Hi Joe,

Right, MLS packages up its data and uses Afaria to transmit/receive it, no?

That's right.

By the way, it's been one of my pet peeves since I started using MLS, but I
was wondering if I was the only one that thought that locking MLS and
preventing any further action during transmission was a poor design idea on
their part?

Good feedback. In general, making user interfaces concurrent result in
significant additional complexity, which in turn requires a good deal
of effort to engineer properly. I'll pass your feedback along. How
much of your time does this behavior wind up wasting?

Also, as finance clerk, I'm pretty good at making sure I transmit my changes
to SLC.  However, it often annoys me that instead of taking just a short
time to transmit my finances, I get a lot of membership updates, and have to
print out all those reports.  Sometimes I really wish that if a finance guy
transmits, only the finances are dealt with.  Likewise for membership I'm
sure.  (Although I doubt he ever gets finance reports)

Good feedback; I'll pass that along.

 My apologies for the tirade.  It's just something that has always bothered
me, and I can't explain why.

It's a separate thread to explore this topic, but of course we're all
very bothered by software that forces us to go through extra work to
accomplish repetitive tasks -- especially those of us who by our
natures try and be as efficient as possible.

Thanks,

Ben
