We are using GP PA to track all of our hotel installs. One really time consuming "work around" we are experiencing is that we are having to use SOP Orders to fulfill parts and assets that are needed for the installs. By using sales orders we allocate the inventory items to a customer and then are able to fulfill it and ship the parts to the hotel for install. Then the order is transfered to an invoice in order to bill a hotel for the parts. This requires a great deal of management because there is no way to tie this process to the project (no link between the SOP module and PA). PA Inventory Transfers are the only option but again they don't give us the ability to manage the allocating of the parts to the projects.
Has anyone use a 3rd party product or found a viable work around for this issue? I inquired a bit about the Wennsoft Job Cost product but I prefer to keep the GP PA solution due to all the time and training invested in making it work (well work but in a way that requires excess work that is).

Another 3rd party option for you which is very cost effective is www.shiningbrow.com. Check it out.
We are a WennSoft partner and I would be happy to discuss pricing with you. I can be reached @ 207.761.2133 x202. Also, more importantly, perhaps we can discuss your particular needs, whether we think WennSoft really IS a good fit for you and then provide a product demo.
Let me know.
Sincerely,

I leave pricing to others but I believe they will provide a test version against Fabrikam or 30 day eval keys.
Call them.
Thanks for the reply gents. Do you know what the pricing model is for the WENNSOFT solution (in general of course) and also the best way to replicate our needs and test to see if they are a viable solution?
I'll second Richard's comments. You'd be much happier with Wennsoft in the long run.
Any third party is going to involve changeing the PA software. WennSoft is a great solution!
