Yup, they added sales. But the upgrade is still a friggin' disaster. Just set up two books and had some bad word moments because it was designed by people who have no idea how end users think. Some things that were intuitive no longer are. Some things are so badly designed that if you don't follow a precise input path - which isn't the simplest or most common sense one - you get error messages.
I used to be an IT executive before becoming a full-time writer, and I give this upgrade a big stinking "F". If one of my teams put something like that in production, I'd be having a few choice words with them.
Either some genius developer came up with this on his/her own (and 80% of code monkeys are useless to begin with) or the business analysts working this project didn't develop any use cases, meaning they're equally useless. The previous design worked. Yes, it was clunky in spots, but it worked. This design doesn't work as well, it's clunkier, and the idiots actually lost data during the data conversion, which is not just a fail but cause for dismissal in any sane IT organization.
I sent IS an email with some very direct observations a few days ago. I hope it reached the CIO's desk.
