Hi Jason,

I cannot speak to R&D priorities and certainly there is no lack of suggestions for new fields for Inventory Control. The problem is usually that people don't just want new fields added to the database, they want to be able to do things with the new data elements - have them appear on a report or form for example. Also, the usual R&D cycle for a packaged software product is measured in months and sometimes years, and modification requests in this forum are usually looking at a shorter timeframe.

Here is a GridView Workspace and Excel spreadsheet that demonstrates this with the sample data. One View is into the Item master, the other is the Excel sheet with extra fields. Each View highlights missing (or extra) records in red.

I post it just as a simple example of what might be accomplished in case it is useful for others.
