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.
