Share Sales Items between Acct 2007 and Business Contact mgr
Marc McMillin 2/6/2007 5:08:00 PM
Seems VERY counter intuitive to allow Products and Services to be added to an
Opportunity in Business Contact Manager and then have the ability to convert
to a Quote, Sales Order or Invoice and have then come over as line item
COMMENTS.

This feature would be much better if these Items were part of the shared
database when BCM and Acct 2007 are "integrated"

Hi Marc.

This is indeed the case for Products and Services that were added thru the
BCM UI to the BCM Products and Services list. We are now looking at
improving this area for the next release and I will add this as a feature
request. Thanks for the feedback!

Please note that you can add products from Microsoft Office Acconting 2007
(under the "Items" list) and then import into BCM from the BCM Products and
Services dialog box. If you use these imported items in your opportunity and
then convert to a Quote, the items are populated as native MOA items and not
as comments.

Avihai.
