I think a great feature would be to add the ability for users (other than the super user) to see the sales charts on the dashboard - instead of the message telling them that their account is limited. I've never understood why that message appears even if you give a user all available permissions. When I create an account for a new employee, I don't want them to see a message every time they log in telling them they their account has limited rights and to contact me if this is incorrect. I think the user's should see new orders, sales charts, help desk requests, etc. How about adding this on the next service pack?

Thanks,

Rodney

There is a coding workaround to this. I can't find it in my notes at the moment, but someone from this forum sent it to us, and it worked great. Now all our users can see the charts when they log in.

I admit, it would be nice as a simple built-in feature, rather than requiring knowing secret codes!

That would be great if you could find that. Please post it if you do. Seems that EI Techs would have a simple solution. Wish that someone from EI would respond.

Thanks,

Seems this is worth putting up on the Developers' Corner part of the wiki.

I'll try to get to it if Hamish doesn't get to it first.
