Hi, It's great to see industry news to be working and with news related to where you are working.

I've started to populate the suppliers module but I have a real issue with "Account Manager" which is a drop down list of people (which is naturally my own staff database). Why should I have to record firms' account managers in my database to allow this selection? This would appear...
