Hello All,
To me, one of the most annoying things in Ebase is the extra screens in between
History and Entry for most of the related files. For example, with Payments, you have
Payment History (which is in Names), and when you click on View Payment, you go to the
View Payments screen (which is in Payments), which is the one with the three columns
for Dues, Contrib, etc. But you still can't edit a payment from here or see many of
the fields, you gotta click View Pmt Entry. Personally, I find the "middleman screen"
to be completely extraneous and confusing to almost every new user. (At least with
Payments, you get the three columns, but for other files I can't see any point.) Why
not go directly from history to the individual payments? I have cut these screens out
of several of the customizations I've done.
But I'm curious as to what I'm missing. Do any of you find these in-between screens
helpful in any way? Can anyone come up with a reason why you (personally) wouldn't
want them removed?
TIA,
Matthew
