and/or drive their own systems - what do they want, what do they want to call it, how much, how many, how long, how much data, what other needs and/or wiring?
- keep building on a generic model. we can then add skins, templates, and themes to help customize for different verticals
- gps tracking and other 3rd party options. white labeling and other options.
- keep building - piece by piece - slow and steady wins the race
- sometimes it comes back to permissions, settings, and relationships
- there may end up being more and more API socket connections - plan for that and help sew things together.
- remember training and helping others see the vision of what is going on and the potential that is out there
- keep building towards full world building pieces and concepts
- mini conversions, sub inventory, sub part categories, qr codes, etc. Technology keeps going, we need to keep playing and trying to advance the ball.
- Try to take things more and more to the dynamic level. Settings, permissions, database stuff, and underlying backend structure.
- other project coming down the pipe line - tiered pricing matrix stuff, sub inventory options for ecommerce, more balance sheet stuff (watchers and feeders), more stuff with elements of time (rentals, reservations, gps, rfid tag, sub payroll, sub "any" assignments).

Shop 2140 Adilas Time 1/9/2017   On a GoToMeeting session with Alan, Steve, and Eric. We started out going over current projects and what the priorities were. I gave a small list and then we talked about it. For the record, here is a small list of things that I saw as needed:

- Fix the forgot and reset password section. The old code only deals with a single server. We now have multiple servers that need to play as one.

- Planning out the next phases and projects.

- Changes to the Beaver Mountain site. They need some new code and logic to help automate things on the horizontal view of time (custom interface page for Beaver).

- Circle back around and work on the dollars off for in-line discounts.

- Scan and finish up the year end stuff. We talked about this and I will be sending it to Craig.

- Sub inventory updates and changes. We had some complaints that the sub attributes were being displayed in a horizontal view and you couldn't see everything all at once. We need to build some of those pieces into a vertical display.

- We need to go through the adilas API and update documentation and do some fine tooth combing and testing.

- Work on the adilas user guide.

- On sub inventory, we need to preset the checkbox for items marked as subs only on the mini add/edit PO line items page. This will help save a click or two.

- On invoice line items, we need to add a way to look-up possible subs incase something was miss recorded in the cart. The users want a "subs" button similar to what we just released in the view cart page. The cart stuff allows us to convert parent inventory to child inventory. The invoice stuff would just help with updates and recording the right RFID tags and other sub info.

After the morning meeting, Steve and Alan started working on testing state API's and such. I started in on some of the sub inventory tweaks and changes. We all did our own thing and interacted as needed. We had a client get on and work with Alan and Steve. We then had another developer get on and work with me on a possible custom cart and item based flex grid issue. We tested as much as possible and saw that it worked according to what we tested.

The rest of the time was spent answering questions, working on our own projects, and pushing the ball forward.

Shop 2369 Adilas Time 3/6/2017   Steve and I got on a GoToMeeting session. We talked about who is managing what, internal communications, external communications, and using version control systems more globally. We are currently having a number of guys who are using the version control software and some who are not. We are seeing some problems and disconnects between the guys who are on the version control and those who are not. Sometimes it feels like we are going so fast, we can't even slow down enough to all get on the same page. However, if we did, things would work so much better and be all together smoother.

Part way through the session, we split up and did our own little work sessions. I worked on the Beaver Mountain stuff. Trying to finish up this project.

Shop 2344 Alan Time & General 3/6/2017   Touched base with Alan on his projects and then started to work on the Beaver Mountain horizontal time view page. I spent quite a bit of time writing out a code summary to help me get the full flow. This is where you take hundreds and thousands of lines and write it in a summary type view. By the time you are done, you can see the logic tree without all of the super tiny details. This can take a huge scary page of code and make it look approachable and not as scary.

See attached for the simple logic tree and/or code sample files. I pushed up both the simple logic tree and the real file for comparison.

Shop 2373 Adilas Time 3/13/2017   On a GoToMeeting session with Steve. We chatted and talked about funding, developers, progress, and then rolled into some code tweaks. We were looking for a potential bug, but it ended up being an after the fact sort that was messing things up. Kinda interesting. The problem came when using the new display template that allowed for sorting and special exports. Unknown to us, it was taking whatever the data was and then sorting it by the first visual column. This new sort was different than what the database was sorting by. We didn't ask it to do that, it was just kinda hardcoded or happened automatically. This little flip flop messed up a running total that went from line to line and summed things up as it went. Once you added the other sort option, the sum was out of order. It took us a while to figure out what was happening.

