Performance improvements . . .
In addition to adding new functions to the system, we are also concerned with adding speed improvements wherever possible. Of course, the degree to which you see these type of
changes will be influenced somewhat by the type of computer (or computer network) you're using.
Invoicing . . . We've made some changes to the various Invoicing related functions (such as Add an Invoice Batch, Find a Delivery Batch, etc.) that should speed them up. Based
on our tests here at Columbus, you should realize a 40-50% improvement on a single machine and a bit less on a network.
Age Accounts . . . Last November we implemented changes that cut the time to age accounts rather significantly. We have now made further changes that should reduce
the time by a further 50% or more (a little less on a network). These were implemented in version 7.7.47.148 which is now available on our web site www.LynxPropaneSoftware.com.
By the way . . .
Copies of these Newsletters are now available in the Lynx Help System (beginning with version 3.30). If you haven't been receiving them or want to see a previous issue, go
to Help and, under the Index tab, key in "Newsletter". You can view them and/or print them out from there.
For your information, the latest version of the Lynx Help System is 4.2. It also is available from our web site as a separate download from the Lynx software.
