| This one has been around a long time and unfortunately nothing seems to be happening
with it.
Bricklink needs to change the way the login/accounts function works. As a medium
sized store with an owner and 3 employees we need to allow the employees to log
into Bricklink and update store inventory, prices etc almost every day and as
things currently stand they have to use the owners login details (Poor security).
SQL, which is used for the database has quite a good security system built in
so even if we went native with that, it would be better than the current situation.
The same thing applies for stores with multiple locations - we have two processing
centres - one where all of our Lego inventory is stored, picked etc and one where
orders are packed and shipped from. Hence we want to set up a shipping from address
and a shipping to address. The fact that not all stores support the alternate
address system on Bricklink, as it currently stands means the only real way to
do this is using alternates on Paypal (for those that use Paypal).
So in summary - multiple logins to the stores with security/control permissions
and a minimum of 2 address for each store - one for ship from and 1 for ship
to.
As an afterthought it might not be a bad idea to allow store owners to have two
accounts - one for buying and one for selling, with the appropriate feedback
associated with each function. This might make a difference as to how people
look at a situation - In our case we have over 800 buying feedback and over 2000
selling feedbacks.

|
| Have suggested this direct to Bricklink development and whilst the response has
been positive so far we are still waiting for either a confirmation that it will
become available (and when) or a reason why it cannot be done.
We have had good feedback from several of the UK's stores and wonder what
others around the globe feel.
This should give us the ability to deal with our inventories on a more accurate
basis and , if there are any gremlins in Bricklink's system, point them out.
Thoughts?

| 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)

Author: | calsbricks | Posted: | Oct 5, 2015 10:17 | Subject: | Change to the way Bricklink Present fees | Viewed: | 158 times | Topic: | Suggestions | Status: | Discarded | |
|
| 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.

Author: | calsbricks | Posted: | Sep 9, 2015 02:47 | Subject: | Improvements to Bricklink Messaging | Viewed: | 97 times | Topic: | Suggestions | Status: | Discarded | |
|
| 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.