After that, we both worked on different projects and did a small work session. I did some more work on the Beaver Mountain horizontal time view page. Steve was doing phone calls and custom reports.

The custom page will now show, in the custom horizontal time view, what lessons are assigned to whom, even if the assignments are extra and done through flex grid tie-ins. This was about a 10 hour project just by it self.

I pushed it up this afternoon and showed them how to use it. On to the next request.

Shop 2378 Adilas Time 3/21/2017   On the developer meeting with Steve and Calvin on a GoToMeeting session. Calvin showed us where he is at on the mini conversion project. He is just starting to code things and get some of the new pages started. We then talked about the abundant model we are in and where we are headed. Lots of clients, lots of projects, and tons of options. Calvin then showed us some info and code he and another guy are working on for a mobile app using adilas data. Great start and making progress.

Steve and I worked on some database updates and talked about some of our guys and who needs what. Good chat.

After that, Eric popped in and we went over some ideas for the sub queues. These are an extension that will be built into the existing customer queue. Basically, a way to sub classify or categorize the normal customer queue (who is next or who is next in line). Good session and we made a full page of notes. See attached for the brainstorming documentation and such.

At the end of the session, Steve and I chatted about elements of time, rentals, reservations, and what we could do there. I showed him the Beaver Mountain horizontal time view page and we talked about basic calendar type features in adilas. Steve has a demo in a day or so for a campground that might be interested. As a side note, the campground host said that the existing software for campgrounds is not that good. That might be something to explore.

Shop 2485 Adilas Time 4/20/2017   On a GoToMeeting session with Steve and Eric. Steve and I talked and worked together for the first hour and then Eric came in to work with me on the sub queue stuff for the customer/client queues. Steve and I were talking about some of the current projects as well as some ideas on how to get and keep good talent like we currently have. I showed him a demo on the sub queue stuff and then we went online and looked at the Beaver Mountain stuff.

Steve has a campground and cabin rental place that is looking for something similar but based off of a location-type model. Imagine all of the locations being listed down the left side and the date range being listed along the top. Then you could see what is rented, reserved, and what is available at a glance. Great idea. That might be fun to build just as a tool or other view of the time homepage or optional custom report view.

Once Eric and I got working, we kept pushing on the sub queue stuff. We added visual options to the advanced queue search and then started working on corp-wide settings for showing and using the queue outside in ecommerce land. Good session and making some good progress.

They are slowly wanting more and more info to start flowing over to adilas. The new web site will be a WordPress site designed by a local guy (Matt Logan) and coded by some developers in California. Good meeting. Lots of fun stories mixed with a little bit of business. Pretty casual.

Shop 3154 Adilas Time 11/1/2017   Morning GoToMeeting session with Steve. We met with Wayne about defaults for the parts or general inventory table. This is for imports of general items (part numbers). We met with Alan about questions on the sales tax expansion project. I then started to do some planning for sub payroll project for Beaver Mountain (see EoT # 3197).

Towards the end of the session, I was talking with Steve about using elements of time to help track the _z axis and sub phases and sub locations. The _z axis deals with space or layering type details. What happens to something inbetween or as it goes from stage to stage or phase to phase? Does it move, change, morph, expand, contract, build, destroy, etc.

We also talked about some requests from a client dealing with their specific needs and processes. See attached for a copy of the email. It is requesting some help with the PO process and basically asking for the _z level tracking options that Steve and I were talking about.

Shop 3312 Beaver Mountain 12/14/2017   Went into the Beaver Mountain, Logan office. I met with Debbie and Bri (Brhianna Malcolm) and we did an adilas training session on the custom interface stuff for the Beaver Mountain Ski School. Bri is the new office manager and Debbie is the Ski School Director. Good session and they were both quite proficient at the program. Bri seemed to pick things up quickly and Debbie has used it for a while no (a couple of seasons).

They did give me a list of things that they wanted done and/or that I noticed as they were working. See attached for a scanned copy of my scribbles and notes. I will also list there out here.

