e-cat --there is a flood of issues --


While I was talking with Greg Guyitt at Auto Barn -- Ian from Allistion calls ... ok ...we have 3 way conversation ....

Here are some more issues .....
- if you have an A listed on a part --that is telling you it is an ALTERNATE ... we can control alternates but ..and get ready for this ..the HUGE DUMB think in EXPLORIS ( NexPart by WHI ) is that there is NO report to list all past alternates - in case you want to flush and update ... If you see a part that is linked and you think it is an obsolete link--verify and see your store manager who will struggle to remember how to KILL the link--but once gone --the extra part goes from the e-cat ... Greg G will give you an example

-Greg is mentioning - gee --too bad we can't get rid of RED PADFS in FRI ... and then a light bulb comes on in that dark place.... and you know what -- we just flushed the RED PADS from the PRIMARY PAGE and moved them to the secondary ( for now - eventually to get trashed all together )

- Ian mentions an example of TREMENDOUS number of duplicates ... had a hard time remembering where he saw it .... we lucked out and got it on 2008 F150 front pads ... I have included the Web-Link2 image -- as I get sick and tired of switching e-cat's on my Exploris --the Web-Link 2 will give you a good enough example .... This is truly a glich and the OLNL:Y WAY to fix is to make sure the e-cat guys in Raleigh know ... but wait a minute ..at the Monday night staff meeting all but Ken admitted they no long bother to notify e-cat using PRS ..and we know that e-cat staff do NOT READ the Product Feedback option on the old outdated link ... you guys may have to have an attitude adjustment ... and start using the PRS ( Product Resolution System ) ...click here for other articles on PRS ... please ....click now --I am waiting ...please ....
