NeoMallers Portal 10: Final Thoughts?

Submitted by saudor on Fri, 30/07/2010 - 5:15pm
the final version of NeoMallers Portal Pro (Software Edition) is under way and expected to be released in the upcoming days. (yes, it's being simultaneously developed with Analyst, which is the web version) Since i'm working on it anyways, any icky stuff you want to see in there? (no huge stuff please) [b]Enhancements in version 10.0[/b] - new streamlined interface - performance improvements in shop stock. (shop stock ranking processor bumped from 65-70 items per second to roughly 7700-18,885 items per second on my database) - Export and maybe import from Analyst - Shop stock improvement: selecting the comment area no longer highlights the whole damn thing - Update check disabled by default. - fixed the item sold today bug - overall (front screen) now actually shows unique stock, qty items in stock, value and the last update of the shop front - Im lazy feature in shop front setting now saved. - Sorting of shop stock by either alpha, or by wiz/mall price (As suggested by leelo513) Mall and Wiz price can be toggled by double clicking the label as opposed to the checkbox itself. [b]****** Beta 4 is now available. *********[/b] http://neomallers.com/downloads/portal10b4.exe [b]New features: [/b] Beta 4: double clicking an item in filtered mode (out of stock) now defaults to the in stock warn value (vs -1) - Right click action will initiate the -1 effect (to mark it as skipped) - Shop Front Cost added to main screen (Thanks zixianna!) - sales history "went out of stock" bug fixed. Note: Don't forget to backup your current installation/files just in case. (Just copy the entire folder some place else)

Ooh ooh! How about adding in one more stat in that same place - Costs of current stock. Then you can see your 'overall markup' as well (or work out bulk book deals *lol*) Is it possible to do the same types of a statistic with a DB Search as well? i.e. - Show value and cost of all stock that has never sold, etc?

An option to submit the shop front, and have it update all stock as normal, except for books that were removed from the 'out of stock' list (so you can make sure the stock in Portal matches your shop, but allows you to continue stocking from wherever you already left off on the list (while at the same time putting new 'out of stock' items in the list, as it normally does).

Dont expect alot of improvements here since Microsoft announced that windows 8 wouldnt even support vb6 apps. And windows 8 is coming soon so this will be 100% useless soon. The new generation is the Analyst and there's where my focus will go ----------------------------- [color=purple]Contrary to popular belief, the Irish and I are not married[/color]

I know, I'm just throwing out ideas that I would find useful at this point. Even if things don't get added into this, they can be ideas for the new version. Also, since I don't know how you have anything implemented really, things like that search might be easy, or might not be.

Puh-lease, I'm still running Vista. By the time I get a new laptop it'll be Windows 11 *yarr*

I want to know how much I spent on my stock and what the profit percentage would be overall. I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard to implement. If you're not updating Portal anymore I'd love to see it in the Analyst. *hint* ;)

[quote=zixianna] [quote=saudor]haha not gonna put those graphs in. [/quote] [quote=angel_shortcake]Would love to see a visits graph![/quote] *LOL*[/quote] I would still love to see it! haha. Maybe if he saw enough interest, it'd change his mind :P [quote=mizleah][quote=zixianna]Ooh ooh! How about adding in one more stat in that same place - Costs of current stock.

[center] [font=verdana] I don't know if this is available yet, but I haven't found it in the portal. Do you think it would be possible to view your stock by sell price instead of alphabetical order? Like to have an option for it? -------------------- http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=leelo513&misc [/font] [/center]
