We are getting more outside vendors (3rd party solutions) trying to sell us block chain (blockchain) type technology. This is both on the inventory tracking side as well as the accounting side. Currently, it sounds good and cool but there are hidden costs and problems.

As a side note, we are also getting more pressure on servers and who has access to control what pieces. We are still bringing things up at AWS and Newtek. Both systems have a different structure. That is a challenge as well.

Another topic is dealing with API sockets and dealing in bulk sending and receiving data back and forth. The other circling topic is the need for customer rewards, loyalty points, and other special account stuff. The deeper we get, the more buried we seem to be. It almost seems perpetual and an ongoing mode of being buried. Thus is life.

On the adilas permissions (we have tons of them), we would really like to help that page with the look and feel as well as a copy user permissions and/or templates. We were also talking about a possible grouping of permissions and even a drill-down type interface for permissions, settings, and how each thing could be layered and/or navigated. The easy answer may be a simple copy a specific user's permissions. That could be the fastest option for helping out with permissions and setting up permissions for other users.

We had a discussion on the transferring of sub inventory and parent inventory. We have some clients that want to mix the locations on PO's, invoices, and quotes. It gets really crazy. They want to virtually skip the transfer step. Steve would like to maybe help them out by creating a new process that allows for bulk transfers. As an alternate option, Steve would like to potentially be a project manager for this project and work with Bryan on a new solution.

Spent some time reading over public records on blockchain. There are some advantages and a number of disadvantages. As of right now, we will continue with what we have going on and working on a digital assembly line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain
