A/P due date when the invoice is dated 2/29/24
Elliott is not correctly figuring the A/P due dates when the invoice is dated 2/29/24. It is figuring the due date as though the invoice was dated 3/1/24 so we would essentially pay a day late.
After investigate further, this only happen on 2/29/24. If the invoice date is 2/28/24 or 3/1/24, it calculates correctly with consider the leap year. Therefore, this problem is only comes every 4 years and is off by one day. Therefore, this is not a critical issue at this moment.
We are documenting this issue for now and may look into this issue in the…

Plus WO - Alert when production causes negative quantity on hand.
I suggest to add a Production Qty event where admin users can subscribe. When the scanned qty is going to cause the qty on hand become negative, send an email to admin users if they subscribe to this event. Maybe we can do it in addition to Plus WO for Material and Legacy as well. This is to tell the admin that there’s inventory problem and he/she should address it. In the meantime, we do not stop the production. To avoid complicate programming issue, I suggest to trigger this event at time of posting production transaction. My thinking is this…

Purchase Order Inquiry functionality
In Purchase Order Inquiry, it would be nice to have a sort function to sort up, down, or by date. F1 allows page-down, but there's no page-up, so if you go past the order in question, you have to start over.

WO Plus - Warning / Error if item is issued to WIP and not enough quantity
This idea is to prevent user's mistake instead of allowing the mistake and spend the time to fix it. We want to have the option not to allow to issue to WIP if there is not enough quantity.

ARN CSV Import to Support Multiple PO Numbers
The current ARN CSV Import will allow download CSV files from the trading partners for routing information. See KB article: https://support.elliott.com/knowledgebase/articles/1958971-feature-amazon-routing-number-arn-asn-label
In this utility, the CSV PO column sometimes can contain multiple PO numbers separated by coma, like "1234567890,1234567891,1234567891". At the moment, Elliott AR CSV Import only support a single PO number at the moment.
It will be very helpful if ARN CSV Import can support multiple PO number.

Add data fields to reorder advice/user defined csv
Please add fields for current and prior periods to the reorder advice/user defined csv:
quantity on hand, inventory dollar value, on order quantity, on order dollar value
It is visible in item file trx detail so I'm hoping it can be made available. This would be very helpful for purchasing reports.6 votes -
Plus WO - Allow to create shortage after the intial issue to WIP
If user issue material to WIP by mistake, then fix the mistake by reporting a negative quantity, it is not possible to create a shortage. I assume that there should be Fkey to indicate that the zero means to create a shortage. The item highligted in the picture was issued to wip by mistake, the transaction was reversed but it is not possible to mark it as Shotrage.

Give Warning on Sales Order Import when Ship-To File's Address Is Different from Sales Order ASCII File
It has come to our notice that in some situations, the trading partner can provide a store number with the ship-to address and flag the order as drop-ship. When it is drop ship, ESS will map the ship-to address. The provided ship-to address in sales order will override the address in ship-to file for the store. This can be potentially problematic.
We suggest that a trading partner flag be added "Warning if Import Ship-To Address Is Different?" Default is "Y". We should also support an event for this condition. In some situation, there are certain trading partner use a special…

Add "Print on AP Check Stub" as a Notetype option or extended voucher reference
Often the Reference field #15 in AP voucher creation is not long enough for all the information needed which results in having to add hand written details on a check stub.
The suggestion is to
1) either add a notetype option to print on check stubs so that a note can be added to a voucher, or2) Add an extended Reference field to the voucher which will automatically print on the checks.

Please add logging to track hold-trx activity
Please add logging to track hold-trx activity or add separate permissions for access to add, change, delete - especially for other users' hold-trx.

Check if Work Order Operation Has Shortage Before Allowing to Close the Operation
A user reported a scenario that they have been picking parts real time and creating shortage reports. However, they discovered that some of the work orders were getting closed without OP10 being complete. The allocation goes away but inventory isn't reduced for any short parts. In a perfect world they would be caught up with their inventory transactions, and user should check any shortage components before complete last operation.
So it is suggested that Elliott should check if the work order operation has any shortage and stop the work order from close OP20 before OP10 parts are complete.

Automatic logout Elliott at certain time at night
A user asked the following "I am trying to crack down on the users that don’t log out because it is a real problem here. Most people have complied since my email reminder on Monday about being a good “Elliott citizen”, but I have three computers that aren’t assigned to anyone but rather placed around the production area for the production staff to clock in/out on work orders. Generally the supervisors leave about 5-10 minutes before employees because they arrived early to open up the shop and we are trying to avoid daily OT for them. So there is really…

This project is not trivial. But we think it can be a useful features to prevent users open up files over night that cause backup issue. At the moment, we are placing this as a somewhat low priority item for 8.6. So do not expect an update with this new feature in the near future.
We are evaluating it to allow users to set policy on a workstation by workstation basis for "Auto Logout Time" in Setup area. You could set a workstation to, say, logout at 21:00 every night. The setting will be saved to local registry. Hence you need to set this up on a workstation by workstation basis unless you add group policy.

Payment Reference Information - PO Number Missing
It occurs often that the PO Number is missing from the payment reference information.
The reference field is in Elliott billing screen. While the default format of reference field is PO# + Order#, we support user to override the reference field in order billing screen. So let’s consider a scenario as following:
- When a sales order is first entered. There’s no PO#.
- User access the billing screen. The reference field is being populated as “PO# blank + Order# XXXXXX”.
- User later on change the PO# in the order header.
- User may or may not go to the billing screen again.…

Add a Trading Partner Flag to Prevent Adding Line Items to EDI Order
In many situations, it can be problematic when user add line items to an existing EDI orders that come through the Sales Order import. This is because the line items can have attributes, sometimes notes that are needed to send back with the outgoing EDI document (e.g. 856, 810).
On the other hand, in some exception scenario, certain trading partners may place phone orders and require to send 810 invoice EDI document.
To handle this, we should add an EDI partner flag "Prevent Adding Line Items for EDI Orders?" The default is "Y". But with some EDI partners who place…

Show total Lot Quantities on Serial Lot Stock Status Report
I think it will be nice to show the total quantity on the Serial Lot Stock status. It is helpful information. Also, it is easier to analyze the warning in case the total lot quantity is not the same as the stock status. In the case there is a warning that the Lot quantity is not the same as the stock status, show the stock status quantity.