Notes from a meeting with Beaver Mountain:
- On the calendar (time homepage), they want the arrows to keep going for next and previous. Currently, they only do the current month, the previous month, and the next month. They don't keep going in either direction. They would like that.

- They would really like the abiltity to flip the lesson (time) templates. I too have had a need for that. The problem is that gets into settings and flip/flopping things. Maybe our idea of setting up time template overrides would work in that case. Just an idea. As a side note, the time template overrides are having the system update the template settings vs. having the user (code or interface) pass the settings in. That way, they would always be correct and controlled on the system level.

- We found a bug when setting up the reoccurring elements of time (sub dates and times). If the element of time was unassigned, it only picked up the lesson (element of time) on the initial day. Once a valid instructor (payee/user) was setup, the reoccurring lesson dates showed up on the horizontal time view page. Otherwise, they did not. Small little bug.

- They, Beaver Mountain Ski School, would love to have a drag and drop type interface where they could do bulk assignments of both instructors and students. Imagine a list of possible lessons (main elements of time), a list of available instructors (payee/users), and a list of students (either real customers or simple person flex grid records - quick assignments without a real person being attached). What if you could pull in the student that have the same levels, match them with an instructor, and assign all of those pieces to an element of time. It would also be cool if you could even create a new element of time and make the assignments from there as well. Think of drag and drop, pools, and a one-pager that does it all. That would be pretty cool. Maybe an HTML 5, JQuery, AJAX, or Flash app. Lots of options.

- When editing a flex grid record, the ability to change the main id was not present when clicking on an edit link from a specific page. We need that to be present at basically all times or a quick way to get to it. The page in question was the print student list page. The important thing is making sure that the ability to change the main flex grid id (who is the host) is the important thing here.

- On the flex grid... we have started a project called the limited flex grid, where the users could order and put the fields where they wanted them. They could show/hide fields, setup custom aliases, set defaults, and somewhat customize the 40+ flex grid fields. Well, that project is only part way done. They would like to see the project get finished and be able to help control both the normal add and edit pages as well as the limited add page. If I had my way, we would allow for the limited (ultra control) settings to cascade into the normal add/edit flex grid page. I would also love for an easy toggle to go between the simple or limited view and the full or expanded view (show everything). That would be super cool. Just to help with documentation, here are a couple of the page names that help deal with this project:
flex_grid_home.cfm
add_edit_flex_titles.cfm
add_limited_flex_grid_settings.cfm
search_additional_tieins.cfm
add_limited_flex_grid.cfm
add_edit_flex_grid.cfm

- Setup and finish the duplicate elements of time page and functionality. They, Beaver Mountain would also like to be able to duplicate elements of time with their flex grid tie-ins and assignments. Beaver used elements of time mixed with flex grid tie-ins to handle their rosters and/or who is signed up to teach each day. Lots of that information doesn't change very often and it would be awesome if they could copy and/or duplicate records over and over again. It would save time and make it easier. This could be as easy as adding in a checkbox saying, copy/duplicate flex grid records. This is more of a general question, but what about other subs of time? Do those play into the copy/duplicate process? Just curious.

- On the horizontal time view page, if an instructor is chosen, make sure that their payee/user id gets passed along and across. We added in some code to help set things to unassigned, but we may need to be able to overwrite that.

- They would also love to get more involved in the payroll and sub payroll process (see element of time # 3197 for some light planning). That would really help them out as they already have tons of the data tied to the elements of time. They have the dates (main and sub dates), the instructors (payee/users), the lesson types (time templates), the students (customers or flex grid tie-ins), etc. It sure would be cool to get everything tied in and reporting back to help with sub payroll and such. It also sounds like Debbie is interested in working with us to build some of that out. That would be awesome to have someone to help prototype things and give feedback and suggestions. Good stuff.

Once again, see attached for a quick scan of the notes. The actual notes here on this page have more details, but sometimes it helps to see the original notes.

Shop 3389 Adilas Time 1/10/2018   Working on the Beaver Mountain admin page. Added in functionality to be able to flip the page backwards or forwards one week at a time. The buttons work like pagination except it deals with a weekly date range instead of a certain number of records per page. It makes the admin interface more of a page turning application or a classic feel like a schedule book.

Chatted on the phone with Calvin going over API socket connection for his desktop application. Also did some light planning for the upcoming live adilas training session. Here are a couple of random notes... no special order at this point.

