Good afternoon,
I hope your Thanksgiving was enjoyable, and filling! Now that it's behind us, and you've had another opportunity to reflect on an annual meal that garners so much attention, what did you enjoy the most - the turkey or the sides? Even though I love me some turkey, we're offering up a feature story that is all about the sides. It's a review of our Eclipse Tips from this year. If you want to read some helpful reminders about working in the system, or simply figure out what the heck kind of harebrained analogy I'm talking about, check it out. Also, we review a great article on profitability and inventory management, and tell you how it applies to Eclipse. And, we wouldn't want you to miss out on a free offer to jump start your E.Z. Support program today, so be sure to look at this month's special. Talk soon!

The menu includes !NOBO casserole, decimal soup, vendor maintenance with gravy, backorder stuffing, and more. Find out why we're reviewing this year's Eclipse tips and eat 'em up by READING MORE …
