I am i looking to purchase framing software and am looking for a fairly simple program...preferably "invoice" ONLY...NO "WORKORDER", "WORKSHEETS", ETC. I downloaded the trial version of EZ Framer (the simplest program out of the two) but i find it takes a while to complete an order from START to PRINT OUT INVOICE. Am I judging this wrong? What is your opinion? What are the best programs out there. My main concern is to be able to print out an invoice having 28+ lines with an itemized price list. I had a program designed for me about 12 years ago, and have liked it ever since....the problem is it runs on DOS and is really outdated. The person that designed the program is retired and no longer designs programs. Thanks for any info.
 
Dear FrameIt: you don't have any info in your profile nor an e-mail address. If you will e-mail me, I'll give you some info on EZFramer: it's the program I use.

Check out Artisan Frame Shop.

I believe this program has the ability to print out what you want. One does not have to print out a full work order form -- you could customize what out of a work order you would want printed. Their sample forms may not work for you, but they may be fairly easy to customize, depending on what your specifications are.

There is also a light version which is very economical and may do most, if not all, you are looking for.
 
I have been using this program for a couple weeks. I have just changed from FullCalc. I have used FullCalc for about 7 years. I am really likeing the EZ-Framer program. You can print just the work order if that is all you want. You cant print an invoice with the work order also. I wanted something fairly easy to use and I am finding it meets my needs nicely. I also feel like Frank is really trying to give customer service. I looked at one program and called about it. The guy told me I needed some good computer courses. I knew right that moment that he wasn't going to be giving much in customer service. I had downloaded his program and couldn't open it to look at it. Didn't call him back either.

I really recommend you call Frank and talk to him. I think you will find it meets your needs nicely. Tell him you heard it on the grumble too. I have been telling him about this site. :D
 
I just reread your post, yes, you can print just an invoice if that is what you want. Look down on the bottom of the order page just left of center. There is an "Activities List". Click on that and you will have an invoice option. Click on the invoice. That will bring up a full page of the invoice. Then up at the top of the page, again it will be just left of the center, there is a big red 1 or an X. I think it is 1 (don't have my program here). Click on the 1 and that will print. Then go to the right on the other big red something and it will exit that page and take you back to your order page. Very easy.
