parts can drop in price - check this example out
I have 80,000 part numbers and prices from USA --and doing comparisons on US to Canada prices ...came across this one ...
ECC 71-4623 ---- ford has CRASHED the price due to hi warranty rates ...and CARQUEST has worked with Wells ignition to match. Go to your parts ledger and see the price these where selling for -- and compare the price now -- Price drop happened July 7th ...so your June copy of the 2-20 report will still have old prices .... who says feedback forms don't work. Info from Peter McNally.

benefit claims
This is a very fast note ( done from home ) -- remember that the time is FAST approaching for claiming drug costs from the OLD drug plan -- and the new drug plan company will NOT cover it. If you have old drug costs -- get them into the old drug plan company - hate for you to lose money due to sloppy habits. Rhonda is off this week-- if you have questions -- get them answered asap next Monday.

WPC prices should better match
we have over ridden the JV billing schedule for World Pac and this should make it easier for you ( for all customers except retail customers using billing schedule #2 ). You should find all other billing schedule customers now match the web price to the j-Con price *** except*** guess there is always an except --- where WP have just changed a price in the last 45 days and our J-Con has NOT been updated with the monthly CD for data. Ties should go to the web based speedDIAL as being the one to use.
Remember that the 'wholesale' price is slide over to the RIGHT hand of the 2nd gen e-cat -the LIST and Cost show to the left.
We have reported this to Angela for her consideration to see if they want to correct all the standard billing schedule - this is a case of they didn't understand how speedDIAL and J-CON ( or exploris for that matter ) are connected.
You need to pull the number back into J-Con for retail sales and anyone with BS#2 accounts.
Another issue --we noticed that price field # 2 is very much screwed up in Canada ( but the couple of prices we checked on USA systems seem right ) --we have asked that this be corrected..
want test examples -- in descending order of being really screwed up ( full list available ) --so if you see something that is JUST HUGE price difference in BS#2 to another billing schedule -- use common sense until we can get this fixed.

2nd Gen e-cat for WP is here - have you tried it
This slipped by me - have you seen the update for the 2nd generation for WorldPac e-cat?
here is what they say it does:
Changes include
- Navigation in the Detail panel is improved
- Double appearance of Vehicle Search is fixed (certain key strokes while in Models field)
- Improved timing for Make field
- Keyboard focus problem resolved
To turn on your NEW version -- go to VIEW and preference pane - or there is a spot right on the main page.
Looks like your truly is the LAST person to know of this - no counter time and I guess it shows. Appreciate hearing your feedback on what you think of the improvements .... hint ... this is IMPORTANT ....hint .... for some future changes rolling down the pipe line.
the forum is also turned back on - we will hope it stays on -and some of the malcontents keep their beefs and cheap shots off the board --stay positive and work for change with enthusiasm & pride.
