I had a pleasant surprise today. I called M2M Support to request another change request to allow multiple bill to addresses for customers. Currently, as of Version 5.6, each customer could only have one bill to address. However, this creates problems when selling to very large companies. Typically, you end up [...]
For those that don’t know, the Favorites Bar is a M2M toolbar, which can be placed anywhere on the screen or docked in various places. It is a convenient way to bring up screens that you use often, and there is a real need for it. There is just one little problem. [...]
I received a question from a reader recently saying that his accounting person could not post transactions in M2M. They received the error message shown on the left.

As many of us know the functionality of M2M Expert has not been updated in a very long time. As I entered the version of M2M and tried to select a [...]
Just a quick post to let anyone know who might care that I’ve been dragged kicking and screaming into the world of Twitter. Well, not kicking actually just kind of shuffling… and not screaming exactly… just kind of whining.. but I digress.
I am of course Made2Mentor on Twitter and if [...]
In all versions before 2008, SQL Server only supported a DateTime data type, not separate Date or Time types. Therefore, every date field in M2M is actually DateTime, and this can be inconvenient for reporting. Your CEO typically doesn’t care what time an invoice was processed, only which day.
