Fishbowl Security Basics

Aaron Wignall, CISSPSeptember 28, 20119 Comments on Fishbowl Security Basics

Hello, Fishbowl Blog readers!  This is my first of, what I hope to be, many blog posts.  My name is Aaron Wignall, and I am the IT Manager at Fishbowl Inventory.  I’m somewhat of a unique IT Manager in that my training background is in Information Security, and not the nuts and bolts, necessarily, of IT.  In fact, I recently obtained my CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional) Certificate.  What I’d like to do with my blog posts is to pass on some of my security knowledge, especially as it pertains to using Fishbowl.  So please follow me and my posts here on the Fishbowl Inventory Blog!

Robert LockardSeptember 26, 2011Leave a Comment

Fishbowl is now offering a complete enterprise resource planning/material requirements planning (ERP/MRP) system to midsize businesses. It’s called Fishbowl Enterprise.

Often, companies grow to a point where their old accounting and inventory management tools don’t have enough features to meet their needs anymore. So they think the only option is to move to an expensive ERP/MRP system that they can barely afford. Now there’s a better solution. (more…)

Strong Manufacturing Numbers Soothe Recession Fears

Robert LockardSeptember 16, 20111 Comment on Strong Manufacturing Numbers Soothe Recession Fears

It looks like the United States may not be heading into a recession after all, according to a new manufacturing report. The Institute for Supply Management’s manufacturing index in August was 50.6. That’s down from July’s 50.9, but any number above 50 means manufacturing increased that month, so this is still good news. (more…)

Robert LockardSeptember 14, 20116 Comments on 10 Generic Foods That Taste Better Than Name Brands

Everything You’ve Heard About U.S. Manufacturing Is Wrong

Robert LockardSeptember 06, 2011Leave a Comment

Today I learned that pretty much everything we assume we know about American manufacturing is just plain wrong. The Industry Week article “Manufacturing at the Crossroads” dispels a lot of depressing rumors that have swirled around about the manufacturing industry for a long time.

I’ll condense the article’s main points into four myths about manufacturing, and then I’ll show how those myths are wrong with a healthy dose of reality. (more…)
