-I got an email back from our sub-contractor and he couldn’t figure out how to do and set-up the flex grid. Maybe I need to help that out. He is pretty tech savvy and if he can’t do it, maybe I need to dummy it way down. -What do the users want? Interface and feeds. A client said, “Adilas is very good at giving me what I ask for. It isn’t very good at telling me what I need.” What is the user’s point of view? Push vs. pull technology. -If the server is under a huge load, some of our next “n” loops may be compromised. This is especially true when adding new main id numbers. We got a report from our tech contractor that one invoice got line items from two different stores. Basically, the main invoice number was duplicated or set to the same number. (The solution could be to go back to an auto number.) -Leave enough time to wrap things up… very important. -Push vs. Pull Technology – on the sub home pages… it might be cool to provide quick links to pre-determined reports and views. Once a user lands on those subpages, they could then refine the search. Instead of making them search for everything (you would need some search experience) help them get to the data quickly and then refine to get what they want. For example: Invoices, show a button for the advanced search, the basic search, last 10, 20, 50, 100, daily, yesterday, weekly, monthly, ytd. Show options for groups, totals and such. Basically, from one spot, visually help the users get at their data. Help guide and hold their hand. Then page could easily have 20-30 icons, links and buttons. Or create a dashboard for each homepage or main application type. (First page fold options – only pull options. Dashboard both push and pull options.) -From post-it note: Be your own style… this includes even shutting things down from time to time to do upgrades and tweaks. Let the people know what is going on and think service… |
