Announcing Founder Barney Stone’s New Advance Order Screen

Automation, eCommerce, Monsoon Stone Edge Order Manager Add-Ons, QuickBooks
As most of you are aware, I've known Barney Stone since StoneEdge hit the market.  I've been supporting StoneEdge users since the very first Yahoo store owner wanted to integrate QuickBooks with StoneEdge way back in the late 90’s (Wow – how time flies :-) ).  With the recent migration from the 5.9 series to the new 7 series of SEOM many of you have been frustrated with the new user interface; and in particular the order screen; so Barney developed a new view!  You know it will work; who better than Barney to develop it!

Why I Recommend SuperManager

Integration, Order Importers, Order Managers, QuickBooks, QuickBooks 3rd Party Add-Ons, SuperManager, Yahoo Stores
When I started working with Yahoo! Store owners there really wasn't a good way to import orders into QuickBooks®.
