Justin, you just saved me from days of frustration with Acrobat Reader! Thank you very much. Every time I would try to close a pdf scan after doing an EOB it would freeze for about 15 secs. It was really slowing us down and not it is back to normal.

Gotcha. Yeah, they had a stern lecture at morning huddle today and they all signed off on the Time Clock rules. It's amazing that some of them still had the audacity to make some snide remarks over this. They don't understand that clocking in 10 mins. early every day for 5 days a week, multiplied by...

You would think that after having this software fro 2.5 years that I would have figured that out. I'll keep on learni...

I as well would like the opting to put an automated due date on bills. This way I could have it set up to make the due date 30 days from the date that the statement is printed. Is there an option for this that I am missing???
