| Thought I would try this one more time. Currently if you use the price guide
to look at the value of parting out a set you get a figure for its value and
how many new lots will get added to your inventory.
We would like to see a simple little screen or report based result of the work
that Bricklink has done as far as determining which lots are the new one. This
helps us enormously in determining how we approach parting out.
Secondly and equally as important to us is the need to be able to follow the
value of the sets as they are parted out over time. So when the set was launched
it had a higher part out value than 6 months later, in some cases there are also
times when the set is much more valuable later on. This would help us as a store
to determine how long before we part out various sets that we have stock of.
At the moment we have a very crude offline system which gives us the result of
parting out at the date when we did it. Bricklink has all this data in its database
- surely we should be able to get at it as a valuable tool for the stores.
Remember without stores there would be no Bricklink !!! (I know the same applies
to buyers)

|
| For some time now we have had considerable difficulty in reconciling the fees
statement to our accounts system. The fees are always paid - there is no problem
there, but the fact that it is a summary rather than detail and the conversion
rates may or may not be different it makes it a job rather than just a quick
check.
We would like to see each store given the option to receive either the summary
or a detailed breakdown. The detailed breakdown should include each order the
store is being charged for the date and value of that order and the calculated
fee + currency conversion rate.
Those of us who do not deal in dollars would like that information available.
Those who don't require it can remain with the summary.
If the fees program is within the code for Bricklink, this should not be a complicated
change as it has all the info already. If it is in another system that would
have to be looked at but even today's most simple billing programs allow
for this type of information to be presented.

|
| Would like to suggest several improvements to the messaging system that Bricklink
uses.
1. Enable HTML Mail (rather than just plain text)
2. Allow attachments
3. Provide forward capability
4. Allow CC or BCC addressees
5. Provide default set up so we can have messages of all kinds sent to store
email address, rather than having to mark each individual message to be sent
to our e-mail address.
All of the above are capable within SQL mail but if they are difficult to implement,
consider changing the system - Mail/Messaging is a very valuable tool and in
today's business world we need to have a first class system. The current
system is very old, in many circumstances, not totally reliable and very restrictive.
It is time for change.
I am sure there are other capabilities that people want to see - feel free to
add them if you think this is a suggestion that should be carried forward.

| Author: | calsbricks | | Posted: | Aug 4, 2015 02:23 | | Subject: | Improvements to Feedback Summary Page | | Viewed: | 84 times | | Topic: | Suggestions | | Status: | Open | | Vote: | [Yes|No] | |
|
| Currently what you see is a summary of feedbacks received over weekly, monthly
and yearly columns as well as a breakdown of 'selling' and 'buying'.
We would like to see two additional columns added one for the number of purchase
orders and one for the number of sales orders.
This would allow an approximate percentage to be calculated for how high or low
the feedbacks to orders relationship is. We have guessed that it is somewhere
around the 60% figure over all - in other words you will get or give feedback
on 60% of your orders be they placed or received.
You can do this manually by going to the store and looking at the banner for
number of orders - but that is only for sales and it means changing between screens.
This would be a welcome and simple improvement to the summary page, which we
use all the time.

|
| We would like to suggest some changes to the orders pages, both printing and
downloading.
1. The current order printouts are taking up a lot of paper (and toner etc).
If I download the order into Brickstock for example I can reduce the number of
pages by 40 to 50% but I cannot get same sort order. Brickstock is severely limited
on its sorting capabilities at the moment. We have asked Patrick Brans to look
at this as a matter of urgency, but he seems to be quite tied up with his normal
job at present.
2. If we download the order from Bricklink to a spreadsheet file we lose the
images and the quantity remaining - and both of those fields are used in the
picking process - we do not want to lose them. We have tried all the different
download formats and none of them provide or bring either of the fie4lds with
them.
So the suggestions are:
1. Improve the order printing process and allow more flexibility in where we
place the columns etc. This can be done as Allan Smith has produced a great order
template for Brickstock which is how we have been able to reduce the number of
pages per order - we still get everything we had with the Bricklink Order printout
(Except quantity remaining)and it all fits on one A4 Portrait page much better
that the existing printout from Bricklink.
2. Give us a way to incorporate the image and quantity remaining fields and data
in the download capabilities.
Either of these 'solutions' will solve the problem, save money and time
on the printing side and be a significant improvement to the current process.
We are aware that some stores do not print their orders at all any more - they
simply work from a tablet or computer screen - but in our case this isn't
really possible - we need that picking list as our storage and distribution centre
is not in the same location as the rest of the order processing.
Neither of the above suggestions would take a great deal of coding changes and
we see them as an excellent improvement to the site.

|
| It would be very nice if we could actually filter this page. Things like lets
only see the feedback from a specific country or lets see the feedback as a buyer.
This would be helpful as it doesn't appear possible any other way at present.
We have had some new customers who have come from countries where we don't
normally receive orders and the customers are showing lower feedback than we
are comfortable with for fairly large orders.
Would be nice to see if anyone else, for example, in the UK has served these
customers, without having to scroll through the feedback until you either recognise
a store or look up each store.
The same also applies to buyers.
