Success output message for new command

[rismm]

Showing the user the PID of a newly added product after a successful addition could be helpful instead of the user having to use another command to find the PID of the newly added product item.

Team's Response

This is not a huge issue because:

• the user most likely does not need the PID of the product immediately

• the user can easily use the list or find command to find, which is a very fast step and does not add significant weight to the usage process

Still, this might be a potential implementation after v2.1 when gathering further user feedbacks.

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: I believe the severity of the issue already reflects that it is not a huge issue, but I would have to disagree that the issue is not in scope as I feel that it is quite relevant to the features in the program currently.

Regarding your first point, I would say that you shouldn't disregard some situations where the user might need it immediately. Take these situations for example:

• What if the user realized that he had made a typo after adding the product into the program when entering his parameters?
• What if the user wanted to add a description to his product but he forgot to enter it?

In order to make adjustments right after, the user would need to know the product's PID, and it would have been helpful if the output message shows the PID of the newly added item. From a user standpoint, having the output message tell me the PID of the newly added item would improve the user experience of using StockPal. Sure, using the list and find commands to look up the product's PID is a fast step, but wouldn't it have been better if I did not need to do that?
