Upgrading discussions that began earlier were concluded with two Printwiser clients, awaiting their final orders. A presentation of new or optional features was given for one of the clients. The Printwiser (Estimating) Features page for our website was finalized, while some other pages got revised. Finally, we began working on the next Printwiser Estimating v11.0 revision, first making estimate group optionally accessible on the Estimate Form, then adjusting the Option menu to show if the Business Forms feature was installed.

On August 1, SFI President Gery Carson had announced the “merger” of SFI with GreatLife Worldwide. This in essence meant managing affiliates had ended at SFI, and affiliates were advised to go join GreatLife, paying for the first month of membership with Rewardicals. However, life still goes on, for those not keen on joining GreatLife. The SFI website still comes up, though without all the bells and whistles it used to have. The Games Division, Eager Zebra on TripleClicks, is still very much active, allowing members to generate Rewardicals. Once the Rewardicals hit 52,500 you can then turn them into $35 worth of Bitcoin. The following are my selected activities since August.

Two-day introductory Printwiser Estimating training for two employees of GlobalPlus Publishing Ltd kicked off in Lagos. The course covered the Printwiser software environment, estimate entry, calculations and comprehensive reports generation, as well as issuing data retrieval queries. Continuing from last month, further technical support was provided for another Printwiser client on the feature of switching databases in the latest version 10.5. This included the creation of the initial version of a database update utility program to apply an SQL script against two databases. The client then further requested the optional Quotation Request option of Printwiser Estimating, and areas of customization were discussed.

The HIDDEN Form in Gerian was revised to work better with small screens, of less than 768px height, with the Tool menu getting a new option. Discussion was concluded with a Printwiser client for the training of two users on the Estimating module, coming up in October. Technical support was provided for a Printwiser user on the feature of switching databases in the latest version 10.5. Support work was also done on MoneyBooks modules—Sales, Payroll, Accounts Payable. In MoneyBooks Sales, non-display of signatures on the quotation report in an installation was resolved, while transaction posting issues were addressed in the other two modules.

SFI has merged with GreatLife

On August 1, 2025, SFI President Gery Carson announced a merger with GreatLife as the final end of SFI affiliate management activities. This came as a big surprise. Affiliates were advised to join GreatLife, paying for the first month’s membership costing $49 with 19,000 Rewardicals. Although claiming to be too old at 64 years to continue managing SFI affiliates, Mr Carson did say that Eager Zebra Games (TripleClicks.com) and Rewardical.com would still be managed by him. Three new ZCredit packs were introduced in place of the former FDM memberships. So what exactly did he mean by “merger?”

The Payroll, Sales, AP modules got their first 2025 builds, with the Sales featuring a new multi-addressing option, while the GL got a new Petty Cash Actual List. On request, some work was also done on Google Maps editing, and online voting.

Technical support was provided for a Printwiser client, while work began on a new estimating software in connection with another client request. MoneyBooks General Ledger v3.51 and Gerian Assistant v1.7 upgrades were created. For MoneyBooks GL, transaction importing from another database for a linked account was boosted with speed enhancements using a reference table. We implemented Card King win data entry features in Gerian—the Card King Win List and Card King Bonus Spin Win List—with automatic record counting and totaling features. The inquiry made by a prospect in New Zealand on our MR-Payroll for FrontAccounting was worked on, the module being installed and tested on the required FrontAccounting 2.3.19 version at our website.
