New Offers for the Month

Howdy all!

I just put out an update for the latest offers of the month all the way until May. It looks like I was late in getting the January offer, which is the Bible Teach book. I hope this didn't inconvenience anyone...

I've got a lot going on right now, so please, if I forget to put out an update for the Upcoming Offers in a timely manner, feel free to shoot me a friendly reminder e-mail. Also any recommendations or suggestions for improvement are always welcome. I may actually update LRO in the next month or two... ;-)

Hope all are well!

Literature Updates

Howdy all!

Been a long time since I put any kind of update. Don't worry, all is well with me and LRO. :-) Literature updates are for English and include:

• Item #9401 renamed to "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures--MP3"
• Item #5108 renamed to "New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures--With References"
• Item #9240 renamed to "Organized to Share Good News and Whole Association of Brothers--On DVD"
• NEW Item: #5810 - "Watch Tower Publications Index 2001-2010"

Also the latest Upcoming Offers are available for download:

• September (Primary offer) - What Does the Bible Really Teach?
• October (Secondary offer) - Would you Like to Know the Truth?
• November (Primary offer) - The Bible - What is its Message?

Version 1.4.1 Released!

Changes to Literature Room Organizer include:

• Added: The threshold for the "Suggestions on Stock Item Orders" report can now be set by the Type of Item, and is NOT limited to be "5, 10, or none". You can now specify any value you'd like.
• Added: For all "download update" features, there is now a mirror site for the updates. So if my primary site for deploying updates is down or otherwise unreachable, the mirror site will be used.
• Bug Fix: TLA import feature was not working.

Surprise! Got one more update to LRO. I thought it was important to change the "threshold" feature for Suggested Stock Item Orders so that it would be more flexible. You can access this new feature by visiting the "Literature Items List" screen and then going to "Type of Items list".

Here is where you set the threshold for each type of item. What this means, for example, is if you set the threshold for Tracts to 250, then whenever a particular tract in your current inventory quantity is below 250, that tract will show up on the Suggested Stock Item Orders report, regardless of how fast that tract is moving per month.

You will notice some default values there after you upgrade. You can change them as needed by your Kingdom Hall. The default values are based on the branch's recommendation for 1 congregation.
