    Go crazy?

    Don't mind if I do!!!

    Am I crazy, or am I the sanest one here?

    False dichotomy, I'm afraid.

    The user will navigate to the Billing tab and as the page loads, “something” will “do something” to determine if the invoice is available for viewing. If it is available for viewing, then “something” will be available for the user to click on to display the invoice.

    Would you, at a high level, know what those somethings are?

    Let's see. At a hight level:
    The user will navigate to the Billing tab and as the page loads, the server will check some data to determine if the invoice is available for viewing. If it is available for viewing, then the web page that was loading will be available for the user to click on to display the invoice.
    Thank you Captain Obvious for spoiling the fun.
    Hey! u're not me!

    Dick!

    You are not me either.

    But let me help you out.

    Corporal Punishment! Get your ass here! On the double!

    • Yessir, captain, sir! Cut the crap. Dick, a civilian here requires your assistance. Help this... "ideo" any way you can. Within reason, of course.

    Here you go.

    i think vincent is the contractor and jeff is zach's boss. vincent asked jeff for help defining requirements for the invoice presentment feature on the portal. jeff forwarded the request to zach. zach senses he's getting sucked into the project so he's creating an estimate to show how much time will be needed from him so jeff will know the true cost of hiring the contractor.

    Hell; that looks like the first cut at a "requirements doc" for 90% of the projects I work on.

    It looks like the Final cut "requirements doc" where I am.

    Ahh, mad lib specs are fun!

    as the page loads, "a midget who happens to be the prince of a European nation" will “do a voodoo spell” to determine if the invoice is available for viewing. If it is available for viewing, then “a physical gong made of 24 karat gold” will be available for the user to click on

    Ha! Nice reference.

    What was missing was a relationship with the decision makers. Obviously the vendor understood what buttons to push and gave the decision makers what they wanted. Too many people work waste time working under the illusion that decisions are based upon rationale and objective thinking - it's seldom the case
