One of the coolest apps I ever worked on was a routine to allow a homebuilder's project managers to walk through the subdivision with a subcontractor, and for each house, click radio buttons that defined the percentage of completion for that subcontractor.

When the project manager later replicated his laptop, the completion data flowed back to the iSeries and into the Accounts Payable system, and generated an open payable transaction for that sub. Since homebuilders sub almost everything out, the app took a huge load off the shoulders of the payables staff.

In the form of the Open Source Word Processer included with Notes !!

I miss the days of Notes/Domino programming.

I lost the Notes/Domino battle when my employees revolted in 2007 😊

Everybody loves Outlook.

Do not resurrect OfficeVision.............................. 😊

It's all part of the glorious return of OfficeVision/400, of course.