- Sell the sizzle...

- Think GEO tourism for selling the venue and location of Logan, UT. 1.5 hours North of Salt Lake, hiking, fishing, history, USU campus, shopping, mountains, rivers, valley, Bear Lake, etc. 10 minutes from Logan, you could be in the mountains.

- Guest speakers - concepts, vision, processes, procedures, etc.

- Highlight new features, new updates, and upcoming projects. Think of things like Campaign Rise (social media and custom wire job for elements of time), Beaver Mountain Ski Area and Ski School, Steve's campground stuff, Plant phases and cultivation stuff, Russell's new custom email stuff, ecommerce, WordPress integration, white label stuff, sales tax changes, new discount options, etc.

- Show what has happened, what is happening, and what will be coming down the pipeline. Maybe show a timeline with some key points and historical stepping stones.

- World building concepts and how different clients are problem solving with adilas as their worlds change and progress. Try to focus on 3D world building and the concepts of the data assembly line. Show how some of that stuff is already playing out.

- Different topic, but I would really like to get some sites out there like billboards pointing back to adilas and what we are doing. These are all of the main concepts such as 3D world building, data assembly line, creating a system, API sockets and playing at the wall, etc. These might be great projects for Russell to give his developers who are going through the program at Bridgerland. Good stuff.

Shop 4203 On site training for Beaver Mountain 12/10/2018  

Went into town to do some training for a new office girl by the name of Hatti. She works with Beaver Mountain Ski School as an office person. We did some adilas training on elements of time (lessons), customers (students), users (employees and staff), and flex grid (custom fields and multi assignments). Good meeting and Hatti seemed to pick up on things pretty quickly. I did some simple drawings and we went through a number of scenarios and features.

Towards the end of the conversation, I popped in and talked with Travis (owner and manager). We chatted about simple POS (point of sale) options, merchant processing, and digital timecards. I told him that they, Beaver Mountain, are only using about 15% of what is possible under the adilas roof. They are super busy right now leading into the season, but hopefully I planted a few seeds and some potential.

Shop 4231 Working on some changes for Beaver Mountain 12/11/2018  

Made some custom code changes for Beaver Mountain (local ski area) for their ski school. Added some new ease of use buttons, added some status filters to a couple of queries, uploaded and tested new code.

Light research for a different client on bitcoin and other crypto currencies. Reading over an executive summary for a new startup company in the financial and merchant processing side of things. This is my own comment, but I'm seeing more and more financial based company taking an interest in offering a solution and/or harvesting existing pieces the further along we go. They seem to be the bigger players who help drive solutions forward. It makes sense, but it is kinda fun to see the working and movements of the financial and merchant processing guys in action. Everybody is trying to carve out their space and create a valid and relevant solution. Interesting.

Getting things your way - the power of a custom solution. Steve and I were talking about core vs custom development. Where we are at right now is letting clients step up and have us build certain features. There is no possible way that we could shoulder all of the requests. We just can't give away anything for free right now. The companies that want to play and pay, they will succeed. Custom software as a service (SaaS) allows our clients to build out their own dreams and processes.

We were talking about finishing up some of the existing projects. Sometimes we like to dream and keep building and building. Maybe we need to circle back around and finish some of the outstanding projects. Steve was talking about - is this mission critical or can it maybe wait or hang out a bit? We are trying to get a better handle on this.

Yesterday, Steve and I were talking about mixed server technologies. Steve was also saying, as a reminder, that as we keep building, if we have outside services or 3rd party products, they will constantly need updating and keeping up with the new changes that keep coming. Even though some of the new pieces may look cool and be all gui (graphical user interface) and such, you still need them to be updated with the functionality that keeps rolling out the door.

Dustin was working on some cultivation stuff and had an issue with a pound sign (#) not passing through his page flow. We jumped on and did a little work around code to help him out. I spent some time and reworked the sub inventory searches for parent items as well as sub barcodes and sub RFID tags. I made a couple other simple changes and tested and pushed up some new code. Eric popped in and had a couple of questions as well. Pretty quite morning.

At the end of the session, I pumped out some quick changes to an employee report for Beaver Mountain Ski Area. Pushed up the code and let Debbie know that the new code was up and online.
