I have now been using Version 6 for a long time and was one of the first users of Version 5 - the HM things are difficult now matter how you do them, I really think all in all many of the new features are good - I think the great thing is that Jon is trying to make things better. I have talked with programmers and Jon at AC and they are genuinely interested and trying to improve things.
I personnally have no problems with orders - reconciliation is a pain and does not work well. I have been using the orders section for so long that it really does work okay.
