More griping about P.O.s in RMS 2.0

I recently upgraded to 2.0 and I cannot believe how HORRIBLE the new
P.O. "Add Items" window is. Did anyone at MS actually test it before
they added it to 2.0?

It works fine for a vendor with only a few items, but otherwise, it's
a nightmare. Sometimes I'll add a bunch of items in the window and
then find that an item is not in the list and I'll have to look-up the
item and add it via Quickscan. But then I'll inadvertently 'X' out of
the window and lose everything.

Speaking of X-ing out, I thought they would have created a 'prompt to
save' when hitting the main 'X" in Purchase Orders. This is a basic
function of almost every computer program. I cannot believe they
haven't added it to the PO screen.

I agree about the prompt to save. At the very least it can be annoying, at
worst you lose hours of work. As far as the add items screen, make sure you
are on the latest hotfix as I believe they fixed some problems with it in
later fixes.
