Interesting question from someone from Unify. Look in your bug database for the known bug that Unify older versions can't join more that 5 tables. The look at all the complaints I made before you guys told me about it, because it is real easy to get more than 5 tables in any kind of inventory system. But I guess I'm the only one out here that has ever tried to make an inventory-tracking system under Unify.
