==Description==
==Description==
This program helps you to manage your shopping list. You enter items only once (automatically growing a complete list of your recurring shopping items) and then you can use them each time you plan your shopping tour with just a simple tap. While shopping, another simple tap checks the item you just put in your cart. When you are paying for your items, you can also do a checkout in the program. Items are sorted automatically to optimize planning and shopping.
This program helps you to manage your shopping list. It is easy to use (even with one hand) but very powerful. You enter items only once (automatically growing a complete list of your recurring shopping items). They can be reused each time you plan your shopping tour with just a simple tap. While shopping, another simple tap checks the item that you just put in your cart. When you are paying for your items, you can also do a checkout in the program. Items are sorted automatically to optimize planning and shopping.


You can define Shops and Categories to choose from for your items. Also, you can enter name, quantity, unit, price, aisle, notes, tax, priority and coupon.
You can define shops and categories to choose from for your items. You can also assign alternative (multiple) shops and virtual categories (like templates) to the items. Each item has the properties name, quantity, standard quantity, unit, price, aisle, notes, tax, priority and coupon.


Items can be imported from text files or clipboard and exported to the clipboard or as email. You can also send the list by email or SMS.
Items can be imported from text files (.csv) or clipboard and exported to the clipboard or as Email. You can also send a nice list by Email or SMS.


The item list can be configured to display more or less details, display text in different colors and font sizes, use complex sorting and more. You can filter the list by Shop, Category and search in the item names. The cost for your shopping tour is being calculated automatically.

If you know HandyShopper on PalmOS, you should have no problems using Shopping Manager for webOS.
You can define as many databases as you wish and easily switch between them and copy/move items to other databases.

In All mode, you see all kinds of items (default, needed, checked). This is the mode, where you plan your shopping. The items are sorted by name by default (you can change that). The header info displays the number of needed/visible items and the total price of needed items. You can always filter the view with the Shops and/or Category selector in the header or by typing some letters.

Import always works on the current database. You can import items from a text file or from the clipboard. The requirement is that you have each item on a separate line like this:

Import will use the current Shop and/or Category for the imported items. When you choose "ALL SHOPS" and/or "ALL CAT." then the Shop and/or Category for the imported items will be set automatically. That means, if the import data contains values for the Shop and/or Category then these values will be taken. If not, in case of an update the old value will remain unchanged or in case of an insert the default value will be used.

Handling of special cases is compatible with Excel. If you want to have the separator char inside a field or a line feed or a quotation mark, then you have to write the complete field in quotation marks and quotation marks inside the field have to be doubled. For example, if you want to import a note field with this content:

For example, if you want to import a note field with this content:

  "this is;some ""strange""
  "this is;some ""strange""
  text"

If you are importing an item, that already is in the current database and the shop or category in the import data is different than in the database, it will be treated as alternative shop or virtual category. In this case all fields are being ignored that are irrelevant for an alternative shop (everything besides shop, price and aisle) or virtual category (everything besides category).

HandyShopper's export format is not well structured and is missing some things, for example categories. So, to get most of your data exported, you would have to use an extra tool named [http://www.rmobile.ca/subpages/hs2edit.html HS2Edit]. This Excel extension reads the .pdb file from HandyShopper and lets you create a .csv file. You just have to make sure, that the file meets the specifications (field order) listed above.

===About===

This shows you information about the program.
This shows you information about the program.
==Multiple databases==
You can have as many databases as you wish. Each database has its own items, shops, categories and preferences. Initially, there is only the '''Standard''' database. You can see the current database in the database menu ('''DB: Name'''). Tapping on that takes you to the Databases View (see below), where you can switch to another database and also create, delete and clear databases.
You can copy or move items from the current database to another database with the '''i''' menu of an item or with the corresponding Action to do multiple items at once. Alternative shops and virtual categories are also being copied to the destination database. Shops and categories are being created in the destination database, if necessary. If the item already exists in the destination database, the new item will be renamed to '''Itemname - 2''' and so on. The destination database can also be the current database.
==Alternative shops==
An item has always a base shop with price and aisle. You can add multiple alternative shops to each item. For each alternative shop, you can choose to use the base price or aisle or you can define its own price or aisle. When you filter by All Shops in the Main View, the shop with the best price will be displayed for each item.
You can assign alternative shops to an item in the Edit Item View and Alternative Shop View or with the corresponding Action. But the Action can not specify price or aisle for an alternative shop.
==Virtual categories==
An item has always a base category. You can add multiple virtual categories to each item. You can use virtual categories to group items, or you can see it as template. For example, you can have a category "Pizza" and assign it to tomatos, mushrooms, etc. Then, when you plan your shopping and want to buy stuff for Pizza, you filter by Pizza and mark all as needed. Virtual categories will not be displayed in the item details on the Main View. There you will always see the base category.
You can assign virtual categories to an item in the Edit Item View and Virtual Category View or with the corresponding Action.

==Databases View==
[[Image:shoppingmanager_databases_en_120.png]]
 
You get to the Databases View by selecting the '''DB: Name''' menu item in the Main View. Here you see a list of all your databases and the number of items they contain. The current active database is green.
 
Tap on '''+''' to add a new database. Tap on a database to switch to that database. Tap on the '''i''' to rename a database or clear it, which means deleting all items, shops and categories (so please be careful with that).
 
Swipe a database to the left or right to delete the entire database. You cannot delete the '''Standard''' database.
 
In the menu, you can delete '''all of your databases''' at once by selecting '''Recreate complete database''', bringing Shopping Manager back to the state of a fresh install. Please be extra careful with that!
 
Also, if you think your items list has a problem, you can rewrite all items by choosing '''Fix Items''' in the menu. But we advice, that you contact us first, if you think there is a problem.
