Slingshot announces the ability to create search formulas for filtering on all search forms. Search formulas allow the user to select a set of records by specifying filtering criteria at the top of the form.
Slingshot has announced support for “horizontal scalability” and failover support. These changes will be part of release G2-7 scheduled for completion in November. The new infrastructure provides an enterprise scale for all Slingshot applications.
Release G2-6.0 is now available. This release includes 72 enhancements. Here are a few of the highlights:
Slingshot has long supported corporate credit cards as a payment method. Corporate credit cards reduce transactional costs by taking the purchasing department out of the loop. Payments are consolidated by bank or payment processor (typically one check per month), a further savings. The use of PCards comes with tradeoffs. Less review prior to purchase introduces some risk.
Slingshot announces a new “self service” requisition entry process for its eRequest product. Its familiar interface allows users to quickly and conveniently request material or services with no training.
